FL would’ve been a landslide and the courts wouldn’t have even been asked if the greens voted for Gore.

Not like they used to, mostly. They just replaced “contract” with “equipment payment plan”. Because $50/mo for 24 months is easier for a consumer to swallow than a lump payment of $1200, especially when the carrier is giving you a $10 or $20 (or more) “discount” on the phone.

But as long as the EPP is active, the phone is locked to that carrier. And I think that’s fair. No different than the bank holding the title while you finance a car.

The thing is that the plans that have these equipment deals are significantly more expensive than others. Namely big name plans like TMo or Verizon, compared to MVNO plans like Mint or Visible. So you end up paying more for the plan because you get “a deal” on your phone (but still end up ultimately paying more).

Don’t let this election, or any election, allow us to forget the time back in nineteen ninety eight when the undertaker threw mankind off hell in a cell and plummeted sixteen feet through an announcers table.

Pet peeve #209: implying DFW has a bigger furry scene than Austin. For some reason I doubt that.

If you give a mouse a cookie, he’s going to ask for a glass of milk.

You mean to tell me, three days a week, they have to:

• wake up extra hours early
• pack a lunch or plan to pay for one
• put on hard pants
• drive their own vehicle in traffic, with their own gas and wear/tear
• pay for their own parking.
• do the exact same work in their designated space
• drive back home in traffic 9 hours later

All for the same pay and several hours away from my family, home, or bed?

No fucking thanks.

Going remote was the best fucking raise I ever got, and it didn’t cost them a dime.

I’ll start integrating the webhookers with Slack.

This is bad practice.

More accurately it should look something like this:

# Load sys library for exiting with status code
import sys

def sayHelloWorld(outPhrase: str="Hello World"):
    # Main function, print a phrase and return NoneType
    print(outPhrase)
    return None

if __name__=="__main__":
    # Provide output and exit cleanly when run from shell
    sayHelloWorld()
    sys.exit(0)
else:
    # Exit with rc!=0 when not run from shell
    sys.exit(1)

Does DisplayPort also support audio?

Yes, DisplayPort supports multi-channel audio and many advanced audio features. DisplayPort to HDMI adapters also include the ability to support HDMI audio.

They aren’t getting beaten up for their money. They are gleefully handing it over to the bully for protection from the real bullies…trans women playing highschool basketball.

Pressing X to doubt. Not because it’s a dumb idea (because I wouldn’t put that past them), but because Microsoft is seemingly getting rid of every keyboard shortcut that doesn’t involve the windows key.

I thought that the idea was to stop crashing old satellites into earth and instead require they maintain enough propellent to move themselves off into a graveyard orbit.

Yeah. That’s why we can rank on school nights.

Most the players better than us have to go to school in the morning.

We trade sleep for funtime.

As a parent I don’t have the time for multiplayer gaming.

Sometimes I feel like picking up an MMO. Nostalgia is calling for TBC Classic. But then I remember that I’m not going to have this combination of desire and time to play again for like a week, at least.

And I’d spend all my available time tonight just installing it and getting it working.

And then forget it’s installed.

And then next time I can play, it needs to patch.

That’s not way to play an MMO, especially one where I’d be paying $15/Mo for what amounts to a couple hours of playable time.

So yeah…single player ftw.

How you gonna have Wendover and not Half as Interesting (his shorter form side-channel)?

No Road Guy Rob? Or Practical Engineering?

No Extra History? (I only know him from Nebula but I think he’s on YouTube too)

Also recommend 8bit-Guy for retro computing and Modern Vintage Gamer for retro gaming.

I agree with you…the cost of a gallon of gas is, and has always been, less than the cost to remove a gallon of gas worth of CO2 from the atmosphere, and I don’t think the price should ever have been less than that amount. I don’t think that’s an unfair position, cleaning up your mess should be a part of the cost of the good.

But man what a way to fuck the majority of the 99%.
