Yeah, but paying $300 for one is crazy for the average home user. If I am spending company dollars, then sure, there is a reason to go for the brand name. But for my home setup I want something between cheap and crazy expensive.

The entitlement of the younglins these days. I swear, they are getting soft. I have to take the current year, and add twenty, but the lazy ass youth just have to subtract their birth year from the current year. Maths will suffer because they don’t have to do addition. Pure insanity and liberal malarkey.
Oh yeah, /s
So, er, what does a poop emoji mean?
And that is the sheer absurdity: doom as a device driver. Sheer and unabashedly luncacy, because why the fuck not. I approve
Heretic
I am pretty sure that your goal qualifies as evil chaotic. Not because the game is evil, but because the platform is Emacs. I mean, everyone knows it’s Vim.
This comment is the one we should be talking about. We all lack empathy, at least politically and socially.
Plenty of people who have had children and raised them are against paying school taxes after their kids leave school. The number of times I have heard Grand parents talk about unfair it is that they have to pay taxes on schools is insane. Source: lived in a community where the average age was 72.
Most underrated comment
Conversation with right, left, middle, whatever are only productive if based on a principalled ideology. I disagree with the NeoCons of Bush and Cheney, but at least there is an ideology to work with. MAGA, on the other hand is defined by no principals other than authoritarian aims of “winning” where “winning” is making the other side mad.
The post truth world we live in makes this hard, though. Right now there is no shared truth, and with varied truthinesses out there, it makes the conversation hard. Using flat earthers as an example, the sheer rejection of math and science is astounding; having a principalled conversation is hard when the foundations are different.
And with 24hr news, breaking news, and global news, and only so much news worthy content, there is an incentive to come with with differentiation and that creates eco chambers. News Max isn’t going to bring on a CNN contributor (and vice versa) to challenge their views.
More underrated comment. This country has lost political literacy in what liberal, progressive, conservative, etc meaning. I saw a clip of Darth Cheney talking when he was in the first Bush Admin and he making solidly conservative points, talking about the consent of the governed and legitimacy. You would never see that type of conversation on any of the Sunday morning shows; you just see the culture wars. I was shocked to see this past Meet the Press had J.D. Vance making well reasoned arguments.
IMO, the labels are short hands that cause people to immediately turn off their brains. Leftist in American Politics is a meaningless slur. And most conservatives don’t realize that the current flavor is actually Neoconservative.
I mean, to be fair, how many real people can post 600 times a day?
RIF is working this morning. I use it in as a lurker, and everything is working as before – no errors or 429 and it works for NSFW. I wonder if they did a rollback.
This lacks nuance. We weren’t interested because billionaires could and did die, but the uniqueness in how they were lost and died. I am no billionaire apologist, but the migrants died a common death; the migrant drownings have been common for years. Does that make it less tragic? Fuck, no, it doesn’t and it shouldn’t.
But with our intermestic news, we loss focus. Those in the Medeterrian should have had news about the 750 souls that perished. But for the North Americans, the news of the sub was culturally significant. So let’s not lose the nuance. It had nothing to do with billionaires, but that NA are culturally primed to care about all things Titanic.
Obama was talking to a Greek audience and called out that people were more interested in the Titan. Had he been speaking to a North American audience he would have likely called out the lack of attention on the Southern border. The reality is that Obama is speaking to the audience.
The other issue is that the Titan is overwhelmingly unique. And that makes it news worthy. Right or wrong, when something is common we stop paying attention. So the problem is not that we were interested in the Titan trajecty, but that we lost interest in the migrant crisis for Europe and the US. The problem is that for most, they don’t know. The injustice is not in the fact that billionaires died, but that the uniqueness of how the billionaires died caught our attention.
More to your point, the reason we are so interested is in the uniqueness of the situation. For the North Americans this the Titanic is culturally significant. For Europe, the migrant issue is local news. The problem is that our news is blended.
I would my money on Prigozhin. Putin has a broken army and the Wagner’s are pissed. Russians on Russian fighting is not going to bode well, especially when one side is very angry.
Technically the truth. It’s a paramilitary coup.
That’s justification for a negligence claim. Staying that your sub meets or exceeds a standard and knowing the view port wasn’t certified to those depths is the very definition of negligence. And then knowing the vessel was only a single use and using multiple times seems like a really good claim on manslaughter. Rush is lucky he’s dead.
Or a docker container.
