On top of that companies used inflation as an excuse to raise prices higher than they should have.

Amen! For a backwater world seems that every important event originates from that dusty rock.

I assume it has to do with the fact that along the equator it's typically warmer and the equator runs through the northern part of South America. So if temperatures go up they'll go up there first and head north south respectively. I don't think they meant Souther Hemisphere as much as they mean Southern Mexico / South America.

Yes, but no. Cable didn't used to let you watch all seasons of a specific show on any given day and time of your choosing.

I also was initially very confused why Mario was upset about the rainbow flag.

It already does on my laptop. They also keep setting my default browser back to Edge. I don't use my laptop much anymore and keeping up with the BS of having to disable stuff I don't want running has become tiresome to the point where I don't even want to use it.

I know, I know, something something install Linux! Question I have there is my laptop is a gaming laptop so my question to all you Linux folks is. Can I continue to game using Linux. Will it work with my Nvidia Graphics card and Steam. If so I might consider it.

Yes I use TikTok. I don't watch short form content on any other platforms. I started on TikTok back in 2019. During the pandemic it was great. In the last year or so it's become a lot more TikTok Store ads. Which I guess was inevitable for a free platform that doesn't charge you to sign up or access it. Just like FB or Instagram they make their money off user data and ads. The only other problem I've had recently is it seems that they don't serve up the content of the people I follow as much as they used to.

The TikTok Algorithm is very tailored to what you interact with. So to me it's always very telling when people spout off what they see when they use TikTok. My For You Page (FYP) is all DIY, woodworking, funny dogs/cats, and married people humor. While my wife's FYP is dancing, new music/bands, and other funny humor.

It's a step in the right direction. But I don't see anything of substance coming from this. The U.S. has become a Corporate Oligarchy. Apple has enough money and desire to fight this through appeals and lobbying. Pay attention to who they lobby and make sure they are voted out of office. It's going to take a long time to correct what has happened over the last 20 or so years. It will require slow gradual change.

I have the first hammer I bought 20 years ago.

Test a small area of the laptop that you can't see to make sure the Goo Gone doesn't haze or discolor the plastic.

I swear I saw an article about someone whose tesla shorted out in the rain and they basically said you shouldn't have gotten it wet.
