But actually just gold colored that flakes off in a year. Symbolic of everything he does.

Have you tried the newest release? It seems to be more PS leaning, at least that’s what I hear from PS experts.

They seemed fast, but it’s just because they worked in packs, so the one that got you was there the whole time.

To be fair, a lot of those are due to a Windows legacy of dominating the market, which isn’t going to change until there are more people elsewhere. It’s a bit of a catch-22, and yet even being a small percent use in desktop Linux has started to get distros that feel and run similar to Windows enough so people who don’t dabble in Windows specific software don’t miss it. It’s also a bit much to weigh Windows as better in many of those above features when it still have its own issues often, even though it is the dominate and supported OS.

I laughed at your last part. I have never not had to do the same for Windows as I have for Linux when a problem pops up. Google the problem. Those troubleshooters are such a waste of time, and honestly the only time I’ve had an automated fix that worked to resolve a situation was in Linux via purging the old driver and reloading it. The Windows troubleshooter is like the first tier on a tech support line, where you tell them, yeah, I already did all that.

“Initializing security sweep.”

“Security scan finished. All databases wiped clean.”

If she is streaming what she’d be doing anyway and gets paid for just being online, that’s a great way for a bit of extra income for just having fun. Don’t get burnt out that way, and if you decide to do it less or stop, not a huge loss either.

I didn’t pay attention and now noticed it was a UK story, but isn’t it telling that it still was a common observance regardless of where you are. But I think the UK citizens got treated a bit better than the US, where $400 per household was going to break the country and was meant to cover rent and food for…months.

Maybe they should have taken a different route to maintain the economy. Which was the supposed point of these business loans (certainly there wasn’t a deeper plan to fleece the country) How could we have applied billions of those wasted dollars differently? Well, we determined we couldn’t give more than a few hundred dollars to all people directly because they would find a way to fake needing it, like they do welfare and voting and needing help, so yeah. I don’t know.

Trying to imagine how my employer would feel if I left my job early without doing the work.

Appropriate, I guess. It is fraud. I just wonder for every person who gets convicted (have there been a lot?) there’s a bunch more, probably even larger companies who got away with a lot under the poorly regulated guise of government pandemic assistance.

The great thing about Coldplay is they’ve changed over the years, which of course pisses some off who liked one style and now expect it every time. I don’t like some of their songs, but the songs I do like I enjoy. The era of Clocks and Speed of Sound and Scientist were solid. There have been a few later ones I like too, but the songs either click for you or not. That’s how music should be, eclectic and not formula.

I think the last song of theirs that hit me hard was All I Can Think About is You. May not be everyone’s type of song, but it felt like the Coldplay I like. And there’s the sleeper The Hardest Part.

Americans threw it. There is plenty of blame to go around, and guess what? That’s all anyone is doing now, pointing fingers at each other while the house burns down. Good job.

To be fair, we didn’t have these huge spikes in things like CO2 and methane until we started measuring them, so maybe if we stop looking…let’s pass around the paper bags to put our heads into collectively.

Are the migrants wanting handouts he refers to the ones who are working low paying physical jobs that Americans refuse to do, sending most of that money back to their families still in their native countries? What a bunch of freeloaders. /s

No point in research, we can obviously see that people die in floods. /s

Con-Air remake?

Was that country fine with this, or is it a matter of getting the flight there before they realize?

You don’t have to be intelligent to ruin things. Look at Trump.

At least a thinking machine would have a reason for doing what it might do, instead of bumbling along and overshooting any safeguards left. Which given Musk’s attitude, Grok would be the first and last safeguard for everything. So yeah, this is worse than Terminator.

I’ve seen this movie.

“The only way to keep things from crashing is to plug Skynet Grok in.”

How many nukes going off does it take to ruin everyone’s day? One. Modern rationalization is “maybe if we make it small enough”, no, it’s still one. Not only because it’s an environmental disaster even if small, but it crosses a line and once crossed, lines move around a lot. The last thing needed is a nuclear detonation and the world’s countries analyze it and determine, “well, it was terrible, but not THAT terrible. Maybe two is the limit.”

What do you call someone who sits at the table with a fascist? Even if they verbally disagree with them.
