<Internet high-five>

Ill follow some of the track and field this time, I prefer watching the winter games. Curling has no right to be as intense as it appears on TV, its great.

My copy of the Hitchikers Guide to the Galaxy, narrated by Stephen Fry. It is relentlessly british.

Because when the right is in power they fall in line, and when the left is in power the fall in love.

Explanation, each left leaning congress critter and senate sloth has something they want to champion, something they usually got elected to do or fix... And they are wildly inconsistent within the party on how to do that. With the right being obstructionist cockwombles most of the time it then appear from the outside that left is incapable of getting things done.

I expect the main event to be painful for all involved ( the audience, the studio, 45/46 egos ). They better put some effort into the comercials...

Thanks, I hate it.

There are plenty of nerds here on Lemmy to help, but some advice first.

• What is the system intended for? (Gaming, CAD, editing, programming, Facebook machine?) This isnt just so we can advise better, but also to get you to state what you need this tool for. Its a tool at the end of the day.

• Will it need to be moved? This is where your going to have to weigh the factors in your life, because if you need to move the device, a laptop may be a better, but the entire device is not moduler (usually, Framework laptops and a few other manufacturers like to do stuff like that).

• Lastly, care to share what you planned/built? There are plenty of nerds on Lemmy who would love discussing stuff like that. (Shameless plug, one of those nerds is me)

Then the Undertaker threw Mankind off Hell-in-the-Cell and he plumetted 15 ft. through the announcers table!

I can say that going down that philisophical rabbit hole did help me in the past. Camus had some good points (some dont hold up well today) but his main claim to fame is that unlike the other nhilistic/absurdist philosophers he had an answer to the problem (not necessarly a correct one), his work is very much worth a read.

I just felt the jokes landed differently when they are written by committie. They didnt have much teeth and they werent punching up as much, they were making fun of mundane things like alchoholism... (Which is now considered a mental health problem, less of a societal one)

I was unimpressed with Hulu doing a show for "History of the world Part 2"...

Nah, their right... For people that can see the matrix (If you pardon the analogy) its fine and preferable to a desktop. However, to most people if it can be done from the desktop or menus it may as well not exist. If you try and explain it their eyes glaze over, they dont eant to learn something new, they just want to stare at the ass of the woman in the red dress...

Im expirenced enough to live in a terminal because I host servers locally and Im a fairly recent convertee to full-time Linux desktop for gaming. Ive been shouting from the roof tops that its good enough now, to the people in my immediate meat space it falls of deaf ears, the privacy trainwreck that is windows and the evils of the modern internet are not a concern to them. So they dont feel any need to change things...

Well... It is anime.

According to IMDB, the animation studio is Sola Entertainment, which really doesn't have much under their belt. They are listed on "Ninja Kamui" and "Ultraman" and thats about it. I cant say much where the staff came from or if there is any famous directors behind this but they seem good enough. The bar for new LotR content isnt that high right now so ill be happy if its the quality of Netflix's+Anime colabs.

Edit: also post-production notes say late-december 2024, and its expecting a theatrical release (good luck with that...)

Classic, the sketch is also quite good. [Youtube Link]

Pot, meet kettel. Complaining about cynicism without offering anything constructive is worse than being cynical itself.

Pointing to the flaws in society is important, because not everyone has the right to complain about some entities (be it their government, religion or superiors), but your replies offer even less by failing to contribute anything and detracts from the point of the initial statement.

Agree.

For W10 you can still do offline installs with the media creation tool and telling it you dont have an internet connection, for W11 even enterprise users are all tied into autopilot, Intune MDM, and/or a microsoft account. I do not believe there is a method to install W11 without an internet connection and account. If there some some way to get the install tools to do that, I dont know what it is, and I do IT for a job...

Honestly, making the switch to linux full time is not that bad. Every tool, utility and program other than the most niche propriatary applications have a FOSS variant, and it is starting to sound like a bad relationship when people wait for MS to make a policy, change or product that isnt comedicly evil...

Just break up... If you need to talk at the hivemind of the internet for advice, we got ya.

Yep, a debit card dispute is a "you" problem. A credit card dispute is the banks problem.

Ideally, a low limit credit card to facilitate transactions and buffer the responsibility of disputing charges is what they are best at. I feel like when banks just raise your limit for being a good customer is them trying to trick you into debt and fees.

Good reference, I would set it to something shorter like 12345 (same thing an idiot keeps on their luggage). Keep your pin yours, but if you set the duress code to a default PW like that (and dont have kids that would just try the it at random) if the phone gets taken there is a non-zero chance that they just guess it and nuke the device.

I hope that there is some actual jail time involved, but im expecting 'You will write "I will not create fraudulant business records" on the chalk board 1000 times per count'...
