The part I thought that was wild was them (DeSantis Administrative Office) calling it a “fad” “We disagree with the court’s erroneous rulings on the law, on the facts, and on the science. As we’ve seen here in Florida, the United Kingdom, and across Europe, there is no quality evidence to support the chemical and physical mutilation of children. These procedures do permanent, life-altering damage to children, and history will look back on this fad in horror,” spokeswoman Julia Friedland said in an email.

I read that Sony is doing it for security reasons for safety/grieving and that the game did originally require a PSN login at launch, but stopped it at launch. But I am guessing this is just them saying hey we have this many people using PSN accounts. No other reason to have Steam prompt for login for anything besides the Steam account

More backstory they are an electrician and he has installed several chargers already. They were not intoxicated during the process, least as far as I can tell for drinking 2 bud lites for an hour+ of work

I got a $5,000 estimate to get mine installed. Luckily we knew a guy who only requested beer and to not clean up the drywall

If you really want to go on a date, be upfront in whatever app or service you are using. If you have free time, just enjoy yourself because it sounds like you will be busy wherever you are going. Don’t expect to have a long term style relationship in this short time, long distance is difficult and I’d advise against it. But do whatever you think is best, everyone is different including their SO. Best of luck

My newborn is getting all their vax in 2 weeks, had to do an explanation for PTO so I’d be there for them. The first thing after I sent the request to my boss was, “have you looked into all the vaccines and how they affect them”. I just don’t understand why these proven vaccines are always in question

The new WRX looks like a 2020s civic with a hood scoop. Not sure what they were thinking

I can hear it when I read it

I think the reason for consoles was, you pay X dollars (normally the same price as a decent video card), and you are guaranteed that any games that come out with it works. All you have to do is plug it up to a TV with HDMI and boom, working video game box with smart capabilities. It is/was a good idea, but I’m guessing MS is looking back at their Xbox One always online days and say you can hook up this $100 cloud base console and stream your games (that you pay a subscription for) with little to no degradation. Honestly they could go so far as offering it alongside select or premium TV brands, they are already doing that with LGs. The next battle will be game ownership, Ubisoft has already started that battle. Looking bleak, may be pulling out the old pirate hat

Nothing like wasting my money buying digital Xbox since Xbox One days to have it turn into a subscription based company. I’ve enjoyed my Xbox, but really sucks. Still hopefully, but highly doubtful they will continue to make consoles. I’m guessing sub and cloud base allowing access on PS and Nintendo. Good for them, but no reason to keep on supporting Xbox. Move on over Sega, Atari, and whoever else, another one coming aboard

Has it really been that long?

I highly doubt it will be under 30k. I’m guessing Musk will say due to inflation, but we’ll see. An under 30,000 EV that isn’t garage would be a pretty big game changer assuming it will have an actual real world mileage over 215 miles

This was super cool, I made some as well

I’ve had my Series X since the first year on its side in my basement (nearish to woods). Nearing completion Starfield it started freezing badly. I followed TronicsFix walkthrough for cleaning which resolved it. https://youtu.be/dKJ2ATvKKAs?si=az954-g_NrhiaC_e

I’m guessing maybe the smoke might be clogging it, but depending maybe look at redoing the thermal paste. I didn’t do that for mine when I cleaned, but maybe (normally thermal paste is good for a long while).

If you go with the cleaning, definitely get some Dust off. Hope you get it working, maybe put it on its side and further away from the wood stove if possible and on a solid surface

Definitely will be voting Democrat next year, I switched from Independent to Democrat because of Trump during the last election. I’m hoping the Dems will win, but I’m not sure. Gut feeling is saying Trump will win and the US will be another shit show for the next 4 years (possibly much longer depending on how Republicans deal with “their democracy”)

Baldur’s Gate 3 is for me and should be game of the year. No one was expecting it to be as great as it is, received hate from some Devs saying it’s unreasonable to make such a good game and has ton of replayability

I’d say watch both videos, Muta’s video is a little more in depth, but it is just odd to hold onto the money for so long. At least they aren’t spending it on nonsensical things, but if they get audited, that will be a big problem with how they filled out their taxes. I’m hoping for the best though, I do like Jirard and I can’t imagine how it is with your parent/family going through that

I watched both of the videos, it sucks. I like him as a YouTuber, but it sounds like they are about to get in a lot of trouble even if the IRS doesn’t do an audit. Very odd they just say on the money, I’m sure they’ll be donating it within the next few weeks

Could be interesting but depends on how it is trained. I know there are hundreds of people that spend hours just chatting with GPT, if trained correctly it could create some very interesting main/side quest characters. Just have to wait and see, not a bad thing since it seems AI is “the thing” at the moment

You know, I was thinking the same thing. Like sure, I’m not for Republicans, but if they could at least get someone who actually cares about what it means at the core to be a Republican and work for the people and want small Gov, then sure. But here we are yet again, they continue to be an embarrassment. That party is a joke and has been for some time now
