Congrats! I did a poor job managing finances in my 20s so it wasn’t until last year that I reach my first unclaimed $10k in savings. So don’t be embarrassed, you’re ahead of a significant number of your own age group.

The older I get, the less time passes between starting a new project and reading the readme / manpages for a library.

Since we would be inside the frame of reference, I don’t think we would know it was happening, like imagine you’re inside a tube that is knotted. You’d go through the tube like a slide at the water park, no way to see that it’s a knot, even if we can detect the turning and tumbling, there’s little we can reference from inside to determine it’s crossing around itself.

It doesn’t matter how bullshit or not it was, it matters that people voted for it.

They’re referring to the literal campaign strategy / platform he ran on which includes such fascist rhetoric as deporting 20m immigrants (when there’s at most 13-15m by most estimates, every single one of which helps the economy and is not a burden in any way) and “it’s the last election you’ll need to vote in”, as just a sample. Oh and don’t forget “I’ll only be dictator for one day” as a bonus, a treat. That’s what people mean when they say democracy is dead.

I don’t want to blame Harris either, she seemed to do the best that she was given but it always was long odds given that she’s a Half-Indian Half-Black Woman. (Racism from Whites, Racism from Indians for being a race-traitor, and then sexism from everyone including minorities).

This is bullshit rhetoric. She ran a shit campaign of trying to appease republican voters and cater to the snowflake right wing fear machine by shushing Palestine voices to back genocide directly and trying to sound tougher on immigration and border policy in the face of literal fascist policy campaigns by Trump. This is 100% the fault and failure of the Harris campaign’s strategy and the DNC for being so chicken shit scared of losing that they kept the corpse in chief in the running for too long. Catering to the fascist right policies never works and ignoring insanely popular progressive policy always fails. The beatings will continue until morale improves.

If you don’t need to host but can run locally, GPT4ALL is nice, has several models to download and plug and play with different purposes and descriptions, and doesn’t require a GPU.

Huh, I’ve only heard business logic before.

Quarterly is very common. It’s absurd.

Throwing BPS.Space on here, more rockets fun and genuinely good engineering fail and fail again until you succeed rocket madness.

I’m glad the union has a majority in agreement on this step. But Boeing is going to regret not having any long-term skill retention when they all leave for greener pastures because there’s no incentive to stay.

Did you try stripping out everything in the launch options except ‘–skip-launcher’? I tried your command and it didn’t launch but then tried just the skip option and it worked again.

Skip the useless launcher. Set the steam shortcut to run the game exe directly, it doesn’t need anything special, been playing it fine on Debian and arch with both nvidia and amd gpus as well as my steam deck.

Technically, an ATI Radeon 9800 as that was my first custom built computer in 2003. However, the ATI Rage IIc was the gpu inside my first desktop computer, an iMac G3 in 1998. But the first one I used was the VGC 12-bpp palette graphics of the Apple IIgs, where I was first introduced to computer games and upgrading the accelerator cards and memory to play new games with more demanding requirements in 1994.

Please buy it used.

Another case of Left Handed liberation.

Edit: It seems my half-jest comment wasn’t well-received, haha. To clarify further, the percentage of left-handed individuals worldwide has remained relatively stable at around 12% for decades. However, it wasn’t always this way, and it wasn’t that long ago either, if you examine graphs showing the population of left-handed people over time. This isn’t because the frequency of left-handedness has increased; rather, it’s because our data collection and reporting on this aspect has improved significantly. As culturally left-handed individuals have stopped being persecuted for various archaic reasons, primarily religious ones, our understanding of left-handedness has also improved. Consequently, it’s not surprising that the number of individuals with autism (or any other condition) is “increasing” as we continue to refine and better understand the characteristics associated with autism. There’s lots more factors here, similar to the spike and subsequent decrease of lead-related afflictions as the world successfully moved away from leaded gasoline.

You just need a little Tenacity.

It’s just about playing the character as the persons’ own gender identity. Most common, of course, being video game characters as opposite genders. So like, lady master chief or what if zelda was a man, etc. But I’ve seen an androgynous/enby kratos that was super well done! Gender-bent / gender-bending is just the term that has stuck for that.

Well he did already have a run at it. Maybe we are getting lucky and he might lose, go away, and just be a skidmark on history instead of a complete shit pants situation. I’m choosing to believe the time travelers who stopped the assassination attempts from succeeding are just making sure we have skid marks instead of shit pants.
