And then the patrons of a mob-owned bar in New York decided to handle things a bit differently, much to his chagrin. Even more to his chagrin, they turned out to be extremely effective.

In the Lost Adventures comics Sokka managed to become a Fire Nation war hero with that a very similar disguise so yeah, easy first place for him.
All other things aside, which Logitech mouse are you talking about? Both my G Pro and my G 305 work out of the box. Logitech also advertises them as ChromeOS compatible and AFAIK the Logitech wireless dongles are USB HID compliant so seeing a Linux straight up refuse to interact with them sounds very weird.
Android already does that, no AI required. Some fairly simple math is enough.
The device first charges to 80% and holds there. It also calculates how long it will need to charge from there to full and when it will need to resume charging so that it will hit 100% just before the next alarm goes off. Then it does that.
It’s a pun on the Met Gala. Honestly, this might be the most sensible Heathcliff I’ve seen so far.
I’d love to but on my gaming rig Wine/Proton will absolutely refuse to install the Visual C++ runtime, making me unable to play most games. On another, virtually identical, Linux installation it works without issue; in fact, I have fewer weird issues like a game randomly not connecting to EOS.
I consider it karmic justice for buying Nvidia; that’s the major difference between the two systems.
(Update: The latest Wine version seems to have fixed this. I’m certainly not complaining.)
How about autoscrolling shmups where you don’t die after every hit and get to upgrade your ship between missions?
The oldschool entry in this niche would be Tyrian – released in 1995, made freeware in 2004, then ported to modern OSes.
2004 was also when Jets’N’Guns came out. It looks more modern, has a quirky sense of humor and a badass metal soundtrack. It also has a sequel.
Both games can be found on your (PC) digital marketplace of choice.
When AMD introduced the first Epyc, they marketed it with the slogan: “Nobody ever got fired for buying Intel. Until now.”
And they lived up to the boast. The Zen architecture was just that good and they’ve been improving on it ever since. Meanwhile the technology everyone assumed Intel had stored up their sleeve turned out to be underwhelming. It’s almost as bad as IA-64 vs. AMD64 and at least Intel managed to recover from that one fairly quickly.
They really need to come to with another Core if they want to stay relevant.
To be fair, he also had an eye for good product design. Not the skills to implement it but the ability to see whether a design is good.
Of course he expressed this skill by yelling at his engineers and designers. A lot. Because he was an asshole.
Dunno. The biggest issues I have with my 8 so far are the absence of a headphone jack and the fact that KeePassDroid’s “copy password” notification has a half-minute delay between getting tapped and copying the password to the clipboard. Otherwise it’s a really solid phone.
Sure, it’s not perfect but neither was my last phone.
I actually went back to a light gray theme for my new Linux machine after I’ve been stuck with Windows’s options of “flat pure black with hairlines” and “flat bright white with hairlines” for too long.
I don’t actually need dark mode that much (except for coding) if a bright mode theme is easy enough on the eyes. Windows 10 is just so ugly that only the dark mode is halfway palatable.
If only the old themexp.dll hacks still worked I could have a decent looking desktop on all of my machines…
Ugh. I just finished dealing with what turned out to be a simple configuration problem that took me three days because the tool’s documentation sucked. Turned it in feeling bad only to hear that four other devs had previously failed to get it to work.
One important lesson on life is that everyone is bumbling around all the time. (Like me with autocorrect in the first version of this comment…)
True. It’s just the automated transfer that doesn’t work.
I didn’t bring up F-Droid’s very existence as an argument because iOS also allows a form of sideloading these days. Android still makes it a lot easier but Apple isn’t entirely out of the loop anymore. Baby steps, I guess.
I’m the spirit of fairness I will nitpick you.
Firstly, porting apps over between Android devices works seamlessly only if those apps come from the Play Store. Android has no provisions for auto-transferring e.g. F-Droid and its apps. So it’s no wonder you can’t transfer your iOS apps (which might not even have Android versions). But it is true that auto-transfers of Play Store apps between different Android spins is seamless.
Secondly, whether and how easily you can modify or replace your Android is dependent on the phone’s manufacturer. A Pixel is a very different beast from an Xperia in that regard. Still, Google do provide AOSP and are very mod-friendly on their own devices. Apple very much aren’t.
Soon they will launch their new product, Copy of New Teams Classic (work or school) (2).
GTA 6 will be the most important release not only in video game history but in the entire history of computing. If Alan Turing has known his work would lead to GTA 6 he would’ve died with a smile on his face.
Now that we are approaching the historic release of GTA 6 we can sleep easy for the launch of this, the greatest possible achievement of human culture, marks the completion of all our aspirations.
We can do no more, nor do we have to. We will have achieved all there is to achieve. GTA 6 will not only revolutionize everything, it will also obviate the need to improve upon anything because a world with GTA 6 in it is impossible to improve upon.
God weeps. Whether it’s tears of joy because his creation has finally surpassed him or tears of grief as it is no longer possible for anything to soar to greater heights is unknowable. But we do know this: If you don’t preorder immediately you will be the first against the wall when the revolution comes.
No, you get to set that. The defaults are global. But you can override that (both globally and per community) only for you. If you never like jokes except in joke communities you can set “Funny” to -1 globally and to +1 in Ten Forward. But that doesn’t affect how it works for me.
This would, of course, man that posts are sorted completely differently for us. A really funny post might be extremely highly upvoted for me but in the deep negatives for you.
It would also mean that a global karma counter doesn’t exist.
Why not just go to a collection of votes with configurable values of +1, 0, and -1? They all have global values that default to something sane and each user can define custom values both globally and per community.
I might set “Funny” to +1 except in /WorldNews, where it’s a -1. I might appreciate controversial posts so I might set “Flamebait” to a global 0 so it doesn’t affect a post’s rating. And so on.
(Wait, that’s basically just extended Slashdot. Eh, I like Slashdot’s system.)
I think all of the ATLA comics are solid, especially the ones illustrated by Gurihiru (but then again I absolutely love Gurihiru’s style so I’m totally biased). Some aspects are a bit weird (like the forklift in The Rift) but the comics match the tone of the show fairly well.
A particular mention should go to one from the Lost Adventures, the one about Private Wang Fire. A true Fire Nation hero!
I wasn’t trying to make the point that he or the Mattachine Society didn’t matter. I merely find it very amusing that after a long and meticulously crafted campaign to make gay people as inoffensive and nonthreatening as possible, the thing that accelerated gay acceptance was when the exact opposite happened and people started showing that they didn’t have to be nonthreatening.
The combination of a quiet composed voice and a loud angry one was more effective than either would’ve been on their own.
