There's still a few hours to go..

I'm entering 40s and this doesn't sound normal to me. Get a second opinion if your doctor is writing it off. Don't get me wrong, as I got older my joints are sore and pop in the morning. My back can't handle some sports I used to enjoy. You're too young to be struggling with jars and shoes in my completely uninformed nonprofessional opinion.

Raising Cane's did this when they opened their store by me. They sent out mailers for free meals and stuff on opening day, the lines stretched around the block and they had police handling traffic. It's marketing fluff to make a ruckus in a new market.

Surprise surprise once people had to pay, I've never seen lines like this again there.

I remember this same spiel about Mueller, and the people rebuked trump then, yet still we are here. Again. At least Mueller had a reasonable argument with trump being the sitting president.

Unity's new revenue demands and that roll out blew it up. Not really the engine. They rightfully earned a lot of distrust.

All those examples (except MTV) is David Zaslav hard at work. So glad he's in charge of WB now!

Well, fair point. There is mutiny and defection as options. I understand the consequences for such a decision is certain death, in contrast to probable death on the field, though.

Why would it be a war crime? Just can't use the chemical payloads over civilian populations like Russia was during their initial campaigns.

Use of napalm also isn't a war crime, the context of targets is what makes it one.

I have a problem with my International Space Station 21321 set, all the blue clips that hold the panels to the main beams are crumbling, and weakened enough that I wake up to panels on the floor. I have no idea why this is happening, but hoping someone can help? Ideas I can do different to prevent it after I replace these parts? It seems to effect all the blue clips not just the big ones, even the little pod lost one of its solar panels :(

Some details, it's probably 4 years old now. I keep it on display but not under glass, in a 72f room. I have difficulty keeping it totally dust free as it's very fragile to begin with, but it's never really been touched otherwise.

Thanks for any ideas

Edit: not the technic connectors, the blue solar panel pattern tiles are the problem

I undertook a sizeable upgrade today, bringing a skylake era build into the 2020s with a 13th gen. All core components- memory, motherboard, GPU, everything must go... except the drives. We were nervous, my friend really felt we should reinstall. There was debate, and drama. Considerations and exceptions. No, I couldn't let my OS go. I have spent years tweaking and tuning, molding my ideal computing environment. We pushed forward.

Well I'm pleased to say it was mostly uneventful. The ethernet adapter was renamed causing misconfigured dhcp, but otherwise it booted right up like nothing happened. Sorry, linux is boring now.

Trump-Backed MAGA Senate Candidate Linked to Gay Hookup Site

Ohio’s Bernie Moreno is trying to blame someone else for his presence on the site.

The leading candidate in Ohio’s Republican Senate primary has been linked to a profile on a gay hookup website, sparking in-party fears that he could cost them the race.

Entrepreneur Bernie Moreno is one of three men running to face off against Democratic Senator Sherrod Brown in the fall. So far, Moreno is the front-runner, and his far-right stances opposing abortion access and LGBTQ rights have earned him an endorsement from former President Donald Trump.

But in 2008, someone used Moreno’s email address to make an account seeking “Men for 1-on-1 sex” on the casual sex website Adult Friend Finder, the Associated Press reported late Thursday.

I dropped my launch edition steam deck last night on carpet and while all the buttons still worked- something was rattling inside of it. After I opened it up I discovered a missing chunk of plastic from the R2 trigger, that piece presses against another to keep the button from over articulating. I suspect this trigger absorbed most of the impact, there was no other visible damage.

Of course I was upset that I broke it, but so very pleasantly surprised to find ifixit had the trigger in stock and reasonably priced. This availability made me love the deck even more, and really the fact valve made these parts available places the deck above any other competition in my mind.

This machine is built to last, I am so excited to get it fixed and get back to gaming.

Is there a way to filter or block communities from appearing temporarily, without unsubscribing from them? Preferably with a toggle?

It would be useful to hide posts from various sports communities when unable to watch a game live, or movie/game communities around big releases. This was an RIF feature and I really miss it.
