I remember a student in class threw a fit about not being able to cite the Bible as a source. She showed the professor a website demonstrating how to cite the Bible in APA format as “proof” that the Bible can in fact be cited.

Back in the day, a soda was a special treat, but then it became something people drink like water. Then companies started putting ass-partame and other garbage in it so people could continue drinking dessert for hydration and supposedly not put on weight.

I have a mini PC for gaming and originally installed Mint, but switched to Bazzite to see if it would fix an issue with my XBox controllers cutting out. It didn’t, and I also didn’t notice any better performance in games. After coming to the conclusion I’d have to rebase to uninstall Steam (I only use Lutris), I decided immutable is cool, but I’ll stick with Mint.

It sucks being put on the spot to donate to a charity I haven’t researched, but I’ve also been a cashier and hated being forced to ask people shit like this.

So are they getting a different award for using AI and ending up with something that isn’t slop?

Pretty bad luck on the timing for Steam Machine. Hope Valve can still pull it off, but not sure they’re going to be able to hit a price point where it’s worth buying.

DNF makes me so sad to this day.

See, we’re trying to be green. Keep giving us money and don’t feel bad. We sure don’t.

Couldn’t agree more with all of that. Then there are the scumbag bail bond companies where you’re out a substantial sum to borrow enough money to make bail if you’re unlucky enough not to have the full bail amount sitting in the bank.

Years ago, I read about a guy who rode his bike past a house that was being robbed. The police acquired data from Google placing him in the area at that time. While he didn’t do anything wrong and had nothing to hide, I assume he had to hire a lawyer and go through a time-consuming and stressful process to prove his innocence. That was the turning point for me where I began focusing heavily on privacy.

Got a cheap LCD 64GB one on sale then put in a 1 TB SSD, and I love it. This form factor in the $300s is about right. Much more than that and it’s not really worth it for low-end graphics on a small screen.
