Inflation or not, a 50% price hike between generations is beyond absurd.

Logitech has gone from one of the best tech brands to essentially garbage. The hardware might still be ok, but their software is crap, and those comments about selling a mouse subscription…

When the news first broke, I assumed Russua was behind the ceasefire and had already pulled Trumps strings to their advantage.

Now I’m wondering if this administration might be too incompetent to be corrupt.

There was a big, high wall there that tried to stop me A sign was painted said “Private Property” But on the backside, it didn’t say nothing This land was made for you and me

Simple bully logic. If you are bigger than someone else, simply hit and threaten them to get whatever you want. Works really well until all the victims gang up and fight back together.

Lawyer, friends/family, cloud storage, or safety deposit box all seem like viable normal options.

To be extra safe. 6 hard drives (each with a copy of the files, and four stacks of Blu-ray disks (each with a copy of the files). Divide these into at least two yeti coolers (include a large silica gel pack just in case), and bury the coolers as deep as possible in the woods.

Scenario I’ve been playing with:

Suppose you are kidnapped by two people. They tell you that one of them will shoot you and then let you go, but you get to decide who shoots. Person A says he will shoot you in the head. Person B says he will shoot you in the shoulder. Which do you choose?

The more think about this the more I like it. Both persons are clearly awful and contributed to the situation. Both could offer better choices but refuse. Both are rather similar in outcomes. But one is clearly worse.

Is it rational to choose to be shot at all? Is it rational to not choose the better of two alternatives?

The conspiracy theorist in me wonders if the plan is to run up a massive debt now and then push the responsibility for dealing with that debt onto democrats if they win control after midterms.

This happened with the shift from manual to automatic transmissions. I used to frequently hear/read people complaining that no one knows how to drive a stick anymore.

I was curious and checked while shopping today. There weren’t any, just a bare shelf.

Tales from mage support:

Mage: how can I help you

Lord: I was scrying local ladies when all the sudden my crystal ball started screaming that I have the pox and need to throw 100 gold under the bridge to cure it.

Mage: … tell me you didn’t throw gold under the bridge

Lord: …

Mage: …

Lord: so anyway you repollished the crystal last week so this is your fault. Fix it.

I loved Torque Test Channel’s take on the whole metric thing… https://youtu.be/2QUum9NymZY?si=8w7PCNReVX1-3tMn

Sometimes they are just broken. Bad scales, sensors, etc. Kroger’s converyor style checkouts are especially bad.
