Jinx confirmed

I assume they’re referring to the NSO emulators, that thing where you need to pay monthly to access the retro games.

Yes! I remember those.

What’s the last one, the red tape with black dots? I don’t remember that.

It’s sweet how much effort you’re putting into it. When I was a kid I built my first computer one piece at a time with money I saved from mowing lawns, there’s something so satisfying about earning a computer through dozens of shrewd bargains and months of dedicated labor. It’s all worth it in the end, you’ve got this!

I finally have a computer that can run Cyberpunk 2077, but it is such a dull game.

El Salvador is literally running a death camp, they don’t plan to ever release the prisoners. They just keep them alive for free labor and to avoid the stigma of running a Holocaust; but Germany was the same at first, they only ramped up the death at the end of the war.

Third time’s a charm.

It’s wild to me how difficult switching can be when so many devices come with Linux and people don’t even think about it.

The Steamdeck is more stable than any windows gaming PC I’ve had; Android phones are rock solid, less prone to issues than a PC; Chromebooks work forever without getting malware, and receive updates for more than a decade; but try to DIY it and you’re in the fire swamp of driver issues.

Have you tried Mint? It usually just works. Atomic distros are also looking pretty promising, they’re so stable and recoverable.

Sure, they’re just venting, but I just wanna talk about Linux all day. I’ll listen to their problems, treat them with respect and understanding, but you better believe I will also squeeze in a little special interest sauce on my side of the conversation sandwich.

I like your funny words magic man.

It’s the Epstein Ballroom.

Congress approved military strikes in the entire middle east region under Bush. Even if the strikes weren’t in active war zones, they were approved uses of military force. Trump has no such authority for his strikes on boats in the Pacific and Caribbean.

I agree that the authorizations granted under Bush were bullshit and tantamount to war crimes, but the actions of the president is starkly different.

I thought Obama had congressional approval for all his military actions.

That’s not just killing people, it’s part of the job of being president: executing the will of the republic. What Trump is doing is very different.

The south was actually more accepting of Jews than the north at the time (as long as they had the right complexion). Thousands served in the confederate army, many holding high rank.

VLC definitely has evangelists, they have just become the dominant culture so you don’t really notice it. They don’t have an advertising budget, it got popular through word of mouth.

I think Linux enthusiasts appear more evangelical because of the deep entrenchment of Windows; you are noticing the push back and debate, whereas with VLC you just see people recommending it and people being grateful for the recommendation.

Whoa, that is an aspect I never thought of. More bits to work with. Plus I’d imagine the glans is easier to repurpose when it’s been kept nice and protected.

Congratulations on your clit btw.

The lack of beans and black pudding is especially egregious. If England is giving up on free speech they could at least go after these faux english breakfast frauds.

Courts shouldn’t be political. The status is not quo.

Copper and lodestone were some of the first materials refined from ores. You can also create a permanent magnet by getting a piece of iron struck by lightning.

Once you have copper and a magnet you can use the electricity to make additional magnets out of iron.

It’s also possible to make a magnet with a compass, a piece of iron, and a striking hammer:
