the big, bold, inclusive failed experiment

Interesting way of saying, “I’m a self-centered fuck.”

Don’t lie to me. I know a Palantír when I see one.

If you enjoy the topic, my favorite astrophysicist, Dr. Becky, covered this discovery in her latest video!

Was about to ask what one does with dual Titan Xs, but the obvious answer is whatever the hell one wants.

The ultimate end-goal of a president’s first term is to be elected for a second term, and we Americans have very short attention spans. Stuff like this that seems like it should obviously have been done as soon as someone with the will to change it comes into power is more politically beneficial to do in an election year. It’s a shit system, certainly, but even the (relatively speaking) “good politicians” have to operate within it.

I worship Cenobites and I want to see Lament Configurations in every class room! Let’s tear some souls apart!

I host a handful of Internet facing sites/applications from my NAS and have had no issues. Just make sure you know how to configure your firewall correctly and you’ll be fine.

One of these guys walked up and gave me a handful of birdseed, prompting a flock of pigeons to come perch on my arms. I most certainly did not hand over the money they wanted for the experience I didn’t ask for and was somewhat disgusted by.

Thanks for the detailed response! I’ll look into this one.

I demand efficiency! I’ve got angry things to scream into the void!

I mean… I’m not totally against this.

We’ve got at least two pride events where I live. There’s “corpo pride” with the parades and booths set up by corporate sponsors. You may get a few local businesses in there, but it’s mostly the flag waving corporations clamoring for cash. That was earlier this month. Next weekend we’ll have “people’s pride” which is funded and organized directly by local people. Tends to be much more fun.

Or this statue of Juliet in Verona.

God’s just a burst of dopamine.

Flash back to listening to Paul Harvey in the car while my grandmother drove me to school.

Bet the house shakes when that one barks.

I don’t have a huge game library so my experience is limited, but I’ve had no issues gaming on Mint. Some of my regularly played games include Deep Rock Galactic, Risk of Rain 2, Lethal Company, Astroneer, Elite Dangerous, and Sea of Thieves.

I bought an ancient PC game I used to play as a kid called Summoner, and even that started right up.

Is this it?

How’s the ghost of Jacob Marley doing?
