This was already common practice to promote other shows during broadcasts way back when I last watched broadcast TV over a decade and a half ago.
I just flipped through the introduction of a GIMP book that the authors hoped 3.0 would be out so they could cover it but ultimately based the book on 2.6 due to delays. It's copyright 2012, apparently something (didn't) happen.
Newsweek believes that everything is going swimmingly well for Biden without fail. Don't rely on others to keep Trump out of office for you, everything is not OK.
Would have to say very much so and ended the trend of bigger and bigger food and beverage options. I remember there being a coffee chain that was competing with Starbucks at the time that introduced a full 44oz frappucino-type drink, and convenience stores starting to introduce 52oz sodas. Seemed like the sky was the limit back then but all those super-sized options disappeared within about a year after Super Size Me.
I was playing through Xenoblade Chronicles 1's post-endgame trying to do all the quests and because I didn't know to steal a certain item from a certain enemy I now have to defeat a Lvl 120 boss that is the most powerful in the game to get one form of ultimate weapon. Not feeling like getting something like that after the fact, time to call it done and move onto the expansion.
On my RTX 3080 laptop I get a significantly lower frame rate on my laptop screen (240hz) and 4k external monitor (144hz) when using Wayland. Wayland has come a long way but I'm still going to be using X11 for at least the near future.
I'm just glad that it exists at all. Google has Chrome tied down on Android because they feel they can.
Apple: what's wrong with just 8GB RAM?
I am a Debian unstable user who used to use Gentoo, the reason I stopped using Gentoo is revdep-rebuild. Do not want to do another revdep-rebuild ever again.
I do have to appreciate the fact that you have decided to thumb your nose at everyone and defy god by doing the exact opposite.
Hello there! I live in Silver Springs, wasn't expecting local communities on Lemmy.
I have a 19" CRT monitor and a larger CRT TV for retro purposes, but I'm not too fond of using filters on modern displays, most filters look 'fake' to me.
I see conservative men getting with conservative women all the time, if they're complaining about nothing being available they need to look at themselves in the mirror or look in different places (maybe hip, urban environments aren't the best places to date for conservatives?) Switching up politics isn't some magic solution to getting laid.
Festivals I'm DJing at
Come join me for Equinox (North Carolina, USA) and Sacred Earth (Missouri, USA) in September where I'll be bringing a selection of darkpsy, twilight and forest sounds. I mainly play at small, intimate events throughout Florida at warehouses and beaches. If you want to know what's going on psy-related in Florida feel free to reach out.

Just a tiny pinch of kosher salt and a single crack of black pepper for me. Easier to over season than under season with eggs.
Favorite cookware?
What is everyone's preferred cookware around here? I have usually preferred cast iron cookware for most things that don't involve acids but have recently started using carbon steel and prefer it for the lighter weight, longer handles and similar cooking properties. Enameled dutch oven for braising of course. I tried to stop using non-stick pans (Teflon and the like) but for certain egg and crepe recipes it just seems absolutely necessary. I would like to get a nice collection of multi-ply stainless steel / aluminum pans when I get the budget for it.
Might not be a popular take but having an undefendable position like creationism does not necessarily mean "poorly educated." There are apologists who have learned proper reasoning skills and use their education to bend reality as much towards their will. I think most people would consider Jesuits and the like to be very educated but also very wrong.
As far as signs that someone is poorly educated, there are people who make up "big words" to give the impression of having a better education to other poorly educated people. Which backfires when someone with an actual large vocabulary walks into the room.
