Same. Have mine about 18 months. Never once connected to the internet. Great device.

Yeah, got some upset kids here but did manage to find a correct steam

Sorry. 200k people were on that. Scum. Everyday astronaut is the one I’m watching now.

Edit: that was some dirty link sorry

I did think that. :) It’s just… So good. I hope it never enshitifies. God help us.

For the uninitiated like me:

The Kessler syndrome (also called the Kessler effect,[1][2] collisional cascading, or ablation cascade), proposed by NASA scientists Donald J. Kessler and Burton G. Cour-Palais in 1978, is a scenario in which the density of objects in low Earth orbit (LEO) due to space pollution is numerous enough that collisions between objects could cause a cascade in which each collision generates space debris that increases the likelihood of further collisions.

Scalp comes from France.

Well I am delighted. €13.1B + the 1.2 in interest represents what will be a bump of 16% of total tax revenue compared to 2023 (€88B total). There are lots of things that money can be used for.

No worries. Yeah the article is great. They did go to some lengths to try to get to the bottom of it in fairness. Those BBC Verify articles are always absolutely spot on.

That all started from one news outlet that quickly shut it down but the far right ran with it like a baton at the Olympics.

BBC did a great BBC verify article on it.

I was put off until this part. Curiosity is now at high levels. Expecting massive hoop jumping and that’s always funny to watch.

It’s not just former POTUS though, it’s presidential candidate also. It honestly looks like a gargantuan fuck up.

Brace yourself…450 feet, not yards. It’s a reasonable distance for anyone with a good rifle, scope and experience.

Apparently the shooter was rejected from his school rifle club and asked not to come back.

Oh it’s on my to-do list. I’m just an ocean away. Closest I’ve gotten so far is Southern California but I’ll make it!

My wife and I currently have two plans for when we retire:

1. Tour the US by road with a focus on national parks
2. Take a year to tour Italy, find our spot and settle there. Olive tree essential. The kids and grandkids can come visit. We’ve been telling all the kids about this forever so they don’t get upset when it happens.

Texas with fireworks and alcohol definitely part of #1.

Happy independence day!

You make me want to visit Texas. They should sign you up for the tourist board.

the bad eye could see clear underwater he’d say.

Well that’s fuckin’ fascinating! I want an amphibious uncle.

Magnificent machine. I loved mine so much for so many years.

Or when your mobile phone was about to ring.

Oh wow. I totally forgot about those.

That’s correct. Jesus they were awful yokes but they were really mostly intended for letting you know that your hardware was bollixed at boot time.

PC’s had mostly been business machines really until the 90s if my memory is correct.

If you wanted gaming you got a more gaming focused machine like an Amiga or console.
