Only reason to choose Authy over anything else tbh. This just basically killed the product.

Personally I down voted once I read that somehow one of these laptops are on par with a high end gaming PC which is simply not true at all.

Exactly this, it's basically GTA5 private servers with fully customised game mechanics and strict rules around conduct where you're playing a character in a realistic setting, like an actor of sorts. It's big money for the people who run these servers too, especially NoPixel which is the most popular streamer server and difficult to get whitelisted on.
Rule breaks, for example not fearing for your life and acting appropriately when in a dangerous situation are potentially risking a ban. There is a full set of laws and police, judges, lawyers and a whole court and prison system modded into to deal with criminals with players roleplaying all of these roles. There's a hospital, ambulances, doctors and you have to get someone else to call 911 to have a paramedic drive out and rescue you if you die.
It's honestly impressive how much and well modders have modded GTA5 over the years. If you wanna try it yourself download the FiveM client and there are hundreds of servers you can join and play on.
Be warned though, just like older games with private servers (like old Battlefield/CS ect games) you are ultimately at the mercy of whoever the admins who run them are and sometimes these can be interesting individuals. Rockstar recently bought out the FiveM platform but they have no real control over what these private individuals do short of banning the whole server from the platform which rarely happens.

Ubuntu is fine as a gateway drug imo. It hasn't made the best decisions over time though, but I appreciate it's contribution regardless.

As a 40 year old dude I don't think I'd be setting my age range to that upper bound if I were to be divorced. More like 35 and that's with large caveats.

Most people have to try really hard it fit into the world, even those who don't have Autism. What you see especially online is their highlight reel, what they don't show you is all the stress and effort it takes them to fit in and keep up with everybody else.
The good part is that once you're aware of the above it's easier to just do your own thing instead of trying to fit whatever you perceive as supposedly normal.

That kid is now known as the kid who got Roblox banned among their group of friends, not a nice thing to known for. This will be seen as a punishment by them regardless of how you frame it especially once the other kids at their school become aware of it.
Ouch. Good luck navigating this one as your kids get older.

Seems inefficient, one should just integrate ChatGPT into Bash to automatically check these things.
You said 'ls' but did you really mean 'ls -la'? Imma go ahead and just give you the output from 'cat /dev/urandom' anyway.

Several local (but national chain brand) furniture stores.
So many reasons. One had better quality furniture on display than what they sold by a long way. Another tried to give me not one but two firm mattresses instead of medium and lie to me about them. Yet another got caught out blatantly lieing to my face about delivery times and procedures.
All of them had great customer service right until the point that they had our money and then completely treated us like garbage afterwards.

Exactly what's about to happen to employment services in Australia too. They spend more money chasing a hand full of people who don't want to work than just continuing to pay them the pittance they exist on and have people apply to be the CEO of huge corporations who dropped out of high school in order to make their quotas. Government just announced an inquiry with the aim to reinstate control over it.

Australia is a live example of the fact that they're not. The state and federal governments have privatised a crap load of services and all they do is continue to hike our bills while providing less and less service. Electricity, water supply, employment services and more are now an absolute joke here.

Sounds like the Taiwanese police were under some pressure to make a big bust so they pulled out a box of cheap cables they acquired from the local markets and made up some public service maths to look good.

It took some umm training to get to this point though and I think the film industry is just making the same mistakes.

If you had super powers you probably wouldn't have to steal anything or commit crimes to be rich. You'd just make money the same way people like the Kardashians do or worst case sign up to some sporting team and absolutely trounce everybody else then sign endorsements.
