Same. Tariffs is dumb, nobody wins in a trade war. Every product becomes shit, the supply chain creaks, and anybody who works in supply chain has ulcers trying to figure out how to make the situation suck less. All for tax revenue that is stupid expensive to actually collect.

Got me there. Nvidia drivers are just terrible, I never had these problems when I used an AMD GPU. But if it's any consolation, the Nvidia drivers on my work Dell are terrible too.

That implies that anybody who would buy a Cybertruck actually uses their signals and doesn't just cut everyone off. Shifting into drive and reverse is what got me. That's terrifying, potentially getting stuck into park in the middle of traffic because you are trying to clear a smudge on the screen

Paying for services rendered is for poor people. Rich folks expect someone else to always do the work and pay for it.

At this point, an Aztek would be more welcome than a Cybertruck. Sucker has lived for 20 years and still going strong.

I mean, orange man promised to raise Tariffs. That's a tax increase for almost everything. Even the "Made in America" stuff still has components or parts made in China. Or their supplier has to raise prices across the board to absorb tariffs in their processes.

A lot to say for widescreen, richer colors, and that sort of crazy energy UY had. I am curious to see if they make it less... Hurtful on trans stuff.

At this point the most fiddling is figuring out if you need to do a proton override for a game. And most don't need it anymore they just work. Only a few weird older games make me jump through hoops.

Considering expected tip because we live in Hell, yes I could expect that. I may also be biased because the closest Taco Bell to me is 3 miles away with heavy traffic, while a Taco Del Mar is a quarter mile at most from me and a pleasant 10 minute walk.

Tex's Magistratum Mundanous campaign on YouTube is really good for that. It's a police procedural done with Dark Heresy and it's really neat. Has a lot of neat downtime activities.

I'll do this with an electric bike or a scooter or something, but not a gasser. Mostly because you have a rue Goldberg machine to put together afterwards

Another core infrastructure issue. Pent up furries means America's internet infrastructure and cloud computing services are at risk. Won't find a sizable IT department in America that doesn't have at least a fur or a trans woman (with a significant amount being both)

There were some chestnuts that didn't make it to the graphic Removing all transit authority funding Increased tariffs Reducing oversight on rail, aerospace, and shipping Ending NOAA (and by proxy the national weather service) This is core infrastructure, and how developed countries lose that.

Somehow took a Hind D gunship down with deer arrows with a frag grenade stuck to it. I can't remember if he got in the cockpit or lit off it's rocket pods or got it in the crew bay or something.

Star Trek Deep Space 9: Metal Gear Solid 5. That.... Actually would track really well. Cardassia conflicts already felt heavily inspired from the IRL Soviet/US/Afghan war. Star Trek Big Boss would slap.

I was that way with armored core 6 as well with the Helicopter boss. It's pretty much the "Use Stagger ya Dingus" moment. Then later on you fight one again and you beat it like a drum with better gear and much more skill.

Starwars rebels followed up what was in the clone wars, that the Empire had done core superstructure construction on Geonosis and took advantage of the hive mind there. Then after the station could be moved, they gassed the planet. The empire genocided a planet to make death star happen.

In a way, it's not all of us that is a problem, it's that this world incentives a particular set of behaviors as normal, being behaviors that prosper in a capitalist hellcape. But that may be projecting on the past as well so ehhh

Allergies in childhood that go away later is pretty normal. I was allergic to Oranges and Chocolate as a kid but could drink milk a lot. Now oranges and chocolate don't bother me but I'm now lactose intolerant. Bodies change a bunch.

Not always, in TN they threw the kids to the wolves. Schools were only closed for a month or so, same for restaurants and such. And this was in Memphis, which tried at least. The ones in Knoxville and other parts were much more worse they acted like nothing was wrong within a few months.

Inochi2D not adequate to the task? Mind you my biggest beef right now in Linux is audio occasionally gets weird and tinny due to pipe wire not getting priority and the Nvidia sound drivers being really touchy about latency. Doesn't happen with headphones with their own DAC

In Seattle, sun has been out 20 of the days of the last month, with 10+ being cloudless blue skys. It has been cool temp though. Today was the first day it broke 80. But I'm biased I'm a southern transplant, 80 isn't hot to me and the rain here aint nothing compared to monsoon season back in TN
