Honestly, have you looked at what’s happening recently. I think screaming is a reasonably appropriate response.

Put down the lube, and step away from Linus!

Didn’t Orwell have something to say about redefining words and phrases. Well, even if he didn’t, yikes.

Not likely for long time , but could be a sleeper in case things go sideways down the line. We are not likely to be making them at home as other commentators suggest… im expecting it to give arm a run for its money if politics gets really bad. The global south will likely make good use of it in that case. Also who knows. Linux was in this position a while.ago and that was an awesome surprise.

Scrollbars that are impossible.to use because they auto.minimize , and you have to get them just right to slide.

Is that a parallel port digital to analog converter? I remember making those up as a kid to listen to music without a soundblaster. Awesome memories.

Am I the only one struck by how much that image looks like a bezos / Zuckerberg hybrid?

It’s her own fault for getting all those tattoos.

" Well, shit, that didn’t go as planned"

Have a look at esphome. Esphome.io I believe. It should be a good starting point.

Teeth work too…

Cats in zero g are fun too. Somewhere on YouTube. I can’t dig for it now.

As opposed to normal?

All earthicans are equal. Some earthicans are.more equal than others…

Are you waiting for the hot cylons or the space battles?

You are of course correct. Especially as stayistics go. Everone has their own experiences and perceptions though. I should have expanded more, but I’m fuck tired from working night shifts. As I mentioned though, your mileage.may vary, and those affected would better be able to explain. I’m lucky in that it has not directly effected me, but then durban is pretty chill. Except when it’s not.

No, not the same thing More of a case of when white (usually) farmers are attacked the violence and cruelty is excessive compared to what you would expect from normal robberies. Technically its not political, but there is a lot of hate there. Think more along the lines of how racist white Americans sometimes treat those of darker skin tones. As with anything, your mileage may vary depending on where you are in the country. Individual circumstances vary. Those effected may be biased, but they are in a better position to describe their situation, assuming they survived. *edit: I should also mention that yes, it is mostly blown out of proportion. Media will do as media does. And of course there will always be those pushing agendas. South Africa does have a crime rate and perceptions are often skewed depending on upbringing ging and circumstances. Sorry I did not.make this clearer initially. Read surfer dudes reply, and also check context against online resources.

The saying “like watching a train wreck in slow motion” no longer seems to apply. Nothing slow about their actions recently.

I agree, someone competent can do it risk free. One possibility, depending on how macguyer or prepared the character needs to be is to use pogo pins. Perhaps magnetically held in place.

In politics, facts rarely matter.
