Nigel Mirage. Appears everywhere until there’s actual work to be done, then vanished completely.

Don does like it when people talk about him, but I doubt he could sit through four lectures

He even has his own private tropical island.

I don’t understand what the problem is

The Imgur upload page included posting it to their community by default as its final step. It wasn’t necessary to get a link but they didn’t make it clear for the longest time.

You could just upload to Imgur and get a share link, but for the longest time it would default to also post uploads to the Imgur front page. Most random stuff would only get as far as 'user submitted ’ before sinking into the depths, but anything engaging would get up voted to most viral and attract a lot of comments.

I used to be quite active in the Imgur community before the enshitification and it was always a bit of a meme the amount of random stuff that got into user sub unintentionally.

This comment is just wrong.

Obviously it would demand a hard swerve to the right.

Greedy publishers screwing over Devs, or a dev shoving unfinished slop out in order to get a bonus?

I can’t think of any instances of publishers earning the right to receive the benefit of the doubt, in fact it’s usually them rushing out shit.

Not familiar with either of the parties in this case but did get a bit burned with Cities Skylines 2

Same, I had mine bringing them home a few years ago.

One thing that always struck me was how 1990’s (and maybe earlier) the pictures were. It’s hard to put my finger on why, but they just don’t feel contemporary.

Reading is also woke

We save it for u wot M8?

As well as the other suggestions, was discussing this with someone just yesterday and they suggested filling the port with PVA glue (like the stuff used at school, not super glue or epoxy!) and a bit of thread, then pulling it out with all the crud once it’s set.

No idea how effective it is personally, when I got my current phone I got some plastic usb c port covers and that stays in place whenever I’m not charging, so far it’s done the job.

Because they shit themselves inside out and were no longer full of it?

A 5060 with 8gb will have Intel wringing their hands with glee. Whatever performance gains the ($300-350) 5060 GPU has (and I don’t doubt they’ll be notable) will be choked off by an 8gb framebuffer. They might do a 16gb clamshell like they did with the 4060ti but like you said, where does that leave the 12gb 70 card?

If “Learning from history” counts as education, I wouldn’t call it an uneducated guess.

If only Google had a working search engine before AI

Same, but Makita. My parents had a handheld Dyson, and it was a pain at times because they had to charge it when it died, or you found no one had charged it at the worst times. Because I always have a spare Makita battery it’s just a case of swapping them over and sticking the dead on on the charger while you continue vacing

Battery powered handheld vacuum cleaner. Though I’d only use it for bits and bobs and still use the big Dyson for most of the cleaning, but the hand vac gets used a lot more. Also, a spot cleaner for carpets/upholstery. I did expect it to be useful, and it means we no longer periodically hire a rug doctor, but i hadn’t appreciated how useful a wet vac is for spills, not to mention the time the dishwasher drain pump failed and I didn’t have to mess around bailing it out.

My favourite bible passage is the one where Moses goes to see Pharo, and tells him that the Jews are trying to form a union.

So, if someone were to crash the moon into the earth to stop it escaping, as many as 1/12 of the population could experience a reduced quality of life?

Might need to consider not doing that I suppose.
