They’re all fascists? Because every time I’ve heard anyone talk about broken clocks in the last seven or eight years, they’re all fascist broken clocks.

fwiw, running photoshop through a VM would be pretty easy and pretty quick to setup with very little (if any) troubleshooting required, and it’s unlikely that updates would break stuff. I’ve done it many, many times.

The real problem is getting good performance out of it. Now, I don’t know OP’s specific needs or what specific Adobe apps he’s using. if it’s just Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign, he’s gonna be fine. if he’s got enough memory and he’s running the VM by itself, he shouldn’t notice much of any performance degradation until he’s got some gigantic files open in PS and/or he’s juggling a bunch of files between PS and Illustrator.

Now, if he’s trying to run AfterEffects or Premier, he could run into more serious performance issues and would definitely need to dual-boot if he wants to render anything. But he may not be using those apps.

Running those apps through Wine? THAT is the massive PitA that can take days to configure and troubleshoot and where an update can break anything— but it runs at native speed. Using a VM is pretty simple… just slower.

IIRC, Russia, at least, has had to participate under a neutral flag in recent games due to their ongoing doping scandals anyway. Other than Belarus also competing under a neutral flag, what would substantially change?

I can see Ghouliani being dumb enough to stay loyal. Turning on Trump now won’t save him, anyway. 

I tried jellyfin, but it just doesn’t do all of what I need it to do.

when you meme yourself, lol

many companies have multi-year commercial leases they suddenly can’t get out of and lots of office furniture they can’t liquidate. it’s a huge investment that suddenly worthless. (boo-hoo!)

far better than Shades of Grey

Ironically, not only were they able to sneak in The Cage (which never aired in Star Trek’s broadcast run), a really great episode in its own right, the rest of the story is a pretty awesome follow-up to the story with Captain Pike and uses some clever editing to accomplish its ending.

the whole “Playbook” is pretty great, bit this one is excellent for explaining exactly why conservatives see things the way they do

So what? It may be unsavory, but I don’t see how any of this is illegal. And I especially don’t see why they should be wasting taxpayer dollars on this huge circus of an investigation into something that’s not illegal. Hunter Biden is not an elected official, nor does he hold public office appointed, or otherwise. He’s a private citizen, and going after him is just a slimy way of attacking Joe Biden indirectly because the Republicans don’t have anything on him. 

The guy was in, like, six Darren Aronofsky films. He was a legend. 

what I’d like to know is, in 2023, why extra costs/charges for things like long-distance/international calling and roaming even exist anymore other than to gouge customers for the enrichment of greedy corporations?
