AOC had to walk so Mamdani could run. Not only proving DSA candidates were electable, but also that they could actually do the job by being pragmatic (for better or worse).

Never in a million years would I let my kid transition... to being a Floridian.

Sexism might be an easy answer, but let's not forget that AOC is a rep with a small district, and got around 100k votes. Mamdani represents millions of New Yorkers and curried more than a million votes in his election. Mayor is also a much broader executive position than being one of 438 reps.

Point being, Mamdani's election/position comes with a lot more mandate than AOC's, regardless of gender.

Original comment missed GPU, yeah that looks like a fine deal for a decent gaming rig.

Only thing that makes the Steam Machine really interesting is the form factor and integration, maybe future targeting by game devs for optimization.

I think a lot of Mel Brooks and Zucker comedies (Naked Gun et. al.) have aged pretty well with their absurd and physical comedy although they can definitely fall flat sometimes.

Christmas Vacation also comes to mind. I think everyone can still relate to the holiday family dynamic.

Even older can still be good - thinking like His Girl Friday style screwball comedies, or Desk Set, Some Like it Hot etc. They still work as comedy, you'll laugh, but they may also require a bit more cultural context to really enjoy, or interest in the period/fashion.

There's a new medical procedure that needs to be done only once. Kinetic injection of lead to the brain. So simple it can be self administered, or with the help of a friend in line of sight.

Green pool Trump is blathering about vs. a manufactured immigrant crisis, the mental decline of someone that is no longer in office, or a murder that happened two years ago...

Hmm, weird.

Was there drama with D? I'm out of the loop...

Have some examples? I wouldn't be surprised but the last time I watched I didn't hear anything that I considered problematic. Admittedly, I'm willing to forgive a lot of generalization when characters are walking caricatures and say crazy shit regularly.

Good list. I think the only one I'd disagree with is Mallrats. Clerks is still brilliant, but last time I put on Mallrats it didn't hit at all.

This is definitely about the D language, I just haven't heard anything about in a long time (since Rust ate its lunch) and nothing about it using AI or long time devs leaving.

I find this image hilarious, but Dr. Who is so wholesome most of the time it's hard for me to imagine Sisko getting more than mildly annoyed by his antics.

I dunno, STDs had to come from somewhere and lacking basic cleanliness tech (e.g. soap, much less any other treatment) would make them really hard to treat. Also, before religion made sex shameful and taboo, I bet cave tribes got freaky at a prodigious rate.

I think M-M-Monster Kill is more appropriate, even if it's just one guy.

Do you think benchmark results like these are meaningful when comparing Linux distributions?

Almost never. Bumping the minimum architecture version and optimization levels is all well and good, but unless you're doing tons of vector oriented workloads it's not going to qualitatively make a difference.

Yeah, not a tankie but the PRC and the USSR were huge in lifting hundreds of millions out of poverty and generally creating stability in parts of the world that effectively still practiced feudalism.

Doesn't make them anti-imperial or excuse their more disastrous/evil decisions either.

Man Tragically Unaware He Possesses Among The Top 5 Most Beautiful Assholes In America

Not to be too much of a downer, but all of these cute Google search results and other "quirky" "fun" things billion dollar corporations do used to seem so harmless but now it just reads like a friendly logo on a baby mulching machine.

Perfect headline.
