Below is a look at the most exasperating news from streaming services from this week. The scale of this article demonstrates how fast and frequently disappointing streaming news arises. Coincidentally, as we wrote this article, another price hike was announced....
This y axis placement is quite common for stock tickers. I suppose it is intended to make it easiest to see the most up to date price, which is the pertinent information for most readers. Similarly, the y axis starting at zero is conventional wisdom for scientific data, but I suppose the most relevant visual for stocks is the price fluctuation, which is best viewed with y autoscaling over the selected timeframe.
You are dead on. That post absolutely fucking reeks of AI. I want to say if you can’t smell it a mile off you’re an absolute cretin, but there are probably millions of people who’ve never really spent much time with LLMs and would be easily fooled by this garbage

I tried Waydroid on Arch and its amazing. It runs Android apps flawlessly. And with a touchscreen device, I feel like I have an Android tablet running inside my Linux machine....
Hi all, I have an old surface SP7 that I want to wipe and install linux on. I’ve been having fun playing with Waydroid on my other machine, but it is running Mint and the wayland implementation is not very mature. Obviously for a touch screen device being able to run android apps is really beneficial....
Thanks! I actually decided to give up on Blend and try Nobara, which integrates the required surface kernel changes out of the box. I chose the version with KDE Plasma 6 Wayland, and have had no bother getting Waydroid to run. I’m actually having a blast using a machine with full Android and full Linux functionailty
I think another issue is that when telling the Avatar story, all the main characters are necessarily children, and the themes of the show require some really hefty acting chops to deliver lines convincingly.
I can’t fathom why they didn’t tell a new story in the Avatar universe, or at least remake TLoK where the main cast are a bit older.
Comcast says it represents a 10 Gigabit cable internet network they are building (it doesn’t exist) so they are basically changing the meaning of the g from generation to gig to act like 10g is 5 generations better (or twice as fast)…or that they have a 10 gigabit network. Neither is accurate. It’s still just cable...
These are all Tiktok slang, as far as i understand. Accountants or ‘spicy accountants’ are Like strippers or Sex workers? The inside joke is that its such a boring job that if someone asks what you do, and you reply accountant, you won’t get any follow up questions.
Unalive is slang for suicide, I guess videos with suicide in them don’t get promoted.

Hey guys, I’ve been running Mint on my home computer for a little while now and I’m having a great time, however there’s one behaviour from Windows I’m missing. When you hit win + arrows to snap the currently focussed window to the left or right half of the screen, windows will present a dialogue to select a companion...
I’ve got this now, looks pretty cool, thanks! Gonna keep looking over the documentation, but I can’t quite see the particular behaviour I’m looking for. It has the snapping (and better options than Win10), but I want to be presented with the list of other available windows for snapping on the other side.
I’m not tied to anything at this stage, but I don’t have a lot of free time for trying different stuff. Can I install this DE alongside cinnamon, like I have with i3?
Thanks! I’ve seen this phrase before when hunting around some other forum posts. How can I check this? I assume on my router or on the access points? I can’t see anything in the Deco app about this, I found this link that suggests it might not be supported?
Thanks for the advice. Is there a certain YAML file or something I should be looking at to check this? I installed via portainer and haven’t seen any of the configs this time around
