Linux has its own weird implicit copy paste on the mouse - pressing the wheel pastes the last thing you selected.

It depends though - if you’re copy pasting between programs, you’re probably using your mouse already, so it’s good that the buttons are there. But if you’re writing or editing text, you probably have your hands on the keyboard, so you need the shortcut there as well.

That would be in every thread, from the most pro-communism to the most anti-communism threads.

That’s still my favorite EU legislation. The price that is displayed must be equal (or higher, discounts are still allowed) to the price that you pay. Taxes, tips, fees, everything must be included in the price.

34, Slovenia, same story.

There’s nothing “inexpensive” about that though.

On the other hand, I recently started doing the other kind of magic with cards. That sounds really cheap, all you need is a $5 deck of Bicycle cards, some YouTube tutorials, and you’re all set. Turns out, that can be a money sink as well if you decide to go deep (or wide) enough. Still far less than MTG though.

A Windows version becomes considered “good” the exact moment a next version is released. No sooner, no later. Those are the rules.

No Niles?

I was a pretty big fan of Frasier so I’ll probably try to see at least one episode (when I can get it in Europe), but I don’t have hopes up. It seems nobody else does either.

On the other hand, Rodney Trotter? This just seems weird.

Can confirm, not in retail but a fully remote programmer, managers are still very often concerned that “everybody has something to do” much more than “everything gets done”.

Neverball seems far less known than the other ones, but it’s really good and has tons of levels.

Are there good UIs/tilesets for Nethack these days?

Definitely Neverball. My kids and I spent so many hours in it.

OpenTTD is good, so is TuxKart, but both have better closed-source alternatives. I don’t think Neverball does.

Just more proof that it was never about mRNA.

That is the opposite of unpopular.

People, not things. America didn’t have man-rated rockets between 2012 and 2020.

Except the time when Rogozin was in charge, at least.

As a trans person, would you rather go to a beach where nobody is armed, or to a beach where everybody might be armed?

That is in the books too. It’s called a “Seldon crisis”, where the Foundation has only one possible way forward as means of keeping it close to the original plan.

It’s a trade-off, so it depends on both how good the pay is and how opposed the company is.

I’m currently working for a crypto company, and have worked for other similar ones in the past, and these all tend to be libertarian types which I don’t agree with, but they pay well.

On the other hand, a previous employer tried to get Saudi Aramco as a client, and I made it clear that I would not support this. Fortunately those talks didn’t come anywhere.

So yes, there’s certainly a line.

It’s not about the book, it’s not even about sexuality. Yes these are the justifications they use, but at the core it’s all about finding someone they can hurt, and they found you. The cruelty is the point.

It is debated whether it was necessary, but the position that it was wrong is self-contradictory.

It assumes that the atomic bombs were not a huge factor in the decision to surrender, as they would surrender anyway due to conventional warfare (US bombing and USSR attacking and removing the best negotiating venue for a conditional surrender). Which might be true. But, at the same time it assumes that the nuclear bombs were somehow worse than the conventional bombing that has been going on. So the atomic bombs had to be both ineffectual and hugely damaging at the same time.
