So they are keeping the Mail app, but changing it so you can’t send or receive email. That seems pretty pointless. Just remove it from Windows altogether and be done with it.

Then they escaped to the Delta Quadrant.

All this was foretold in that documentary sent back from the future: Star Trek Voyager.

Not sure why you are being downvoted just for not realizing about Brave using Chromium. That seems a bit harsh.

Here’s a list of non-Chromium web browsers from August for you or anyone else who might find it helpful.

It’s not that easy for most people to move to a different country.

Whatever she does do is just going to be reversed. Good or bad, it will be fine purely out of spite. It’s a futile exercise.

Thankfully, she’s not even on the radar there.

for many of us still using X, there’s a sense that we are trapped on the site with Musk

Seriously? Is Musk pointing a gun to their heads or something? Just ditch it. It’s not difficult. Millions already have. They need to grow a proverbial spine, close their account, and stop giving credibility and attention to that toxic nepo-baby man-child.

Exactly. Good job. Hang in there.

Sorry friend, but in the immortal words of Karen Carpenter: “it’s only just begun!”

We still face weeks of crippling political analysis, sensationalist reporting about phantom voter fraud, tantrums, recriminations, threats, and histrionics (if Harris wins, and probably even if trump wins his followers will still do this), hand-wringing about the far right’s plans, probably some domestic terrorism, etc.

But hey, you did your part - you voted. And so did I and many others. We did all we can.

Aww, poor diddums. Does he have a full diaper or does he need a nap? Maybe both?

He didn’t even throw in a “NO HOMO!!1!” at the end.

Very sad. Very low energy.

I’m really sorry you’re in this situation. I can’t fully understand where you’re coming from because I can’t walk in your shoes. But I genuinely wish you the best. It sounds like you have a shit-ton of stress and are dealing with depression right now. I can relate to that part at least, and I really hope you can get some help from a counselor, because while they can’t help with some things, they can make a world of difference in other ways. Hopefully I don’t piss you off by saying this, but… sending you a virtual hug. Hang in there.

He’s bona fide!

The funny thing is that they’ve actually improved the graphics of the game a lot over the years. Not just things like water animation, but in improving the resolution of bitmaps for characters, landscapes, etc. they’ve even totally overhauled the graphics for some races (e.g. gnomes, which for a while in beta led to nightmarish animations of their eyes bulging through their eyelids when they blinked).

But to your point: yes, they’ve deliberately left the characters having a goofy, disproportionate cartoonist feel. Because it’s such an integral signature of the game, always has been, and always will be.

Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, R-Ga., joined the criticism Thursday, telling Fox News that Democrats are telling wives to lie to their husbands: “What kind of a totally amoral, corrupt, sick system have the Democrats developed?”

Ah yes, the guy who has cheated on multiple wives is talking about amorality and corruption.

Regardless of the election result, there will be a shit-ton of divorces incoming over the next 12 months because of it.

And the pandemic. The effects of the pandemic did a massive number on so many younger kids behaviorally.

So yeah, there are numerous reasons for the upswing in social and behavioral issues in kids over the last several years.

Totally irrelevant side note, but I just realized that he looks like a cross between Benny Hill and a werewolf.

Ah shit that’s unfortunate. Better luck next time, demon.

I just got back from taking one of my kids trick or treating with his friends. It was great. My wife and I got to walk and chat with the other parents while all of our kids knocked on doors and shouted “trick or treat!”. Lots of friendly, generous, nice people. And lots of shouted reminders from us for the kids to not walk on people’s front lawns, to say thank you, to be careful crossing the quiet roads. There were so many other kids out too. It was pretty crazy, but in a good way. About half of the houses were giving out candy in some way or other, with only about a quarter having an un-monitored bowl.

Then on the way home we drove past a church that was having a ‘trunk or treat’ in their parking lot. That just looked sad. There was no excitement for going up to the really cool houses that were decked out in amazing props and decorations. There was no need to hone analytical skills to determine which houses were giving out candy and which ones probably weren’t. Just going very short distances from one car to the next getting candy. My kid asked why they do that. I said it’s probably because they are a closed community who don’t really want to associate with ‘outsiders’. Give me the conventional experience over that all day every day!
