In hindsight, upgrading from windows 10 to 11 was more annoying lmao

I personally expected it to be frustrating but tbh switching to Linux was just like every other device / OS change. Some frustration but mostly stuff you're familiar with

Michael Brooks would have turned 42 today. Here he is flawlessly explaining why the Israel Palestine situation is not complicated. Why it's not even asymmetrical warfare, but an occupation.

Rest in peace Michael. You were the best of us.

Pissgelb ist die Farbe des Liberalismus

Fascism is here. We are not “getting closer” or “in danger of.”

This matters because it frames our discussion: We aren’t trying to prevent it, we’re trying to defeat it. It’s not taking over our institutions, it’s taken them over.

Otherwise, we’re always behind, fighting a past we’ve already lost.

i will die on the hill that the original Nazis were just as silly as our modern versions. Hitler based his plans for the invasion of Russia partly on cowboy novels written by a con-man.

Staying up late to watch the game changer season finale was worth it, great episode!

1904 lehnten sich die Gruppen der Herero und Nama gegen die Kolonialherrschaft in Deutsch-Südwestafrika, dem heutigen #Namibia, auf. Am 11. August stellten deutsche Truppen die Einheimischen am Waterberg – die Herero sprechen von der Schlacht von Ohamakari.

Excerpt from the Wikipedia article on platform screen doors, of the Mainland China section: All metro systems in China have platform screen doors installed on most of their lines. All stations built after the mid-2000s have some form of platform barrier.

From the section on Germany: People movers at Frankfurt International Airport, Munich International Airport and Düsseldorf Airport are equipped with platform screen doors, as well as the suspended monorail in Dortmund, called H-Bahn. Plans are underway to test platform screen doors on the Munich U-Bahn in 2023 and line U5 & U6 will be installed in late 2026.

They're dunking on us, folks

conservative voters are better at politics than liberal voters because they just vote for what they want and don't try to act smart about it. i don't recall much "nooo you can't undermine the tories by switching to UKIP" they just did it & got given exactly what they wanted for it

Once you add some rerolls or flat modifiers (+1 means a 19 counts), it should get more feasible.

You could take some inspiration from "never stop blowing up", which didn't use dice pools but was still all about consistently hitting max numbers.

look, it doesn't matter if the night-night man isn't real. a number of voters have very real concerns that the night-night man is waiting under their beds ready to eat them as soon as mommy and daddy say night-night and you need to have a plan to address those concerns regardless

I'm not really sure what the "lol look how AI gets this wrong!!!" screenshots are meant to prove. Because I appreciate this is a subtle distinction, but they're not getting things wrong or right or anything else. That literally isn't a function of the technology, and it's *that* that's dangerous.

I am bleeding, making me the victor!

in "The Moisture Farm", we'll finally get to see what Luke Skywalker's family was doing in the years between when Anakin left and Luke arrived. thrill at the daily grind to meet Hutt taxes and maintain functional agricultural infrastructure!

Also I really wanted to like ex machina this time around but it's so damn hollow

Rewatched "Ex Machina" and "Her" with a friend last week, we paused a bunch to discuss and analyze both movies. It was a lot more fun than I would have expected!
