The year of the Linux desktop will happen when a large (EDIT: large, CONSUMER-FOCUSED AND CONSUMER-FRIENDLY) company decides to donate a remarkable amount of resources to the development and maintenance of a specific distro to make it user friendly and give it the feeling that someone who actually knows better than most users is taking care of important stuff in the background.
…Valve? 👀
I think a good common one is explosions that throw people at least 10 feet without killing them. If the shockwave is strong enough to do that, isn’t it strong enough to tenderize and completely disable all of your internal organs as well?
There’s a scene in Spider-Man: No Way Home where Tom Holland is fighting the Green Goblin. Goblin grabs Spidey, jumps with him, and then they both smash through the 23rd or so floor of the apartment building they’re in and they land on the floor below.
Sure, they’re both super strong but neither of them used their strength to push through the floor. They just jumped and reached no more than like a foot off the floor, implying that gravity pulled them both through the floor. Okay, so the floor was built poorly, but then why did falling 10+ feet from the 23rd floor to the 22nd floor not make them smash through the 22nd floor?
That movie’s a lot of a fun but that scene makes me upset lol
Are people in China or on Chinese social media allowed to talk about it today?
Literally just yesterday I posted about it in my family’s political group chat and my older sister said, and I quote:
“even though I lean left, I'm actually glad that conservatives have a playbook! Why? because Trump's first term presidential transition (2017) was totally bungled... he needs a list of people that he can appoint from, so that these agencies don't just fall apart… Don't kid yourself, Biden's team and Obama's team and the democrats overall definitely have their own playbook and their list of potential appointees. They just don't have to crowdsource theirs!”
cue insane Charlie Kelly screams
Wow… that sounds really bad for the economy
Despite the privacy concerns, Microsoft says that the Recall index remains local and private on-device, encrypted in a way that is linked to a particular user's account.
Just like how Microsoft domain-bound emails were stored locally on machines running Outlook, right? Or how purchasing and downloading music, movies, and video games meant that we owned them, right?
I don’t believe for a fucking second that this “feature” will remain locally encrypted forever. Fuck Microsoft, fuck the AI bubble.
“Don’t be evil!

wait, you say you’ll pay me to be evil? Well fuck that changes everything!”
I thought it said “Clarence Thomas missing eyebrows” and honestly that would make his face look as soulless as his soul is

“How could someone make money with such a stupid idea?”
“And how could you NOT make money with such a BRILLIANT idea!”

Back in my day, AMD was always the butt of this joke. My, how times have changed
