You’re right, it was more ambiguous, but only in context. Hard to do a more fervent nazi salute than Musk without being Hitler himself. I have a fear that conservatives are just going to start doing half-assed salutes everywhere and going “Musk isn’t a nazi, you’ll just call anything a nazi salute”

I hate dictator Trump as much as the next guy, but what he’s saying here is ‘they rigged the election in 2020, but now that means I get to host the Olympics during this term’. He’s just keeping up the lie about how he lost to Biden

I mean have you SEEN Astarion? I’m not straight enough to say no to that!

Pricing is definitely GPD’s issue, but yes hardware issues as well. I have a Win Max 2, and it was neat at the time, but it costs way more than a Steamdeck and really isn’t as powerful. When you play a game on it it runs so hot and the fans are like a jet engine. I pretty much use it as tiny laptop these days and use the Steamdeck for any real handheld gaming.

Hey all you goth gamers out there

Sadly this is probably impossible at this point. Before their whole fiasco discontinuing the desktop app there was a procedure I did where I was able to download a super old version of the desktop app and use Chrome to get into the dev interface (or something like that) of the app, then use a script someone made to export everything. Maybe if you search around you can find some way to do this with the mobile app, but I am not optimistic.

This is funny, but I think stereotypical vampire lore still stands. I think it’s only direct sunlight that is an issue. If a vampire stands in a room with an open window, but off to the side, they’re generally considered fine. If light reflected off a wall is ok then why is the moon not?

I actually agree, I own my computer / OS and I should be able to do what you’re saying (install and break things). But Microsoft is a trillion dollar multi national corporation and I am certainly going to give them grief about this because I owe them less than nothing, let alone any good will.

I’m sorry, but I think I disagree. I interpreted your point as “Employers care, you just have to hold them accountable”. I don’t think that is the attitude of companies who want to do things the right way. If workers have more rights than they know, and employers are aware of it, then I do not think that’s an mistake, that’s exploitation.

DO most employers want to get this right? Based on the fact that wage theft is the largest form of theft even with everything else combined, I think that’s either a lie or a stupid thing to say.

Also, I just don’t understand under what circumstances anyone should be exempt from overtime. Is there some group of people who are less deserving of getting paid for their time that I am unaware of? Even (shudder) managers should probably get paid.

I believe this does not work for Home. You can bypass it in Pro like this though. Unless something has changed I am not aware of.

One of my favorite authors, Mark Lawrence, has this and he does just fine. Funnily he seems to straddle the line of creative / technical since he was a scientist before becoming an author. It’s interesting, but like the article says it’s not a disorder. Just a different way the brain can work.

Red Sister by Mark Lawrence. A series described inaccurately, but amusingly, as about “lesbian murder nuns”.

“It is important, when killing a nun, to ensure that you bring an army of sufficient size. For Sister Thorn of the Sweet Mercy Convent Lano Tacsis brought two hundred men.”

“No child truly believes they will be hanged. Even on the gallows platform with the rope scratching at their wrists and the shadow of the noose upon their face they know that someone will step forward, a mother, a father returned from some long absence, a king dispensing justice … someone. Few children have lived long enough to understand the world into which they were born. Perhaps few adults have either, but they at least have learned some bitter lessons.”
