They are not joking, and some cars cannot adjust the angle or lateral position of the headrest without replacement. There are cars (like 2009 Lincoln MKZs, cough) that have headrests and seats that look and feel exactly like the image.

I owned one for about 3 years, and I still blame it for starting my weird neck/shoulder problems years later.

I think the voiceover was added for YouTube, but I’m pretty sure that footage came from a game in 1991 “Zero Wing”

This is just an impressive troll, right?

I mean, where you sign up says something about you, right?

Yarr.

Unpopular opinion (at least in the Fediverse): while mastodon exists and is nice (if a little harder to grasp), Threads actually has a sufficient user base to be considered a substitute for Xitter. I was watching it during the debates and there was lively enough conversation to be interesting and still unable to read every comment that tagged the debate in real time.

Down with centralized social media and all that, but just a suggestion if you miss the volume of posts and the centralized interface that Xitter dumps out.

Poison is generic. Venom is specific to normal method of delivery (e.g. snakes and bees).

Swallowing venom may or may not hurt you. Probably not a great idea, but there’s a better chance you’ll be okay.

Getting a known poison stabbed/injected intravenously seems likely to be pretty effective, but it depends on the mode of action. Blood goes everywhere in the body, so it will likely find its target eventually.

I had the same experience. Nano is great if you’re used to notepad or a generic, limited text editor.

Once you learn a terminal editor like eMacs or vim, why go back? So much less hand motion going to mouse, arrows, and back.

It’s remarkably difficult to really fuck up freebsd. On Linux, getting boots to fail is easy. FreeBSD is quite a bit more robust in that regard, as the base image isn’t updated piecemeal.

Hahaha. I feel dumber than a ferengi who can’t remember the rules of acquisition.

Thanks for your service!

In Pennsylvania, I believe liquor stores do have to scan ID for most purchases.

Bars don’t HAVE to scan. The age threshold is fairly arbitrary. That said, there are companies who do contract stings/spot checks at bars (contracted by the owner of the chain, usually) to make sure they’re carding everyone.

One of my friends lost a job because of said sting by an 35 year old employee (who definitely looked over 30) and a zero tolerance policy for failing said checks.

So it makes sense to me that the bar wouldn’t provide alcohol to anyone without ID. That’s how they were trained.

Love the comics.

Small feedback: could you make the text a little bigger relative to the image? On my tiny phone I have to zoom in to every panel individually to read it.

The food thing seems like the real winner here.

Signal’s defaults are pretty good about that. Push notifications are both opt-in and the information they send can be selected by the user. You can have it say “new message” and that’s it. Or the senders name. Or the whole message.

I agree that it’s not intuitive that that’s a leak to most people, but push notifications are kind of wonky how they work.

No matter how good the protocol or client encryption, your privacy is only as good as your own physical security for the device in question.

Given that if you lose your private key, there is no recovery, I would be surprised if there were real back doors in the clients. Maybe unintentional ways to leak data, but you can go look for yourself: https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-Android

They have one for each client.

The register simply says “nothing to see here” 😂

There are dozens of us. Dozens!

I feel your pain man. Our university of 40k people did the same thing “from on high” and we ran into the same problems in our lab. We only had 4 million files to move into a Teams share. Which, btw, takes about 5 weeks to “sync” to OneDrive, which is how we were expected to replace our workflow instead of a shared network storage drive our lab owned

Wait til your table with all the checksums gets messed up on an “older” btrfs install. Happened to me on a VM because I didn’t know copy-on-write should be disabled for large frequently partially updated files. It also slowed that VMs IO down a lot.

Like most file systems, BTRFS is great if you know the edge cases. I recently moved to ZFS on my new work system, which has been a great change in terms of in-line snapshots and the like.

If EXT4 meets your needs, that’s awesome. If you understand how to use a different FS well or are willing to learn (and risk), I would also encourage other options as well.

Sounds like they could have been lazy and simply disabled/blocked your dns lookups, or stopped providing your route to 0.0.0.0/0. VPN provides new dns provider and a route to the internet at large, and you’re back in business.

the subreddit r/okbuddybaldur is pretty much 50% Astarion porn and 50% Durge/Gortash shipping.

So yes. People apparently want it. I guess.
