Hell yeah. I was considering a C5, but saw people online saying ads are present on LG.

I use shield anyway, but I will probably just follow your advice and set default input to the shield

Anybody have un-enshittified 4k tv recommendations?

Mainly want good picture quality for movies + high refresh rate for games.

It also isn’t as performant for the price, or so I’ve heard. They’re working on it, but it isn’t up to par with big name companies.

Didn’t she and her husband get together when she was a minor and he was 24 and had been convicted of indecent exposure to 2 minors at a bowling alley?

At least it can be contested then. It will get more support from people. If they’re going to rig it (hack machines, miscount votes), nothing can be done. But if they’re just trying to weasel they’re way into disenfranchising people, they can be beaten with turnout - and all the republican redistricting (gerrymandering) efforts have razor thin margins, lots of opportunities to flip seats and districts in elections leading up to the big one.

Vote hard enough that they legitimately lose, so that the correct course of action is more justified

It already is, of course, but a large majority needs to agree

Came here to say this. I get what he’s trying to say, but we are all definitely apes. And that’s pretty cool - apes are awesome.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hominidae:

The Hominidae (/hɒˈmɪnɪdiː/; hominids /ˈhɒmɪnɪdz/), whose members are known as the great apes,[note 1] are a taxonomic family of primates that includes eight extant species in four genera: Pongo (the Bornean, Sumatran and Tapanuli orangutan); Gorilla (the eastern and western gorilla); Pan (the chimpanzee and the bonobo); and Homo, of which only modern humans (Homo sapiens) remain.[1]

It’s a type of kei car - a kei truck

I’m not saying it’s rational, it just feels like more money.

Little different for me:

$1 - 5 = $5

$6 - 12 = $10

$13 - 20 = $20

$21 - 50 = $50

$51 - 70 = $100

>$70 = $1000

I am genuinely curious why people are so angry and are jumping to conclusions, willing to boycott a company that has done great things for media preservation over an inconvlusive statement about something that will likely have minimal or no effect on them, GOGs employees, or the user experience of their platform.

AI assistance is a tool. Why would they ban their developers and maintainers from using Windsurf, for instance? Or their design folks from using AI tools to help make mockups? It doesn’t make any sense. If their workforce wants to make use of AI tools responsibly… why is that a problem?

AI use does not mean they will start churning out slop. And, frankly, GOG is a software distributor/vendor… they don’t have creative control over the games they sell. The AI would be in the behind the scenes development of their platform, not in the products. The only way it’d affect users is if they put it in the user interface somehow (but… how and why would they?)

Get wrecked, bozo 🤡

Lots of these creeps could do that. The thing is they won’t to “protect their legacy” when, ironically, speaking out, admitting their own crimes, apologizing to their victims & taking full legal and personal accountability, and taking the other bastards down would be the best thing they could do to leave something of a positive legacy and begin to atone.

Art of the deal, folks

I’ll believe it when I see it

Is it? That email is indistinguishable from others I’ve seen that were real. Some recruiters and companies are genuinely awful.

Giving specific interview feedback in writing is legally fraught, so it is not typically done. It’s common courtesy to say “sorry but we went with someone else”, but most places don’t bother which is shitty.

Edit: I get the joke now. Advice stands though!

As someone who works with recruiters literally every day, that is absolutely bullshit. It is 100% normal and expected to discuss compensation.

There are some no-nos, like don’t just lie to them blatantly about your comp or job experience. That’s kinda shitty - especially if you get caught and then double down on an obvious lie. What are they supposed to do with that? Feel free to embellish a bit, but if you get caught in a lie it will sour negotiations (for understandable reasons)

It’s fine to withhold info, of course, but they may be able to give you MORE money if you can give them details of your competing offer, etc. Or your current compensation IF you know it’s already competitive/high - if you’re underpaid or are unsure or going in for a higher level job, better to let them guess.

You can also hold off on disclosing anything about your pay (actual or desired) until later on once you’ve passed the interviews, but also it sucks to invest the time and stress of interviews only to find out they won’t pay you what you need for the job. But negotiations will be anchored to your stated compensation (actual or expected)

Negotiating in good faith to get the best deal you can is not and should not be looked negatively on by any serious employer. If anything, they see you negotiating as a signal that you are confident in the value of your labor/skills
