  • It's apparently a hold over from olden times when good Christian farmers weren't going to skip church to travel to the county seat and vote. So Monday is a travel day and Tuesday is when you vote. Or something like that.

    Voting day and daylight savings time are the two immutable objects in American life.

    Edit: and both are catering to farmers. Those and corn subsidies are the 3 immutable objects in American life, all catering to farmers.

  • Sony has had the dedicated focus/snap button for years but zoom is handled by the volume buttons. I liked that setup, but went away from them earlier this year because their phone keeps overheating in camera mode. That was as of mark IV anyway. I hear the new ones are better but not sure how much.

  • What you're saying makes s lot of sense, but how do you speak dates?

    When did you start working your current job? It was in 2022, Aprill 11th

    What's your anniversary date? We were married on 2012, September the 9th.

    People don't talk that way, which is how writing them down got to be the MMDDYYYY format in the first place. Technically, it was MMDDYY exclusively until mid 1999.

  • But if, instead of a hot dog, there are sliced deli meats on the table and you ask me to pass the sandwich, I'm still going to pause and be confused because component parts are never the final product. I'm not sure what this proves.

  • I honestly don't know. Just that I tried to install Mint and it booted from USB just fine, but gave an error when I tried to run the installer. I don't recall the error message anymore but when I googled it, the problem was RST being enabled. I (dumbly) disabled it and rebooted into Windows only to find a drive missing. Thought I lost it but after re-enabling and rebooting a couple of times it came back.

    I decided not to play until I could move that data and then reformat the drive without RST.

  • I recently tried installing Linux next to Windows in order to begin the transition, but my system has Intel Rapid Storage and Linux doesn't like that. Someday I hope to find a solution or get another drive to move off the data so I can disable RST.

  • Lunch menus everywhere I've gone give smaller portions vs. the dinner menu to justify the lottery lower price. I'd love some lunch portions (and prices) for dinner as an option.

    Happy hour is a good analogy though, except that they publish the prices and times 24/7 so it's not a surprise like surge pricing is turning into.

  • I didn't think they could do one sequel to Cocaine Bear, much less two. But they did it, and in record time. Cocaine Shark wasn't my jam but I'll give it credit for doing a lot of world building. Cocaine Barnacle should have gone straight to video though.
