  • It's so weird you immediately list the differences between Stein and Harris, but not Trump. Totally unprompted. Considering that a third party is going against the other two, that's odd. Almost like you know exactly what you're doing, but won't admit it.

  • That's a really innovative idea, and solves a lot of transportation problems since phonographs were usually stationary in a house.

    However, the size doesn't fix the problem of carrying around 10" disks to play on it, so the setup is only as compact as its components. Still better than carrying around a cabinet, though!

  • A lot of the actual, serious ones that knew what they were doing got caught. Some went to lulsec to be jerks with no agenda and were caught by the Feds. All that was left were script kiddies that downloaded the Low Orbit Ion Cannon and used scripts they find online. Then they left or were overtaken by alt right idiots.

    The original Anonymous are in their 30s and 40s by now. Everyone ages out.

  • Computer usage doesn't determine that you spell it with a k.

    A disk is indeed short for diskette, and disc is short for discus.

    However, you can absolutely use a compact disc on a computer.

    And while there are typically spinning platters or spinning magnetic strips inside hard drive disks or floppy disks, they are referred to by the whole unit as a logical disk drive that you'd see in computer.

    If it's possible to find them all now, you'd see that DVDs, CDs, Blu-ray, laserdisc, are all spelled like discus. 3.5, 4.5 floppy disks, hard drives, solid state drives, tape drives, etc all spell it disk.

    So for the most part, being purely observational, you can see that anything shaped like a frisbee with a hole in it will be a disc, and everything else is a disk.

    I think that's slightly different than your explanation, as the terms are mutually exclusive.

  • It's probably more sanitary in Japan, but in the US I could see the guy sitting in the both next to me sneezing directly into the water, licking his chopsticks before attempting (and missing) some noodles. Then giving up and using his hands, that he didn't wash after coming back from the toilet.

    Kind of like buffets.

  • I really enjoyed the first one, so I'm looking forward to this as well. They made a pretty good historical have that was also entertaining, and felt much more realistic than something like Skyrim without being too hardcore.

  • They did this in 2008-09 with an 8k payment to homebuyers that wasn't a loan and didn't have to be repaid. This enabled me to but a foreclosed house and make it livable, and I've been living in it since then. It didn't raise prices in my area, because no one was buying houses anyway because regular possible couldn't afford it.

    I don't know if I would have been able to get so financially situated if that payment wasn't there. I could've bought the house, but I would not have been able to fix it enough to ever stay on top of the maintenance and bills.

    Would this be exactly the same situation? I dunno. But I know a similar push sure worked in the past.

  • Well, right, it doesn't have to be a specific OS. I haven't done much research because I'm my current situation, it's not a good option for me as (for instance) some of my required 2FA apps won't validate on a rooted phone.

    If that changes, I'd do more research, obviously.

  • I rooted my phone years ago and it was a chore. Once it finally worked, hardly any of my apps would run and nothing important worked because suddenly a rooted phone isn't "safe". It was such a pain in the ass to do updates and fight programs to run that I stopped. I didn't want to spend hours fixing a device that I really didn't want to think about.

    I would love to install GrapheneOS and have it mostly just work. I hate having my phone locked down like it's not mine, and it's one of the reasons I won't use it for anything important over my desktop.

  • A broken clock is right twice a day - I won't really bother to find out why they won't go to DD, but I'm already boycotting them because their donuts suck and their coffee isn't as good as my local coffee shop.

    Donut is in their name, and they can't even have fresh ones made? Lazy and greedy corpos run that place.
