If you’re targeted for kidnapping/rendition, your choice is to either die in an El Salvadoran prison or to die in a hail of bullets with the hope of at least taking a few Nazi thugs with you. Due process is not an option. That’s what’s happening now. It’s not a hypothetical.
Hey @admiralpatrick, come say your catchphrase!
Anyway, the answer is: if they didn’t have double standards, they’d have no standards at all.
Nah, not a rowboat; go for a sailboat.

(You’re trying to shitpost, but I’ve actually been considering the issue seriously, LOL.)
If you go back enough generations, nobody’s family tree branches.
At the very least, us 10%ers could be advocating for things that lower the carbon cost of our lifestyle, such as zoning reform.
Note that I’m not talking about reducing the quality of our lifestyle. I’m talking about maintaining or improving the quality while making it more efficient.
Flying once very likely puts you in that top 10%. Remember, the bottom 50% are subsistence farmers from Africa etc. living on like $1000/year.
And half the time they get mad when you point it out.
He didn’t and still doesn’t, but he absolutely cares about rewriting history to support his Big Lie.
Rhode Island is in the North, though. Check out Hilton Head, SC for perhaps a better example of the problem — they call their gated subdivisions “plantations” and don’t appear to be ashamed of it at all.
Correct. Firefox was a rewrite separate from the old Netscape/Mozilla SeaMonkey codebase.
It’s literally not worth the electricity to keep computers that old running. You could replace one with a $5 Raspberry Pi Zero or maybe even a $2 microcontroller and recoup the cost in lower power bills within a month or so.
Can confirm:
When I bought an RX Vega 56 on launch day seven years ago and installed it the same day, I had to go with the proprietary AMDGPU-PRO driver (on Kubuntu) because the Free drivers didn’t support it yet.
When I bought an RX 9070 XT on launch day two months ago but took a few weeks to install it (because it was wider than my old Vega I had to get a different case, which I spent a little while deciding on), I had to upgrade to the actual latest mainline kernel instead of the one Kubuntu shipped with, but then it “just worked” without any proprietary drivers. (The same would’ve been true had I installed it immediately on launch day as 6.13.5, which added support for it, came out before the card was released.)
Of course, it suddenly occurs to me upon reading this thread that I haven’t tried the new card out with GPGPU or LLM-type stuff yet, and since I’m not using the proprietary driver this time I guess I still need to install ROCm. Oops, LOL.
I’m willing to bet it varied by employee diligence. I think it’s much less likely to be a company policy of not giving out the manuals to renters and more likely to be that they didn’t quit renting the game after somebody failed to return the manual.
GameFAQs etc. need to be archived in a public database and incorporated into stuff like RetroArch.
Somebody made a good point in another thread a while back (or maybe it was The 8-Bit Guy in a youtube video?) that a lot of times the manual got read as you were riding in the car back home from the store since you couldn’t play the thing yet.
Is there a database of scans of old video game manuals somewhere? Seems like something that would be great to add to stuff like RetroArch etc., along side the automatic download of box art and such.

KDE gathered a lot of initial hate because the Qt widget library it relied on used to not be proper Free Software. (That was fixed about two decades ago, though.)
Exactly: judges won’t start standing up against Trump until they start getting more threatening pizzas from non-MAGAs than they do from MAGAs.
