Bootstraps ran out back in the 60’s, we’ve just been getting shoelaces
I may or may not be any number of unfathomable beings.

If it were anyone other than him, literally dropping dead in Congress because of the passion of your speech would be one of the most based things a politician could ever do.
But with Mitch you know he’d keel over arguing about how school kids don’t actually need food.

Bernie did it in 2010 for 8 and a half straight hours.
Pretty sure it does, actually. If I look up a route and my partner looks up the same route at the same time both from within our house, mine usually has about a 3-5 minute faster eta.
I do a lot of highway driving. It’ll frequently tell me “in X miles take the exit towards [whatever]” but it will refuse to tell me what exit number I’m looking for until I’m within a mile or two of it. This is frequently a problem when I have exits with A/B/C branches which is often. I don’t give a shit if I’m exiting towards I40, just tell me I’m exiting on 13B, and tell me that from the beginning.
It used to do this, it changed a couple years ago, and I’ve been pissed off about it every time I’ve had to drive somewhere since then.
It’ll also randomly change voices on me, it’ll flip flop constantly between the American accent and a thick British accent. No rhyme or reason to it either, it’ll be a different voice on the same turn on a different day. Drives me nuts.
I got mine smack in the middle of a boss fight in Remnant 2 lol, but my build is stupidly tanky enough that I was able alt-tab close it fast enough to not even die. Felt a little proud of that.
Fake news, the JD stands for Jorkin DePeanus
Ever seen birds standing on powerlines?
The difference between a regular idiot doing a dangerous job and an engineer doing a dangerous job is the engineer knows which parts of the job he’s risking imminent death on. There may often be no other difference.
The staff is nice if you’re nice. Most of them will be ready to throw down if you’re an asshole though. Especially the cooks, if the cook exits out from behind the griddle, you have done fucked up big time.
The whole reason the shell game wank is an attractive prospect in the first place is a question of who watches the watchmen. If your trusted central authority gets compromised, will you know? And if you know, will you be able to do anything about it?
I don’t exactly think that cryptocoin is the best solution in this regard, but I can at least respect the attitude behind how it came to be.
What core utilities does Firefox need that it doesn’t have? Honest question. I’ve been using it over a decade and never had it fail to do something I asked it to, and I’m a little out of the loop on the web browser development news cycle beyond the recent wave of Google Bad.
I’m waist deep in The Dresden Files right now (just started Turn Coat, book 11 of like 20 and counting) and it very quickly became one of my favorite series I’ve ever read. Jim Butcher has woven a web of a story where every little detail is a foreshadow that often won’t pay off until two books later, it’s incredible.
Prior to this I read The Expanse and that one also comes highly recommended. It’s one of the most believable space operas I’ve ever read. I also hear the TV show is good, no idea, never watched it.
If it’s not for you it’s not for you, but I will say the Persona series took a big turn for the better around Persona 3. The modern ones don’t have a whole lot in common with the first couple beyond some basic play structure. If the last one you played was on the PS1 and you’re at all interested in an anime JRPG then P5 is worth a second look.
The electricity grid, on the other hand, already exists
…largely in the same appalling, copper-line state it has been in since its original installation 100 years ago. Which is woefully and catastrophically unprepared for an America full of EV drivers.
Not disagreeing with your core point, but just saying. The American electrical backbone system is absolutely in no way prepared for a mass shift to electric vehicles at this time. We’re getting there, and if EV adoption continues at its current pace we run a pretty good chance of being fine so long as proper upgrades are actually being made, but we’re not there yet and demand for EVs absolutely could still outpace the ability of our electrical infrastructure to support them.
And last year you could have also said “nobody is going to threaten nuclear escalation with all of NATO at once” and I’d have believed it, but look where we are
Thanks I hate this, but you’re absolutely right.
First one, then the other, and that’s why Kroger is getting their asses sued off by the FTC under Biden appointee Lina Khan. The avian flu issue was a legitimate supply/demand squeeze for a little while, until it wasn’t, and Kroger didn’t back down an inch, so the FTC is stepping in.
I played it on PS4 and the load times were hilariously awful but the game ran fine. But seriously, like 6+ minute load times in the late game, compared to around 20 seconds on PC. Don’t know how the Xbox would compare, probably depends which Xbox.
The games were pretty clearly intended for PC but they control fine on console/controller.
