It was a kernel regression that caused the issue, not sure that is entirely their fault. I would think that’s more on AMD and the kernel devs.

cobra89,

Yes and if everyone agreed to just stop fighting we’d have world peace but we’re talking about actually achievable goals.

cobra89,

We had a collectivist culture, government funding for our own media with our own values, then we started getting leaned on.

This is hilarious to point out when you consider Rupert Murdoch has done more to change American politics than probably anyone else in the last 50 years, but you’re gonna complain about the US “leaning on” Australia? Sorry but that just screams of shirking responsibility for your own country’s problems.

cobra89,

I think this is probably true of many ex-British colonies since class is such a dominant and suffocating aspect of British culture.

Yeah content creators have leverage over them because they give Plex money. I would wager the vast majority of Plex users don’t have Plex pass. Also the fact that they have a lifetime subscription means there are people who could be paying but aren’t anymore. So they need some sort of way to get more recurring revenue.

I’d much rather they include some free programming I can ignore than do something like take away my lifetime pass and make me start paying monthly again like a lot of places have done.

Do tell, what overbearing regulations did Dollar Tree and Family Dollar lobby for? They don’t really do anything different from any normal retail space so I don’t see how that’s really a feasible explanation in this scenario.

cobra89,

Just a heads up, your link to the previous comic seems to be accidentally pointing to the next comic.

cobra89,

Wow this is the first “pro-marvel” response that actually put some thought into it, and while I don’t personally agree you’ve made the only compelling argument in this entire thread as to why these marvel movies being constantly regurgitated makes any sense.

cobra89,

I just wish there was a way to sideload something on a Roku :/

cobra89,

Um how exactly do you think these “rogue devices” would exfiltrate that data? Do you think iOS is providing Internet access to the faceID module or the display? Or do you think these devices somehow contain an entire wifi chipset to connect to the Internet to exfiltrate your data without anyone noticing an entire extra SoC soldered onto the part?

Please provide any argument as to why you think these could exfiltrate data over these interfaces? Unless you think iOS’s security is so poor that it lets any hardware device that’s attached to it get full network access? (Which I’m pretty sure is not physically even possible in most cases since those connectors are only capable of sending the type of data across for that particular sensor.)

cobra89,

Lol could Unity have bungled this any harder??

cobra89,

Has this ever actually happened to anyone? I don’t see how it could, the dricer confirms where you are going when you get in the car and also your name. And then the app also shows you that your trip has started.

cobra89,

Love how no one has mentioned Days of Our Lives, there’s over 14,600 episodes. Although someone did mention General Hospital which just has slightly more with over 15,300.

cobra89,

Why not endeavor? Manjaro holds back packages from the Arch upstream so if you install a newer package from the AUR it can possibly depend on packages Manjaro held back and break your install.

cobra89,

Read the article about this and the policy seems really really dumb. If parents miss the 8:30am deadline they have to wait until 10am. So they have to waste an hour and a half of their day because a school administrator can’t be arsed to walk to the gate and take the child inside?

Like if parents are resorting to throwing their child over a 6ft tall fence maybe take a look at your policies that are making people resort to that?

Not to excuse the parents, cuz they’re dumb too.

maturing very early thanks to GMO foods.

Stop fear mongering over GMO foods. This is completely untrue and GMO foods have been found safe repeatedly.

If you’re gonna spout nonsense at least provide a source.

cobra89,

Why isn’t the liberal government just suspending the constitution?!?111??? 🙄

cobra89,

No it isn’t. Communism eliminates private property. E.G. Land ownership. (You lease land from the state)

It does not get rid of personal property. You’re still allowed to own things. A phone, a car, books, anything that is movable; pretty much anything except land and maybe buildings.

I’m not even a fan of communism but this is just an ignorant misconception.

cobra89,

It’s the “thin blue line” flag, cop apologists essentially.

It seems to happen quite a bit: dailymail.co.uk/…/American-tourist-TikTok-star-ne…

Although that last one they didn’t see it because it was hiding in a shell.

cobra89,

In the text of the post it literally suggests uninstalling the app.

cobra89,

Ah I didn’t see the post was edited. My bad. They didn’t admit anything though. They just said they wish they could jailbreak their iPhone and that it was “fair enough” that they screwed up when they bought an apple product.

cobra89,

Am I the only one that feels like they really poorly marketed that game? I don’t recall seeing any sort of ads or promotions for it other than what they showed during the game shows/company presentations.

It really felt like you wouldn’t have known about it unless you were looking for it.

cobra89,

I mean FF6/7/8 all still followed the same basic formula, FF7 was just in 3D and had materia. FF8 was definitely a little weird with the draw system but other than that it was still your classic turn based final fantasy game.

FF9 and FFX were classic final fantasys. 12 was definitely a departure with the MMO style world map and what not, and battles were definitely different with the licenses and gambits but you could still play it very much like a traditional Final Fantasy.

The series started going south with 13 with its extremely linear “hallway” style maps (until very late in the game) and the paradigm battle system. But even that felt like the traditional turn based gameplay of final fantasy.

They really jumped the shark with 15. I couldn’t play that game for more than a handful of hours. If I wanted to play a hack and slash game I’d go play a hack and slash game, that’s not what Final Fantasy is for IMO. I want to strategize about the combat.

I understand turn based combat is old hat now and it doesn’t sell anymore or whatever (which I think is BS really because Dragon Quest still sells, Octopath sells, etc) but they could have at least made it more strategic than whatever FF15 was. Possibly closer to the gameplay style they did for the FF7 remake. And omg the stupid car… it just felt so weird and unlike a Final Fantasy game. I didn’t connect with the characters at all.

