18yo me would be living in the early 2000s; any of these would set me up for life: “Bitcoin hits $100K” “Buy Tesla shares” - this also would work for any of the big brands Netflix/Nvidia etc.
But this one would probably change my life in a much more meaningful way: “Don’t lose her.”
Not sure if you’re naming an adapter, or badly trying to coerce a cat to come closer.
It’s all the same woman: Stephanie McMahon
Beyond just the pedophilia, his (Epstein) operation was largely one of socialising, and securing (probably coerced) introductions from people he helped facilitate and now held blackmail over.
e.g. using blackmail material on a Bill Gates to secure an introduction to another wealthy and influential individual, offering them a “massage” and then producing kompromat at a later date to bring them into his circle.
Now don’t get me wrong, everyone who found themselves in this position was a willing participant, not a victim - but I can understand how so many oligarchs eventually found their way into his little black book.
Technically, 1000 beats per day - but yes, Swatch tried this back in ‘99:
My bad!
How could I literally forget Sega’s last, beautiful disaster? 🤦🏻♂️ I spent so much time playing Street Fighter III: Third Strike on it back in the day…
Not just NES; games were largely designed with CRTs in mind all the way through PS2/Xbox/Gamecube console generation!
Legitimately would love a decent CRT TV (and room for it) to be able to authentically play Point Blank again - light gun games of that era only work on CRTs.
There are apparently OpenVPN profile you can import, but as I said in my earlier comment - I just couldn’t get it to work (connection attempts would just time out).
I still have like ~18 months of PIA left (joined under a 100% cashback offer), but will likely switch to Proton or Mullvad afterwards - as they both seem to work better under Linux from what I’ve read.
I’m sure over time I’ll tinker more under the hood over time, but for now - I’m just trying to ease myself into Linux with pre-configured installers when particular apps aren’t available through the Cachy Package Manager.
30-odd years of Windows usage has dulled my IT skills!
I barely know what I’m looking at! 😅
Pretty sure I tried poking around that file on Bazzite also to see if I could locate the RPM to try and do a manual terminal install - but gave up after a few minutes.
Sample size of 1, here.
Bazzite was my initial entry-point into Linux, but I bounced off it within 48 hours as its immutable nature made it impossible for me to install the native PIA VPN client and for the life of me I couldn’t get the OpenVPN to play nice.
Currently on CachyOS, and seems to run just fine - giving an end user just enough rope 😅
Plus it’s Arch underneath the hood too, so I can still cheekily say that I run Arch!
ETA: I wonder if/how long I would count as part of this Bazzite cohort?
I’m in a similar boat, our next TV will be a commercial display if I’m not confident that we can successfully air-gap the TV.
Something like this, ideally: https://www.lg.com/au/business/information-display/oled-digital-signage/oled-pro-monitor/65ep5g-b/
Looks like it’s from Dango, based on the design elements: Dango Products
Looks very similar to Dango, they have a bunch of similar metal framed, leather bound wallets.
Somewhere out there is a parallel universe where Al Gore won the 2000 election, 9/11 never happened, and Donald Trump is best remembered for his multi-award winning, 10 season syndicated TV classic - $h*! My Dad Says, before tragically dying on the toilet with a hamburger in one hand and his cellphone in the other.
I drink two beers in the morning, I drink two beers at night, I drink two beers in the afternoon, and then I feel alright!
I drink two beers in times of peace, and two in times of war; I drink two beers before I drink two beers, and then I drink two more!
My friends say I have a drinking problem. A drinking problem! What drinking problem? I drink, I get drunk, I fall down. No problem!
…and the world was a better place for it.
My out-of-date ass thought this was a Ghost in the Shell reference:
Millionaires billionaires.
It’s a dick-measuring contest from more civilised times.
It was rough, back of the napkin math - primarily intended for those in places where EV disinformation is highest (the US).
Those of us that primarily use metric are more than capable of roughly converting in our heads as required! 😅
Hey, asking for a friend…
But does anyone know of a clip-on LIDAR emitter we could wear? Those things absolutely burn holes through digital camera sensors!
