Honestly I prefer a good stumper, usually. If it’s some bullshit that Microsoft did, then we’re both going to be sad. But if it’s an interesting problem and I can (mostly) figure it out, that’s way better then fixing the same thing over and over and over and over again.

Fries? Nothing.

Fries? Also Mayo.

Anything else? BBQ.

Many are ketchup based, and while better then ketchup the non-ketchup based ones are miles better.

make use of old eMachines

eMachines was a brand of economical personal computers. In 2004, it was acquired by Gateway, Inc., which was in turn acquired by Acer Inc. in 2007. The eMachines brand was discontinued in 2013.

Why would you want to put a bottle in your ass? Wouldn’t your ass just warm up the beer quicker? Hmmm… although if I shove ice up their first…

Agreed. We need some way to Manage these Passwords. Something to protect all our password Bits and watch over them like a Warden. Some way that I could have just 1 Password. I just want something to Keep my Ass, err Keep my Pass-words safe.

Hopefully someone will solve this problem. Someday.

instead of memories with my loved ones

thousands of memes

Maybe the memes are the loved ones. 😢

Looks like they did, https://lemmy.world/post/33016257

They kept pushing which is exactly what I wanted. I hope they keep at it.

What happened: The House Rules Committee, which prepares legislation for votes on the House floor, voted 5 to 6 against attaching Khanna’s amendment to a procedural measure related to the GENIUS Act and a defense funding bill.

Republicans said the amendment was not pertinent to the GENIUS Act, which would create the first regulatory framework for stablecoins, or the defense funding bill.

I hope the next step is one page bill to vote on and not an amendment to an unrelated bill.

I feel like this amendment gives Republicans full cover since they can just say, “It was an unrelated amendment” and they’d be right.

Just the other day Rep Khanna tweeted,

On Tuesday, I’m introducing an amendment to force a vote demanding the FULL Epstein files be released to the public. The Speaker must call a vote & put every Congress member on record.

But had this amendment passed it would not have put every Congress member on record. Had this amendment passed Congress would have been voting on the “GENIUS Act” and defense funding bill.

We would have been in the EXACT same situation as we JUST had with the “Big Beautiful Bill”. People voting for it and then saying, “Oh, but I don’t agree with it.”

Had his amendment passed Democrats could then vote against the bill by saying, “The GENIUS Act and defense spending bill are terrible pieces of legislation. I also want the list released, but I couldn’t vote for this bill for other reasons.”

And yes, a one page bill that says to release the files would never actually get a congressional vote. The Speaker of the House would never bring it for a vote. Some procedural nonsense would block it. BUT make those fuckers defend their decision.

Just because Democrats are in the minority doesn’t mean they have to give up at the slightest inconvenience. Push this hard. You’ve found a weak spot, hit back! Push Republicans. Fuck, push Democrats if you have to.

Whenever you send a card to get graded, no matter which grading service, they serialize every single card

Wouldn’t serializing a card “damage” the card and make it less valuable? I know the grading service wouldn’t say so, but that’s because they damaged it.

The moment they announced Cats I knew it wasn’t going to work.

First, the story sucks. A bunch of cats prancing around and learning not to be a dick to that one cat.

Second, Cats is a spectacle. The reason you go see Cats in a theater is for the spectacle. Everyone is dressed up and dancing around. It’s meant to be an experience. You can’t translate that to film.

Sure, but you’d have to find someone willing to talk about it. In fact you’d probably want to find at least 2-3 people who can all confirm the same story.

Plus if you can call it a scam right out of the gate (this article is a follow up to the original purchase article when the phone was first “released”) maybe you can limit the damage of the scam.

If you can spend $100 to rightfully call out a scam that would have made $1,000, is that a net win? That’s an honest question. I think so, but I understand that might not be the case.

That’s exactly what piefed does actually.

Reddit sorta half did it with the “other discussions” or duplicate tab.

As an example,

https://old.reddit.com/r/news/duplicates/1lvi6kb/a_clicktocancel_rule_intended_to_make_cancelling/

I never saw any apps implement it, but it does look like it was part of the API, but maybe it wasn’t robust enough.

I also know at one point, and possibly still, is that it lacked URL normalization. So for example, exanple.com/headline and example.com/headline#topstory would be treated as two different articles.

Similarly https://youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ and https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ

Would be treated as separate articles.

These are all fixable problems, but require work.

Before Arch that role belonged to Gentoo.

To add, before the change the Gentoo wiki was a top resource when it came to Linux questions. Even if you didn’t use Gentoo you could find detailed information on how various parts of Linux worked.

One day the Gentoo wiki died. It got temporary mirrors quickly, but it took a long time to get up and working again. This left a huge opening for another wiki, the Arch wiki, to become the new top resource.

I suspect, for a number of reasons, Arch was always going to replace Gentoo as the “True Linux Explorer”, but the wiki outage accelerated it.

Actually, and this may not apply to the current/new Superman but likely would the original Superman, based on the Nationality Act of 1940 Superman could be considered a child found in the United States with unknown parentage.

Even if you don’t go to church if you were raised going to church and then stopped, you still might call yourself a [cultural] Christian.

Also being atheist has a bad reputation attached to it for some people, so someone who meets the definition might not self identify as one.

Similarly I expect that’s also why there are a fewer percentage of Democrats than there are Republicans. I may have voted down ballot for only Democrats, but am I a DNC supporting Democrat? Not really.

I get that Doom or Sonic 2 or Goldeneye or other 90s games aren’t guaranteed a place every year

FWIW Sonic 2 was the game that kicked things off this year.

But also I think the goal should be either showing off new tricks or showing off new games. Older games are going to have fewer new tricks. Obviously sometimes a barrier is broken or a new category is put together that has interesting gameplay, but in general we probably will see fewer old games.

That isn’t to say that old games should go away completely, but if there is a bias towards newer games, it makes sense.

But you are not buying a game, you are renting it.

I absolutely agree that companies shouldn’t be able to say they’re selling you a game. They should make it 100% clear that you are renting it.

I’m also onboard with requiring p2p/LAN functionality for multiplayer.

When I pay to see a film in a theater, I don’t own the film. I don’t get to watch the film again after it leaves the theater.

While I pay to see a concert, a play, or a musical, I don’t own those performances. I don’t get to see them again. They generally aren’t recorded (Although that is changing in some limited cases.)

I do think a game dying is terrible and I do think games should be clearly labeled (so people can make an education decision if they want to rent the game).
