With good union representation, right?

It doesn't breakdown as fast as claimed, either. PLA needs high temperature composting to breakdown.

It's not impossible to do, but nobody bothers. It's one of the more sustainable options for 3d printing, so we should get on that.

There's been an undercurrent of this among TERF forums. In many ways, they're leftover second wave feminists who didn't get on board with the intersectionality that's central to third wave feminism. They tend to drag other things from 1960s/70s feminism along with them, like prattling on about the Earth Mother and healing crystals.

One of the criticisms the third wave had of the second is that the sex negativity tended to align them with far right religious conservatives on many issues. That's a good indication that something went wrong. Maybe it's no surprise they ended up in MAGA.

It was only a few years ago, when I ran off some Dreamcast games.

It's not hard to set it up without an actual gun. You can get reloading primers. 3D print something to hold one in place, and then have a spring-loaded nail that can hit the primer when released. Should make a pretty good bang. Cheaper than any actual gun, too.

We don’t live in the age of books anymore.

We don't, but there's problems with only relying on electronic information that can be swapped out at any time. Don't have to burn the information when you can make it say whatever you want.

Cons: capitalism is already ruining it with monoculture strains and subsequent crop loss from one little thing wiping out everything. Industry trade groups are forming to be the next generation of lobbyists. For now, they're on our side by focusing on legalization, but they won't be on our side forever.

Not so much mixed metaphors as throwing the ingredients in a bowl and calling it a cake.

Because they make all the cheap ethernet chips that go on motherboards.

Other than that, can't think of a good reason.

Lucille Bluth says she's friends with her Hispanic servant, "even though she's an illegal".

Going a bit meta: has the right wing poisoned this well, too? The way they Capitalize Random Words is bad, but title case in OP is valid.

A lot of it was fair criticism at the time. Linux fixed some of what was wrong. Having a good sudo config mostly resolves the problem of having one superuser account, and big, multiuser systems are a lot less common now, anyway. X's network transparency features aren't that useful in modern computing contexts, either, though I have found a few over the years.

But mostly, it's because the landscape changed from a hundred Unix vendors vs a bunch of other OSen, to now where it's Windows vs Linux vs OSX. By that comparison, the two with Unix-derived history look well thought out.

(This also implies that NextStep was the one old Unix vendor that has survived in a meaningful way. I don't think anyone would have guessed that 30 years ago.)

:wq will save the current buffer and quit.

I am shocked, shocked, that wccftech left things out of their reporting.

Looking around the country, I'd say we don't have to imagine. All too many were raised by Jerry Springer and Maury.

If you've played SMB a fair amount, there is at least one that you've almost certainly ran into at random. It is exploited by speedrunners, but you've probably hit it just playing the game normally.

Pirhana plants only check the hitbox every other frame. Obviously, this is a speed optimization. At some point, you've probably gone right through a piranha plant that should have hit you. Speedrunners can and do exploit this, as well, of course.

An extension of this idea in other games is when you have split-screen multiplayer. In games like the OG Mario Kart, player inputs are processed on alternating frames. Which means the game has an average of 0.5 frames of input latency in multiplayer before anything else gets calculated in. (And people say retro games don't have input lag on CRTs; these people are wrong for a lot of different reasons).

Someone needed to advocate for the freedom of the military to do whatever it wanted.

Actually, no, nobody needed to do that.

That's where the "help others buy guns" and "help others train" comes in. The approach to this on the right vs the left is very different.

New way to avoid becoming the Nazi Bar. Ask them for ID before they can use the bathroom.

They're working on defunding the library already.
