Idiocracy was just idiots, not an actively malicious group.

Martok learned that lesson the hard way.

Noita.

They really are trying to make the Bell riots happen…

A Fraser Institute op-ed has to be taken with a grain of salt the size of the Canadian shield.

They are already here and they want theirs.

This is it. They’re trying to pull the ladder up behind themselves. “I got mine, fuck you.” They don’t realize that as far as the racists are concerned, they’re in the “get fucked” demographic.

Bit of a curveball, but for remote work have you considered Barbados?

I’ll make one exception for audio messages: the other person being in a situation where they cannot easily type the message, but it’s not an emergency. Hands full, driving, inclement weather, etc. I take it as an implicit “this message is important, but not drop-everything-else critical.”

ARPG: Path of Exile, Last Epoch, Grim Dawn.

Also consider the survivors/bullet hell kinds of games: Vampire Survivors, Soulstone Survivors, etc.

Doesn’t matter to the D-Link bean counters. Either case is a non-sale to them. Never mind that they tank whatever is left of their already terrible reputation, all they care about is immediate shareholder revenue generation, and spending money maintaining software for older hardware is a loss to them.

The graph is optimistic. If Argentina is any indication, the final result is the country stuck in the mud, spinning its wheels on “the previous government failed us because it was not far right enough! I, your populist savior, will fix that by dismantling any institutions that are left!”

You get the snoot AND the boots? I call that an absolute win!

I think we found the new host of RFK’s brain worms.

Except that they stated multiple times, publicly, that the winners are picked randomly. So if they are not running a lottery then they have defrauded the participants.

My first reaction when reading “jam resistant” was “what, like raspberry?” I think I’ve watched Spaceballs one too many times.

I’ve interviewed a candidate that created dozens of GH projects, each one just being a list of tools for various topics. So they’d have “Programming tools”, “Security”, “Databases”, etc. They may have thought that on the surface it would show them as a well-rounded candidate, but if you dug into it, it was just that - a set of lists. Even AI generated slop that gets churned out by the dozens these days has more content than those projects did. Even worse, when asked about their experience with the tools, the candidate couldn’t give a useful response. It was like asking about the Donner Party and getting an answer about birthday parties.

Glassdoor is not reliable. Companies can pay to suppress negative comments.

Are there trusted impartial review sites?

They exist, but are very few - their articles get stolen by unscrupulous copycats, or the AI slop buries them in noise. It’s like panning for gold, but instead of a bubbling creek it’s sewage runoff. I hardly ever find trustworthy results on the first page any more, you got to go several pages deep until you stop seeing the “Top N <search term> you absolutely need to buy!” results.

I have my SD docked into a 4k monitor most of the time, and I can tell you with certainty that some games will struggle at 4k on the SD. You can still use the 4k monitor for them, just play at a lower resolution.
