Surely in 30 billion years nothing could possibly happen to the supercooled strontium to throw that off, right?

It’s not easy committing to the change when you have no knowledge of the platform. The status quo is always easier until it no longer is.

Having seen how different Linux is from what it was 20 years ago, it’s way more approachable than it used to be. Most people could adjust pretty quickly, but with so much of the technical bits hidden from sight, the average PC user these days isn’t as tech savvy as they were many years ago, and making the switch can be intimidating.

Trump has been rambling incoherently for years. Nothing he says makes any sense but he speaks confidently enough that the uneducated masses can’t even tell it’s nonsense.

Back in my day, the stocks were kept in the public square.

Not one of the types you were asking about, but Hades feels like it’s made for the Steam Deck, and it’s a great game (and also on sale)

For FPS games, Doom (2016) is one of the all-time single-player FPS games and runs great on the Deck.

Are you really comparing someone flying a drone over your property to slavery?

You can’t really get a jammer to disable only a drone. The jamming will affect an area all around, likely affecting the neighbors’ wifi, bluetooth connections, and other radio signals like cellphones, for example.

If that happens, it would get noticed, reported, and investigated very quickly.

Also super illegal and easy to get caught for.

200 kg? Try 800 kg

Which Pi alternatives don’t?

Sure, if you’re actually being safe and following good security practices, the risk is low, but the average user does not follow all the best practices.

Which is the same reason they make characters of different races, genders and sexualities in video games.

And people complain about these things “being forced on them” obviously without realizing that all those minorities are typically not represented in media. It’s such a minor thing that should be easy to ignore if it doesn’t apply to you, but when it does apply, feels good to know that someone was thinking about representing someone like you.

Matt Groening said he made the characters in the Simpsons yellow with oddly colored hair so that people would be confused by the colors and try to adjust the knobs on their TVs to fix it only to never get it quite right.

No balls, you won’t do it!

It’s just because caliber is a real word, but calibur isn’t. It’s been used for a long time in different media to name swords after King Arthur’s sword Excalibur.

The chickenpox virus persists in your body and can surface decades later as shingles. Look up what that experience is like if you want. I can assure you it’s not pleasant. Once you get that, there’s no getting rid of it. Children should NOT be made to purposely catch chickenpox. It puts them at rsignificant risk of debilitating disease later on.

One vaccine is effective at preventing both, and there’s no real reason not to get it unless you’re allergic to the ingredients.

Sure, serves them, but what about the vaccinated people who were infected because of them?

Back in my day, our parents made us get it, and it suckd pretty bad.

A chickenpox infection lingers in the body and can surface years later as shingles, which can be debilitating, especially for older adults. Having personally had shingles as a teenager when it’s not dangerous, I can assure you that you don’t want to get it because someone else refused to get vaccinated. When I had it, vaccines for chickenpox and shingles didn’t exist yet.

I can’t really endorse literally forcing vaccinations, but penalties for not being vaccinated are ok in my book.

Jakrajutatip appears to agree, saying, “We can have real-size beauty, the contestant. Very big size … [But] we’ll have to control the audience [lest] they vote all for the big size.”

I haven’t seen the video, so I can’t really tell from text what the tone is, but these words are pretty damning, and I’m curious what context they could be in that they would seem ok. It doesn’t sound to me like she’s saying the likelihood is low, it sounds like she’s saying “if you don’t fit our definition, we don’t want you to win.”
