Fuck yeah. Nice work FBI. 👌

Probably not this, but your description reminded me of it. Lol

Yeah, the ISP cartels sucks. I’ve been stuck paying $170/mo for uncapped 1000/35mbps connection.

Thankfully, before the end of the year, a local ISP is moving into my area. They offer uncapped symmetrical gigabit, for $75/mo… I’ll be saving $95/mo for BETTER service.

The longstanding ISP cartels should seriously be punished for the abuse of their market positions and failure to appropriately use government funding they’ve been given.

LTT, for better or worse, is a very popular tech/PC gaming entertainment YouTube channel. A lot of the younger folks in the nerd space probably grew up watching his content.

I started watching a little late, because I thought he seemed kind of annoying back in the day, but I actually do enjoy their content. It’s clear they have some organization and communication problems internally that they need to sort out, though.

He could not be federally pardoned, no. The State of Georgia can also pardon individuals of state crimes, but this requires the applicant has paid all fines amongst other requirements like being a law abusing citizen for over five years after serving their sentence. The governor cannot pardon.

Sorry, I was more referring to Biden’a classified docs that were found. Trump’s offenses are on a whole other scale, but there’s at least a modicum of similarity there to compare.

The only thing close to what Trump has done that Biden was involved with is when there were some classified documents found, which were promptly returned. Unlike Trump, who purposefully and knowingly took classified documents, left them unsecured in his resort, bragged about it, and refused to return them when requested.

Biden also didn’t stage a coup or lie about and try to manipulate election results.

So, like, no where close to “half” of what Trump has done. If you actually believe that, you’re a fucking moron.

And who gives a shit about Hunter. He’s not even a public official, unlike Ivanka and Jared Kushner were during Trump’s presidency where they promptly used their positions for personal gain…

Quit with the both sides bullshit and read a fucking book.

Then why’d you post it? 😅

Wow, there’s a title I haven’t heard about in a while. Never played the original game, but played the first, and only iirc, “episode” of SiN that came out on the source engine.

Well, good. Hope things are smooth sailing from here!

It could help identify and measure people on the autistic spectrum or similar.

I know I’m an outlier here, but I really enjoyed the movie. The CGI wasn’t perfect, but I don’t care. There’s so much CGI in the movie, some was bound to be shite. It’s WB after all, what haven’t they fucked up in recent years? I think the bigger problem is the association with Ezra Miller and this version of Flash being pretty childish and weird.

But I love a good Flashpoint story, and I’m excited about Gunn’s DC.

Relay. And I still miss it. Better than any of the other apps I’ve tried for reddit or lemmy. Very smart design and UX that made it far more usable and enjoyable.

I didn’t know about Forum channels, thanks for the heads-up. Are they crawled by search engines, though? I feel like with people deleting their reddit posts and moving to discord, it’s already becoming a lot harder to find information online.

The $160 is a lifetime pass… I pay $20/mo for Netflix. That’s $240/year. So, if you think it’s worth it for even one year, compared to something like Netflix, then it’s a pretty solid value proposition.

I bought the lifetime pass in 2014 when it was $75. Been more than happy with that decision.

Honestly, it seems what Reddit has been doing lately is far worse than anything Digg ever did. 🤷‍♂️ Digg basically just made a bunch of bad design decisions primarily but not entirely to please investors, and the majority of changes were not welcomed by the community.

Reddit is straight up disrespecting their userbase and telling them to suck a fat one and deal with it, holding to their miserable decisions while openly suggesting their userbase is too weak to go anywhere else… And also doing so primarily to please misguided investors.

I don’t know much about the Mantis malware, but it does seem probable that it’s related or another form of malware.

You might be able to get into your router admin panel to view what connection the"mantis" device is connecting through to narrow things down. If it’s on Wi-Fi or not, for example.

Maybe shut down your current desktop and use a less frequently used machine to do the checks. No offense, but if you have custom skins in Windows, you probably don’t have many hesitations over using miscellaneous applications from the web, and some malware may have come along with one of them.

Once resolved, you’ll want to update passwords.

Light roasted coffee has more caffeine than dark roasted coffee.

Technically, per bean, more of the caffeine is cooked out of the dark roast. However, other things are also roasted out of a dark roast to the point that the individual beans are also lighter and smaller. When brewing coffee, usually you either weigh your dose of beans out, or you use a scoop for some consistency. Either method will result in more dark roast beans ultimately making it into the brew than would with a (larger, heavier) light roast.

Typically, this more than cancels out the reduced caffeine content per bean, so a brew of dark roast coffee still typically has more caffeine in it.

Any reason to use PiHole over something like Adguard DNS?

Really excited about it. I think their experience with the rocky launch and critiques of their world, story, and endings will only have taught them lessons that will benefit Phantom Liberty.

I enjoyed Cyberpunk even early on, but it definitely felt incomplete. I hope the expansion rounds out the features that were lacking and the world can start to feel more immersive and adaptive to the player’s actions.

The new path tracing looks incredible, and I’m looking forward to doing a fresh playthrough to experience the “complete” Cyberpunk experience.
