Apathy? Not at all. Its simply a matter of established law, in the USA anyway. I can’t speak to the legal systems of the other 140+ countries on planet Earth.

Can you cite a law in the USA or in your own country where you have a right to privacy making photographing you simply standing in a public park an illegal act perpetrated by another person or government entity?

Now if they can just notify you that some asshole is recording you on their cell phone instead of reading reddit.

If you’re out in public, always assume you’re on someone’s camera. That isn’t really new either.

before that it wasn’t always considered as big of a deal as you are referring to, idk pre 1970s or what.

We’re agreeing with the reality that it wasn’t considered a crime or a big deal in generations past. Where we’re a huge gulf of disagreement is if this was a problem or not. I am flabbergasted about the strong defense you’re putting up to be able to drink and drive.

May I ask if you or your family have ever been negatively affected by a drunk driver before?

I digress though, no one thinks people should be driving drunk, I am just making the point, that .12 for generations was the standard, in some states.

And the standard before .12 was “no standard” where driving drunk wasn’t even a crime.

The larger problem is why we are completely reliant on vehicles, that we cannot even enjoy more than two drinks on the town and legally go home. There must be better ways, fuck cars.

Taxi cabs have exist since before the invention of cars.

Completely unrelated to the article: I would encourage any woman of child bear age to obtain a passport now when there is no rush. Using the slow process it takes about 6-10 weeks to get your passport. For a full passport that can be used in any country the cost is $130. If you only want to go to Canada and/or Mexico, you only need a passport card, which can be had for only $30. Its the same form to get either the book or the card, you would just check a different box.

Also unrelated: Abortion pills are easily available in both Mexico and Canada.

Growing up, our household had a giant roll of butcher paper. It was 2 ft (60cm) wide and about 1000 feet (300m) long roll. I have no idea why we had it, but as kids we were allowed to use as much as we wanted for whatever we wanted. It turned into a childhood of projects, games, costumes, banners, signs, crafts, wrappings, pranks, etc. Close to the beginning as kids, we’d asked for art supplies like markers, paint, pens, pencils, charcoal, etc to transform that boring cheap paper into different universes. We became creative because it was available.

Something about having an unlimited supply of something and infinite permissions was an unexpected freedom.

Uh huh, hey, why don’t these job numbers reports ever talk about whether these new jobs are keeping up with the cost of living? Seems like it’d be important to discern how many jobs are paying minimum wage and how many are paying enough to actually afford to survive longer than the next 24 fucking hours.

You’d get closer to that answer with a different report. Probably a combination of the Occupation Finder data showing wage ranges and the Employment Projections data which shows employment increase in number of jobs or declines in each sector.

I mean, I expect a hockey team to be in its locker room. Did they actively invite Patel, or did Patel just show up uninvited. I think its the latter, right?

Nuclear was was always an apocalypse that might happen.

I’m not sure if you know the history of how close we came to nuclear war in October 1962. It was the first time in history the USA ever went to Defcon 2. We had 25 nuclear bombers in the air with the rest of them on 15 minute standby.

Hitler was bad, but he didn’t have anything like the arsenal and intelligence networks available to Trump. We have the consentration camps, and the death camps too, although those are outsourced in other countries.

As bad as trump is, has he murdered 13 million innocent people yet? That’s Hitler’s number of murdered innocent people.

We have been at worse points in history than we are right now.

The world is in a bad place right now, but it was even worse of when we are right at the edge of global nuclear war in 1962 during the Cuban Missile Crisis. Before that the world was on the verge of falling in the early 1940s to fascist rule of Hitler and the Emperor of Japan with most of Europe occupied and concentration camps exterminating thousands of innocent people a day.

As bad as it is today, we’ve had worse, and we made it through it to better times. It won’t come without effort, but humanity will get through this too.

I have no problem with Bad Bunny’s music or entertainment even if its not something I seek out regularly. However, I’ve never seen Bad Bunny work against free and fair elections in the United States or foment insurrection when he didn’t get elected President, so just by those measures, Bad Bunny is a much better representation of American values than trump.

Is it surprising though? Those that put more thought into it choose not do to the violence.

Its not an equally slow CPU. These boards support Xeon CPUs that first launched 11 years after DDR3.

The implication is that there are users needing large RAM footprints that aren’t CPU bound. The hit in performance on the RAM isn’t significant enough to justify spending orders of magnitude more for modern DDR5 which is in short supply.

In computing history there’s precedent for this. Amiga computers had a small amount of “Fast RAM” which was extremely expensive, but the CPU could address a second bank of “Chip RAM” which was significantly slower but much much cheaper.

We could see this idea return in modern computers.

Woah there buddy, the start of the line for the 5 1/4" floppy is back there. No cutting.

I’m not sure you’re caught up to current events. DDR3, from 2007, is making a comeback because of supply shortages of newer RAM. New modern motherboards are being manufactured that can take this old RAM because its available and still cheap enough.

4116s are DIPs. I’d de desolder those myself for installation into my Intel 8088 luggable.

He also needs that revenue to personally enrich himself from taxpayer money. He gave himself $10 billion for creating his Board of “peace”.

The population of the USA as of Feb 2026 is 342.3 million people. This means that trump personally took $29.21 from every single American living today (including newborn children and aging senior citizens) and put that money in his personal bank account.

Its things like this that I cannot understand how poverty stricken trump supporters are still okay with him and his actions.

…yes but what about the second play through. There’s changes to the game after you’ve beaten it once?

What is your favorite Zelda memory?

Drawing in the missing map squares from the published map that came with the game:

What I’m surprised hasn’t happened yet is RAM ICs being recycled at the retail level. As in, you could bring in an old laptop or phone with 32GB of soldered RAM and it would be desoldered and sold for cash or possibly even soldered into a new device you buy from that retailer.

I wonder how close we are to that business model arriving.
