  • Right? It's some firmware level issue, but I haven't looked deeper into it recently because I got frustrated with a couple failed patch attempts. I guess you have to include the laptop model explicitly or it doesn't know to look for it

  • I screwed up so bad. I bought a laptop to trial different Linux distros and also because my old one is 12yo now and has its own problems. However, the manufacturer ONLY provides Windows support drivers, so the keyboard won't work without a kernel level patch and I am not a kernel-patch level guy yet

  • 👍

  • It's state-controlled propaganda. If you find you tend to agree with the opinion and slant pieces, you should vary your sources to see what they're not reporting.

  • I read this like the closing lines from Hang On To Your Life by the Guess Who

  • Shit, yeah, that makes a sickening amount of sense

  • LTC's either have command or staff positions and often approve things like operations orders and contracts. I find this deeply disturbing, especially with people marinating in techbroligarch conflicts of interest. There's virtually zero chance they've been put there for no reason

  • I have never been able to figure out how to block fingerprinting without entirely disabling my browser and it looks like the race to the bottom is accelerating

  • I still enjoy his writing, but I'm not sure how to engage now. I want to separate the artist from the art and let the legal system do its thing as a separate thing and I don't know what 'right' looks like as a reader

  • I'm more concerned with the folks not getting aid because they think the process is so dreadful. It's complicated and tedious, but doable, and the determinations are generally pretty strict. I got a high rating without combat experience, but I also can't lift anything heavy and expect to move the next day without cry-in-the-car back pain. Like, I moved a table the other day and couldn't stand up the next day. I also know people with exposure to toxic waste, with fucking tumors, who refuse to seek help because it would seem weak or the process is too daunting. It's not weak to need help and it's not justifiable the damage we're asked to do to ourselves.

    However, I have also seen people get 100% rating and have no apparent difficulty functioning, but they had enough little things add up to maximize their rating. So probably part of it is the calculation, but impact to quality of life and function is difficult to quantify fairly.

    That being said, a lot (I mean a LOT) of waste could be cut from the contract process. I've seen tens of millions go to waste simply because the government didn't agree to a contract that couldn't be provided by anyone else by the close out date, and during renegotiation the company doubled the price for work that was already done.

  • I just missed 4 turns because the Jersey highways make no fucking sense. Too many lanes

  • Can confirm! It's probably the only one I can remember that doesn't have any of the creepy tropes. It has some horror that could be unsettling, but mostly it's goofy and full of whimsy, like if you got lost in the woods and ran into the Gordon Ramsey of cave dwelling

  • Hell yeah, I knew my feed was missing something

  • Haha that's insane, wow

  • Fair enough. But I also have experience living in Japan and using the trains daily. Each line is set and scheduled and if it was a minute late it either broke down entirely or there was an actual emergency. Commuter stops are also really quick, like a minute or two. It's honestly really nice

  • Yeah it's a real stretch to assume that the train follows the same tracks every day

  • Because people only want a simple answer they can pigeonhole into their worldview

  • False Knees? One of my favorites
