What a pick me…

I get a chai latte multiple times a week. They’re excellent. Iced tho so no art. Milk is pretty great.

What’s more, all keyless cars still have a fob with proximity and if the fob dies, they legally have to have a way to start the car without the fob battery which is why they all have an nfc reader somewhere (usually in a cup holder) so you can put you dead fob on it and the car will start like normal.

That’s really unnecessary, even as a joke.

Is this game accessible for someone who knows absolutely nothing about the series?

For anyone interested in game development: Balatro is made with Love2D. Which means the exe you download from steam can be unzipped using just about any zip program (might need to change the file extension from exe to zip) and the whole source code and 2D asset files are available for perusing. Not even obfuscated, full variable names and comments available to inspect as a real world example of a working game that has sold like hotcakes because the end result is good. Let it inspire you, let it teach you :)

It’s especially irresponsible because you just know that this kid and his team (if he has one) gave in to any and all demands of the trump campaign. No leverage, nothing in return, no facts, no value.

Donating $20 directly to a creator or buying one item from their merch will more than offset a lifetime of ad revenue from just yourself if you use ad blockers for their content. The fractional pennies you are worth to them is completely eclipsed by directly supporting most of them a single time.

My point was more about timeline. Is my company’s RTO mandate from 2022 part of the 3%? 8%? How are they counting? The article wasn’t very clear to me so I must be missing something.

We’ve been full RTO since mid-2022, what’s that 3% actually counting?

Edit- mid 2022. Damn time is weird.

I disagree. It’s not a remix, it’s a rework/edit which is designed to maximize the amount of streaming revenue on platforms such as Spotify. We saw the same thing with “skit” songs and interludes as well as 30+ track album releases. All to get more plays on streaming, at the expense of the art.

Long cycles is a strategy of the institutional parties. Both sides in the US. It’s endlessly tiring by design, so that no one fatal campaign misstep/flaw can tank the whole platform.

I agree, we need to bring it back to at least a few months instead of 2+ years.

Honestly this isn’t too surprising or unreasonable. The White House can and should reach as many people as possible for a variety of communication reasons. Twitter is still wildly popular and has reach, so it’s a no brainer to tag along. They also post on many other social media platforms for the same reason. It’s not really a big deal imo.

GPT4ALL for chat and Automatic1111 for generative with downloaded models works great. The former does not require a gpu but the later generally does.

Same deal, got a full 3-2-1 backup of all my data! Easy to recover if I make a mistake but even easier to replace with higher quality newer builds of Linux isos.

Storage is cheap. There’s no reason to delete content.

This is why I always get a Costco 18" pizza for $10 every time I’m at the store. Yes, the pizza quality is not great, but neither are any of these other chains that charge 3x (or more) for less pizza of similar quality.

But what does that matter when the platform has plenty of competition? This is what doesn’t make sense to me. Google chose to allow other app stores. That’s a feature of the platform. Apple chose to not allow sideloading or other app stores, again, as a feature.

Who is forcing people to use Apple devices?

Why doesn’t this extend to other platforms like Nintendo or PlayStation whose stores are explicit features of the platforms?

This is what never made sense to me about this argument.

Who exactly is forcing people to buy iPhones? How is the platform anti-competition when there’s loads of competition all around it, in equally as large numbers?

The walled garden has always been a feature, a selling point. And people choose to adopt it or not.

Can you explain better how the logic in your argument above goes, with that in mind?

Ok? Which part of what I said was irrelevant in your mind?
