He also just sucks. After the interview he did with Jon Stewart on his podcast, I really knew more than ever what an empty shell of a person he was. I was ambivalent before that but that was the final straw I think. He needs to go. We need real leadership in the Democratic party and he's not it.

I assure you they won't. It's not going to be that expensive to only show an option if you're in California. Companies already do this with other things like privacy related stuff.

If the company is already a scumbag company that makes it impossible to cancel, this will only stop them where they have to follow a law.

I definitely remember those trips and cherish them. I didn't get to go until I was a bit older and those first few times were absolutely incredible. That's an incredibly cynical take tbh. Some people just want to share the things they loved with their kids. Reducing it down to "they just want to brag" just sounds very bitter.

You spend most of it getting there depending on where you're coming from. Family of 4 flying to Europe from the West Coast of the US? Yeah that's gonna be an expensive flight.

Could look into Dacentec if you need more cheap servers. I use them for my stuff. YMMV since you're getting a hell of a lot more traffic than I am but they haven't blocked Cloudflare on mine yet so that's a plus. :)

So my question is, whose name is on the seedbox? I've seen people say this...is it one of the special hosts that will just send you a notice and not tell the complaint filer who you are? Connecting to a VPN or proxy has been easy enough and cheaper lol.

Yeah they can turn that off but choose not to. Just saying. Company making the software hopes you'll leave it on and the business owners hope you'll pay their employees for them.

I've played fairly casually since Destiny 2 (I played the first game a lot more and the 2nd launched in a very sorry state). They should have ended the game with The Final Shape. This new stuff is dumb and I couldn't even give enough fucks to complete the new campaign which I always have done even playing causally. I think that was the final nail in the coffin.

This game never drew me into the grinding cycle because it wasn't worth the time. Grind for gear for hours... To what end? It's just min maxing. First game you could get broken special shit from the raids. Now? I don't have 4 hours to sit and do that for some random junk that's not really different from the other junk that usually drops.

This is so many people. It's astounding. So many people just seem completely overwhelmed at all times no matter where they are or what they're doing and cannot simply prepare for what comes next. I suspect a large part of it is they're just distracted on their phone like zombies.

This is how the Internet has always been imo. You're running into the same trolls we've been dealing with since we first got on the fucking Internet. Some people just cannot interact with others without being rude as fuck because they're jaded assholes. So what if you've seen the same thing 80 times? Move along if you don't care.

I feel for you. Being a computer nerd in general, I've had to deal with this antisocial behavior forever. You really wonder why they even bother to go to places like this if they hate other people so much. I think it's just because they want to lord over others because that's all they have.

Our Democrat governor signed it. Why she signed this I still don't really understand. She's been using her veto power quite a bit and yet this one gets to go through. Ridiculous.

Have you used Plex before? No they don't need to know anything. They sign up and you grant them access (or even just give them a user in your home and they just sign in by texting you a code). It is as easy or easier than signing into your typical streaming app. Just extremely easy. Jellyfin is great and I hope they keep going but they're not at the same level as Plex. I've been using Plex for nearly a decade now and I've tried out jellyfin a few times. I'll keep trying because I don't want to use Plex forever but I'm not going to pretend they're the same. Hopefully they will be eventually.

Yeah this is very much not that they don't understand there's a better way. It's that they don't care to look up how. It's pretty common. People just go oh I don't know computers and you get whatever random crap they could throw together with zero effort lol.

And that's surely why it was originally called Phoenix!

There's a downgrade utility for a reason lol. You always have that option and it's not particularly hard to use. Most of the time it's fine but yeah shit like this does happen from time to time.

They're not throttling, it's just a really shitty USB controller (what they were using with lightning). Still sad imo but ultimately who the hell is even using the USB port on their phone to transfer data?

Thing is, I'm sure they do. But they're middle management so they can't do shit about it. Executives that think this stupid shit up have their heads so far up their ass they don't understand how incredibly dumb their ideas for what AI does actually are.

That's not a requirement. You can make payments without one though the odds of approval aren't great. If the actual real card numbers got leaked, you need to cancel that card. Also if they actually leaked REAL card numbers, Epic is going to be in deep shit with the card brands.

This article has no real details though so we'll see. I kind of doubt this is legit.

John Birch society still exists?? Huh TIL

Kindles are cheap. That's pretty much it. I don't think it's a great mystery. Amazon subsidizes their hardware to get you into their ecosystem even more.
