I just stopped watering mine. I also live in an area where grass dies quickly without copious irrigation, which should have been the first clue to the previous homeowners to maybe not grow grass.

Staying busy and avoiding news. It’s highly likely that it won’t be decisive, and we don’t need to feed the relentless hysterical coverage machine of media corporations.

As an outside observer, it seems perfectly clear that he has no intent to see any more hostages returned alive.

XKCD

You can wishlist it on Steam! The developer says he has been playtesting it on the Deck, too.

I don’t know about apps, but they ultimately all get it from the National Weather Service. Since it’s a government service, the website is totally free of ads and other garbage. Just use that. Weather.gov. You can search for your home, and since it uses absolute URLs, you can then bookmark the results page and just go straight to that every time.

Project 2025 wants to disband NOAA and give its functions to Accuweather instead, directing taxpayer funding to a private company while also locking all weather data behind a paywall, so they get paid twice to provide the same info NOAA currently provides with a single payment (taxpayer funding). The Accuweather founder, Joel Myers, and his brother, Billy Lee Myers (unsuccessfully nominated by Trump to be the head of NOAA), are major Republican donors, but I’m sure that is completely coincidental.

I guess it really got under Steve Hoffman’s skin.

“Zaslav’ing” lol

Nothing obvious; no game breaking bugs or unplayability. Just too little, too late. If it came out 5 years ago, it would have a chance, but that space is too crowded now with F2P offerings to tolerate a bland entry with high upfront cost. It sounds like they’ll retool it into F2P, hopefully add something unique, and relaunch.

Seriously, I just finished my annual “preventing harassment’ training and there’s a whole section on power differential and how just asking puts employees in a bad spot. Just…don’t.

I don’t feel that one’s even halfway earned. I don’t hate my fellow man, not even when he’s tiresome, surly, and tries to cheat at poker. I figure that’s just the human material, and he that finds in it cause for anger or dismay is a fool for expecting better.

Definitely.

I believe the correct response is “go fuck yourself.”

Yeah, I thought they were protesting the skeptics.

They see the post-PC world, and Windows Phone never panned out.

First thing I thought of when I saw this post.

I have several password manager plugins installed on my browser, along with the built-in password managers in the browser and the OS itself, because I like seeing them all fight over the password field.

But they had a strict lockout policy, right? Right?

Seems to me the undercover agent made an extremely poor choice in links to send. If you expect to track down whoever clicked it, a link to a private video would be the obvious choice.
