I just landed on my 3rd - Gleba. Vulcanus and Fulgora are “good enough” for now. Once I have Gleba science up and running, I’ll migrate to a bigger Nauvis base, because my starter base is bottlenecked by copper throughput with no easy way of increasing it.

Already possible, I believe. At least on client level: I’ve blocked a lot of junk in Voyager

Notification whenever there’s something in the mod queue of a board I moderate. At least I don’t see any such notification when using Voyager.

User migration between instances.

When this group of people on discord are online: Helldivers 2. It’s a nice way of killing time while chitchatting.

When not: Factorio with the recently release Space Age expansion. Absolutely loving it.

Norwegian here, and there are some common mistakes I see in people not used to the climate.

• When walking on ice, at least the very slippery kind, use short steps. It reduces the chance of slipping.
• And if you do slip and begin to fall, take it like a champ and sit down gracefully. The most comedic sights are the ones flailing to try and stay uptight.
• Buy a snow shovel.
• There are many expensive things sold as ice and snow thawers, but these are usually just variations of salt and gravel. Whatever salt you can buy in bulk at the grocery store works just fine. And any sand/gravel that you can find in the summer will do.
• When shoveling snow, clear a wider path than what you think you’ll need. A narrow strip is hard to keep clear after a while of heavy snowfall.
• If you have a car, make sure to have proper winter tires. If you do, you won’t have to bother with snow chains.
• Car batteries don’t like the cold. Make sure yours can hold charge well. Overdoing it with AmpHours is also a bonus.
• Get a scraper to remove ice from your windshield.
• Wet feet become cold feet. Stay dry. Wool socks are amazing at keeping your feet both warm and dry.

Same. Podcasts are also great, and some are even made specially for this purpose, like Nothing Much Happens.

Tested it on linux mint, and it works just fine for me. 28G of RAM free, no swap in use.

Using Firefox 132, mo plugins/add-ons. Fairly stock Mint install, freshly installed yesterday.

This depends. I’ve found that the cheaper KVM solutions are pretty picky when it comes to supported hardware and standards. While the more expensive/industrial ones are more forgiving.

Well, logically the immunity would also cover the vice president, as the stated argument for immunity was that a president should be able to act without having to clear everything with a lawyer. Logically, a vice president should then also have the same immunity.

So I guess murdering the president to take their job simply has to be done while shouting “This is an official act of the office of the vice president!” as a battle cry.

Not sure honestly. It may have been the year before. Or even earlier. Or maybe I’m just slow at noticing popular media trends. As you can see, I’m doing great at growing old.

If my kids demanded to stay up past bedtime to watch election coverage, I’d be seriously worried

With all the Bowsettes last year, I’m tempted to say no in the name of equality.

Nowadays it’s the online account centric shite and all the privacy implications that come along with it. But even before that it was annoying to just trying to do the thing

Doing the thing on linux: command that does the thing
Doing the thing on windows: click here, click there, click some more, second tab, submenu, click advanced, type in the info, save, ok, “yes I’m sure”, click ok, click apply, close 626254 windows, reboot

Agreed. While 3, VC, and SA were awesome, the shift in style made them so different they’re not really comparable.

GTA2 stuck to the top-down view that made the original game so much fun. And the faction system was pretty cool.

I really enjoyed VC and SA, but I found it a bit jarring that the character now had lines. I always preferred that he was a “shut up and do what you’re told” kind of guy.

GTA4 was fine.

GTA5 was a really nice tech demo that lacked depth in the gameplay. Great writing, though.

Whenever I show up to a “mobilization project” which involves lifting and mounting shipping containers of machinery and IT equipment onboard ships, I check whether the containers have had their grounding wires attached, as well as checking if the deck welds have been spray painted with protective coating.
If not, I need to check if the cable runs are properly done, deck fiberoptics protected from crane operations, antenna mounted without obstructions, etc.

Checking random coax cable connections whether they’ve gotten a proper dose of molycote inside is also a pretty good indicator, but the tech department has gotten really attentive in regards to that. The grounding wire is really the only brown M&M I have left on them.

20 years ago, the right wing propaganda machine was focused on (before they went full out fascist) low taxes for the “job creators” such as corporations and rich people, on the basis of that leading to more lucrative job opportunities for everyone else. The thinking was that the people and corporations in this low-tax environment would have incentives for creating jobs “here” instead of moving them overseas.

Not everyone on that side of the isle have realized that this results in jobs still ending up overseas, along with money that could’ve funded schools, roads, libraries, et al. And many of those who have realized it continue along the same path because it’s too profitable for them to do so.

Remember this next time you hear slogans such as “trickle down economy”, or Glitch McConnells favorite: “What’s good for the goose is good for the gander”.
