I don’t think that will fly even with this joke of a supreme court

I did not find it that difficult, but there was a lot of up front homework to make sure you had a compatible hardware configuration due to needing hardware which was supported by the limited number of Mac configurations. I recall running into a problem where I wasn’t getting a picture on my monitor and I could not figure out why since my video card was supported and the drivers were ok. The problem as it turned out? I had my monitor connected via DVI and macs had never supported DVI so there were no drivers. Once the install was done, it pretty much Just Worked. Linux installs are pretty easy these days but debugging problems can be very difficult. The hard part of the hackintosh was keeping up with upgrades, since they needed to be done manually (due to potentially breaking things).

I do think that bluesky has a ton of momentum right now and is a viable alternative. But the thing about microblogging sites is that if the specific people you want to follow aren’t on them, there’s not really a substitute. I know I’ve heard people say that, for example, a lot of japanese game developers are still primarily on twitter (I’ve never been a twitter/bsky enjoyer so I can’t speak to it personally).

Abandoned mine several years ago. Kind of a shame, they were a good option for a while for people who weren’t windows fans but didn’t want to run linux full time. Apple just doesn’t really have any offerings for people who want a desktop that’s upgradeable, but don’t want to drop the money on a Mac Pro.

“Link aggregator” is more appropriate than news aggregator.

As someone who frequently shops on their bike, lack of handles on paper bags can be the difference between me being able to bring things home or not. I can hang a plastic bag off of the handle bars or over my shoulder if I need to. A paper bag without handles is going to leave me pretty screwed if I don’t currently have panniers with me.

TBH I think they’re right. It has zero chance to result in removal. It has zero chance of passing either house of congress. It just ends up being an ineffective gesture. Save it for when you have some chance of actually changing something.

Shit who’s this vputin guy in our group chat?

It may very well be true that people hold contradictory views, either because different groups of people are being conflated into one, or because many people don’t examine their views very closely. But I don’t think this article makes the case strongly at all.

A) I don’t think this is a new phenomenon at all

B) I don’t think they’ve provided any evidence that single women quitting the dating market is because of this.

Also has there ever been a point in time where the majority of single people don’t think that dating sucks?

I’m pretty sure that actually doing this would violate their medical licensing, regardless of VA rules.

Alcohol is a social lubricant, if you’re a drinker then yes it’s pretty natural to assume a few drinks on a first date would loosen both parties up. Not everyone is a drinker and that’s fine but I don’t think it’s weird at all to want drinks on an occasion where people are probably a bit nervous and awkward. Re: driving, take an uber? The bus?

While the current regulatory environment is very…discouraging, it’s not impossible, particularly if individual states take action.

Yeah, predatory ads for gambling really drive me crazy. Although I’d say my reasoning for being against it is pretty different from the Baptists.

Really need regulatory action on this. People have no idea.

Hypocrisy has never stopped him before and the immunity he’s been granted is very broad.

And now he’s pissing off someone who has shown full willingness to weaponize the Justice department.

But I also brought up civil court for a reason. Trump doesn’t really have direct leverage there and the discovery process could be very interesting in a case like that. A victim involved in the Epstein case may very well have standing to bring a civil suit if Musk is making information that’s harmful to them public.

Right? Accessing non-public information related to legal proceedings could very well be breaking the law. This is the sort of thing that could be actionable, in criminal or civil court.

One wonders if musk actually has any special information about this, and if so, how he got said information.

First one I used? Either a ][e or ][gs at school. First one our household owned? A 286 (not any particular brand). First one that was “mine”? A mac LC2. First one i paid for with my own money? Uhhh I just remember it was a Dell, probably a pentium 4?
