Which is what Trump wants, as he also publicly admits he just doesn’t pay bills if he doesn’t feel like it.
Looking forward to all the lawsuits between the two should he lose.

Bingo. This is 100% the reason, and it’s funny that people assume anything else. When you can just watch porn at any time with no effort, sex scenes are gratuitous and awkward distractions except in rare circumstances.

How is giving a sober and straightforward explanation of why he can’t use Firefox “bitching”? The simple fact is “switch to Firefox” isn’t a solution for everyone in every case. Burying your head in the sand about that benefits nobody.

If you need the feature set of Bluesky and can’t use Mastodon, please also follow https://fed.brid.gy/ if you can. This will allow Mastodon users to follow you from the Fediverse.

If they don’t, please also follow https://fed.brid.gy/ so your BlueSky account is federated to Mastodon. If you move to Threads, please turn on Fediverse integration.
It’s so frustrating, between Mastodon, Bluesky and Threads almost every person I used to follow on Twitter exists somewhere else. But only about half of them are accessible in any one platform.

He doesn’t look as old. Better is subjective, but he looks much more like the very old man he is without it and without the combover.
That’s the only reason.

Worse than that, it’s not even LinkedIn. It’s a (very good) LinkedIn parody site: https://www.shlinkedin.com/

I'll begin with the disclaimer that if you're already of the view that Mario Party is good and fun and not at all a worse-than-Monopoly-at-Christmas affair, Jamboree is exactly that and more of it.
The reviewer hates Mario Party as a concept, so it’s hard to take too seriously.

I think a fat cat on a spit with the text “Oh ja grill mich daddy” really transcends all linguistic barriers.

Technically it doesn’t stand for anything now, but it was definitely Good Old Games.

GOG is “Good Old Games”, a digital distribution service for PC games run by CD Projekt Red, developers of The Witcher and Cyberpunk. It mostly focuses on old games from the Win95/98 days that have been patched/fixed by their in-house dev team to run on modern Windows releases. However, it also sells all CD Projekt Red titles and seems to be expanding to just be a regular PC game distribution service.
It’s being talked about a lot right now because unlike Steam, EGS, and other stores they sell you a DRM-free download. Because of recent legislation in California, companies are required to use clearer language when they aren’t selling you something that you own forever, they are instead selling you a license to access something.
This has reignited discussion on digital ownership, Steam, and what happens if you die or Steam shuts down/is acquired and you lose your non-transferable access to the games in your library. GOG is the ideal solution right now, because it while it offers a client that is simple to use like Steam (called “GOG Galaxy”) but if they announce a shutdown or acquisition, you can simply download offline installers for all your games and you don’t lose access to anything.

I can’t speak to Lemmy specifically but my Reddit years were ages 15-30. I think I got my fill of arguing on the internet then.
I write a lot of comments on Lemmy that I end up deleting before posting because I just don’t want the hassle of arguing with someone about it who is being deliberately obtuse or arguing in bad faith.
That’s not an indictment of Lemmy specifically, but I think my lack of interest in those arguments comes with age and I suspect my story isn’t unique, the demographics will line up for a lot of Lemmy users.

Isn’t this always the case? I get people have a hate-on for Windows 11 lately but every major version of Windows 10 has kept the old version for a month or so, allowing you to revert if needed. You can run disk cleanup and get the space back early if you want.
I guess the notable part here is that the disk cleanup part isn’t working? You can also just wait for the time to elapse and it will delete itself.

Ok well literally everything tells you not to do that. Do what you want, but general rule is 3-4 days for most meat things, and you should be careful at 5.

I know you CAN eat 5 day old stuff out of the fridge, but it’s at the point where I would be suspicious, depending on the item.

Cooked stuff is borderline if it spends 5 days in the fridge. 5 days NOT in the fridge is insanity.

The only thing that (sometimes) causes the politics of Republicans to change is directly experiencing what their policies support and promote.
See all the Republicans rejecting Trump now when anyone with a brain could see how awful and dangerous he was in the 90s, all those that flipped on LGBTQ+ issues because they had a gay or trans child, those that demonize welfare until their district/state falls on hard times, etc.
I think it’s fair to expect someone who has experienced sexual harassment to be disillusioned by a party that is trying to get a convicted rapist to be President.

The interviewer asked if he would revoke it and he said yes he would revoke it. Words have meaning. He was asked a question, and he answered it very clearly and honestly more lucidly than his average response. He repeated the word revoke.
If he meant “let expire” he would have said “No, I wouldn’t revoke it but I would allow that to expire.” I don’t know what here is ambiguous. I get it, people hate Trump enough that sometimes they fill in the blanks with the worst possible thing. It’s hard to blame them because he usually says the worst possible things, but regardless that isn’t what is happening here.
To enroll, go to Software Update and tap the prompt at the bottom. Device region needs to be set to US, language to US English, Siri also needs to be set to US. I was able to join the wait list from Canada after changing all those settings.
This has been posted all over the place but if you haven’t seen it, this is a huge change. To get it working, you need all your Apple TVs on iOS 18 DB1. Remove all your HomePods from your home if you have them. Then, you should see the option to turn off “Automatic Selection”. Turn it off and pick the Home Hub you want. You can then readd your HomePods to your home. This process sounds painful but it’s actually pretty quick, HomePods remove, reset and readd to your Home fairly quickly. This whole process probably only took about 10 mins.
Apparently coming in a dev beta soon, although properly launching in Fall.
Typically more dev & API focused but helpful if you’re encountering an issue and want to know if it’s known, or want to see if there are any known showstoppers preventing you from upgrading.
Always worth a look through for stuff that wasn’t mentioned in the keynote.
