    Thanks for sharing - this is wicked. It's strange that it has taken so long, but it's very cool that we're possibly seeing a return to wind power, and this looks WILD to boot.

    I was pretty sure manifest v3 had already happened - but when I knew it was coming, I went ahead and switched ahead of time. Came with the extra bonus that now I'm ad free on mobile too! Mobile websites are absolutely filthy with popovers and 2 sentence paragraphs with an ad between every paragraph. I'm sick of it. And unfortunately I spend so much more time browsing the web from my phone these days than my desktop - so when I swapped on pc to Firefox, it was such a relief to have browser extensions on my phone now too.

    She deports all republicans to the nations of their ancestors.

    Believe me, they don't want these people either. However, my understanding is Russia has open arms for disenfranchised Republicans. Please, don't let me stop you. No taksies backsies though.

  • [Tom Warren] The PS5 Pro still hasn’t sold out in the US or UK. Looks like the $700 price point will mean this console will be readily available this holiday

    Did people get bitchy on the internet when they released the PS One, the PS2 slim, 5 generations of PS3, or the PS4 Pro? Or the Xbox One X, Xbox 360 E, the Switch OLED, 2DS, DS lite, Gameboy Advance SP, Sega Genesis 2, Sega Genesis 3, Sega Saturn 2? I certainly don't remember this much discourse back then. It's like every gamer on the internet has collective amnesia about mid generation refreshes and how they have existed since the dawn of console gaming.

    Just as always - it's probably not meant for you if you're perfectly happy with your base model.

    And just like all those multitude of prior examples - no, they certainly will not release games that ONLY work on the mid cycle refresh device. Because that would be a really poor financial decision. And can you imagine the discourse if you had to buy a $700 console to replace your $500 console so you could play all the newest first party titles? On a device that has likely 4 years max before it is subplanted by the PS6? That would be a far more justified upset in my opinion.

    There are also USB-C earbuds. I've kept a pair in the glove box in case I'm out and don't have my wireless in my pocket. My wireless are not a part of my every day carry, so it's nice to have a backup. I'm grateful to have them when I need them, but I HATE using them now that I have grown accostomed to true wireless.

    They're in spring right now, and Tazmania is below freezing and snowing in some areas literally this very moment. So I guess it does. It is VERY far south, almost as far south as the tip of Argentina.

    I understand what they're trying to do - bring attention to total cost of ownership and the price disparity between petrol and electricity. It's clearly marked and impossible to miss when you're on the website speccing out a car, so it's maybe a little initially deceptive, but not scummy imo. But it also leads to screenshots like this...

    Well there's already a preexisting list. Presumably, projects today that might have been at the top of the list are now deprioritized in favor of projects that meet these criteria.

    She's not a teacher, shes in the library. But - she is allowed absolutely zero ot. She's already had her time card adjusted on days that she worked early or late to match her scheduled hours. And they only pay her for 7 hours a day, but it's an 8 hour work day and she hasn't once had the time to take a hour for lunch.

    What even IS the recourse when it's not a comproration, but the government that is stealing your wages? 🤷 I think I'm more upset about it all than she is, because the quality of life is way higher than her last job. And so I'll just keep it all to myself.

    Thanks. Damn, he just has so little control, he'll say almost anything. It's not exactly encriminating but leaves little doubt that Drumpf knew exactly what was going on, as if we didn't know he participated.

    My wife got her first pay check last week at her new job in a US school district. I was certain something was wrong when it came in, but the pay stub did nothing to show the breakdown of hours, rate, etc. She finally got a response today - and I've learned that school breaks are NOT PTO. She gets zero PTO she can take during the school year, and while frustrating not to be able to choose when you take your time off, I assumed that was just because she gets the summer off. But apparently she gets no PTO AND takes 71 days out of the year off without pay, effectively. So they do you the favor of paying you over 12 months, but you still only get paid for hours worked. The rate of pay seemed like it would be a pay raise on the surface, but I never anticipated needing to dock it by 20%.

    Zero PTO. Just the perks of American life.

    Lesson learned was that I should have conceded when I saw Onslaught's, I absolutely knew what was in his deck but I was mostly ignoring his side - just strategizing to get the biggest power totals possible because a lane with "only" 20 or a 30 is often not enough against a MODOK/Hela/Tribunal high rolling 50-70 in all lanes - but his ongoing synergies really elevated the deck. I'm not sure I ever saw a Tribunal though, but with Morb and Strong Guy he very well may not have had him at all. Really cool deck. Win or lose, great match for a gold final boss - gg.

    I snapped on turn 3 when I saw London and had Shuri, Nimrod, and Destroyer in hand. I did get lucky that Destroyer didn't duplicate into Knowhere though, or I would have lost 4 Nimrods. Pretty close call but satisfying end.
