It’s pretty hard to be open and transparent when 2 men with guns and black suits are sitting at your kitchen table.
We don’t know if that happened, but given the speed this happened and the us being the us…
If it breaks that they had a long runway of knowing this had to happen, then sure bring out the pitchforks, but imo we should default to this happening under heavy pressure to act immediately.
For the curious you’d make 970million in the 532years. Jeff bozos net worth is about 200 billion. You’d need an annual interest rate of about 2.12% to reach 200billion over that period, assuming you spend none of it, if you took an annual income of 20k then you’d only be at 135billion at the end of the period.
I keep a bouquet of dry pasta on my desk that I absentmindedly munch on while I work.
Sometimes I’ll eat a whole head of cabbage over a day peeling it leaf by leaf.
Where I live it’s illegal to have them expire. They can:
I don’t mind getting a steam gift card or an lcbo (liquor store) card, I know what liquor and games I like more than the people gifting. An Amazon gift card is much more annoying because it’s an everything store, it’s money that has to be used unethically. A costco giftcard is a nice hack to allow you to shop at the store without a membership, I used them like that until I reached a point where the membership paid for itself. I think they have a place, I also think they are often abused and should be regulated more than they currently are where I live. If they have an expiry they are a scam.
Here is amnesty international
It basically comes down to trials being far more expensive , the required solitary confinement being more expensive, more appeals. Lawyers cost much more than prison meals.
It is significantly cheaper to keep someone in prison for life than the death sentence process.
In a forum system that sorts by last comment that can be annoying. Which is why most systems seem to have moved away from that, it was one of the big innovations of reddit back when it started. But in a format where it doesn’t get more visibility for getting comments I don’t see why it’s a bad thing, just stop reading when you deem the topic done.
During thr brief window between reddit apps dying and the old archive rule being revoked getting comments on old tech support posts with follow ups and/or additional questions was pretty great, and definitely worth the occasional whitenoise posts (“thanks!” " seeing the same problem in 2024" “I clearly didn’t read the whole thread and am asking something already answered” etc etc).
I had one on an incisor as a teenager (a wrestling match knocked it loose and it formed an Abscess). It isn’t exactly fun, but it won’t hurt much except the needle at the beginning. I was only under local, but i hear sometimes you get the option to get laughing gas, I would take the gas if you can. It was significantly more painful before the operation than during. The vibrations are pretty intense at times and you have to stay in a pretty uncomfortable open mouth position for an hour (although they prop your mouth open for you). My least favourite part was when they clamped a uv lamp around the tooth, which felt like a big pressure for me. My mouth and tongue also got very dry, and the squirts of water they provided didn’t do much to make that better. I don’t remember much of the after care but it wasn’t bad.
10years later fwiw, my root canal developed an infection and I needed dental surgery to clear it out. During this the local numbing was ineffective for some reason and the dentist had to go in 3 times to try and renumb it, but it never really worked. That really really hurt, but it is not exactly a typical case.
People say sarcasm doesn’t translate on the internet, but hyperbole is definitely a close second.

Nerds like us can argue until we are blue in the face, 99% of the public will continue to call it Linux. GNU/Linux is a good way to prompt those not in the know to learn some of the history while still being understandable as Linux, that is the current and best solution, I do not think it is unresolved.
be the 28th president
César Gaviria or Salvador Allende?
I’m 28 so a little older than the prompt, I have a setup i never use it. I used it a lot as a kid but it doesn’t hold up to the alternatives.
English Wikipedia is about 22gb without media.
IMO megathreads are a way of suppressing news. They should only be used when a topic is actively drowning out all other discussion.
Yeah I think some of the older rainbow six’s as well if memory serves.
I hate that mechanic, if they are going to go that “realistic” route then let you keep the half filled magazine
It’s just a tiny blip, look at the 1Y or even 1M views.
My wife came to Canada because her and her pilot father Mohammad had their immigration status to NYC revoked in 2001. You can guess why. A win in retrospect, but not at the time
I quite like influencer I think it’s good that they are called what they are being paid to do and not trying to hide. It’s surprising honestly from a very dishonest industry.
