I always bypass ever launching Edge by installing with winget install mozilla.firefox

Or just install Linux.

The non-Fandom wiki is better.

Yes, some unions do that, but not all. Some are company or situation specific.

Buying $109 worth of Bitcoin back in 2014. I was going to buy a year cloud mining contract, but the company (hashop) went out of business before I could. (I dodged a bullet there) I then proceeded to spend bits of it here and there (coincidentally, my second worst financial move) until I had about $70 worth left, which I put in a paper wallet and forgot about. In 2020, I was able to sell most of the Bitcoin, and bought a vehicle, which helped me get through college and made me more eligible when I met the girl who would become my wife. All this to say, I made some dumb decisions that just happened to turn out well for me. YMMV

Some background if anyone is interested.

I yes, we've got a Problem. And that starts with P and that rhymes with C and that stands for CHESS!

Paper is renewable. The fuel used to transport it is not. And let's not forget the energy that goes into manufacturing and printing on the paper.

We haven't been able to find a Walmart Pickup location that doesn't use way too many plastic grocery bags, so we finally got around to buying and using reusable bags, and it's so much better! I can actually bring in the groceries in one trip now. I'm never going back. IDK why the shoppers at Walmart insist on putting only 1 or 2 items in each plastic bag. I understand keeping some items separate for food safety, but this is ridiculous! I used to live close to my grandma who crochets plastic grocery bags into sleeping pads for unhoused folks, but we moved away from her and have no use for 20-30 plastic bags a week.

Noah Kekai talking to Faith in Mirrors Edge Catalyst I just restarted my save in Mirror's Edge Catalyst, and man did I miss Noah! It's good to have him back, at least until I finally run out of side quests and have to play the mission where he is callously ripped from my life again!

I highly recommend timeshift. It makes it easy to make system snapshots (think system restore points) at regular intervals so that if you try something and it breaks your system, you can restore it to a working state. It has saved me hours of work from all of the reinstalls that I didn't have to do. I wish I had something like this when I first started out with Linux. It would have saved me dozens of Linux installs.

  • Overwatch: 964 hours, still Bronze 🥉
  • Elite Dangerous: 823 hours
  • Eve Online: 504 hours, all in 2020
  • Portal 2: 195 hours *Team Fortress 2: 143 hours

Honorable mention: Deep Rock Galactic with 135 hours in the past 4 months since I got the game.

Edit: formatting.

Titles are editable on Lemmy, so you can fix the spelling if you want.

Steal the ruckus!

That's the thing, the water is boiling, it just isn't hot. You're right that it wouldn't brew tea better than water at the same temperature at sea level though. I wonder how bubbling factors in, if at all.

Here is a great article explaining the extent of the immunity.

The 119-page decision affords the executive immunity from criminal prosecution for “official acts” in two layers—core constitutional acts that are absolutely protected, and presumptive immunity for official acts that are not core that can be overcome only if the government can show that applying a criminal prohibition on that act wouldn’t encroach on the functions of the executive branch. Unofficial acts are not protected.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but ordering mass executions seems to be barely in the presumptive immunity area, and also would be political suicide. There would be serious repercussions if any president ordered the excecution of any innocent American.

I'm curious about your source of information about the restrictions on what evidence can be presented to the jury. I hadn't heard that before, and I'd like to learn more.

Do you have the original prompt?

It's a Wonderful Life. Every year on Christmas, and every year I can relate with George just a little bit more. I've even seen a stage version of it love!

Mixxx can do all of those things, it's a free alternative to Serato DJ and similar. It's super straightforward to playback audio slowed to the exact BPM you need, loop it, and/or play it in a different key. Give it a try!

Let me know if you need any help.

Rock and Stone!

Username checks out.

If one must use liquid accelerants, kerosene or (gasp) charcoal lighting fluid are good choices because they don't turn into gas as readily or burn as quickly as gas. Again only of you must. Solid fire starters are more reliable and safe anyway.

Where are you from? Because here in the US, our garden hoses do neither of those things.

Hmm, it looks like the first few messages there are doing initial setup. After that, it looks like it's having trouble loading some of its libraries. Then it isn't able to read your sound devices. I haven't run Mixxx with nixos or pipewire, but maybe try the flatpak? Sorry it isn't running out of the box for you.

Saved. I'm looking forward to discovering some good stuff!

They have a point. After the Win10 EOL, the only secure option for hardware that doesn't meet Win11 requirements will be Linux.

Actually, the book has a completely different set of clues for the egg hunt, and you get to know the characters a lot better.

Overwatch. I've played since 2018 and I still haven't climbed out of Bronze. I love the story and character lore a ton though!