And seeing 16 I just have no desire to play it. There is nothing about that game that appeals to my classic final fantasy taste. I’m coming to terms with the fact we’ll probably never get another Final Fantasy in that style and the series is basically dead and an entirely different series since 15. I’ll just go play Dragon Quest or Fire Emblem or something.

cobra89,

I think most Final Fantasy fans would still consider the ATB systems to be turn based, just depends on how pedantic you wanna be. You’re still taking turns, you’re just not necessarily taking them in the exact same order every time.

Also if you’re gonna be that pedantic, X is not a turn based system either. It’s a conditional turn based system where characters with a higher agility stat take more turns. Almost exactly the same as ATB just without the need to input your actions as fast as possible. (If you have ATB on active instead of wait mode.)

The nasal spray form:

But FDA reviewers said their latest assessment reflects new testing insights into how quickly phenylephrine is metabolized when taken by mouth, leaving only trace levels that reach nasal passages to relieve congestion. The drug appears more effective when applied directly to the nose, in sprays or drops, and those products are not under review.

Or just good old Pseudoephedrine, but you have to get it from the pharmacy counter even though it doesn’t require a prescription. (Thanks Meth producers) but AFAIU taking any decongestant long term is a bad idea. And Phenylephrine increases blood pressure.

cobra89,

My mom who was a nurse for 40 years has said the same thing for the past 15+ years or whenever they made the switch here in the US.

cobra89,

From the article:

I would imagine more bureaucratic processes being the issue here. I can imagine some Rockstar employee tasked with getting the game up on Steam, trying to get the game through official channels to put on Steam, getting frustrated, saying f-it and downloading the Razor 1911 version thinking they removed all the references and then pushing it to Steam.

Elon Musk seen as working counter to U.S. interests in dealings with Russia, China (youtu.be)

Elon Musk's financial interests put him in a position of having his own personal foreign policy, but new reporting shows that whether it's manufacturing in China or the Starlink network being used in Ukraine, Musk’s decisions can run counter to stated US policy.

cobra89,

I’d argue Musk cared more about being able to bloviate on Twitter than he did about getting richer from that transaction.

Of course there’s the very real possibility that he was foolish enough to believe he could make money on the deal.

cobra89,

Wish I could help, all I can say is, FireWire?!? What year is it?!? Lol

cobra89,

I felt that same way when I started using MacOS for work, but got used to it.

The fact that there’s no way to snap windows to a side of the screen without manually moving the window and resizing it is absurd. I have programs that allow me to do it, but like come on.

Also I still despise how fullscreen on MacOS works. It’s so obnoxious.

cobra89,

Also CO2 and other greenhouse gases trap heat from the Sun. Waste heat doesn’t do that.

Brave is Chromium based…what are you talking about?

Microsoft to Drop Support for Third-Party Printer Drivers on Windows (petri.com)

“With the release of Windows 10 21H2, Windows offers inbox support for Mopria compliant printer devices over network and USB interfaces via the Microsoft IPP Class Driver. This removes the need for print device manufacturers to provide their own installers, drivers, utilities, and so on. Device experience customization is now...

cobra89,

And having drivers in windows update has 0 effect on drivers being available from manufacturers directly, as evidenced by your comment. So I don’t really see how that could be construed as a negative.

cobra89,

Lol gotta love that even Harbor Freight even calls WD-40 a lubricant. It’s not a lubricant, it’s a penetrating oil and really a degreaser. If it’s something that needs lubrication you should absolutely use an actual lubricant after using WD-40, E.G. bike chains, door hinges, etc.

cobra89,

They make WD-40 in a non-aerosol bottle. Like a Windex bottle. I’m assuming that’s what will be available after this change: www.wd40.com/products/trigger-pro/

I’m sure that can be adapted to fit a straw as well.

cobra89,

It’s a ban on religious garments, a kimono is not a religious garment. Therefore no code was broken.

cobra89,

Not getting enough sales, gotta jack up the price so they make the same amount of money. Seems legit.

cobra89,

Did you read the article? It wasn’t about the traffic being encrypted. It’s about starlink turning off service in a certain area so the drones didn’t have Internet access to communicate:

Elon Musk secretly ordered his engineers to turn off his company’s Starlink satellite communications network near the Crimean coast last year to disrupt a Ukrainian sneak attack on the Russian naval fleet, according to an excerpt adapted from Walter Isaacson’s new biography of the eccentric billionaire titled “Elon Musk.”

As Ukrainian submarine drones strapped with explosives approached the Russian fleet, they “lost connectivity and washed ashore harmlessly,” Isaacson writes.

cobra89,

Did you mean to post a YouTube video about a bicycle car?

cobra89,

For our office we’ve had to resort to this and it’s pretty miserable. There are simply not enough conference rooms and phone rooms to handle all the meetings. People are unfortunately typically in teams with people across the country so every meeting is a video call. It’s really annoying so many people just end up wearing noise canceling headphones.

cobra89,

Yes put all their government employees on most likely outdated Android which probably don’t have up to date security patches. Brilliant.

cobra89,

I would bet dollars to donuts that foreign governments have already exploited HarmonyOS 4.

“he is going to collect all the leftover carts anyways”.

This mentality is just selfishness and self-centeredness. This is the same mentality of people who cause a huge mess at restaurants or movie theatres because “it’s their job, I’m giving them work to do.” It shows an extreme lack of empathy, and it’s very much a “they’re beneath me, I’m helping them” disgusting mentality.
