Did the squirrel make it out OK?

There are several things I was doing in X-Org that I really don't have the capacity to figure out in Wayland. One of them was customizing touch pad shortcuts, I used to like having 3 figure swipe commands that worked like keyboard shortcuts. The other was my KVM programs like Barrier seems unable to work in Wayland.

I hope for simple solutions to these problems in the future.

This was honestly my last straw with AEW. I had felt for awhile that the variety early AEW had (Young Bucks indie, Lucha bros Lucha Libre, Omega DDT/NJPW influence, Mox's hardcore, Jericho/Cody's WWE influence) was done with a single unified vision, with everyone putting ego's aside to make something bigger then the sum of it's parts. An AEW roster that was so respectful that Brodie Lee's illness was never leaked to the press.

I honestly can't say that the reactionary AEW has me gripped like the early AEW that was interested in long form storytelling. And one with a roster so divided you can feel dissension within the roster. I don't want backstage drama to be the basis of ongoing storytelling, that's not an interesting story. I want to see the show working like a well oiled machine. It honestly makes me uncomfortable watching AEW as it is currently.

I thought AEW purpose was to change the wrestling industry not succumb to it.

It is misleading. It is 30% of the entire revenue of the game. And it is objective whether Valve deserves 30% of that revenue. It's also true that games aren't locked to the Steam platform and can absolutely make money outside of Valve's influence. History has shown though that it is less profitable then being inside the Steam ecosystem.

The efficiency is doing it so effectively that on an open platform competitors can create there own store, pay for AAA games to appear on their store, take the smallest of pay cuts, pass it on to the consumer, and still have customers prefer to pay more to be in the Steam ecosystem. I'm against monopolies but Valve's is absolutely efficient.

That has always been up in the air, certain functions of the building and it's link to the building has been designated a secret. It's not like the building itself is inconspicuous though.

Looks like it been fixed up with a bit of trickery It's a shame as it didn't leave in that state it's just the journey wasn't particularly kind to it.

Hasn't this been a bit of a running trend now? I'm sure I'm having Déjà vu from it.

I do want to read articles that change my beliefs and I'm willing to listen to any take that goes against the wider narrative, but nothing that was said here really challenges anything being said on most tech news sites.

Yeah news sites might not always have full understanding of the semantics but the wider piont of Google's Manifest V3 restricting uBlock Origin capabilties and not offering an adequate solution is still very valid.

I believe Kuma's soul was moved into that giant Robot because Vegapunk didn't have it within himself to essentially kill Kuma. Giving Kuma an ancient Iron Giant's soul achieves the same effect and is more humane. Also makes scene why Kuma's current body just scaled the Red Line like the Iron Giant did in the past attacking Mary Geoise.

As a non-American this name still sounds really wierd to me. I just mentally picture meat juice on cookies.

 

The campaign is aimed at businesses looking to launch their first store or physical space, and the chosen firms will be given a prime store location for an initial six-month period. These opportunities will be 100% rent-free for brands, with a minimum reduction of business rates of 70%. Stores will either be available for single occupancy or as a themed concept store shared between multiple brands.

 

Asked about his view of the controversy surrounding Mr Khan’s proposal to expand the ULEZ, Mr Livingstone said: “I would have started it - if I hadn’t lost to Boris, it would have been in operation for a decade. It’s going to save tens of thousands of lives.

“So many people die from air pollution in London. Boris, when he beat me, scrapped all my plans to tackle this because I was already working on it.

“And then in his eight years as Mayor, 76,000 Londoners died from air pollution. Fortunately, Sadiq Khan has taken that up now, and it’ll get better. But, that is our problem.”

He said: “I would be doing it if I was there. I just want a car free London, and everyone on the Tube and bus and the train.”

 

Archaeologists have discovered that the huge Roman mosaics discovered near the Shard last year, were actually part of a Roman tomb.

This rare piece of history was discovered just a stone’s throw from Borough Market and London Bridge station, said the Museum of London Archeology (MOLA).

The remains of the structure at the Liberty of Southwark site have an ‘astonishing level of preservation’, making it the most intact Roman mausoleum ever to be discovered in Britain, according to MOLA.

I can't say I'm a fan of it, I think it's cop out rather then a true attempt to improve public transport around the Greater London area, but at least it's something (unless it gets cancelled or only partially completed which is always something you shouldn't count out with TFL)? Will you see yourself using it? What's your thoughts?
