They’re upset about all the unused embryos that the IVF process usually creates.

Brother, have I got a solution for you!

Netscape?

I’m subbed to r/horrorlit and keep wondering if I’m taking crazy pills because it feels like 30% of the posts are some variation of “What’s the scariest/best horror book you’ve read?” They reword it or give it a slightly different spin but it’s essentially the same question over and over. And then of course the responses are always the same 40 books being mentioned repeatedly. I don’t understand why anyone who’s been on the sub for more than a month would keep upvoting the same question.

I think there was a golden 20 year era for learning basic computing. If you were a kid somewhere between 1985 and 2005 you had to figure out some slightly more technical things to use a computer. I’m late Gen X and so was exposed early on to the Commodore 64 and MS-DOS, but kids working with Windows 3, 95 and 98 would have developed similar skills.

I’ve tried Quest 2 once at a friend’s house. I thought it was pretty neat but nothing about the experience made me want to run out and buy one or even plan to buy one in the future. I believe that unless good VR headsets come down in price significantly (sub $100) they’re never going to be more than a niche hobby.

If you like feature rich apps then I recommend Podcast Addict.

I’ll be happy when, in the hopefully near future, I no longer have to see headlines about this nitwit.

I’ve been on Linux Mint for a few months now, and haven’t booted into Windows in like three weeks.

The transition has been relatively painless.

If I was stupidly rich I’d pay the entire fine to nullify the punishment to Gary. It isn’t about the money to Nintendo; it’s about making an example of him.

That’s some bullshit. I hate that they can do that. They spin it as a convenience but I’d rather update all my accounts with the new card manually.

Oh (buy) Brother!

It blows my mind that the 28 year old DVD format (720x480 resolution) is still being sold and consumed. I can walk into my local Walmart today and at least 40% of disks including brand new movies are on DVD. They look noticeably worse on even HD TVs (1920x1080) and no amount of fancy upscaling is going to make them look good on modern 4K UHD TVs (3840x2160).

I can get very close to 1 Gbit on Ethernet but top out at maybe 400 Mbps on wifi.

You don’t find the ads in Windows 11 valuable?

400 pages of “rusty razor blades”

I just upgraded from a 1070 to a 3060ti. The numbers definitely did not justify a 4060ti.

I’m not sure that’s true. I think they’re much more likely to be mainline evangelicals or Baptists (like the SBC) - more the dominionist types.

It does what you need it to do because it does everything. Podcast Addict is one of the most feature rich apps.
