Solar Opposites did it very well when they jettisoned Justin Roiland. His character gets hit in the throat with a dart and then zapped with an uncalibrated voice repair ray. His partner thinks the new (and suddenly English-accented) voice is sexy so they don’t bother changing it.

Also, new Korvo is way better the than slightly-altered Rick that Roiland was crapping out.

At least he isn’t making some exaggerated face of extreme surprise. That puts him ahead of most YouTubers.

Fantastic choices. Outer Wilds for me.

Which is still their right, with it being their network. The cost of using their bandwidth is letting them watch what you do with it. Don’t like it? Don’t use it.

It isn’t related. The manufacturer of the sensor package realized they could put a barometer in the package at a smaller cost than what they could charge for having added it, so they did. There’s no conspiracy except for the usual profit hunting.

The barometer is one sensor in a package of sensors that includes the health and fitness-oriented sensors. The permission grants access to the sensor package.

Note to anyone heeding this advice: it has to be a metal water pipe, no plastic.

Drives do this on their own.

Ah, the Harrison Bergeron school of parenting.

Your glove caught fire because you put it in a 350 degree oven for 15 minutes, when leather will readily burn at 210 degrees. I don’t know how other people are pulling it off, as googling around pulls up the same instructions you apparently followed.

I never believed them, because I feared it would catch fire.

Seems like you knew better, which must make this more frustrating. Nothing stings quite like a self-inflicted wound.

As for the Easter stuff, that’s really all about your personal situation and your belief system.

I’ve got a BeeLink N100 system that’s just a bit bigger than a NUC, has two 2.5Gb LAN ports and came with a 512gb nvme drive. Works a treat as a Jellyfin server with TONS of processor and ram headroom. N100 is a great little chip, so long as you’re not expecting i5+ power.

I agree. This should be called a honey sauce at best.

YOU’VE JUST MADE AN ENEMY FOR LIFE!

… How many zeros preceed that 9?

Don’t buy an information vacuum if you don’t want your data sucked up. Definitely don’t buy multiple generations of information vacuum from the same company.

You can use it as a firewall/router or a VPN gateway and even slap a wireless NIC or two on there and make it a combo router/AP, which can simultaneously play and transcode video as a Plex/Jellyfin server with zero hit to networking performance.

School districts buy Chromebooks by the thousands. Steam Deck is definitely paving the way in terms of demonstrating a consumer use case for Linux, but I would be shocked if there are even 1/100th the number of them in the wild as there are Chromebooks.

Yo man let’s not go crazy, $300 a year would be on the high end of acceptable for that. The costs to keep more data available when you own the licenses are quite low as a percentage of total operations, so keeping old content up should be the norm instead of something to be lauded. You don’t get a cookie for base competency.

Just like having something to protect yourself if you go to a sketchy area, make sure you only visit Reddit from behind a VPN.

Wait you guys don’t shave your balls to keep them smooth as eggs at all times?
