The Lula admin’s Bolsa Família giving R$600 to unemployed and retired people, a push for fully electrifying rural parts of Brasil that have lacked electricity, same with running water. This gave him a huge amount of support from northeast Brasil because it literally saved families from starvation having the extra money to buy food or cooking gas.

Bolsonaro opposed all of this because of course he did.

The funny thing is, IIRC the woman next to him in the picture is his wife

I’ve got one in my living room PC I use as a home theater PC and couch gaming system running Mint. It runs every game I’ve tried at 4K60 no problem. Definitely recommend as well. I think I paid $650~ at Microcenter for it.

Filthy Frank made a video about the “born in the wrong generation” part 11 years ago, fun to see that’s still an ongoing thing

.22 also comes in shotshells, tiny little versions of bird shot. I’ve used them on rattlesnakes when needed. We called it snake shot for that reason.

Not saying this is safe in this scenario, but better than a 12 or 20 gauge bird shot.

New Vegas and Fallout 3 remasters are confirmed, as well as Obsidian working on another Fallout with Bethesda oversight and Fallout 5 in pre production with production ramping up after Elder Scrolls 6 releases.

Patrolling the Mojave almost makes me wish for nuclear winter

Now they really have Nothing to offer that’s worth buying.

Sceptre makes dumb panels still, limited range of options but better than being spied on if you just need a replacement screen.

Literally just a DIY version of the MO-RA radiator from Watercool. I’ve seen people run these into their basements for silent and efficient cooling for fully water-cooled systems with great results.

I betcha this is the answer, they’re probably doing that as a deal with the telecom companies because WhatsApp what’s the market share and control, so that’s why they agree to it.

Plus in markets like Brazil, having unlimited use of WhatsApp services, including video calls, is a selling point for most cellular providers. You will have a data cap but could still video call your grandma on WhatsApp when you’re out of data. Every business has their WhatsApp number posted out front and on their websites/social media.

For example, here is Claro, a large Brazilian phone company’s cheapest current plan, 36GB of data but unlimited WhatsApp usage and 5GB for social media.

I found a great trick for this, when you get a spam call answer like so “Federal Bureau of Investigations, [Largest city near your area code] district office, how many I direct your call?”

The calls will stop very quickly. I haven’t gotten a spam call in over 2 years because of this.

What’re they gonna do, rat me out for impersonating a federal employee? “Hi I’m a scammer spoofing numbers and this person faked saying they’re a fed!” Get stuffed lol

Yes, but also that was because of Bungie. Halo Studios is an Xbox Games studio meaning what Microslop says goes, Bungie was able to push back against that and have more control. We didn’t have the contractor fiasco with H1, H2 and H3 like we did with Infinite, and no spaghetti code as a result. There was massive crunch, especially for 2, but they maintained control over the project and a much higher capacity. Devs stated many times it was always due to their own ambition being bigger than the time available, or even hardware limitations (Halo 2 E3 demo build).

They look like Beavis and Butt-Head characters to me, also we apparently had to recall several due to the wheels on specifically the right side of the truck falling off. Needless to say you’ll still see the on life support LLVs for a while

Firstly, please take your meds, your schizoposting is getting out of hand here.

Second, saying “Fucking join the democrats you fucking worthless pieces of fucking dog EXCRAMENT.” is a fantastic way to recruit to the party, it’ll definitely work.

Third, USPS delivers to nearly every zip code, there may be a few towns now that have lost a PO due to lease issues but almost every mailbox in the country is covered. It’s a much better coverage area than any other courier. Does UPS go down a 30 mile road to deliver to 1 house? No, they give it to us to deliver.

You’re getting way too worked up dude

Did they just not see the backlash and class actions filed against PayPal/Honey, CapitalOne, etc. for this same affiliate code swapping scheme and just decided they’d do it anyway? Surely they had to have seen that, or did they think it was a good idea done blatantly and are trying to be sneakier about it?

Fight Club (1999). If you don’t know the twist, don’t read anything about it, just watch it. I really like David Fincher’s films but this is definitely my favorite.

Honorable mentions: Poor Things (2023) Parasite (2019) Midsommer (2019) Requiem for a Dream (2000) Oldboy (2003)

Oh man I forgot about these, I had one as a kid and loved it. I had also found an old instrument cluster in my dad’s car parts horde and asked him if he could hook it up to the game and make it work. He was too polite to say it was a stupid idea, so he just said “sorry, bud, that’s a little outside my knowledge” but attached it to the top anyway so I could pretend.

Good times.

He secreted liquid already, didn’t you see the video?
