This is the first time I ever thought โ€œWow - that guy probably deserved to be a billionaireโ€

Picture of a 3 gang wall plate - two switch holes and a square plug hole - in ivory. This is a product listing from Ace hardware online - stating that 9 other people are viewing this product right now - with a little fire icon - obviously to imply that this is a hot item. I am buying it for a bathroom fixture that had to change recently. Talking about it on here is more fun than buying it is.

This feature on a website and product like this is not "act now before it sells out" but more like "you and 9 other sad humans are shopping online for mundane stuff". I hope they're having more fun than I am.

LOOK. I agree with you on lots of things. This is definitely NOT one of those things. I'm 100% in for the Baja Pie - and I've likely got to drive an hour to get to a Taco Bell that will have it...

โ€œItโ€™s indoctrination!โ€ they shout, while spending all day absorbing Twitter posts.

I was thinking the same. Iโ€™m 50 though - and my gifted kids are starting college and close to graduating high school. Not sure the discourse is worth it.

Well I can't help with that grief, but if you haven't watched Mr. Robot I'd say that might be one of the most interesting shows I've ever watched and you should check that next.

I thought it was pretty great. The music through the series was also fantastic.

Right? Not satisfied with being one of the greatest of all time - he also just took every cheating opportunity available. I don't get that mentality.

Too bad he doesn't have a cabinet job. This is beautiful.

Colts currently with most points in the early games while Dolphins are the only scoreless team. Just how we hoped this season would begin.

Imagine the next president renaming it to Department of Peace and how quickly congress would be involved.

Is it really possible that the Health care industry saw the pending Medicare/Medicaid cuts and hired 55k people during this span?

When numbers get revised down, do they revise these breakdowns as well?

And even the summary that guy shows is taking the current month +73k jobs at face value when the previous 2 monthly revisions were adjusted -129k per month. Can't REALLY apply that trend directly, but there's also no reason NOT to think this month could be revised to something like a -50k number.

Happy Gilmore 2 is a worthy sequel. Sure, Iโ€™m a Sandler fanboy, and mostly itโ€™s a guilty pleasure, but it was an entertaining return to a Happy Place. Iโ€™d watch it again.

Also @dilmerv.bsky.social you should see if they can be less dependent on other packages that aren't really required. I had to install the AI Navigation package due to a dependency there.

Capture from Visual Studio showing the code for this plugin - but changing the defines to be above the set of using statements.

HEY! This is just what I needed Dilmer. I'm trying it out today. Can you get the dev team to make sure to move the UNSUPPORTED defines up above the using blocks? PS5 builds fail without this change. I just made a local package copy for now so I'm not blocked, but this should be fixed.

These years will really suck - but that pendulum swing on the other side is going to be epic.

The affordable google cloud VMs all default to around 4Gb of RAM. It should pop up an error when you try to set a boot disk to any version of Windows without adjusting that. Imagine setting that up and trying to run Unity...

Watched the recently released Snow White. I had super low expectations based on overall reception, but it was far worse than I was prepared for. There is no live action Disney remake anywhere near as bad as this one. I honestly can't think of a worse remake. Unsure why this was made.

Recently watched the new How to Train Your Dragon. It's a great story because it matches the original animated version nearly beat for beat. The original animation is better in every way - though the new Toothless looks fantastic. Unsure why this was made.

Happy to have this trailer out there for the world to see what we've been working on! The tech we've put together here is going to make for a really cool VR experience.

To be fair, Meta does own this now and while there's income from the PSVR versions, there's surely more incentive to get people to come to the Meta ecosystem instead.

Are there official guidelines for setting up a Mario Kart society?

Maybe we need some missionaries to go door to door about this sort of thing.
