Does Australia not have fixed rate mortgages?

For anyone else looking to "get this on their radar" so to speak, it's apparently called Dark Angel in some catalogs.

Because legal discovery data retrieval is almost entirely automated. You are always going to end up with some irrelevant shit in there because it matched a keyword search somebody used for discovery.

Source: I used to do this when companies I worked for got subpoenas for email data.

It’s definitely in the top 50! Not sure exactly though, let me go find a list so I know what to think.

Ok that’s funny. I hope this is a signal that these ranked lists have jumped the shark.

This is like a freshman psychology student diagnosing people. Knows enough to be dangerous, but still very wrong.

Society would be better off if these people didn't exist anymore. They think our patience with their bullshit is limitless but honestly, a lot of us are fed up with the constant attacks and ready to fight back. Mostly I hate them for even making me feel like this in the first place.

Too late. I'm on linux now. Enjoy your Palantir cloud of genocide or whatever it is you're into now, Satya.

The only frustrating thing about my Miele dishwasher was that I couldn't tell if it was on or not. I loved that thing.

I was a subscriber to Consumer Reports for years and trusted them implicitly because they seemed so thorough and rigorous. Then they did reviews on a subject with which I am intimately familiar (it was computer related), and I was shocked at how badly they fumbled just about everything. I've also seen some really dubious ratings on high ticket items like cars that I knew were not great, so I take their ratings with grain of salt anymore.

The fact that Whirlpool is even on this list makes it a joke to me. I will say I've had a Miele dishwasher in the past and it was fucking awesome, and have heard great things about a lot of Bosch appliances. But LG and Whirlpool frequently put out trash appliances.

 

Anybody know what setting I need to modify to make weather radar sites work in Librewolf? I've tried several from my local news sites, NOAA, aviation sites, etc. They all just show a blank box where the radar graphics would be. I've tried enabling WebGL and checking canvas permissions which they don't seem to want anyway. Not sure what else could be causing this.

I only have two plugins, Bitwarden and UBlock Origin, and I tried turning UBlock off for some of the sites to no effect, so I'm thinking it has to be a Librewolf setting. The sites work fine in vanilla Firefox.

 

Even though I played for many hours after the 1.0 release last year... huh?

 

You screamed at me

I looked up wishing

Small clouds obscure

All paths to us

Some tomorrow
  I will find a different sky,

Look again for you,
  and disappear in the blue.

Switched to Linux a little over a year ago and it's been great, but one thing eludes me. What's the best way to do the following when you don't use Windows or MacOS?

  1. Manage music collection - on Windows I used iTunes to sync my mp3's to the phone. Is there a linux solution?

  2. Manage SMS from desktop - I'd like to be able to read and reply to SMS messages on my iPhone from the linux PC right in front of me instead of this rinky dink iPhone soft keyboard. Is this possible?

And how the hell does anyone but a child type on an iPhone anyway, while we're at it? (rhetorical) Grrrr.

Thanks!

 

I would love to hear stories about how you came up with whatever unique name you call your SO. Nothing graphic and don’t doxx yourself, I just think some nice stories like that would be fun for everyone in these ridiculous times.

 

My cats fully agree with this assessment.

 

I don't miss those days. Restaurants were the worst. Yes, your smoke is able to go over the invisible nonexistent fucking barrier between your seats and mine.

 

A huge win for animal rights. It's not perfect, but we shouldn't let the absence of perfection get in the way of celebrating progress.

This guy went to great lengths to acquire the thing (and the company that makes the thing) that ultimately killed him.

 

Also has croutons and baby bella mushrooms. Shredded carrots. Lots of green peppers. I like green peppers.
