I don’t necessarily disagree, but I feel like its worth pointing out that gerrymandering was first used in Massachusetts.

Sometimes devs are pretty good at their games. Other times, they bring QA who are typically really good at their games.

There’s no monopoly on the government-intelligence-villain look

The literal elephant in the room is Mastodon, the open source, decentralized social network that’s been around since 2016, years before Bluesky existed. While the platforms share similar goals, they use different protocols, making it difficult for the platforms to work together.

Quick, someone link the xkcd

As someone in my early 40s, I can confirm that 50 year olds were born almost 100 years ago. Right? …right??

I’m a die-hard AC fan, but typically only play through the game/story once and then put it on the shelf. This year, I picked up the UbiWhatever subscription at $15/mo, played through AC Mirage in a couple of weeks, and dropped the subscription. It’s even better than waiting for a sale!

Not who you’re replying to but yes, Synology will let you automate backups to a cloud/service (and you definitely should!)

Are Americans really more lazy/inconsiderate people?

American here. The answer is emphatically “yes”.

Right? I do it all the

I set up a test rig with Fedora to see how the gaming went and didn’t have any issues with Steam or a handful of AAA games. Of note though, my test machine has an AMD GPU so I didn’t have to deal with any Nvidia driver shenanigans.

He’s supposed to. Given his track-record, I wouldn’t be surprised if he flat-out omits the almost certain skeletons in his investor closet. If the prosecution can catch him in one of those lies however, there could be fireworks…
