Changing amendments is no problem when you have judges to “reinterpret” them at will

About as often as they actually release anything

I wouldn’t get too excited. Supposedly the next headset is internally called Deckard, and it’s been “about to release” for like 3 years now? Pretty much everything people think they know about it is conjecture based off code Valve has tucked away in SteamVR; zero public statements of intent.

As for VR on Linux… kinda? I’ve only read terrible things about it online. I have an Index and tried to use it with Mint a few months back, and while it mostly worked without any configuration issues, there was a weird white ring around the edge of the screen that I couldn’t figure out.

They literally already tried and failed with the phoneification of windows when everyone shat on 8. I guess some ahole UI designer still works there and is bitter that people didn’t like their ideas.

Just 3 days ago I had to use the control panel to access the settings I needed to get my parents’ printer to work right. Even tried to use the regular settings menu for maybe 10 minutes before remembering how to access the settings I needed. Here’s hoping my parents never run into printer issues again (lol).

FUCK YOU, MICROSOFT!

I think Republicans are also generally disengaged. That’s what enables them to vote for so much monstrous garbage; they don’t pay enough attention to know what they’re voting for. There are also plenty of true believers who really are christian nationalists, but for most people, if they follow the policy positions, they’d be Democrats.

So when it comes to the number of people watching a convention, the DNC sorta naturally attracts more people since the base is paying more attention.

What difference does an airtight case make when you have a litany of judges, all the way up to the supreme court, that will happily twist the law to rule in your favor?

Well obviously all you lightweights were just stunted by vaccines, REAL babies come out of the womb with all their teeth and a craving for beef jerky

Fewer legal immigrants doesn’t mean fewer workers, it just means fewer people being paid above board. That extra money doesn’t go to union members, it goes to stock buybacks and CEO packages. The more of a company’s workforce is part of the union, the stronger the union’s negotiating position, and THAT’S how unions get more money for their members.

Immigrant labor is actually cheaper when immigration is tightly controlled, at least it is in the US where “restricted” really just means more illegal immigrants rather than fewer overall. When you let people in legally, they’re documented, unions can actually reach out to them, and they are protected by things like minimum wage.

Illegal immigrants are not.

yeah i mean, theres no way lol. even if the tech gets here that quickly there’s 0% chance prices come down significantly on lower capacity drives. these’ll be at least $500 and possibly far far more

Didn’t mean to imply they hadn’t been doing anything, that’s why I used the word “frame.” There are all kinds of videos of that robot trying to do backflips and the hydraulics busting in the process or other issues which would necessitate internal upgrades. Just thought it was strange that each iteration shown up to 2016 was of a different model, then we get 6 in a row of essentially the same one.

I’m pretty sure everything from 2016-onwards is the same frame with the same capabilities, just different videos showing off how versatile it is. They actually retired that frame this year, this is the new one: https://bostondynamics.com/blog/electric-new-era-for-atlas/

Yeah this seems common. I had a friend who grew up with parents who alternated between English, Portuguese, Italian, and French, and he told me he wound up not being able to speak at all until he was over 2 years old. It didn’t affect him badly later on, and he always insisted it was worth it

I know he’s a liar. But lying about those things can’t resonate with his supporters the way this could. This was almost a core campaign slogan, it’s a downright meme. A denial that he supported it ought to be a much more obvious lie than the others

This is a new tier of cognitive dissonance, even for Trump. I mean he literally got crowds chanting “lock her up!” Hopefully this is the icing on the cake of his felony convictions and gets a few more people to break out of the cult.

I’m no expert either but as I understand it, the core service they are most well known for is protection against DDOS attacks. By routing traffic first to Cloudflare before sending it to the intended destination, it can try to check to make sure that whatever it’s routing isn’t coming from a botnet or whatever.

Just as dumb? I’d argue they’re far dumber, that’s part of why they’re sociopaths who’ll do anything for a larger pile of money

Used to be if I found the site of a newspaper I thought I liked, I’d turn off my ad blocker to see how it goes.

I don’t even try any more. Again and again and again, every time I turn it off the page gets so cluttered that following the article becomes a chore and takes up so many resources that even scrolling slows to a crawl. Ludicrous nonsense.
