That’s lame

They’re on the B ark.

Ah, wow that sucks! The history is the biggest selling point of this series for me. I generally ignore trailers if I think I’m going to play or watch something, and AC games are always an automatic buy for me, but it sounds like I’m gonna be sitting this one out unless they make some major course corrections.

I’m OOTL what’s wrong this time?

I just use chatGPT to search now. I have a super-prompt in its memory telling it how to search and to cite sources and provide links and it is so much better than Google even though it’s using AI, too.

*The future is now, old men!

The Flashcart. But I’ll take the plane!

Get him a MIG!

Yeah they’re subsidizing the price to get between you and reality.

My pi-hole blocks SO MUCH traffic from my Rokus. Never buying another Roku again.

That seems not good, like a supervillain pair in the making

It’s too late, they killed him despite the prosecutors and victims family and DNA evidence all pointing towards his innocence. I have seen stories about him everywhere for the last week but apparently Missouri isn’t bothered by negative press, they just love killing black people. An aptly named state; I hope its residents riot but I’ve been to St. Louis and know better than that. I’m afraid this is the new status quo.

I have a middle schooler. Skibidi means bad.

But skibidi means bad.

Wtf are you talking about? Are you that hard up for an argument? Lemmy.ml is thataway. Anyway I’m Jewish and have been my whole life so the three months of Christmas in America made me feel extremely isolated and excluded as a kid, but I actually got to participate in Halloween. You can try and invalidate the experience of millions of non-christian non-white Americans but that doesn’t make you quirky and unique, either. No one is thinking “wow this dude is so smart!” for pointing out the capitalist undertone that’s shared by literally every holiday in western society. Now do kindly fuck off.

The holiday about spooky things and kids dressing up and getting candy is not religiously exclusionary no. Christmas’ origins were not, either, but we’re not talking about the origins of these holidays, we’re discussing them in their current form, so go be a pedant on some other thread. I’m sure there’s plenty where the pedantry could actually be relevant to the conversation taking place.

You’re gd right. Halloween is not a religious exclusionary holiday.

Ripped.guide is the place to see exactly where you should avoid. :)

Let’s talk about Hunter Biden’s laptop. The laptop became a focal point of political controversy in the United States during the 2020 presidential election. The story began in October 2020 when the New York Post published an article claiming to have obtained a copy of a laptop belonging to Hunter Biden. The laptop reportedly contained emails, texts, and other documents that raised questions about Hunter Biden’s business dealings, particularly in Ukraine and China.

The laptop was allegedly left at a repair shop in Delaware, and after it was never picked up, the shop owner reportedly turned it over to the FBI and made a copy of the hard drive, which was later given to Rudy Giuliani, former President Donald Trump’s personal lawyer.

The story sparked a massive political debate. Republicans and Trump supporters argued that the contents of the laptop suggested potential corruption involving Joe Biden. Democrats and many media outlets, however, were skeptical of the timing and the origins of the laptop story, suggesting it could be part of a disinformation campaign, possibly linked to foreign interference.

So here’s what always bothered me about this story. Why was it left in a repair shop in Delaware and never picked up? Super secret super personal documents on a laptop without a password or any encryption is just dumped at a random repair shop and never picked up? And the owner hand delivers it to Giuliani?

And why should we care? Biden has never had his family working in his administration like Trump did. Most Republicans can’t name a single cabinet member of the current administration but they can name Hunter and Jill so that’s who they go after. How are his alleged crimes even relevant?

As far as Kyle Rittenhouse goes, why are you defending a kid who drove an hour to bring an automatic weapon across state lines to enthusiastically hunt down liberal protestors (in kinder words than he put it.) You’re clearly not here in good faith if you’re spreading the falsehood that what he did was in self defence or in any way defendable.

That’s fantastic for you, but a quick Google search will bring up plenty of articles and reddit threads of people bitching about this and other ways the Chromecast has been broken over the years.
