That’s the part that people don’t get and is intentionally hard to find numbers on. The entire appeal was on it not being an influencer centric space. The entire value was always at odds with monetizing that value beyond it’s upkeep and paying the people (who apparently aren’t that many) a reasonable salary. It is the worst growth case you could have ever had.
Yeah like… Netflix has peering agreements and whatnot but… It’s not 2005.
Yeah agree. They’re kind of sold as a cure all, which they’re not, but if you have a very specific problem they’ll help. I think the thing is a lot of times people use them without addressing the root cause. But it’s definitely saved me a deep clean before.
All I know is I appreciate their slow roll. Everytime they break something I replace it with the non-Google option. I’ve got a small nuc as my main HTPC tied into my plex. Been waiting for an excuse to swap my first Gen Google hockey Puck from like 2012 in my bedroom.
Lol, a bit late but a certain degree yes. Like as a libertarian Ill never be able to square taking money from someone’s paycheck in NYC for subsidizing internet in Montana.
But… No one actually cares about that… Eve libertarians, because it’s peanuts next to a shitty new f-30whatever that will ever fly.
It’s by no mean perfect, and has been massively corrupted by whatever the hell we have going on right now in the US. But the principle of “if it doesn’t affect anyone, stop talking to me” is a good one, and at least it’s a stated one.
So yeah, I do kinda think people should have the right NOT to make cakes for gay weddings. Sure. Do I care when they’re forced to? Ehhhhh. You were going to be out of business soon because you’re a godamn asshole sooooo not really no I don’t care lol.
So no, the gov should subsidize wifi, but they also already subsidize all sorts of shit, so youre damn right you have to service those folks. I guess that’s the thing, libertarianism neccesaties egalitarianism, and nothing else does.
I’m a sane libertarian (I promise some of us do exisit). People absolutely have a right to determine what goes in to their body, but fluoride is such a weird hill to die on. In particular when fortified grains are a mandate of the same ilk. All of this has a history, and shocker, it was always steeped in the same “but our culture” wrapping…
Edit: tl;Dr if you don’t want to watch the video: and pellagra was proven to be one of those diseases that is zero problem… So long as your diet doesn’t suck. The science had push back because it upset the economics. We’re fighting the same battles now we were then.
Edit2: yes. I’m a libertarian, because as much as they’re freaking nuts it still stems from a disagreement of a stated principle. A principle which had them back a ton of LGBTQ rights before anyone else. I’m voting Biden in 2024, strictly because I’d like to vote in 2028, but godamn this is how 2016 happened.

Lol seriously. The tone was what I thought they absolutely nailed. There’s tons of examples but the easiest is how genuinely badass that power armor intro is, and then also “fuck fuck fuck fuck”. Fallout was always like that lol.
Agreed entirely. I live my SC and describe it as “for people who could get away with an SUV or hatchback but need a bed”. Like I get to have more of a car (albeit big for a car) but the messy stuff doesn’t get in the cab.
My bet is on Ford doing a mav EV before Hyundai does a SC EV though. Just glad to see more tiny trucks out there.
Basic human rights are not subject to pragmatism. She wound up where she needed to be.
She openly opposed gay marriage as a NYS senator. Her career has been over long before 2016.
It wouldn’t have. That’s when I knew we were screwed.
this thread is making me realize I’m clearly missing something. How do people actually use discord? Me and my friends basically use it as semi-permanent group chat. A few different topic areas, and no stupid android/ios compatibility issues. I’m also in two servers for some small clubs. Do people really use it the way they would lemmy/reddit?
That makes sense, I’d hope title insurance folks are easy to work with because that has to be one of those fields where like 99% of people never have a claim against it… at least a hope so lol.
Thats insane. And at that point they were there for 7 years. Most people stay in there house longer, but any million things could have made them want to move in that window. Sick family member, job, whatever, and they would have been stuck.
This crap happens (not that at it should and you’re correct). I know someone in construction. They leaned a property that the title company just… didn’t see the lien? Property was sold, The lien wasn’t bonded off or anything either.
It got resolved but man, that would have been a mess. I think at that point the new homeowner is on the hook, and would need to get their due by going after the title company?
Ruff. “Can he be ruff on crime”. It was right there!
Prey (2017) is an awesome FPS/immersive Sim. As in, it plays like a shooter but how you take each engagement is highly up to you. You can go in guns blazing, there’s usually some way to use the environment, go out of your way to get robot helpers, mind control one of the enemy, sneak past entirely. It’s one of my all time faves because it has depth but draws you in like an fps. I love stuff like obra din but don’t always have the energy to get lost in them.
And the plot is awesome. Not a ton of replay ability (imo, but I’m difficult there) but definitely a meaty amount of time. highly recommend headphones.
Haven’t run it on the deck but a quick search shows people are really happy with it’s performance there.
ABS/pumping the brakes is implemented because sliding friction is less that static friction. It’s why you can nudge something on a slope to start sliding and it doesn’t stop but would have happily sat there before hand.
Your car wheels experience static friction because while in motion the patch in contact with the road isn’t moving. Or at least they do until you skid.
So ABS brakes/releases to get a new round of static friction.
Pumping the brakes is probably a phrase that came from before power assisted brakes (when you were manually pressurizing the hydraulics) but still had relevance because it was also ABS.
Climate change and the housing crisis means both the cost of replacing a home AND the likelihood of needing to is going up. They may not be on the brink of going under, but may be trying to avoid getting into that position.
It is an enormous problem. When a property becomes un-insurable it loses value. When that happens to a TON of property it’ll have massive knock ons. Something like 1/3rd of all assets in the US are commercial realestate. This next adjustment will not be pretty, and the real irony is a ton of people who got priced out of home ownership in the first place are going to suffer no matter what.
