I’ve no real preference so long as my PC starts stuff. The reason I avoid flatpaks is because I have at some point acquired the habit of anything I install that’s not an appimage I pretty much launch from the terminal and I remember trying flatpaks and them having names like package.package.nameofapp-somethingelse and I can’t keep that in my head.

Doesn’t the appellate court only accept the case if there’s an issue with the ruling in a lower court? It’s absolutely loaded, but it’s hard to see an alternative without giving up the right to appeal.

You’d prefer to lose the right to appeal?

For a WD Red? Get that shingled magnetic shit out of my NAS.

UK petition has less than 5k to go!

About 37

Why doesn’t the journalist ask “in what way does this impact your freedom of religion” and then stand there while they tie themselves in knots trying to answer the question.

Just stop oil protestors are a lot easier to round up to be fair, generally being quite peaceful and significantly less likely to throw petrol bombs.

I swear rioting season starts earlier and earlier every year. Shops will have half bricks on sale as soon as Easter is over soon.

So ehhh, I’m thinking of starting a submarine company, do you want to be in sales and marketing?

Jane Mayer’s Dark Money should be a compulsory read.

Has this not been the state of the games industry for the most of time? Small bedroom coders get a break, build a studio, fire out some games, get bought out of grow huge. The founders move on and start a new studio, rinse, repeat. The games industry has always appeared pretty democratic in that specific regard, barrier to entry is pretty low compared to most other industries.

As for the over performance of older games, have they noticed they get cheaper and less shit than on launch?

I’ll probably fuck my terminology up here, forgive me, I try. Questions I have:

Are there a lot of people who look at other people’s genitals in public toilets?

Can these people be arrested because I think they might be perverts and I don’t want them looking at my kids?

Are people going to have to start showing their genitals to security guards?

Has someone given security guards the right to demand to see people’s genitals?

How the fuck does that even work when someone’s had gender reassignment surgery?

Presumably trans men must now use the women’s toilets?

Does someone who’s had gender reassignment surgery need to bring their full medical history with them in order to prove they’re using the “correct” toilet?

Not aimed particularly at you flamingos - just questions that are coming to mind reading this thread.

Seems to me this would be a lot simpler if people would just stop looking at other people’s genitals in toilets uninvited.

How would they know what genitals someone has? Did I miss the memo where we’re supposed to look at other people’s genitals in the toilets? I’m not on board with this.

This is the same person that once said “it’s not right to say only women have a cervix”

Zero conviction.

Sounds awesome!

Can I plug in an hdmi cable/keyboard/mouse and use it like a desktop and is there some way I can mount the android storage? (Eg can I get access to docs/pics/downloads)

I’ve got a helmet like that, only works on women though…

Yeah makes sense, Focus definitely ends production at the end of the year. Always been a fan of Fords in general, decent quality, decent price, just all round decent cars.

Mid century capitalism was certainly more worker focussed. CEOs salaries were more like single digit/low double digit multiples of average worker salaries. Profit got reinvested into development. Companies would literally brag about how well their employees were paid. This is the era that saw the US become a powerhouse globally.

Then Jack fucking Welch came along. He’s the motherfucker that started this crap with closing marginally profitable departments because it increased the overall profitability of the company as a %, which increased the stock price.
