Things really have changed.

Rosanne was about a poor, blue-collar family struggling to get by that had a house with a detached garage and 4 bedrooms.

But everybody suffering isn't zero-sum. It's net negative.

Even if this were true, a policy that hurts everyone isn't sucessful just because someone else suffers more than you.

Look into Xreal glasses.

I wonder if this font would screw up ocr?

To be fair, DST is a more complicated issue. Everyone wants to end it, but there's disagreement on how to do it.

One side wants to not be missing an hour of sleep half the year and wants to go to standard time only.

The other side is psychopaths. We had a Spring Forward. I'm owed a Fall Back. If they try to take that away from me, I'll take up arms.

It's approaching that point.

If the executive ignores the law and the other branches of government, we effectively no longer have a representative government.

I've recently really gotten into 3d printing, and I've bought the bullet and purchased a pretty nice 3D scanner (Crealty Raptor Pro).

There's no such thing as too much enough RAM for these scans.

There is a super famous, incredibly mediocre destination BBQ restaurant in Central Texas that is famous for an all-you-can-eat family-style meal. For decades, they only accepted cash. Way, way longer than made sense. Like into the 2020s I think.

Their main menu item was all-you-can eat (hard to quantify number of sales), only members of the family that ran the place were allowed to count the take and the receipts at the end of each shift, and they only took cash.

I fully believe they were either laundering money or evading taxes by under-reporting. But then they opened a few satellite branches, including one at the airport, and started having to be more careful as they expanded.

3 things:

First off, you literally started an argument explaining that something can't happen, then ended it by saying that something that can't happen can happen, and that hurts my brain a bit.

Secondly, one reason reason a judge can deputize people is for cases where the executive branch or law enforcement has gone rogue and they need to enforce the law outside of the regular channels.

Third, the whole "Can't arrest or charge a sitting President for any crime" thing isn't a law, but a justice department policy. Deputized law enforcement and prosecutors from outside of the justice department wouldn't be bound by that policy.

I was slightly wrong about the order. I was actually talking about Black Mesa, which was in the same initial batch of 10 games.

Steam Greenlight was a program where independent games without a publisher could release games on Steam, but it was absolutely exclusive. They couldn't sell their game elsewhere.

Literally the first game released on the program was a free Total Conversion mod that you could download anywhere else for free, but if you wanted to get it installed through Steam, you paid them for the privilege.

That's exactly what Steam Greenlight was before they stopped all curation of games.

I think a middle ground may be having that requirement for background mic usage, or usage without a specific user prompt that turns on a mic.

Lots of apps have legitimate use for the mic. Apps having legitimate use for the mic while you're not actively using the app on screen are more limited and need stricter permissions.

I'd also like to have a hardware mic mute switch that physically disconnects the mic, so I can just keep it off unless I want it like I do with the mic and Webcam on my computer.

Wait until a loose toilet seat at a public bathroom slides to the side, and with all the motion, they get pinched between the seat and the porcelain.

Sneezing is one of the top ways people throw out their backs.

Semi is a POS designed by a bunch of engineers who have never operated a semi.

Hell - with the center-space driver's seat, the driver can't hand over an ID or a clipboard at a gatehouse without exiting the vehicle through the rear of the cab and walking around.

Epic charges 12%, but they're somehow the villain.

Kash Patel also took down the statement claiming she misdirected them.

She asked the ICE agents to wait for the end of the hearing to arrest him.

So they arrested her.
