Thank your ancestors for that. Couldn't think up any new names on their way over so they resused a bunch.
We better adapt soon becuse the village is dead and it isn't coming back.
We all know this yet the ones with kids who need to do something about it don't, as a result kids are getting dumber by the year.
TV had a limited capacity to mess kids up and it largely didn't. Youtube and the internet on then other hand are in the vast majority of kids pockets with 0 restrictions.
Reading the first hand reports of what this looks like from /r/teachers will black pill you on the future quicker than any post on climate change or war.
Yeah storage is cheap but I last reformated my boot drive in 2017 so my root partition is 20GB and now I have no room for Flatpak. Now I could just resize it but wheres the fun in that.
TL:DR "A 20GB root partition ought to be enough for anybody."
It's an impressive FOSS project, scracthes the fast paced Quake itch but not a lot of people have that these days.
Shout out to the crew who played on the HOCTF server. Had well over a 1000 hours on there.
How can this be a legally enforceable contract?!
I'd like to think it can't be but it's the US so who knows.
Changing the terms after buying the device and in a way that your kid could accept them by hitting ok on the remote is bonkers.
Glad to be on this side of the great pond for the time being.
That time being 12 months.
If Trump does win, Europe can't count on America to respond properly to it's NATO promises. At best Trump will drag out processes that can't be drugout in order for NATO to remain effective. At worst he'll try and pullout entirely.
Keeping up Appearances meme out of left field 😂
I'm surprised there's enough overlap in fanbases for this to have 100+ votes but I'm here for it.
Wow that was a great read. Leif comes across as very perceptive on multiple fronts here.
Unfortunately I think his warning about the internet ending up like "souped up TV" is looking more likely by the day.
Right now it's quite easy to force a site or service to bend the knee to outside pressure. No matter how right or wrong that pressure is. People will go after hosting and ISPs, if that doesn't work they'll tie people up directly in the courts. You must provide real contact info and be willing to play ball if you operate on the old web.
Embracing encryption is the only thing I can think to do to avoid that. Which honestly kind of sucks, because while true anonymity would save sites like Omegle who act in good faith and police themsevles in a reasonable manner, others that don't will also be protected. I think the pros out weigh the cons with anonymity but that is a hard pill to swallow for many.
Kevin isn't as rare as you'd think in Europe especilally in the early 90s. Motorcycle racing AKA MotoGP was very popular and the champion in 1993 was Kevin Schwantz.
You also had the rise of Kevin Costner around then that probably contributed to it as well.

I just don’t know where you people get this confidence in the American people from.
Same. 2016 and covid were just a little taste of how low we can go. I don't doubt that it can get worse.
The holy trinity.
I need to move on from my LG (RIP) G6 soon due to battery life and apps becoming unsupported so I've been shopping around.
Right now I have a headphone jack, NFC, MicroSD, FM Radio and 4k video recording. I'll probably have to give up the radio at least if not more to get a well rounded phone.
The G6 came out 7 years ago but it feels like most new phones are a downgrade in comparsion.
