Wealthy or young professionals who can make a significant amount more money in America vs. Canada, which is generally the same thing.

Listen to interviews of him in the 80s, 2000s, and 2016. His vocabulary and coherence had dropped significantly before his first term. It hasn't gotten better.

Actually, due to some mod shenanigans, they tried to close the community to move it to a less trans-friendly instance, where the use of neopronouns would not be enforced. The community said no and formed a new community on their original instance, got new mods, hookers, and blackjack.

As for the Trek split, here's a long, detailed, long post about it...

Onehundredninetysix and the Trek meme split.

No one has said it yet, but the most common cause of a breaker being thrown is an overload or a short. It looks like you've determined it isn't an overload since it happens when the device isn't turned on. That indicates that you may have a short. The two likely places are the PSU (since it's supposed to be turned off) and the cord (since the PSU wouldn't matter). If the cord is replaceable, I'd try that first. After the cord I'd see about replacing the PSU. Hopefully it's a standard part and not something you have to buy from Ender if they still carry it. Another thing to check is if it's the outlet. If you try it on a different outlet and get the same problem, it is likely the device.

More or less than Göring?

The CEO was basically a nobody. A rich nobody, certainly, but a nobody. I didn't know of his existence before he was killed, and I'm sure I'm in the same group as a majority of Americans and the rest of the world. Likewise, I don't know how who replaced him. So why would there be division? You'll get some objective, impersonal "He was a father and husband, this is terrible," and some objective, somewhat more emotional "He made his money by refusing sick people care," but there isn't a lot of arguing because even though it was very real, it's still in the realm of the hypothetical for most people. Even kids killed in a school half a world away is more real, and more emotional, for most people because they have kids, will have kids, or were a kid in a situation not too dissimilar, and it could have been them if not for their different circumstances.

It's kind of like string theory. Very technical, could theoretically happen, definitely proposed by experts, but currently no way to test or observe to prove it one way or another. So, could be true, or could be a wild idea that isn't actually real.

WFH is good. Teams sucks. I feel like there HAS to be something, anything better because Teams simply can't be the best there is.

Statistically, that's usually how it ended.

Vacuum bots are pretty great, too.

Those spoilers deserve an upvote.

I'm sure those were paid actors in this false flag operation.

Similar for me. In the moment, talking about dying doesn't feel like a joke. After you've seen enough and come out the other side, death doesn't feel significant or threatening enough to have to worry about joking about. I feel like those who joke about killing themselves have either never felt like doing it or have confronted it and moved on.

And suicide jokes are probably best kept for groups where you know where people are. A lot of people mask being suicidal by joking around and putting a lot of work into being upbeat, often surprising those who only know them superficially when they commit suicide.

I have an Oracle cloud account for access to their free VPS. I'm part of a virtual TTRPG playing with my kids and their friends over half the continent and don't have to deal with fighting to get computers to see a server on my home network. I'm operating in the cracks, living off the crumbs of their paid services, using barely enough of their resources to even count as a rounding error. It's a win for me.

Let's not think of all the infrastructure to get what they sell to the people who buy it or that gets the stuff you buy to you. And if your response is, "Well, that's only 100 miles to the nearest store/city/hospital," that completely ignores how the stuff got there so you could pick it up.

Unless your lifestyle is such that you only have to buy or sell things a few times per year to survive, you're relying on that national/global infrastructure to enjoy your rugged, individualistic lifestyle.

The 11 is probably also wrong. Make a slide show with 13 slides. Remove one slide before 11. Update your static images, but miss the slide formerly known as 11/13, which should ben10/12.

Likely caused by a revision change in the slide show, one was taken out before slide 11, most of the slides were updated, but this one got missed.

You also have the right to smear shit on your face, but don't be surprised if no one wants to hang out with you.
