Depending on what he did in the military, becoming a cop might have been the only decently paying job he was qualified for.

I prefer wired for almost all cases. The reasons are threefold:
It seems like the only Bluetooth headphones being sold lately are either tiny individual ear buds that are easy to lose or big bulky over-the-ear headphones. Right now, my preferred wireless ear buds are connected by wires to an around-the-neck device, and I’m worried I won’t be able to replace them easily when they finish falling apart.
Wireless ear buds are one more thing I have to charge. I already have to charge my phone, watch, game accessories, and vape. I don’t need one more battery to manage.
Latency makes it obnoxious to watch video with wireless audio.
Right now, the only use case for my wireless ear buds is when I’m walking the dog and don’t want to worry about the wire bouncing around and getting caught on my clothes when I’ve already got the leash in one hand. The only reason I use Bluetooth in my car is because my old car had annoying feedback when I listened on the aux cable while the phone was charging. I’m considering trying aux again in the new car because the latency on the car’s Bluetooth is even worse and I’ve found myself watching videos in my parked car while on break from work.
At this point, I could honestly see a library being better for fact-checking.
Sid Meier’s Pirates
I have dozens of thousands of hours logged in that game, all because it’s so easy to get in to and so hard to get out of. Just turn it on, do some pirate shit, then realize it’s been hours and you probably should have eaten or slept at some point.
I saw all the announcements for Sync, and remembered that Sync for Reddit was my main app a long time ago. Couldn’t recall why I switched to Infinity.
Downloaded Sync for Lemmy today, scrolled past about 4 posts before a box showed up that said “sponsored content.” Now I remember why I switched.
ymfah is a mad genius, and everyone should check out his other videos.
I don’t even care about the people who don’t know which series is which. The whole joke is a fallacy to begin with, and I wish people didn’t actually think it was true.
It always seemed like red shirts were most likely to die, but that’s only because the majority of crew members wore red. Statistically, gold shirts have a much higher fatality rate.
The point of the dual boot is that you still have everything from before. When you turn on the computer, it’ll ask if you want your old Windows or your new Linux.
I started a clean Windows install a few weeks ago. Upon first boot, I immediately deleted the program files folder for Edge in an act of defiance to Microsoft. I then realized I had no browser. Had to ask my son to put a Firefox installer on a flash drive for me.
3 days later, I found out that winget exists.
Thank you. It was my first time hearing the term.
What does chaser mean?
Ah, I apologize, it seems I misinterpreted the top comment. I reread the thread, and now I see the link to an article about increased violence. I was looking at the thread by the context of the top comment’s text alone, so I was interpreting your comments as being about homeless people and drug addicts in general. I still don’t like the idea of prison labor as a solution, but your opinion makes a lot more sense when taken as a response to violent crime. I wonder if the other commenter in this chain made the same mistake.
Apologies again for the misunderstanding.
My hatred of blackberries is unending. I’m angry enough that I have to mow the grass, but there is nothing I loathe more than having to regularly take a machete to the encroaching mass of thorny monsters that are invading my yard and attempting to make it uninhabitable by my children. If I was given the option to make any species of any living thing immediately extinct, I would choose blackberries without a moment’s hesitation, and then throw a party to celebrate the oppression I’ve been freed from.
I think it’s a sincere question. Your comments so far have suggested that you support the idea that execution is an acceptable punishment for people who abuse drugs and then disobey orders from authority. I believe it’s fair to question whether there are lower levels of nuisance that you also believe the death penalty should apply to.
As for the argument as a whole, taking into consideration the cost of training and wages for the prison guards/riflemen/executioners necessary to employ this scheme and the logistical cost of moving these incarcerated laborers to potential work sites, as well as the low quality of the labor they could provide while going through withdrawals, I still think the $10 per day would be cheaper.
I mean, we kinda do, we just take in so much more inputs than we could ever reasonably put in a computer, over a much longer time period, and with processing done on those inputs that isn’t entirely understood.
I would think it’s because users only interact with their own instance. They would need to post it to their instance first before it can be forwarded to the appropriate community’s instance.
The main shift was that I now strongly prefer console/couch/tv gaming over PC/monitor/desk gaming.
This is the big one for me. My co-workers all wonder why I switched from pc to PlayStation, and I’m like, “dude, you just watched me troubleshoot 10 machines that failed our OS upgrade, and you think I want to come home and find that Windows update just broke my sound drivers again?”
Why do I accidentally find my wife’s keys in plain sight when she’s tearing the house apart panicking to find them?
