Reddit might be leaking today.
LOL but they'll tear up the city for a stadium.

Some might even say these are natural rights.

Any used Akai device. Depending on how old I would say get them the new standalone device called the mpc one+. If the price is too steep look for a used midi device from Akai.

Honesty, a used cell phone would make a better pocket operator.

Yea, this one had wrong and broken info all over it.
To me it seems like it's impossible because they can't reorder bing search results or mixed them with other results. Or by their own admission because Google doesn't have a search API anymore. Unless I'm misreading. It's basically "Bing or Google wont allow us to use their products how we want to." And "It will take us over 20 years and lots of money to gain market share."

I'm paraphrasing here of course. But it doesn't seem impossible. I mean I don't think it's easy either. I also want to add that I don't want to live in a world with only one search engine.

Can't stop calling it out when you see it. The internet is being used for good and for evil. <tinfoilhatoff>
I knew there had to be a rational explanation as to why this book was chosen as a "bad book'.
Nice. This reminds me of ammoseek.

Nice.
Is this spam?

Anyone else on the fan Facebook group? Ceralkiller is on there.
My first journey into flash was creating a graphic of a spinning smiley face with a GSW for the game pimp-wars. I didn't know anything about it. But I knew I wanted to make that graphic for my "gang".

A randomize button would be cool.
How much it sucks depends on why you bought it. if you bought it to control a pointer, NBD. If you got it for the custom buttons, then it's a pretty big deal. Why those features need a server online to work is beyond me. Glad they got a fix though.
Not sure how this was even allowed. I saw a couple of people jump into the back of a Uber that was a Tesla, and could only wonder if the driver told them where the release was in case of emergency.
I honestly don't want to make this political and I'm not a libertarian. But this reminds me of something a libertarian once said. That courts would find companies liable for their crimes and someone would go to jail.

My question: Why isn't someone going to jail, when they have clearly broken a law?

This is awesome! I used to have sega channel as a kid. I never had a game console and a Sega is the only one my mom ever bought us. We were fortunate enough to have cable TV from TCI cable and they had Sega channel. Every month we'd get new games and eventually they changed it to 2 weeks.

Yes, rotated to landscape to workaround it.
I realized this morning, while talking to a coworker. That when we are in person we complain about shit more than we fix it. But when were remote we voice our concerns in the major channels and shit gets fixed.

I'm convinced by keeping people in person less shit will get fixed.

The only way to win is to not play.

I have the high pitched noise with the 2nd gen pros when I sleep on my side. It's not just an issue with the 3's.

It begs the question from a noob like me... Where should they host the status page? Surely it shouldn't be on the same infra that it's supposed to be monitoring. Am I correct in thinking that?
PBS doesn't do any talking points. It's honestly just news and if they have a talking head on, they usually have an opposing talking head. Its a breath of fresh air to just get the actual news.
Metrovac makes an electric plugin duster that is the bees knees. Never have to buy a can of air again. It's powerful too. Powerful enough that you feel what little torque the motor has when it powers on.

This is the model. https://www.webstaurantstore.com/metrovac-ed-500-datavac-ele...

I'm pretty sure I do this on my mac using Aerials. Is your way different from this?

It's only confusing if one is ignorant about pronouns. It's not hard in practice.

Person 1: Where is emy?

Person 2: Oh she, is over there. Points

Person 3: hey person 1, emy doesn't refer to herself as she..

Person 2: oh I'm sorry. I had no idea about Emy and their pronouns...Hey person 1, Emy is right over there.

I find it easier if you refer to people by their names (preferred or otherwise) and just default to gender neutral terms like "they/them". Because it not a hard thing to do.

I used to care about stuff like this. But then I stopped and life has been great!
I have never been asked by a bank, credit union, or investment broker if I am conservative. Can a conservative explain to me What the hell is the issue?
