For me it’s that everything today is made out of some flavor of shitty plastic. Call ot whatever you want - “Active Wear”, “Cool Breeze”, “Dry Tech” - it’s polyester, it feels terrible, and amps my BO up to 11 even if I’m just sitting still.

So far I’ve only gotten a black screen when I try to launch it, so I have a bug to work out…

I don’t see it available in Steam though, only Epic through Heroic launcher. I haven’t been able to get it to work though, just get a black screen.

I just wanna be able to play Rocket League on Linux. Is that so much to ask?

Exactly. I want to discover new artists, and sometimes I accidentally discover old artists that I should have known about but sheltered, raised-on-small-town-Midwestern-radio old me never could.

My first thought was, “5 Amber alerts amd a hurricane… good god what’s going on in Florida?!”

You had me even more worried there for a second.

Just a few more accusers and he’ll have a gross. I think that’s when the bulk rate trial discount kicks in.

So ask it about a made up or misspelled word - “how many r’s in the word strauburrry” or ask it something with no answer like “what word did I just type?”. Anything other than, “you haven’t typed anything yet” is wrong.

I was going to say that they could have stopped the headline at “quarter” as far as I’m concerned.

Liberal? Really?

Or a ruler. And make the strips the width of the ruler. The only “extra” needed is a cutting surface. This plastic gizmo simply eliminates the need for a work surface, nothing else.

I think what bothers him is that he had something that he liked and can no longer find. It may not be the case here, but companies (in the US) are en masse changing their recipes to be cheaper to manufacture and it’s affecting the end product.

In the case of something like a cookie which can be made 1000 different ways by 1000 different companies, finding what you like took time, luck, or both. When they change the recipe on you, it’s not a simple, “just buy a different cookie, dummy.” It’s a major undertaking. Sometimes you get lucky and this was the push that allowed you to discover a new, even better, favorite. More often than not though, it’s just another part of your day that got a little bit shittier than it was yesterday.

It’s annoying and I totally get it.

Use Muzei and either curate your own collection or pull in one of their pre-made ones.

Yeah this is probably the most likely. We do love to put plastic on everything.

That’s a reasonable guess, but it suggests that (a lot) of people are unpacking new electronics over bare live electrical wire.

I’ve been buying electrical and electronic things for years (okay decades), and the toys and computers I got as a kid never had these. The cords are always nicely coiled in their own cavity of the box too, so already protected well enough.

All in all it just seems like a solution to a non-existent problem.

Possibly a few real ones, too!

I had done this for several years but recently I’m running into the issue where my home router won’t let me specify a DNS server that is on the same subnet. I dont have multiple networks running at home so I can’t make a Pihole work anymore.

It’s not so much about him personally trying anything though. The problem is that he’s potentially inciting one of the thousands of unhinged people who follow him into doing something.

Pancheros is my favorite. They press tortillas fresh when you order and I love it.
