Between adding the adds to Prime video, and their refusal to use real couriers to deliver packages to me, I cancelled prime and stopped using Amazon altogether.

Many people do this.

Many people are insane.

The loyal cult is the result of Stockholm syndrome.

Possibly out of the loop here, but what is Tabula Rasa?

If it happens after an hour of playing, it sounds like a heat issue. Restarting the game drops the load for a minute allowing things to cool.

Open a history book. The examples will usually be referred to as “revolutions”. The French Revolution, American Revolution, Russian Revolution. For something more modern, look at the anti-apartheid movement in South Africa.

Not having any sort of centralized leadership is a double edged sword. Your movement gains resistance to authorities being able to knock out the movement with a couple arrests, but your movement becomes much more prone to fizzling out of you can’t somehow maintain focus, which is what happened to the Occupy movement.

Part of that problem is the say 5% of people for whom anti-Israel does mean anti-jewish, and the other people who would choose to respond to Israeli genocide with a genocide of their own. It gives the Israeli government and its supporters something to point to as justification, and people who don’t pay much attention to the situation just accept that at face value.

I think the occupy movement fell apart partly due to the fact that it never really coalesced around any sort of leadership group or figurehead. The list issues kept getting longer, the list of desired changes kept getting ever more diverse and contradictory, and there was very rarely anyone who could articulately explain to the general public what the movement was about.

I think my level of excitement is going to be tied to the person asking me if I want to meet the bees. If it’s a nice old German lady, cool. If it’s Christoph Waltz, I’m going to be concerned.

Re-invent. Your still far too late to be first.

Every application kind of needs two modes: a default mode where the user is railroaded into making the right decision, and an “I’m not an idiot and will actually read the documentation before/after trying to make things work” mode. If you stick the toggle for the two modes somewhere that you’d only find by reading the documentation, people will automatically categorize themselves into the mode the ought to be in.

I’m 90% sure that would block no actual porn.

Sound quality will be exactly the same among any of the services that offer lossless files (ie all of the ones that aren’t Spotify). That’s literally the point of lossless.

I have a “server” cobbled together out of old PC parts. I have proxmox running on it and Home Assistant is one of the VMs running on that machine.

All jokes aside, why do people even bother with vi?

I assume lack of demand. In your own home, you’d be keeping the handle clean, and public washrooms often use the touchless sensor types.

People also just need to be more selective about where and how they automate.

For example, I wanted my coffee to automatically start in the morning. So instead of buying a “smart” coffee maker, I bought the dumbest possible one and a smart switch. Now, no matter what happens with that switch, the worst that can happen is I have to manually hit a button to get coffee.

OpenLinkHub

I somehow came across a guy who seems to be doing exactly that first part for RGB control of Corsair products.

Dude will add support for your devices in a matter of days if it doesn’t already exist, and won’t even take donations for his project. The open source community is awesome sometimes.
