Yeah there were some people who were so certain he would sweep the floor of that crowded primary, but then he was just so rizzless. He didn’t even seem to want to be there

That kept Ted Cruz out of the White House in 2016.

Don’t forget about forgettable no-rizz Jeb! Bush

…please clap

I’d also argue the ‘GAMES MUST BE ULTRA AT 4K144 OR DONT BOTHER’ take is wrong.

Some of the best games I’ve played have graphics that’ll run on a midrange GPU from a decade ago, if not just integrated graphics

Case in point, this is what I’m playing right now:

Sometimes I feel bad for scammers because I know how long it takes just to freaking reset a password on legitimate support calls at work (and usually that’s someone who’s put in a vague ticket saying “software isn’t working” so I emailed them a “I’m not a psychic” email with a link to schedule a call which requires one to schedule on the next business day just to finally talk on the phone and identify what they couldn’t write out in their ticket 2 days ago) but then I remember that they’re fucking scammers and often fully aware of what they’re doing

It sounds like in the above case the codes were real 2fa codes from his bank as the scammers were resetting their login credentials then adding an external account to initiate a transfer. Presumably they were simply reusing info from a breach to make the scam smoother

To be fair, they almost definitely smoked like chimneys and wore extremely toxic makeup, as one did in the 30s and 40s

There’s one woman whose extended social circle sometimes mixes with mine and she’s apparently only 35 but looks to be 50 due to excessive smoking and drinking. She always stands out due to her elaborately and tastefully dyed hair so I’ve started conversations with her a few times purely about her hair

Ehh honestly I suspected he and Melania were divorced in all but legal status since about 2017. Have you seen the super cut from around that time of him trying to hold her hand or otherwise show affection and her swatting him away?

I’m guilty of 8am yardwork, but mostly mowing in the hottest part of summer at the coolest part of the day. I’m also guilty of 8pm yardwork when it’s just the only time I can find to get it done. I only mow once every 2-4 weeks depending on how much my grass has grown, so I figure that balances it out somewhat

The Sims 2 had wonderful keyboard shortcuts for toggling walls and jumping between floors via Home and End and Page up and Page Down respectively and this was carried through to The Sims 4

The state university in the town I live in has a policy that freshmen must live in the dorms unless they already live within city limits (small college town, so the university literally has a student body of about 1/2 the permanent residents of the town)

If you buy a PC it has Windows on it. The majority of people are not cocking about formatting a USB stick and fiddling with the BIOS to put Linux on it.

And increasingly the majority of people don’t even bother to keep a PC anymore and just use their phone

Unless you run DHCPv6 (which really no-one does in reality)

Question for you since I have very little real world IPv6 experience: generally you can provide a lot of useful network information to clients via DHCP, such as the DNS server, autoconfig info for IP phones, etc. how does a network operator ensure that clients get this information if it’s not using DHCPv6?

IPv6 genuinely made some really good decisions in its design, but I do question the default “no NAT, no private network prefixes” mentality since that’s not going to work so well for average Janes and Joes
