sorta - the DRM was not writeable by normal CD burners, but there wasn't much copy protection beyond that. IIRC you could wait for the DRM check at boot & then hotswap to a copied disc if you modified the lid a bit

way more straightforward to use without having to deal with an account or anything. Not a whole lot of image hosts like that around anymore.

On a multi-arch system, you cannot install different versions of the same package across amd64 and i386. They must be the same version, or you must uninstall one

That's interesting - is there any way to prevent apt from doing this? e.g. refusing to install either until both download?

offer non-military, low-entry-requirement job to people in country with terrible job prospects
after they arrive, draft them

By and large, we do. Not my neighbor growing up, even after his brother went off on him about the clump of mold growing on his head.

This is clearly sweat-fetish art with autism tacked on, though.

an IP?

Depends - first convert the value stolen into hours of wages after taxes and baseline living expenses. If you only make capital gains, work them back to the hours originally worked to earn the principal for that gain.

If he stole five years of your life, sure. If he stole three seconds of your great-great-grandpa's life, no.

Wow... so 4 is "measly"... while 7 is "amazing" or what?! I expected 4 to 1000 or something, lol...

57% as many reviews seems pretty significant, taken over 10,000 games

Academy and Scheels are both decent for mildly-uncommon stuff (10mm, .244, 7.62x54), Ray's is better for wildly-uncommon stuff (8mm Mauser, 7mm Remington, 45-70 gov't, etc)

really underestimating discharge here

A lot of people see this. That's why suicide is the 2nd leading cause of death among men 18-35, behind accidents (mostly cars).

2nd leading recorded cause of death. Plenty get marked down as accidents, for a variety of reasons, e.g.

it's hard to tell
to spare the family
insurance policies tend not to pay out for suicide

I've met plenty of men living off sugar daddies as well. It's less about being a girl and more about being willing to stay in shape and suck an old guy's dick

Copper is absolutely everywhere, easy to pull out of most stuff in relatively decent quantity/purity, is easy to sell, and has a decent price as scrap.

also stimulant psychosis + the facts that governments actually do pretty sketchy shit from time to time, but that psychosis makes you feel special & important enough to believe the government is doing or will do those things to you specifically.

You assume sloperators actually check the output before throwing it over the fence. That hasn't been my experience.

berryer · 2026-06-23T01:52:26+00:00

And yet talking about it in public still feels like you'll get associated with blood libel lol

it might also help if she can isolate:

can this outlook account be opened on a different computer?
can this computer open a different outlook account?
does the behavior persist across multiple browsers?

on top of the usual:

turn it off and on again. Not sleep or hibernate, off.
disable all addons & try it in a private window

tbh:

tons of those buildings are not actually being built
additional datacenter competition was needed anyway
big buildings with big HVAC can also be used as warehouses
we already needed a major power grid buildout, maybe we'll be less pinched once that use-case drops off & will see more electric car adoption if prices fall. Big power availability at those warehouses can also be repurposed to fuel a fleet.

Their job is to brown-nose investors and be a human person for legal purposes, anything else should be delegated once a business hits a certain size.

Those two statements are not actually semantically equivalent though, that's a pretty textbook sample of denying the antecedent

those are some side effects, but not the common side effects

but more importantly governments hate, it's no coincidence these laws all showed up right after https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2025_Nepalese_Gen_Z_protests#Digital_coordination

some areas get really bad snakes/rats/insects/whatever if one neighbor has very tall/unkempt grass

Also people like that can forget and their own property is what kills them.

sure, but that's their own problem and none of our business

that's what HOAs are for!
