I think so, but it was a temporary position when it was accepted, so it always had an expiration date

My graveyard of abandoned games grows almost as quickly as my library.

I recognize this as novelty-seeking behavior, but I think I’m discerning enough now that I get my money’s worth, generally speaking.

This is why I shamelessly cheat in single player games. Most of the time I’m just trying to make the game more fun for myself, and one of those ways is to skip past the parts I don’t enjoy.

This definitely backfires sometimes, but if I can squeeze more enjoyment out of it before I put it down (almost certainly forever), I will.

No shame in it, it seemed impossible for them to fuck it up as spectacularly as they did.

With a huge drippin hog

Good point, they never really got past that, huh

You were making good points, what happened?

A random Better Homes and Gardens article clocks a 2000 square ft (185 square meters) home with central air conditioning at nearly 19,000 watts.

So I think most homes could handle that in general, but I don’t know about specific wiring requirements to handle that kind of power draw from just the kitchen. So do these things require that level of retrofit?

I agree with you here. They just never kept up with what people wanted or needed out of a communications platform. When Discord showed it was more versatile nearly 10 years ago, my whole group switched and never looked back.

Skype call sounds still bring specific kinds of nostalgia though.

I don’t want to fight my countrymen, I want to fight those assholes in power.

My bad, I thought the original comment was about tracking cars, not the cameras.

Ah, gotcha, I thought it was a sincere argument about tracking people’s vehicles.

Most of the time I don’t worry about assassinations because I mostly avoid doing things that make people want to kill me. It’s a decent philosophy that has served me well for decades.

Aggregating location data is very different from having a picture taken in public, wouldn’t you agree?

Wtf, since when?

We’re on the DSM 5 now, they recategorized that one to just “brain damage: fascist”

They were so close to being heroes. The same people, I assume, who could never join the military because they would punch out the drill instructor.

US ships don’t wait around to enter the Suez. They coordinate with the US consulate in Egypt to ensure timely transits. Despite all of the technology and lookout requirements, these giant ships are still ponderously slow to maneuver, so my assumption is that this collision occurred due to emergent factors like changing weather conditions rather than just simple human error.

That’s part of the absurdity here. Mump is arguing that Congress doesn’t appropriate money for agencies, they simply set the ceiling for how much money those agencies or programs should receive. It is the president, he says, who decides the floor for that number. Apparently every other president we’ve had just went along with Congress, I guess? Only this stable genius figured out this one loophole that Congresspeople hate!

Thanks, dumbass! 🤣
