Minor correction: in a few billion years our sun will expand into its red giant death phase.
Also: our star can't go nova by our understanding of astrophysics. If it actually can, then we might need to throw out a lot of astrophysics, including predictions on when our star will expand.
Also also: the odds of the dice giving double 6s is MUCH higher than our sun going nova at any point in time even if it could go nova and was overdue.
Wow that's a huge variety of utility apps. And most people are used to granting permissions to apps at this point without considering since most have that pop-up.
Do you think people will just accuse candidates of insurrection willy nilly? I mean I bet Republicans would since they're trying to impeach Biden for literally nothing. But I don't think those will pass scrutiny. But Trump absolutely committed actions that could be considered aiding insurrection. Hense the 14th amendment cases.
They're trying to impeach Biden for literally nothing. They said they'll figure it out as they go. It's a literal witch hunt. They're trying to make impeachments mean nothing so that twice-impeached Trump can shrug his off.
They already declined Jack Smith's request to take this question up early. They clearly don't want to touch it. Unsure if appeals will cause these removals to be stopped or allowed to continue or not. If an appeal stops his removal, I'd bet that would be their goal.
And if that wasn't required and the hours were paid, it'd be no problem. Especially if they allowed people to flex their work times so working late nights was feasible.
-The breach window was roughly 1:30 PM-2:30 PM Eastern (1830-1930 UTC+0) on 12/25.
-Downfall is safe to launch once more, and has been since roughly 2:30-2:40 PM Eastern on 12/25 (1920 UTC+0 on 12/25).
-If you did not launch Downfall in the breach window, you're clear.
-If you got an automatic update for Downfall on 12/25 but did NOT launch, you're clear.
-If you launched Downfall via the Steam Workshop (meaning you actually launched Slay the Spire), you're clear.
-If you did launch Downfall on 12/25 and succeeded and everything looked normal, you're clear.
-If you did launch Downfall on 12/25 and saw a command-prompt like screen, that starting spitting out a bunch of text after about 10 seconds, you're in the clear. That was actually just the Java log which we usually keep hidden, but accidentally left visible when we restored the game.
-If you did launch Downfall on 12/25 and got a 'no .exe found' type of error, you're clear. That was us exploding the game to prevent anyone else from being affected.
-If you did launch Downfall on 12/25 during the breach window and got a Unity library installer popup, please continue to read. You may be also at risk.
TV used to be free over the air. Commercials were in-show. Often done buy the hosts themselves talking up a product. Pretty much exactly like YouTube and podcasts do now.
Then cable was invented and they charged for it. But commercials never went away.
Russia who can single handedly out produce over 55 countries including the EU and US in an actual War
Evidence? The US has the single largest military and military industrial complex in the world. By such a huge margin it's not even close. US spends 10x what Russia does. But sure, Russia can outproduce everyone at <1/10th the cost. That's in any way believable.
Meanwhile Russia is failing to invade a single country after years. A country it already invaded nearly a decade ago. It's really sad what the Russian trolls and sycophants try to get people to believe.
As a reader of a certain web serial, watching her deal with not being an innate magic user by using spell cards was very fun. That world didn't know what hit them.
Ah sorry. I try to not appear like I'm advertising. It's Pale by Wildbow which just finished. Modern fantasy with 3 girls as protagonists. Rituals, other-than-human creatures and spell cards are a big part of the magic system.
I've read them all and liked them all. They all feel quite different.
Pact is urban fantasy about a protagonist dealt the shittiest hand and dealing with that. It gets pretty dark but I really like the world it creates.
Twig is about kids at an academy in a world where alchemy and biology took off. To the point where grade schoolers creating Frankenstein's Monster would be a class project. It deals with flawed characters in a really unique world.
Ward is the sequel to Worm staring a very traumatized Glory Girl. Imo it's about healing and dealing with trauma and forgiveness. It's the toughest of Wildbow's works in part because he got a LOT of negativity during this that made writing harder. But I liked it for what it was and how it expanded on the Entities lore.
Pale takes place in the world of Pact but in the future with different setting and characters. 3 girls introduced to magic with a strong emphasis on the Others and how they and humans coexist. I think it's his best work so far and would suggest picking up here if something else doesn't strike your fancy. Wildbow has said he likes writing in this world and I think it shows.

A representative should do what is right, and that doesn’t necessarily mean what his constituents believe is right.
So lie to get into office just to do whatever you want? That sounds like a Republican. Ironic because it flies in the face of a what a representative is supposed to be.
Lemmy loves to hate on Chrome, and that's fine for those who know. But saying "it's Chrome" as a reason it's bad is like saying "it's Apple" or "it's Google" as a reason. It sounds silly because 99.99% of people are not going to know what you're talking about.
Thus, chrome bad = a very long list of offenses which are well documented to anyone with the slightest interest in the technical aspects of the devices and software we use. You are simply in denial as it is easier to not know.
I guess the implication above went over your head: yes I know all of that. My point is if you say that to a random person, you will sound silly because they don't care. "slightest interest in the technical aspects of the devices and software we use" is a high damn bar.
You can pick up 10 pairs of Levi’s that are 34x30 and each one will be different by probably over an inch.
Really? I'm glad I don't buy Levi's. I get jeans from Old Navy and they seem to be fairly consistent, at long as they haven't changed their styles like everyone does every few seasons.
