Weird. I promptly tried Fedora and switched to Tumbleweed after Fedora kept crashing soon after startup. Hardware configuration probably affects the outcome a lot.

Take Aerosmith’s Janie’s Got A Gun and replace the name with “Luigi”. It sorta works, too.

The very existence of these trucks is a failure in regulation

This kind of reaction friends entirely on how respectful our disrespectful the other person was in correcting you. For me, anyway.

So you’re saying the audience for the ads have the people who are willing to pay for stuff, the very people the advertisers are paying to reach, removed from it.

I wonder how much longer this will go before the advertisers catch on to that.

The NYPD’s working theory of what pistol was used doesn’t even make sense either. These cops are clueless.

Somehow I find the mental image of a coin-operated anesthetics machine that you wake-up mid-surgery to put more coins in hilarious in a dark way.

Hey, when he died, he did leave behind a better world.

Just pointing out that had it been an average Joe who got assassinated and we had a clear picture of the killer’s face we wouldn’t even have heard about it on the news. Now they want everyone to look for him.

I mean, once you’ve figured out how to play music in someone’s mind, it’s only a matter of time before you figure out what parts of the brain to activate to cause cravings, impulsive behavior or puts you in a suggestible state.

Which means ads can also be streamed. Heck no.

• “$10”
• “But the sign said $5”
• “Then why did you ask?”

The way I see it if they get defederated a lot of the people will migrate away from it and it won’t be “too big to fail” anymore

If by “value” you mean income it isn’t even tied to individual productivity. It’s tied to how much power or leverage you have to demand more.

This is ironically what I loved about Subnautica. The game does not hold your hand throughout. You don’t have a map, you don’t mindlessly follow waypoints, you are not being given a guided tour through the story like some ride at Disneyland. You have to learn to navigate the area yourself, memorize landmarks, and figure out what you have to do yourself with the clues around you. It is a bit of a whiplash at first when you are so used to being babysitted and guided throughout a game but I’ve found it to be the unbelievably rewarding once the “click” happens. You can absolutely miss important (and dope AF) events if you miss the timings that the game gives you. You are treated like an adult by the game. You really get the feeling of being a lone explorer, planning and going on expeditions to gather what you need whether it is resources or blueprints and it will all be you.

The risk-reward situation of exploring increasingly complex and disorienting ship fragments, slowly cutting through blocked doors with a laser while seeing your oxygen levels dwindle and hoping you can find your way back out in time were absolutely fantastic to me. The way the gameplay and the way you travel through the world entirely changes the moment you unlock the PRAWN suit, and one again with the Cyclops are absolutely amazing.

I wish this game clicked with everyone the way it did for me. It is easily my top 5 best single player experiences ever and I only wish I could forget it so I could discover everything again. But The Outer Wilds never clicked for me like that so I can understand why some people might not like it.

New fear unlocked

It gives employers the ability to suppress votes.

NGL, some distros will give you the anxiety that the next update will brick your OS as well

“we need to stop cutting corners and put a cover over that hole that blows up the whole station if someone drops a rock in it”

I can’t be bothered to learn how to build and maintain a kernel though, hence why I stay away from Arch. My “dummy-friendly” distro of choice for KDE Plasma is OpenSuse Tumbleweed. It has been rock solid for a year now except for that one time a few weeks ago when NVidia dropped the ball and fucked up their driver update. It was fixed a few days later. My only other complaint is that I wish they didn’t wait for NVidia to put the new 560 drivers in the production branch to trickle it down to us because for some reason that’s what gets supported in tumbleweed. EVERYONE who needs those drivers are impatiently waiting for just that because pre-555 drivers don’t play well with Wayland.

Fedora Plasma Spin is probably another solid choice but for some reason on my computer it just instantly bricked itself upon first update.
