Am I the only one that sees the flaccid wang?

InfoWars the company is being transferred. The InfoWars X account is staying with InfoWars. Legally speaking, there’s no change of ownership here, Musk is delusional.

Problem is when things like Kerbal Space Program 2 happen, and they release a buggy mess and charge full price for it and then abandon the project.

I feel like established publishers (Take 2, Codemasters come to mind) should be specifically excluded from the Early Access program, or perhaps price limits should be imposed on games in the program…

My very large organisation has Gimp available for basic image manipulation. I’ve tried to get them to use Paint.NET instead, but nooooo… Apparently we like hitting nails with jackhammers around here

I don’t think I’ve ever had this feeling, to be honest.

I really, really wish we could degender “guy” and “guys”. I know plenty of people of all genders that use the words in general to describe people, objects, concepts, everything. The only holdouts are people that insist on it specifically meaning males. Ironically, these people are often the hardcore feminists.

If other English words can change their meanings and be claimed/reclaimed by certain groups, why can’t others?

Take guy! Use it to describe whatever you want! Free it of its historically phallic shackles!

I have a Boox Nova Air. It’s a 7" B&W e-reader. It’s nice to have a boring Android tablet that also happens to be an e-reader.

I wouldn’t recommend ePaper for anything but the very lightest of web browsing. The like refresh rate really is a lot to take in.

Using the pen is nice. It feels a lot like black magic, really. It’s just like drawing on paper.

If like to get a colour version to read comics, but let’s face it, I can’t even remember where my current one is, let alone the last time I turned it on…

I would say my Sega GameGear, but I just went to turn it on, aaaaaaand it’s probably well past time to replace the caps. And screen. And motherboard…

I liked them. I also really enjoyed playing 3D games on the 3DS, especially the 3D-ified 16bit games.

Then you are a good agent! My last job was for the ATO, processing tax returns & activity statements, managing written-off debt, doing the call centre stuff. I got a pretty bad taste in my mouth from some of the tax agent stuff I saw going on. Especially those big firms, especially eTax. Agents like yourself with business tax returns and activity statements were almost universally legends to deal with.

So many of my current colleagues absolutely insist that they must use a tax agent because it’s all so complicated. “Do you have investments? Rental income? Run a side hustle? No? Then just go to myGov”

…only to find out that they just went straight back to their dodgy agent.

You missed the “for my use case” part. I won’t go into all the details, but browser and search are pretty much the only things that I can ditch at the moment.

Unfortunately, degoogled Android is still… Android. That OS has been made considerably less fun and enjoyable over the last few years by Google themselves, regardless of any of their additional services. :(

It’s almost like you didn’t read my post at all…

Electricity distribution/supply networks

It’s not just the media that gets this wrong, but politicians (who should absolutely know better). The whole reason the grid is such a mess is because capitalist types come up with some fever dream for extracting more value from consumers, and then this is sold through the media as “more choice” when the reality is that there’s literally no choice being made anywhere. You can’t choose your generator, distribution network, or metering provider. You can choose your energy retailer, but the electrons coming out of your power socket are the same. Your smart meter absolutely does not allow you to save money, any more than Amazon sales do when they Jack up the prices immediately before said sale.

Taxes

Good god there’s a lot of misinformation out there. In Australia at least, you almost certainly do not need to see a tax agent to do your taxes.

I am slowly switching back to Firefox since Google are nerfing ad blockers in Chromium. I’m switching to DuckDuckGo since their search results have become almost unusably bad recently. Unfortunately though, there it’s no usuable replacements for the rest of the Google ecosystem as far as my use case is concerned. I’d even ditch Android if there were a reasonable alternative.

they are still based on Chrome or Firefox doesn’t really matter, since they remove the undesirable parts of them.

Actually it does matter, since Google are killing off the ability for ad blockers to work with a new manifest specification in Chromium.

Eh, I use it as a learning experience to try be a better driver. Because I agree with the premise of this sub :)

You’re the one who made the original claim, buddy. The burden of proof is upon you. I’ve made no such claims about the superiority of either connector here.

You’ve not even presented an argument; you’ve only made a statement that it’s a worse connector. What are you basing this so-called argument on?

Lemme just check my state road rules.

Hmmmm… Now this is interesting!

It says right here in Article VI, Section 3, Paragraph 14 that you have no idea what you’re talking about. Amazing!

I’ve broken it a few times in my younger years when I could flex hard on my fixie in steep gearing.

I stopped trying after a motorist pulled out from a side street in front of me and I slammed into the side of his car at 60+kph. Completely destroyed the custom forks I had commissioned for the bike so I could run a disc brake specifically to avoid that happening :(
