Looking for a similar dude....

There's a comedian that currently kinda looks like this guy did around 2006. The wife and I think the comedian showed up on @ftermidnight (when it was still on) at some point.

Similar hair and facial structure, iirc a quirky kind of humor.

We're drunk and having no luck. Any help?

Edit: the guy we're thinking of is younger than the pic and has brown hair.

Ok, honestly, is cast-iron really any better than a non-stick, stainless, copper (anything else?) pan?

To me, someone who celebrates a bit more of the spectrum than most: Metal hot. Make food hot.

Non-stick means easier cleanup, but my wife seems to think cast-iron is necessary for certain things (searing a prime rib roast, for example.).

After I figure those out, then I gotta figure out gas vs. electric vs. induction vs infrared....

What are the "for" and "against" arguments for California's Prop 50?

Every election in Washington State is preceeded by an informational booklet that lists out the candidates and ballot measures being voted on. Candidates list their qualifications, experience, volunteering experience, and a brief statement. Ballot measures include what the measure is for, an argument from the "pro" side, an argument from the "against" side, and rebuttals to each argument.

Does California have a similar summary book? Iif so, I'd love to see what it says for Prop 50!

Steam Deck desktop and Mozilla VPN problems

I'm hoping someone may be able to help with an issue I'm having:

I can install Mozilla VPN through desktop mode using the app store flatpak installer. I go through the setup and it works OK.
If I exit desktop mode and then come back to it later, I have to reinstall Mozilla VPN and go through setup again.

Is there a trick to installing Mozilla VPN on the Steam Deck so that it stays installed between reboots? I don't recall having this problem after installing Firefox or Chrome or Edge.

If orange Hitler is going to post AI images of him being a "hero", it seems only right to counterpoint his images with images of him bukkake'd by minorities, acting as a human toilet, etc.

For clarity, the AI-generated images would only be necessary until the actual images come out. I can all-but-guarantee that, were AI images like that released, Drumpf himself would post the real incriminating ones to prove it's not as bad as the AI ones.

What is your favorite celebrity-lifetime story arc?

For example, my runner-up is Ice-T: A notorious gangster rapper and "Cop Killer" singer currently in his 25th year in the role of CSI detective for the NYPD.
My top spot goes to Snoop Dogg: notorious gangster rapper and marijuana enthusiast who is now besties with Martha Stewart and in demand for cameo voice-overs in children's programming.

Of course, if schadenfreude is your thing, there's legendary comedian-cum-rapist monster Bill Cosby, or the recent falls of any number of the now mask-off nazis permeating the media.....

So, what is your favorite real-person character arc?
