Too late, there's a video clearly showing that she was the victim.

Just the DL?
How does someone's gender affect their ability to operate a motor vehicle?

Every time someone organically refers to their computer as an Apple or Mac, an Apple marketing executive creams their pants.

Do they not realize the ones installing their security devices are also the same people they are trying to protect against?

I have only lived with this 49" monitor for about 3 weeks now. It's oled, better than my previous 32" Samsung, but not a huge improvement - mainly better blacks. My work flow was 3 monitors with 3 different applications: file/folder/misc - browser | IDE - Inspector. With one monitor I pulled inspector into the browser and split the screen with my IDE. It's much nicer, workflow wise.

Also versus a multi-monitor setup, I think it's mostly superior, although I do prefer having vertical side monitors. It's less power and less draw on my card. My GPU is basically getting the same FPS ( maybe 10 FPS less) for running in 5120 by 1440p. I haven't tried anything demanding yet, Hell Let Loose ran around 60+ FPS. - currently playing Divinity 2 @ Ultra with an old 5700 and getting between 60-70 FPS.

But a nice 32"+ single monitor also works very well, if you don't need a large space to work in. IMO if you need that 3 monitor setup, it's worth it.

I recently picked up a 49" MSI OLED monitor and it has a built program to prevent burn in. I've only had it for a week, but it's so much better than 3 monitors imo. I used it mainly for work, and a little gaming. No issues with either.

Basically do the same thing. Until a game hits $20 or less, I won't purchase it. For $70, I would rather buy something useful like new shoes.

African or European?

 

I met the Dead Milkmen in Houston 1990. I think it was the Axiom?

They played pool with me and a few female friends from UH before the gig. I recognized the singer and the band, they seemed more interested in talking with the girls. At this point I think "Punk Rock Girl" had been on MTV maybe a year, but none of the girls had seen it or recognized them if they did. So we played pool, I don't remember who won. Then they excused themselves and the show started.

The venue was pretty small and it was a tight show. They did a cover of the Misfits "Astro Zombies" iirc. and maybe a few other covers. They came down after the show and talked to the girls.

Anyways this the the first song off the first Dead Milkmen album I purchased.

At least there's still a chance for profit, just got to sell some flowers

 

FB Marketplace Scam. There's a second where they get your phone number and send you a "confirmation" link which apparently will confirm you are changing an account over to them. Not sure what account, as my phone provider auto blocks these scam links.

This one is pretty stupid. Instead of venmo'ing the cash to their "relative" who is coming to my place to pick up the item. They expect me to accept the Venmo on my end, then wait 1-3 business days before actually being able to get the cash for the product. At which point there is no cash. They continually try the scam even when I say it's cash only.

Also if you inspect these profiles they are generally one image and zero information. These are all from fake accounts which they delete /get banned periodically.
