An updated version of the ritual is coming soon!

It may be better these days, but when it was needed most, it wasn't as mature.

Smack Mt Bitxh Up by the prodigy was way ahead of its time here.

Nevermind the walled garden problem. We've got potentially great content locked behind different storefronts requiring different hardware for each.

In the quest for dominance, everyone is losing.

Like, I understand Valve's "no exclusive content" stance, but they really should consider pumping publishing money into vr software studios, but with an open platform clause. A healthy ecosystem of software will enable VR to thrive. Either that or engage in negotiations with the other players to create a VR collective agreement. It'll never happen, but one can dream.

This dude looks like Gritty. And that's an insult to Gritty.

On April 20, 1871, President Ulysses S. Grant signed one of the most important civil rights laws in U.S. history: the Ku Klux Klan Act. Section 1 of that law – known today as 42 U.S.C. § 1983 – empowers individuals to sue state and local government officials who violate their federal constitutional rights. The law was aimed at protecting Black Americans from white supremacist violence and murder in the postbellum South.

Section 1983 was invoked by the plaintiffs in Brown v. Board of Education (you can see the Act cited by its date) when they challenged school segregation 70 years ago. ACLU offices nationwide continue to use Section 1983 today to defend and advance the rights of all people.

There as a brief period in the early 00's where this kind of browser game was prevalent. I can't remember the names, but same concept. They were perfect for lunch period, issue commands, and hope you made the right choices when you logged in the next day.

A side note, with the announcement of the raspberry pi 5, there's a lot of chatter about how the pi boards are big contributors to boinc.

Fossil has an eink hybrid now icymi
