Invested / Endowed Value - Having already spent time and money to improve your status in the game, it’s difficult to throw it away.
Isn’t that every game? I can’t think of a single game, back to old Atari 2600 or arcade games, that doesn’t have this element. Many people are playing to see how far they can get, to beat the game.
I don’t think anyone really has missiles that can do that. It was intended to be a joke about Elon’s ego.
Nah, Putin will hit him where it hurts: He’ll fire a missile into space to destroy the Tesla Elon put up there.
Well remember many of them got $1000 bonuses as a reward from their employers for voting Trump, or something.
Was Four Seasons Landscaping booked this time?
I’m wondering how many people skipped your comment because it was too long.
I’ve had people go “I don’t have time to read 3 paragraphs!”, as though that’s some kind of argument against the point I’m trying to make. Attention spans are down.
Looks like I’m on 1password 8 in Linux. For whatever reason, I just prefer the app instead of having the browser pop open 1password.com to edit records. I don’t know why, it just bugs me. I know part of it is that I want to use the native app to show support for it.
When you “drain the swamp” what is left is all of the muck and mud at the bottom of it.
The plugin works fine, but it can’t call the separate program if you have that installed.
Because I wanted it to integrate with 1password full client.
Every time this is asked, I post the same comment. I used Kubuntu for years and liked it, but more recently they started doing things that annoyed me. The biggest was related to snaps and Firefox. Now, sandboxing a browser is probably a great idea, but I wanted to use the regular deb install, so I followed the directions to disable the snap install and used the deb. However, Ubuntu overrode that decision several times - I’d start browsing, then realize I was using a snap AGAIN. Happened a few times over a couple years. If it happened once, eh, maybe an error, but it happened 3 or 4 times. I came to the conclusion I wasn’t in control of my system, Ubuntu was.
I switched to Debian and am happy with my choice.
Those are those post-birth abortions Trump was complaining about.
Why do people think a dozen eggs costs $12?
A quick search turned up this 18 count of eggs for $9 at our local chain. And that was just the first result I found that had the price on the page (you have to click a button to see it, unfortunately, but it is there).
I actually think he does believe the lies he spouts. For him, reality is whatever he wants it to be in that moment.
Are you saying he didn’t use a riffle?
Yeah. I grew up in the days of serial ports and parallel ports, and USB in general is so much better for most purposes. (I recall plugging my first mouse into the serial port…but wait! Where will my Hayes Smartmodem modem plug into then? Also, don’t plug and unplug things from the serial port while the computer is running.)
And USB-C is even better. My tablet needs a charge? Well my laptop charger is right here… My phone is low and needs a quick charge? Well my USB-C tablet charger will give it a decent boost very quickly. No worries about getting it plugged in the wrong way, either.
I have a docking station for my work laptop, so when I had to replace my personal laptop, a laptop that supported USB-C power delivery was mandatory. I don’t use it with the docking station very often, but knowing I can without an issue is great. My wife also has a Macbook that works on the docking station, too, in case she ever wants to use my dual monitor setup. All three laptops, from three different brands, are just plug in and go.
I gave up running an email server long ago - I thought it was basically impossible because too many spammers were doing it for nefarious purposes.
I came across a bowling arcade game that ran Linux. Still kind of wishing I’d bought it.
I saw a Trump/Vance sign the other day that had started as a Trump/Pence sign originally, and they just changed the first two letters of the VP’s name - the different color of those two letters made it clear.
It made me wonder if Trump picked Vance because his name was so similar to Pence.
Equally? That seems optimistic. He’ll go even farther off the deep end. Even if he wins, he’ll contest it, because he clearly should have won by a larger margin.
