Tangentially related, Disney’s push for live content in D+ plastered the orange one’s butthole mouth all over the Home Screen around the time of the inauguration because of their news channel feeds. It’s happened other times since, but it was a permanent fixture for a few days near the end of...

If it wasn’t so utterly sickening, the irony of the GOP (who have been screeching about puberty blockers being chemical castration/mutilation in their anti-trans bullshit) hiring a guy who worked with his father risking actual chemical castration on children in their inhumane attempts to create...

Was the reporter’s name anything close to Vladimir Putin? Perhaps they accidentally added the wrong person when searching their contacts in signal. (/s, mostly)

It’s all about the doodads. Cactus Canyon is so good, definitely rates super high for me. Some of my other favs are White Water, Junk Yard, Tales of Arabian Nights, the aforementioned stone cold classic Medieval Madness, and one my all time favorites Champion Pub. Tables with good doodads tend...

Never heard of this pinball system before, and haven’t seen it the wild either. At first blush, I’m not a fan of the empty lower half, that’s such a crucial area for action in a pinball table and it being so sparse definitely seems like it would away from the experience. That being said...

FWIW, I’m an ‘81er and no historical health care records beyond the last 15~ years I’ve been with my current provider. I reached out to my doctor, they ordered some blood tests for me and determined a booster wasn’t necessary. My partner, who is a few years older than me and similarly lacks...

Whitehouse vs. White House, this weekend on Pay Per View

OK, rebooting my vCenter server forced it to sync updates, then checking for compliance again after the sync finished finally revealed the updates for me. FYI, the first check compliance I did after the reboot processed while vCenter was still synching updates (progress for both was in the...

Do you use the Life Cycle Manager or just the default/older style updating system? I hadn’t setup the Life Cycle Manager, but I am considering it to see if I can use that to jumpstart the patch. Not sure how to force it to check against their servers for the latest patches beyond just running...

Sure would be nice if my vsphere would show this update… been checking all day, bupkis.

It truly boggles my mind that for being the premium brand of laptops, the M series chips are woefully behind most other laptop chipsets from the last 10-15+ years in regards to external display support. In anticipation of shit goblin’s tariffs, I bought a nice M3 MB Air around the end of the...

For a moment, let’s assume that the bean counters implementing these systems are right about the productivity and further that these systems actually curb these so called “wage theft” issues. I bet my boots that amount of money that is “saved” by these systems will never come even remotely close...

But long rambly paragraph man who’s using appeal to authority fallacies just told us that covid mortality rates are a lie and we just need to not be a “lazy fat ass” and we’re good to go, without linking to any legitimate studies or otherwise proving anything they’ve said… I don’t know who to...

Fair point.

The last week or two, it seems like many substantial news sites (and lots of really sketchy ones) have all been running a story about a rare syndrome caused by the Covid vaccine. If you dig into it at all, you’ll find that the people behind the study have said that it’s still super early in the...

We’re 2/2 of it being forced back on in our household. For a long time now, iOS updates always try to get me to turn on Siri after first boot, but it’s at least always give me a ‘Not now’ option to skip it (and then later I have to go into settings and half set it up to clear the red...

A few years ago I got addicted to this game, Castaway on a Weird Island https://captaingames.itch.io/castaway This article about Dragonsweeper reminded me about Castaway, though it’s definitely its own thing. It’s a little hard to understand without playing it, but it essentially combines a...

Slight side tangent, but I am reminded about it by the "unleash America’s energy potential" quote. Sad state of affairs that recently the most blocked domain in my Google News Feed is .gov sites. In the last several years, I can barely think of any times that I’ve seen press releases directly...

Filed under “D” for Duh. Fuck I hate how the bean counters and dudes with massive golden parachutes strapped to their backs have been using RTO policies as soft layoffs, seemingly in part to dance around rules that were put in place to protect workers against mass layoffs. Definitely not...

Awesome! Glad you wrote a piece about this. I linked it in the comments of the AI poisoning article the other day, partially in hopes it would be picked up. Fascinating video, and not just for the AI poisoning, also just a really interesting look into the world of subtitles.
