Are Ubiquiti devices still the best value for homelabs and small businesses these days?

Pigs, cows, and chickens also experience incredible suffering in factory farms. The whole industry is rotted.

Two great games that are perfect for Steam Deck - Hades and Hollow Knight.

Practically speaking I think having a mini black hole in your home would look like being rapidly crushed to death.

Jamie Loftus is hilarious, highly recommend her shows and podcasts

The only good printer is a dead printer.

Yes, he is a major character in the single player campaign along with Gary Oldman, Mark Strong, Gillian Anderson, and others who provided voice acting and facial performance capture.

Hi Ashley! Nice to meet you. Do you listen to any podcasts?

You're not entirely wrong but the Pal system itself has a good amount of depth - Pals have traits and skills, and are weaker or stronger against different other types of Pals, so you can be very clever about what skills you teach them and what fights/environments you take them into. The game can get very easy if you exploit this system properly but is quite challenging if you ignore Pal stats and just grind levels and gear.

That's basically what the solidify modifier does, except it's nondestructive

Odd choice to use GrapheneOS if you don't care about security. More power to you, though.

FreeTube is available on Windows as well.

The question was - what would you like to see the US government do, hypothetically. I would like us to no longer be allied with a genocidal apartheid colonial nation.

Also, the US has used its military power for regime change a dozen times since 1990, not to mention before. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_involvement_in_regime_change#1991%E2%80%93present:_Post-Cold_War

Any time the US (or any other major world power) does anything I'm going to question the motive, as it's likely motivated by greed. However, in a hypothetical where I could make the US do whatever I want in this one specific time and place, I would force a regime change in Israel to one that is, at the very least, less bloodthirsty. At the most, one that would initiate a peaceful retreat of Israeli settlers from all native Palestinian land.

Not from scratch - just like with other AI models they are created by mixing together a bunch of existing voices.

The DLSS3 mod runs via ReShade. I don't mind people charging for their work, but this guy is selling access to an Nvidia dll via an open source tool, which I am not a fan of. Not a lot of original work, just repackaging.

I trust you have your own threat model and know what's best for you, but in my opinion privacy necessitates security.

Baldurs Gate 3 is a masterpiece, GOTY for me so far, but every other game this year I would rank below Star Citizen for me personally. Starfield especially just makes me wish I was playing Star Citizen.

I've participated in in-person protests with various groups about a dozen times a year since 2020 and I don't even live in a city. People are definitely out here protesting, we just don't get any media coverage at all unless we break things.

edit- in an attempt to actually be helpful - search the internet for any progressive or socialist activist groups near you and sign up for their newsletters/follow their socials. Try to attend a few events, and there you'll hopefully meet people who can get you connected to local anarchists/more radical folks who go out and protest a lot. Then you can carpool with folks and share expenses and have a safe group of people to go to protests with.

Agreed - it's more fun to play than most of the major releases of the past few years.
