Wait wait wait. You're telling me everyone just shuts the fuck up for a whole day? Sounds magical.

Trump skips FBI background checks for controversial cabinet picks – report
This breaks decades-old norms meant to vet candidates for criminal history and conflicts of interest.
Come the fuck on. The FBI background checks are a "norm" too? Do we have actual laws for anything?

‘There will always be people like you’: Tekken boss blasts ‘disrespectful’ fan for criticising character’s new look
“While 98% of the fans are welcoming this, there will always be people like you,” Harada replied. “I understand and sympathize that it may not suit your personal taste, but if you prefer the old design, past works already exist. I am not taking those away from you.
“Also, you refer to yourself as ‘Anna fans’, as if you represent all Anna fans, but you should express your opinion as an individual.”
“You threaten to quit if she isn’t brought back, you complain the moment she is brought back,” he explained. “You demand that she be reverted after she has been completely redesigned from scratch, including her model and framework. And if she actually were reverted, you’d just say, ‘that’s recycling’.
“Either way, your method of expressing your opinion and the content of your argument are entirely unconstructive, utterly pointless, and, above all, disrespectful to the other Anna fans who are genuinely looking forward to her.”
I appreciate you Harada.

BREAKING: Warner Bros. Games is shutting down Monolith Productions, Player First Games, and WB San Diego, sources tell Bloomberg News.
Sure is great that they patented the Nemesis system just to do nothing with it for the better part of a decade then shut down the studio that invented it. Brilliant use of talent and the US patent system there.

No, seriously, you don't have to build everything from scratch by yourself. Other people write code too.

American tourist arrested in Japan for defacing a religious shrine
I could have guessed he was over 60 because he wasn't live streaming the whole thing. Just an old school asshole, not an influencer.

Also my collection of hobbies seems to match up well with the people who nuked their post history after the API-ocalypse. Even when I get good search results I click through and... so many deleted comments...

Microsoft just deleted Windows 11's 32GB RAM recommendation docs, as prices soar and it rushes to sell 8GB RAM PCs
8GB wouldn't get me through a cold boot and the stack of corporate mandated spyware security agents.

YSK this is professor Marion Nestle. She is 89. This woman is a hero. She spent her entire career fighting against the food industry and pesticide industry

‘The Community Is In Chaos:’ WordPress.org Now Requires You Denounce Affiliation With WP Engine To Log In

What a weird thing to do! They can sue each other until the cows come home for all I care but dragging the community into it like this comes off as petty imo. Musky even.

Question about Antivirus
The person posting about a RAT is either unwell or trolling, dumping paragraphs of nonsense and screenshots that don't actually show anything. Don't let it get to you.
You can run ClamAV if you feel you need to, it's fine. Install packages using your distro's package manager. Don't install random binaries or package repositories until you understand where the software is actually coming from. Job done.

Found an 1oz of Iron at this parking lot.
It's a wheel weight. Somebody has a wheel that is now slightly out of balance.

YouTuber Karl Jobst to pay more than $230,000 to Donkey Kong record holder Billy Mitchell in defamation ruling
Billy Mitchell is an asshole and Karl Jobst is yet another YouTube outrage peddler, just video game flavored this time. I have a hard time mustering sympathy for either of them.

You're telling me I can now comfortably play Satisfactory from my couch? This is going to have a profoundly negative effect on my health

'I can't drink the water' - life next to a US data centre
"Our goal is that by 2030, we'll be putting more water back into the watersheds and communities where we're operating data centres, than we're taking out," says Will Hewes, global water stewardship lead at Amazon Web Services (AWS), which runs more data centres than any other company globally.
How can this possibly make sense? Mine owner says, "by 2030 we'll be putting more gold into the ground than we're taking out!" I can only assume this is some carbon credits style of nonsense.
