It says they are doing it to compete with iPad. Weird. Aren't tablets sales across all brands constantly declining?

Debian on my servers. Fedora on my laptop. Gentoo in my kitchen (yep that exact espresso machine). I'm all over the place.

I'm in the USA and it's totally easy not to use Amazon. The first step is buying less shit though and people are pretty addicted to buying crap they don't need.

I'm the US many stores like Best Buy and Home Depot will price match Amazon.

Garlands inability to execute the duties of his current job don't indicate to me he would have been a inadequate as a Justice. It's a different job with different duties and by all indications he would have likely performed fine.

The watch website says the final version may not look like the pictures. Also they don't have a production or delivery timeline and no promises of delivery.

Thanks. My Sync was configured to look a bit different. I'm back to the defaults now and it looks good.

Which app is that?

Public price lists from each studio's clearing house. Licensing becomes like fuel at the pump. Doesn't matter who pulls up they're all paying the same rate.

Excellent write up. I think there are different kinds of pain and we'd need to measure to account for that.

When I'm at the BDSM club the women generally want and can take more pain. (Some guys are totally insane though.)

When I'm in my gravel biking group it's very much the opposite. The dudes will slide down 20 ft of gravel and their legs look like someone took a cheese grater to them. They have a laugh, hop back on the bike, and finish the ride with blood in their shoes. The ladies generally take a little spill and loose a little skin and they are crying and want help walking their bike back to the car. (Some chicks are hard as nails though.)

Nah. We need legal protection to separate content creators and distributiors. Creator's license content. Laws could mandate all distributors get access to the same pricing. Then you pick the distribution platform you enjoy.

Creator's compete for views with quality content.

Distributors compete for users with features and curation.

No exclusive rights. No studio running a streaming platform. No streaming platform starting up studios. None of this anticompetitive lock-in.

I agree with your post for the most part but "I think" are wasted words. Every statement is a something someone thinks unless they cite a source. Only include "I think" if you're doubting your opinions.

I don't know much about AI porn but I see a huge difference between putting a real person's face on a real person's nude body and putting an imaginary face on an imaginary nude body.

What part of the world does this idea come from? Men in general definitely don't complain about pain more than any other gender in my region. I have noticed a gender difference between taking a nap, walking it off, and taking drugs. I could probably generalize a bit about who prefers rest, who prefers to grin and bare it, and who prefers to try to medicate it.

I haven't had a McDonald's milkshake in 30 years but I remember the plastic straws collapsed at both ends back then.

Compare owning some land and shitbox you can live in to being homeless or watching all the money you earn be taken and horded by landlords.

I'll take the shitbox please.

She could find a doctor who only accepts private insurance if she wants. Does she not know that?

It's real? I thought this was some Gen ai art but https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/creep_van

I see my mistake. I was overly focused on airborne data. Malaria hasn't really changed for the better has it. Thank you.

I stand corrected. Let me adjust my comment. Most viruses, the vast majority, are not deadly to humans. Those that are tend to mutate to become less deadly to humans over time.
