It isn’t really a good alternative, but Walmart.com has nearly as wide of a selection and the same delivery times.

Not that Walmart is a better company.

Bring or get some large ear covering headphones. Wear them all the time regardless of if you are listening to anything. Ignore attempts to distract. Practice and say, “sorry, focused right now” and go back to work.

Ahh yes. Our weekly once in a life time crisis. Right on cue.

I know this is unpopular, but I don’t understand why people care so much about which storefront they use to buy a game. I buy it where it is cheapest.

Hell, Epic takes less of a share of the sale. It is better for devs.

For me, the social aspect of the store I buy games from is irrelevant.

Ignoring hype is the best way to consume media.

Seconded. I actually enjoyed the game for what it was, almost Skyrim in space. Almost, don’t shoot me for saying that.

I had fun with the various factions, with constellation, and the story was reasonably unique but maybe not extremely enthralling.

That said, my expectations were basically zero. I purposefully ignore all prerelease hype about video games as it tends to ruin the actual experience of playing the game for the first time.

Anyone that has tried the new version, does plex still make it really difficult to view your library by folder/file rather than by meta data?

I use jellyfin because I can get a folder view.

Women deciding to avoid men and men are calling it “man-hating”.

I’m so surprised.

lol. Imagine still using chrome.

Thanks for this post. Yet another power tripper that is blocked (from the drama link)

Family court. Prison time. Homeless assistance. Failing education rates for boys. And on and on.

There’s a huge amount of topics in “men’s rights”

Not in America.

I wouldn’t call the 2024 primaries fair. Biden was ordained, like Clinton.

There’s a reason these predetermined candidates keep losing.

Israel

Men’s rights

Boys being left behind in school

The Democratic Party needs to run a candidate that is elected through a fair primary process. When this happens, dems win.

2008 - Obama was popular and won the primary 2012 - same 2016 - It was deemed Clinton’s turn, she was given every advantage, and lost 2020 - Biden won the primary as elected by the people, then won again 2024 - Harris was given the candidacy without having to primary, and lost

It is a simple trend.

Didn’t show up on my win11 pro desktop pc.

Who care how someone else uses the bathroom.

Your questions.

1. no. That’s silly. If you are doing #2, you do both sitting.

2. yes, but decades of practice mean I can stand and pee in nearly any mental state

3. reasonably clean. I’ve good aim and we clean the floor regularly

4. to crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and hear the lamentation of the women!

More likely, they’ve been doing this for many years and it is basically obsolete, so they are spilling the beans now.

Or not and we really are doomed.

Software engineering work.

Mac for code and other work tasks

Windows for personal use during work

Linux for hosted applications and side projects.

That seems like some one off or a rural connection.

I work with a large remote team across the US. Most people on my team have gig internet, some get slower 100 meg internet. Mine is gig, I pay $60/mo and have no data cap.
