Interactive performance art, and D&D, probably for the same reasons. It’s fine if it’s your cup of tea, but I find them to be incredibly annoying. I don’t want to participate in either of those worlds in any way. Oddly I love many videogames RPG’s and can get behind a well written play. I just find there aforementioned extremes to be entirely tedious and grating.

Completely agree, there is The Wire and then there is everything else. It is simply in a tier of its own.

I just partitioned my drive thinking I might need windows for occasional tasks. I spend 99% of my time in Linux. I’ve only switched over a few times really just to organize old things. I’ll likely eventually just do away with windows to free up the space. I don’t really spend time in the console and spend less time solving issues in like much than I did I’m windows. For a lot of things, stuff just works.

I asked Google to look at my reddit profile and it hallucinated that I have a son, despite that not being the case and me never having claimed or said anything like that. It got at least some other stuff right.

The Republicans have all 3 branches of government. You’re acting like because no one has a magic wand to waive this all away, that this means they have failed. Public opinion has swung heavily against Trump. The resistance is winning in every way that it can. But defeatists will always point out what hasn’t been accomplished, instead of what has. Factions of the left are more organized than at any point since Civil Rights. Millions of people across the country are mobilized and active in their communities. Every single day Trump is in office his opposition grows. This isn’t nothing, stop acting like it is.

They are currently planning the 2nd general strike… Minneapolis was nominated for the nobel prize precisely because of how effective their resistance has been and continues to be. There are thousands of private signal chats all over the state constantly organizing and responding directly to action on the ground. Your comment just seems like defeatist barely veiled concern trolling.

Is there anything wrong with Nebula? Or is the issue that it acts more like a supplemental streaming service rather than a primary one? It seems like between peertube and nebula creators really could shift their user base to other systems if they worked together to bring attention to the matter as part of an organized campaign against Google.

Good policy opens up protections to everyone. Poorly versed politicians frame things narrowly because their privileges make them blind to everyday life.

What he said was that holman was at least willing to talk (which is a low bar). Walz made no assurances that I am aware of. I agree with your second sentence either way though.

they’re all old and outdated tech.

You can put graphene os on the newest pixel if you really want. Imo, you shouldn’t be giving Google the money anyway. Makes more sense to buy an older refurbished pixel from a trusted 3rd party. The newer phones are not really major increases in tech anymore anyway. I’m still rocking a pixel 6 pro and it feels functionally equivalent to the newer phones but it’s 5 years old.

Pretty sure Google classroom is for classroom management, not specifically for remote learning. A place to put sulybus, assignments, grades, enrollment, etc.

Not a huge fan of Chomsky as a person, even if he’s said things I agree with. But it’s worth considering that he was extremely critical of the exact apparatus that is reporting his demise. Not saying he wasn’t a creep, he was arrogant enough to be, but this could all be fiction. Also plenty of people knew Epstein that were not part of his extracurriculars. As much as I want to see a lot of these rich fucks squirm, we really lack incriminating info. And even if we had it, I’m not sure I trust the current people handling the documents.

Changed, in to “before”, iirc this impact persists a little past infancy, but yes not into the teens, I just was not thinking about my words.

Evidence shows that early exposure to potential allergies reduces the likelihood of getting that allergy. Since we’ve know this doctors have recommended early exposure to allergens, instead of avoiding them. Now that we no longer avoid peanuts in adolescence, the allergy is receding.

A lot of places put the waste basket by the door for this very reason.

Anyone using any technology can miss something and end up in the same spot. I think the real takeaway is that there is way too much consolidation of our technology.

I don’t follow this either, but devils advocate, a review would find no wrongdoing without evidence beyond someones word. But just because something isn’t provable, doesn’t mean it didn’t happen. At my workplace there is a tenured professor that has been harassing people into quitting for 30 years, and they still don’t have “evidence” beyond someones word, not enough to get around tenure. If they were forced to give a statement they would likely say no wrongdoing.

Belatro won all sorts of awards, including GDC game of the year. $10 for an award winning game is nothing. Probably the most addicting game I’d played in years, and I’m not even into that type of game.

Makes perfect sense. I do get some light exercise on the e-bikes. If you’re familiar with zone minutes, I get between 15-75 each 18 mile round trip, depending on how hard I peddle. It’s usually enough to cover my exercise for the week. I can always peddle harder on the way home when I’m not worried about being sweaty.

Revolution doesn’t have to be violent. We do need a revolution, but I agree that violent revolution leaves a power vacuum any shithead can fill. We desperately need a grass roots, community based, cultural revolution though. One that firmly opposes our current consumerist culture.
