I have pretty good insurance and I really should go to the doctor, but I’ll have to pay 2 grand out of pocket before the insurance covers everything. It resets in January so I’m going to wait.
I played WoW a bit after its initial release through the first couple xpacs. Getting the MMO itch again, but I know the WoW I grew up with doesn’t really exist anymore, so now I’m pretty out of touch....
I went and set this up after seeing this comment. I will say, it’s wild and I’ve had a blast playing it. The community is awesome and I have no idea what I’m doing but that doesn’t seem to matter at all.
Going to be tough with the bullshit they’re pulling to make sure certain people have a hard time voting and then gerrymandering the shit out of things.
People who have turned to X for breaking news about the Israel-Hamas conflict are being hit with old videos, fake photos, and video game footage at a level researchers have never seen.
Bought a CTS-V2. Daily it and smile every time I drive it. 14mpg on a good day and I give no fucks. Love it and would be another if something happened to it. Life is short, enjoy it.
Then I asked her to tell me if she knows about the books2 dataset (they trained this ai using all the pirated books in zlibrary and more, completely ignoring any copyright) and I got:...
I’m the same way but I bought bg3 because of how not asshole they are. It’s a great game and honestly worth the money. This is the first game I’ve bought at full price since games came on cartridges.
I get that, but that game is so big, you’re going to want to play over regardless. You’ll probably start over anyways after at least 40 hours of game play. The game is really insane on how much there is and how much every choice you make matters. You could play this game for the rest of your life and I don’t think you’d have the same game twice.
I’d agree now. I’ve been 100% Linux since February and I love it. I’ve tried for 20 years to go to Linux and there was always something that made me go back to Windows. Now, no problems at all.

You’re really over complicating the whole piracy thing. There’s websites easier to navigate than netflix to stream anything you want, often with better resolution. It takes about twenty minutes of research to find a VPN that would meet your needs. I would recommend anyone on the internet to use one for everything anyways.
Translation: We’re making sooo much money off the backs of the suckers we employ that we’re concerned of the backlash if they found out just how bad we’re screwing them.

Elon lied about the monkeys — and he shouldn't be trusted to put his Neuralink chips in human brains.
"They are claiming they are going to put a safe device on the market, and that's why you should invest," Ryan Merkley at the Physicians Committee, told Wired. "And we see his lie as a way to whitewash what happened in these exploratory studies."
Really heartbreaking reading what happened to the monkeys.
People quite rightly think of Elizabeth Holmes as a fraud for making false medical claims about what the Theranos machines could do. So why aren't Elon's claims at Neuralink being held to the same level of scrutiny?
Exactly. Then they’ll take that and turn it into fear. Then they’ll take that fear and blame the Democrats for it. Then their base with their room temperature IQ will eat that shit up and show up on voting day and vote for hatred and projection while being completely oblivious to the fact it’s their party’s fault nothing is being done about it.
Video playing, ad that scrolls, two lines of a story, the bottom popping up with notifications every few minutes over the top of more scrolling ads....
Yeah, I will not be a part of being forced to watch ads. Whatever they do to force ads, there will be a way around it and if a site makes you use chrome so they can force ads, then I won’t be doing shit with your site.
My local utility company makes you use chrome to pay your bill online. I call every month and waste someones time taking my payment. I refuse to put up with bullshit.
I would just drive around busting three wheel around the corners with my homies in the drop top just listening to the radio. That was more fun than the missions.
