I was in M2-XFE. That whole experience certainly taught a lot about the power of narrative and propaganda. And the later blockade showed what leadership failures look like.

We always had the advantage in that blockade, and could have stayed there for another year had the allies stuck together. Or we could have executed real plans to break them and end the war. Instead we did the worst of both.

You can get an old version of the software without the features blocked.

Yet.

They can sell colors and themes as DLC! Cosmetics for your home!

That’s reductive and wrong.

Keeping their jobs, maybe. Avoiding the accusations of “deep state”, no matter how justified they might be in taking action.

I would make sure the firmware can’t be updated. Uninstall the Hue app for sure.

After they make the change, someone with an old Hue bulb should go to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.

Making this decision retroactive is clearly false advertising and anti-consumer. I don’t really give a shit what their terms of use were.

They can do what they want with their future bulbs. The old ones need to be grandfathered in.

Yeah, that ain’t gonna cut it.

Burnout usually takes more than a few weeks to recover from, just fyi. Can’t say what’s up other than the public information.

Which is kind of weird because most C# devs aren’t doing games.

This is me, laughing at your comment as a bald eagle clutching an assault rifle flies over and shits simultaneously on my head and the idea of public transit.

Is she just starting college? A relationship with someone who’s not at her school might be rough for her. I’d be forever disappointed if I didn’t have those life experiences.

Yeah, there’s really nothing wrong with a 50 year old dating a 19 year old. Age is just a number. There’s no power imbalance there or expectations. It’s perfectly healthy for the 19 year old to get into a long term relationship where their partner is going to be 70 before they’re 40.

Or, maybe, half your age + 7 is a good rule. It’s pretty lenient.

Sure, there’s that. Also, sometimes I just write bad.

One of my last comments on Reddit was about this.

The biggest difference I’ve noticed is that people have stopped reading sentences. They’ll read all the words and then upvote based on the feeling those individual words give them. They won’t consider the meaning of all those words put together.

And yeah, “upvote does not mean agree” is something Reddit has always struggled with, but it has definitely had exponential growth lately.

It has made me start writing more clearly. There are comments I’ve written that have been wildly misinterpreted from my actual meaning. Part of that is that I tend towards sarcasm, and it doesn’t translate well over the internet no matter how absurd I get with it. But I’ve also started aiming to use more simple sentence structure.

New roof, solar panels, battery, EV, remodel part of the house, new siding, buy a small house in my neighborhood to function as a guest house, take care of my parents, spend a couple months in Europe.

Oh, you meant the rest of it. Government bonds are always good. You can also use more than one bank to expand the $250k limit (which applies per account type and bank). A trust, for example, is insured separately from your checking account.

Past that, I couldn’t tell you. Your financial advisor would though, just make sure they have a “fiduciary duty” to serve your interests.

Do you have a portable video camera that supports raid 1?

The use case for these drives is always a single point of failure. It’s camera footage out in the field. You have to get it home before you have proper storage.

Do you have a dashcam for your vehicle? Do you have backups before you get the footage home?
