This highlights really well the importance of competition. Lack of competition results in complacency and stagnation.
It's also why I'm incredibly worried about AMD giving up on enthusiast graphics. I have very few hopes in Intel ARC.
The order of the person ahead of me was still on screen when I pulled up to order. I took the picture in a bit of a hurry cause I didn't know when the screen was gonna reset.
Jfc, having the girl in the room at all is a liability, let alone letting her touch the patient.
I hope this guy's malpractice lawyer has good heart meds.
As a guy who's trying dating again, there's something that keeps coming up that kinda bugs me: talking to women who just put in the bare minimum of effort, expect me to carry the conversation and make all the first moves.
I don't give two shits about traditional gender roles and I'm all about subverting them. However, I think if you're in the same boat but still wanna call yourself a "passenger princess" and expect the guy to do everything, you're kind of a hypocrite.
The only reason we know the right answers are because people like this weren't afraid to try new things and find out what doesn't work.
If you're gonna dunk on the man, do it because he was a Confederate.
No validation, in the driver or the updater software.
No validation or automated testing on publish.
No staged rollouts.
Just utterly irresponsible all around.
Not once have I encountered a trans person on a dating app who wasn't 100% transparent about it. Some even asked me after matching, "you're aware that I'm trans, right?" just to be sure.
There's no logical reason to falsely pretend to be cis on a dating app to get matches. If someone's cool about it then it's better to know up front, right? And if they're not, then you probably don't want to waste your time on them.
The "justification" for this app is just bigotry, plain and simple. Fuck TERFs.

This article is a surprisingly entertaining read for a few reasons:
[citation needed] that I doubt will ever be resolved
You can apply this same logic to basically all of chemistry:
H: explosive, the main ingredient in stars
O: literally the reason fire is a thing, causes rust and kills cells via free radicals
H2O: I'm so wet, UwU
My friends and I still use TS3. The audio quality and voice activation is better than Discord's, and the desktop app doesn't take ten fucking gigabytes of RAM to run.
Being exposed to queer culture doesn't turn you gay, it just tells you that it's an option. That's why conservatives see it as so dangerous.
The children yearn for the mines.
Worst part is, now you can't find a dumb TV anymore. The closest thing out there are "commercial signage displays" which are just dumb TVs with limited inputs and usually without remotes, but 25-50% more expensive because "commercial" (and because they won't be able to continue making money by showing you ads and selling your data) and a lot of retailers won't let you order one without a business account, or force you to order in bulk.
And every Neanderthal I complain to is like "but smart TVs have so many more features," like, bro, I can make any TV the smartest fucking TV in the world by plugging it into the desktop PC I'm gonna keep right next to it anyway. All the "smart" bullshit just gets in the way. I've yet to encounter a smart TV UI that didn't require a dozen button presses to change inputs and spend two seconds or more re-drawing the UI with EVERY INPUT because they put the cheapest processors they can find in these pieces of shit.
This meme has become a running joke in my friend group: https://lemmy.world/post/7405623
We were fucking around with the Meta AI in WhatsApp and I got it to say this
Oh yeah, that crab could definitely get it
