Veep is far and away the most accurate political show we’ve ever had

Props to Bethesda for releasing an original IP, but unfortunately the game sucked

Yeah I mean that’s why we declared war on airplanes after 9/11

If the open world in rebirth is like 15, this game will be trash.

They share ram with gpu, which means they need more of it for equivalent memory space, not less. There’s no magic that makes less memory work like more other than swap, and swap is slow as fuck, even with a high speed ssd (which the m3’s actually have slower ones).

I really liked 1 and 2 both. Dd2 is less punishing in that the worst case scenario is losing a run.

If this is just a class or two, though, I will be passing. The base game was expensive enough, and I think I’ve already seen most of what’s there.

That petition and a nickel is worth about 5 cents. Go get a better OS.

The services are way too different to compare that feature in isolation, unfortunately. But discord’s business model is not to be a cdn, and I think it’s a good move to occasionally prune a feature that doesn’t provide enough juice for the squeeze. We’ve seen much worse enshittification this year, and I doubt this move has any measurable effect on their active users. Dealing with getting your servers off of blacklists because some douche decided to host malware on your free file hosting isn’t how anyone wants to spend their days, I assure you.

I didn’t intend to imply that, my statement can be rephrased as “if users don’t like this change, they should use an alternative, because discord is going to do what makes sense to discord.” File hosting is ubiquitous and cheap, so it isn’t a big deal. I don’t work at discord, but I do work at a company that has file hosting as one of its features, and combating malicious misuse of that feature is expensive and a pain in the ass. If I could get away with not offering file hosting, I’d be tempted to remove it.

Eh if they don’t want people using their service that way, that’s their right. People who care about it that much should host a matrix instance.

To be fair, I still bitch about the 2000 election, and I’m not even Al Gore

It’s moderately common in my social circles to argue that South Dakota is a hoax

I assume the federation has a treatment that makes your mouth inhospitable to cavity-causing bacteria

It would probably cost like $1 of components to make most led bulbs resilient to all but spookiest of power delivery, but why sell something once when you can make them buy it over and over again

200 vulnerabilities, 2-3 that might actually be exploitable, and no prioritization. But look at these metrics!

Cybersecurity, as a profession, is a fool’s errand.

Dedicated security staff exist solely to teach real engineers how to do their job, and the fact that such personnel exist is a catastrophic failure in computer science curriculum

This is my approach to sms spam as well, it makes my ballot much faster to fill out: I vote for whoever didn’t spam me

Well, that’s one way to deal with an aging population

Big oof, that looks terrible
