AlternatePersonMan,

We should be so lucky. Plenty of games (and movies) already have ad placements. The NHL recently added fucking banner ads with motion to the boards. I can’t even watch that shit anymore.

Firefox doesn’t have an extension for that yet.

Fuck. Advertising.

AlternatePersonMan,

“Are you don’t yet? Why aren’t you done yet? Help me update infinite plans that will be outdated in a week. Also, I just promised a bunch of stuff… all that stuff we already promised, I think you can do that faster.”

When I was a dev, I once had a PM with no technical skills that decided he would “learn to program to help catch us up”… He did not succeed.

AlternatePersonMan,

My guess would be the PSU as well. It could be dead, or not plugged in right, or underpowered. Pulling out the GPU is a great idea. At least if it boots that provides some direction.

AlternatePersonMan,

That is a lot of money for a state.

In Minnesota, we raised sales tax for a county of 1.2 million people for 20 years to pay $355 million for the Twins stadium.

This money could fund schools, or public transportation, or just tax cut for the people that actually need the money.

Increase the millionaire tax.

AlternatePersonMan,

I dunno, but the dude dated a 17 year old highschool girl when he was 38. That’s gross enough that any school should stay away from him.

AlternatePersonMan,

That’s what I don’t understand. Don’t like Biden? I get that. Undying loyalty to Trump? What? Why? Just listen to him speak. He’s an incoherent idiot.

AlternatePersonMan,

Last I read, Microsoft had $80 billion in cash on hand. I’m pretty sure they have the resources to run whatever the fuck they want.

AlternatePersonMan,

What?!

There is a major chance this contaminates the food. It is very likely that this thing is still dripping unless it was 100% perfectly wrung out, which I doubt, especially since the person using it was dumb enough to hold it above food. There’s also the mentioned particulate falling off, which is pretty much a given if you’re ever seen a McDonald’s floor. Not to mention who knows what that mop was used for- an overflowing toilet in the bathroom, garbage water from a leaky trash bag, dog poop dragged in from someone’s shoe.

I have mopped floors of restaurants. They are disgusting. And they most certainly do not use > good> mops. Restaurants cut corners wherever possible.

AlternatePersonMan,

If you have the intelligence to realize you’re wrong and the strength to admit it, then you are better than most people.

AlternatePersonMan,

There’s easier, more effective battles to fight. People aren’t giving up their SUV’s, and they are a symptom of a bigger problem anyway. Good public transportation could eliminate millions of cars, roads, and road maintenance.

A few other ideas:

  • Coal power is disgusting and doesn’t even make sense economically anymore.
  • Cruise ships and mega yachts should flat out be banned. They use a ton of energy and dump sewage right into the ocean
  • Heavily tax gas powered lawnmowers. They have a surprisingly large environmental impact because they have no pollution controls and often burn a mixture of oil and gas.
AlternatePersonMan,

I have a friend who bought one 6 years ago. He paid like $6k for the feature and recently traded in for a new one because he could keep the self driving license for free.

He says it never really worked that week and is worse on the new vehicle because cheapskate switched from lidar to cameras to save money. Also, he has 3 of 5 “strikes” toward a ban, because your need to keep you have on the wheel and eyes on the road. That’s right, a creepy camera watches you. He says at least 2 are false positives.

Not exactly “Full self driving,” and Tesla doesn’t exactly look like they’ve been working on it

I have no idea why people still buy anything from Musk.

AlternatePersonMan,

Wow, I’m never even in the right ballpark on these. Huzzah!

AlternatePersonMan,

Surprised they didn’t do it sooner. That much talent on the Leafs and they’ve gone nowhere during Keefe’s entire tenure.

AlternatePersonMan,

At least you guys have hope. I’m a wild fan. I’ll tell you where we finish next year. A playoff near miss or first round exit. The same as every year, followed by another middling pick that brings us squarely to another middling season. Repeat.

Matthews, Marner, Reilly, Nylander, that’s a hell of a core. Not to mention the secondary pieces, and Knies looks like he has potential.

I would much rather have seen the Leafs move on than another Boston win. Barf.

Persistent Live USB Install?

How can I easily make a live USB drive that is persistent? My goal is to boot it through the boot menu (not grub). And just reboot to Windows for the few things I need on my laptop. I would prefer if my laptop had no trace of Linux installed. I found a guide, but it looked endless and needlessly complicated. Does anyone have a...

AlternatePersonMan,

He looks like Jim Carrey in The Mask after a kid need with the colors on the TV.

AlternatePersonMan,

That album cover is really cool. I’m suddenly very interested in that style… Never liked the band though.

And TIL about an ironic death. Ouch. That’s brutal.

AlternatePersonMan,

…And I will be watching that
