I fundamentally don’t understand why innocent photos of you as a child are a bad thing.

Former researcher here: It’s trivial to select for sex in embryos.

I mean, just looking at him he’s in his 40s? Doesn’t federal time have very little time reduction for good behavior, so he’ll be close to 70? He may just die behind bars lol.

I never use Ookla for this reason. I use the Google speed test here in the states.

The situation here is very, very unique. The state is a swing state that has been trending slowly Democratic. When the AZ Supreme Court ruling came out, Democrats began salivating at the thought of a gigantic turnout for the pro abortion ballot initiative. Any smart GOP politician in the state began to shit their pants because abortion rights ballot initiatives could surge the Democratic turnout in all the state political races and could turn AZ dark blue based on this one single issue. The writing is on the wall though… AZ will be a blue state, but it’s not going to happen quickly as long as the GOP doesn’t piss off the state with unpopular policies.

I was generally considering getting a model Y, but learned that they can’t be exported overseas and still don’t have CarPlay and Android auto. Not to mention that it’s seemingly impossible to get an insurance quote without buying the car first??? Sorry, I’m going with another company.

So this SOC benchmarks on par with AMD’s best integrated GPU? On par with the M3, but not the M3 Pro/Max. If I’m going to switch to Windows, I’m not going to buy a less powerful PC that’s less capable than an AMD unit with a discreet GPU lmao. Call me when these are on par with 4080/4090 lol.

just be prepared that the “default” YouTube recommendations are all clickbait + Mr. Beast + whatever fad is going around. The default recommendations are really really bad.

Affinity Photo is also really really good. I’d imagine it’s high profile and will have good support in wine.

I switched to Bitwarden after 1Password moved to electron and booted selfhosters off the app and into their sub model. Jesus Christ is the current Bitwarden UI bad. It’s easily the worst looking application on my phone that isn’t a banking app; I’ve had zero issues with the functionality though.

All the more reason to put your windows personal folder and /home folders on a separate partition. Windows IIRC doesn’t enforce you storing applications in a particular location, so just make your OS install small (you can resize it later).

I do a job where my hands are potentially full and I cannot touch my phone for extended periods of time. I use the assistant for as much as it will let me…

I’ll have a joint for you this afternoon 😌 congrats from Sonora

here in the US in my situation it boils down to my parents/grandparents not being able to understand the difference between any texting application. I’m fine using SMS/iMessage because I know everyone has it. I’d say the vast majority of non-technologically savvy people I know are incapable or unsure how to use the basic functions of their phone (very few people I know in this category use their phone for anything else but calls, texts, and the web browser; everything else is just unused for either lack of understanding or lack of interest).

on T-Mobile USA: I preordered my iPhone 15; the QR eSIM and automated SIM transfer system was completely down and I had to spend 30 minutes to an hour on the phone with customer service to swap over my physical SIM to an eSIM I could type (IIRC) into my new phone.

It really confuses me why people would want to play a competitive video game that is balanced around profit. Riot openly admits to buffing and nerfing based on skin sales and champion releases.

They’ve been doing this here in southern AZ since I became a member like 5 years ago lol

From Tucson here: Walmart in town is pretty sketchy compared to the other places. We had someone light the chemical isle on fire on Christmas Eve that burnt down half the entire store lmao. Walmart sold itself as a low price retailer for so long that only low income people go there and with that there’s theft and then the classism of hiring armed guards during their high crime periods.
