You’re really proving their point here. You’re starting with the false assumption that both sides have good ideas, and the best solution must be somewhere in the middle. If one side’s platform is based entirely on lies, this is an idiotic position to take. It’s an ideology for privileged autofellatio enthusiasts who haven’t bothered to really figure out what’s going on, because it’s much easier to just pretend you’re the smart one, and everyone’s getting upset over nothing.
Hey man, Ivanka was in my freshman english class, and I’m not taking any responsibility for that shit-show.
Not familiar with bcdedit but I could try.
Yeah, I wouldn’t say I am, either—strictly a dabbler. For me, it’s just a matter of finding various forum posts from other people trying to get it working, and applying different suggested fixes until something works (ideally). There are tons of helpful comments out there, if you can find them.
I wouldn’t mess with bcdedit unless you get linux installed, but there’s no boot entry for it in your bios.
I recently got my old Dell dual-booting windows 10 and mint. Didn’t have issues getting mint installed (I used Etcher to burn the ISO to a USB drive), but windows absolutely didn’t want to play nice with Grub, and I had to use bcdedit to get it to load the boot menu. Working fine now, though! Looking at some articles, it seems like f10 is probably your bios key. It really ought to be able to boot from usb; my mobo is 12 years old and supports it.
Such a cool show! I discovered it via another comment a year or two ago(maybe yours? If so, thanks!). Hopefully I can get my daughter to watch it eventually without resorting to some Ludovico-style shenanigans.
Maybe not directly, but if those who are running for office are held to a higher standard of truth, it’s going to reduce the sphere of influence of Farage and others like him, who deal almost exclusively in falsehoods. He won’t be able to get these people to come on his podcast, or whatever platform he has, and agree with his lies if they’re afraid of being held liable for it. He’d be pushed out of the mainstream political sphere.
Would you care to expand on this? My impression is that he did what he did out of ethical concerns, and has paid a high price for it.
I picked up “Yakuza 0” on sale not too long ago, and I’m enjoying it so much that I picked up the rest of the remastered series while it was on sale. Based on how long I’m spending mucking around in the first one, It may take me the rest of my life to get through them all. I don’t know how “Like a Dragon” compares to the earlier games, but I really enjoy the narrative, combat, sub-stories, and mini-games in “0”.
As an aside, I really enjoy a well-done pool mini-game. I probably spent more time playing pool in the various space stations in “Rebel Galaxy Outlaw” than doing anything else. Likewise, Kiryu spends a lot of time in the pool hall, as well as hanging around the batting cages, and fine-tuning his pocket racers.
For a really fun prank, coerce your friends into driving truckfuls of nitroglycerin hundreds of miles down a dodgy road through the jungle.
Definitely a totally valid read! I try to indulge my pedantic impulses without being too obnoxious. And I didn’t mean to imply that you were also being critical of the meme.
Sure! Never argued otherwise.
~98.6° is what I grew up learning, but it’s really a range of around 97°-99° depending on the person.
That’s what bugged me about this meme: as @Turun@feddit.de points out above, you’d have to travel billions of years into the past in order to wind up that far away. Nobody using a time machine would have any reason to do that, unless it was part of some fiendish plot against humanity, à la the Temporal Cold War from Star Trek: Enterprise. We should all demand more accuracy in our science memes.
You’re the one that was deflecting from their point by bringing up Sweden, which is irrelevant. You made a very clear false equivalence in your OP, and then kept hurling invective at anyone who responded. Honestly, you just come off like an unhinged asshole with a sadly common lack of media literacy. Do try to be more useful, and less of an idiot.
Honestly, in the primary, I’d expect that number to be a hell of a lot higher. Then again, there aren’t any other real options.
Thank you for the correction, I remember reading about the Epic exclusivity now. I look forward to picking it up when it goes on sale! Such is my way. I knew there was a solid Star Trek Stellaris scene, but I’m just a dabbler in 4x games. My favorite Trek games are probably A Final Unity and the Interplay TOS adventures from 30 years ago.
Edited to add, Bridge Crew is moderately fun as a single player game. Would probably be a blast with a group of friends.
I don’t think a 4x strategy game is the best approach to the franchise. What’s more, this game used the Stellaris engine, and there’s already an excellent, total-conversion Star Trek mod for Stellaris.
I’d love to see a Trek game by a competent adventure dev like Wadget Eye. Hopefully Resurgence will be good, but I’ll not be holding my breath; most recent Trek games have been low quality cash-grabs, bulging with microtransactions.
That part didn’t make sense to me, either, but my brain kind of elided it until I saw these comments. You’re right, it’s gotta be a genie that was created by a wish with a monkey’s paw. That brings up another question: do monkeys even have paws? A quick search indicates that they have, as I suspected, hands and feet! I blame W.W. Jacobs for this. Did the guy ever even see a monkey? I’m finding this hard to establish.
Further bulletins as events warrant.
I generally agree with your stance regarding humor with a victim. Stupid and regressive. Caveman stuff. I don’t know if that precisely applies here, although I don’t see any humor in the comic either. Maybe that wasn’t the intent ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Ah yes, another casus belli for the generation war. The whole concept of generalizing an entire cohort of humanity is bogus. Just another nonsense distraction to generate a bunch of clickbait bullshit articles, and get people angry at the young or the old, instead of the rich. No war but the class war.
Edit: Not really directed at you, OP.
