Don't worry, they're only 5-9 mm big and are generally chill

For those wondering about what specifically happened with each:

Minecraft - microtransactions on Bedrock edition

Reddit - API changes killing 3rd party apps and streamlining ad delivery

Netflix - Pricing and library changes making it less and less of a good deal

Chrome - Manifest V3 killing uBlock Origin and similar content blockers

Windows - Increasing numbers of ads baked into the system, poorly-made features like Recall, and lack of hardware compatibility with the TPM 2.0 requirement

I found the OP and their post got deleted, but the only comments she responded to were the supportive ones (maybe 1 or 2 out of dozens of "wtf is wrong with you" reactions).

The poster has a history dating back 2 years so I don't think it's a troll, or if it is it's convincing. I just can't believe anyone would actually want to name their kid fucking Blessica. Absolutely revolting name.

For those saying they didn't know about this, it's because they never actually released anything. They got shut down unexpectedly before they finished any projects. Allegedly there are still some in-development games based on Netflix properties that will still be released on their gaming service, and the service itself will stay up. It's just the studio itself that was shut down.

Not really AAA at all, no.

Man I hate these fucking headlines. The race is insanely close and news headlines like this aren't helping that. It just helps reinforce Trump's narrative that media outlets are irrationally out to smear him.

I imagine it's to pad runtime.

KDE bricked my install on my main desktop after updating to the latest LTS too. No idea how that happens. I'm on opensuse leap now.

I think the other person was just pointing out that the current conflict between Israel and Palestine is a modern creation and is primarily caused by western imperialism and a failure to hold Israel accountable.

My brother in law does this. Gets so close that you can't see the rear tires of the car ahead, going 80+ mph. He's been in multiple wrecks, including one where he totaled his custom BMW and almost died. He blamed the other driver (somewhat reasonably, they were drunk, but he was driving like a psycho), and refuses to change any of his driving habits.

He also used to street race in Florida, with his family in the car. No, they did not consent to it, they're just too scared of him to say anything.

 
 

I'm procrastinating at work and installing random packages with CLI that are just fun to mess with. Recently I've been looking up all my co-workers with Sherlock, just for fun. Does anyone else have CLI stuff that they like to screw with when they're bored?

 

I took this at Muskallonge State Park in Michigan. It's the only place within a few hundred miles of my house that's Bortle class 1, meaning zero light pollution. It was fantastic and I absolutely want to go back sometime.

 

Thinking about this because of a greentext I saw earlier complaining about OF models.

It feels like a lot of the stigma surrounding sex work in the modern day (that doesn't just boil down to misogyny/gender norms/religion) is based on the fact that selling intimate aspects of one's self places a set value on something that many see as sacred; something that shouldn't have monetary value.

Not to say anything about the economic validity of a society without currency, but I think that, hypothetically, if that were to exist, sex work would be less stigmatized since this would no longer be a factor. Those engaged in sex work would be more likely to be seen as doing it because it's something they are good at/enjoy, and less because it's an "easy" way to make money, as some think. It would also eliminate the fear of placing set value on social, non sex-work related intimacy (not that those fears were well-founded to begin with).

 

Found this in the middle of nowhere in Kentucky on a road trip.
