  1. Why would anyone have to sign up to Truth Social to see what he's posted? Wouldn't a single bot reposting it elsewhere do the job?

  2. I'm pretty sure Musk is on board to hand him back the POTUS Twitter handle and say any censorship or moderation would be unconstitutional and unpatriotic. Regardless of the result, probably. He will not care if Truth Social tanks if he's got that.

Large margin for Harris: "this is absurd, we should have won, look how much they cheated"

Small margin for Harris: "They cheated, we need to send electoral votes for Trump anyway. Stop the steal!"

Small margin victory for Trump: "we won even though they cheated! Big changes coming to prevent their cheating in future"

Huge victory for Trump: "we have a mandate to eradicate the wetbacks"

I don't think the meme should be exclusively about building/fixing PCs though. Half the young people starting in our business show the same ineptitude as my parents when tasks with clicking stuff.

That would have been a great article to post here a year ago

Much better. Please do stick to the pictogram communication, saves everyone time.

Well given that I'm neither American nor particularly aligned to Washington Post (I had to Google "wapo") or the New York Times, it wasn't a particularly interesting question. Having lived by the South China Sea however... yeah it's probably more pertinent to my interests what Yogibear posts about that.

Did you forget your image macro?

False. Just circle some random spot on the picture and send it back with "normally i would ignore this but you should get that checked by a dermatologist btw".

I mean they fucking advertised it as such when I bought it

"Fahrenheit is how people feel" only makes sense if said people have never used another scale. You know how 100F "feels" because that's what you use. If you used Celsius you'd know how that scale feels instead, and be used to using the more useful scale generally.

I love the sentiment, but also, then choosing famously the first untethered spacewalk for the photo. Why even put tethered in there.

Has anyone got something more productive for me to overthink please

Would it mean that a malicious application being run in non-admin mode by one user could see data/memory in use by an admin user?

If you're using Steam (or any kind of shortcut I suppose), add --skip-launcher to the launch options. Here's how to do so with Steam:

  • Right-click the game in your library and select Properties.
  • Look for the Launch Options field at the bottom of the General tab.
  • Add "--skip-launcher" and close the properties window.
  • Launch the game as normal.
