  • Anyone with half a brain will certainly claim as much. Even if people don't fully believe it, it will blunt the most serious of social consequences.

  • Taking secret nude pictures of someone is quite a bit different than....not taking nude pictures of them.

    It's not CSAM to put a picture of someone's face on an adult model and show it to your friend. It's certainly sexual harassment, but it isn't CSAM.

  • I know a bunch of places do it with plasma. Not sure with whole blood though.

  • Your best bet is to shoot for one with an AMD Ryzen chip, as they have by-far the best iGPU available.

    Getting a dedicated GPU into a mini PC is a pretty big ask, but the above will even do moderate gaming tasks. My laptop with a Ryzen iGPU plays Guild Wars 2 just fine, for example.


    A self-built Mini-ITX box might also be up your alley, as those can take proper PCI-E graphics cards.

  • It was discovered in pre-history, and almost certainly independently by many, many individuals. You aren't going to get a name on it.

  • If you live in the EU or UK, sign it.

    These aren't just a petition that can be ignored, these actually have a legal process tied to them.

  • Claims moral superiority for never buying the game and instead buying Factorio

  • Never played that game, what is the context?

  • It always pisses me off when someone defending their life, or the lives of others, in a show is somehow a monster for stopping the threat. (Or it is somehow 'honorable' to not kill someone actively murdering others.)

    Fuck no. Stop the murderer, rapist, or terrorist using as much force as is necessary. Little Timmy will be so much better off with parents who are still alive, Susan will be happy her husband wasn't murdered, etc etc.

  • Two US Democratic senators were just assassinated

    Which Senators?

    Edit: Looked it up, appears to be State Rep. Hortman (was confused as 'US Senator' means Senator to the federal Senate, not state-level House representative). Can't find a second assassination though.

  • Fun fact in all party consent states consent is obtained merely by notifying the other party that the call is being recorded

    And almost all calls with a company will start with a line about 'recording the call for quality purposes'. Well, both parties consented after that point, record away!

  • Poor customer support is the #1 thing that will get me to stop using a service/buying future products. Everybody fucks up, what matters most is what happens next. If they make the problem right with little hassle, why bother switching?

  • God that is great mascot. It sears itself into your brain.

  • sudo edit this file!

  • Yeah, it's very unlikely it survived.

  • If you have your encryption key backed up, you have a chance to decrypt it still. It's also possible, but unlikely, the key somehow survived the ISO write and it was written elsewhere on the drive, allowing the key to be recovered. I would only trust such with a professional. (There is basically a smaller encrypted section that your typed-in password decrypts, that section contains the encryption key the rest of the drive uses.)

    Honestly though, if you have your stuff backed up (you do have your stuff backed up elsewhere?!?), just restore from your backup and call this a loss.


    If you don't have a backup, this was your wakeup call. Always have a backup going forward.

  • Don’t fret it, happens to everyone. And the rapidly changing pace of the news here makes it all the more likely.

  • the website’s admins do not want you to have any control over your front page. The end result is utterly alienating.

    This is one of the biggest things. Back when I would netflix often, I would constantly be annoyed when the 'continue watching' dialog was not the first one. Stop moving it around! Now I just watch everything locally. It's so much nicer.

    There is no reason streaming should be such a pain in the ass, and it amazes me the industry has made basic, paid access to shows a chore. And they wonder why viewership is not great*.

    *Also the writing generally sucks ass and assumes I'm not paying attention. No, seriously, they assume you aren't paying attention and write shows as such now. It makes so many things unwatchable.
