I find that the less showers I'm taking the less productive I'm probably being.

If "dusting the house" means removing dust from the environment, wouldn't de-dusting mean to empty the vacuum bag all over bombsite B?

I thought the same thing when my Disney+ rate went up a couple months ago and I couldn't find the email warning about it in my inbox or spam folders.

Why do we let these companies get away with everything? If the rates are going up, show me in the app/ui. Make it opt in. Disable my ability to watch anything until I approve the increase in spend. It should be illegal to just change the terms of a contract and say "I sent you an email."

Meh. Nova is the best launcher in my opinion but I've already been version locked to the last release before this company bought it. I've basically given up in anyone else replicating the features I want. So I'll be using this version of Nova until Google finally breaks it.

No. The Republicans have stalled confirming a replacement until just now. Up until now the committee has been dead locked with 2 Democrats and two Republicans.

News articles are full of people dumbfounded about what to do and also thanking God for protecting them.

How fucking diluted are people. Enact common sense gun laws. Don't worship the God who allowed 4 people to get murdered while grocery shopping.

While I agree with the sentiment, doesn't your own article state that immediately after the incident, multiple countries launched a group search and rescue mission which saved a lot of the victims?

The story about the millionaires, at least to me, is less about the fact that they're millionaires, and more about the fact that we have tourist visits to the remains of the Titanic. At this point I don't know who was on that tiny submersible but I'm intrigued with the tech and what could have gone wrong.

Photos as an online photo gallery is their implementation yes but they bought up Picasa the desktop gallery early on. That software included tagging and I believe face recognition by the end.

Of course they had to get rid of the dictionary! It contained words like fellatio and evolution. It even contained evollatio which is the theory that man invented fellatio!

That's literally the joke here.

You love to see it. Never heard of this company before but I'll be keeping an eye on them now. Good luck to them and every other developer standing up to the enshitification of everything.

Disgusting to see this happen but it sounds like there's very real evidence and there should be a paper trail to the back accounts of the offenders. We just need the legal system to follow through now.

I feel like, for the 35-54 bracket at least, this must be less about giving up all the modern conveniences we have today but more about wishing they could raise their children in that simpler time. You don't want your kids to be left out of what's new and cool but you also don't want them exposed to EVERYTHING these platforms bring. It's a tight rope to walk and I'm not looking forward to it when my kids are older. I know a lot of people who have gone down the road of, "I didn't have a cell phone growing up, my kids won't either." But it's not very realistic in today's world.

I tried the "New Outlook" a few months ago. There was no longer a Save As option for attachments. All attachments were downloaded to the default downloads directory.

I immediately uninstalled and didn't look back.

How about you don't change the terms people agreed to retroactively. How about if you said "no royalties", you stick with no royalties and don't come up with some bullshit fee that works exactly like a royalty.

"I haven't heard those quotes before. Presented without context, they sound pretty bad but I will reserve judgement until I've had a chance to do more research."

That wasn't that hard of a question to duck.

That's number wang!

It's going to be a little weird not playing on a touch screen but I'm ready for more layton adventures.

Usually pretty good advice for a book but actually not helpful in this book.

The real answer is to read it however you want to explore it.

That was the day I cancelled.

I only have marques brown's comment to back this up, but he said the two stage camera button doesn't do anything yet but it's coming in a future update. I'm baffled how Apple feels okay releasing this new hardware without the software to support it.

Oops. You're absolutely right.

Torches rechargable led flashlights.

And right here, you can see the point where this poster lost any last shred of good faith.

Once upon a time it was worth it for me too. But since every service is running up the rates, I had to decide which, if any, deserved my money. Google didn't make the cut. I have a feeling nobody will by the end of year

The only thing shocking about this graph to me is how few copies were purchased on GOG. I guess I'm in the minority of people who prefer to support their store directly as competition to Steam .

Another old fart here. Some of my first gaming memories are Kings Quest 1 and Space Quest 1. I remember having to go all my parents how to spell certain words to do what I needed to do.

I played both of those originals but then missed out on the sequels until they went vga - sq4 and kq5. Of course as an adult I bought all the collections so I could finally see what I missed in 2-4.

All that to say, thanks for posting this. I'll always watch another documentary on Sierra.

Dense as fuck but so meticulously crafted. Still, as much as I sing it's praises, I would only recommend it to a narrow selection of people.

But you did post the dumb article. Enjoy the downcotes and a block from me

I'm older. I have kids. I saw the value of getting time off as a father and wished it could have been more. I actually had better time off benefits than my wife though which is pretty disgraceful. No it shouldn't be on a business to fund families but it is on society as a whole to policy each other up. Like many, many other things, other countries have figured this out and America is WAY behind.

I'm pretty sure that's how Hulu started. A joint venture through several companies to stream all their shows. Problem is once Disney got in everyone else tried to spin up their own and cash out of Hulu.

It'll be investing to see what alternatives crop up one piracy makes it's comeback.

Congrats on the new Subaru. I also happily paid for the app using the introduction 3 year plan. Hit me up when you hit year 4 and see the REAL price tag they charge.

My SO hadn't seen House so we're doing it now. It's going slow because while it's a great show, it's a little too formulaic to be binge-able. We're in the next to last season now.

I recently finished a Frasier rewatch which actually made me realize I'm not sure I EVER finished the last season. Still a great show but I doubt I'll watch the reboot.

Anna Gomez is the second nominee. The first nominee got tired of waiting for confirmation.

He does? At least in America, I feel like "ho ho ho" is the traditional number of hoes.

train your muscle memory to use it

Remember Sammy Jenkins.

It's not about agreeing or not agreeing with them, it's the fact that it's a misleading fluff piece and you full well know it.
