And when your Internet goes down, you can’t even work locally.
Genius!
I’m sure CoPilot in the cloud already took that into account though and goes off on all sorts of tangents with the user disconnected.
What could possibly go wrong?
Youtube link so you can get to the transcript and such:
Sega hired a junk removal company to get rid of dev kits and cartridges as eWaste.
Instead, they sold it to the guy who got raided.
Sega accuses him of buying stolen material.
Anemia brought me in for a colonoscopy in June. They found 17 polyps, 2 from the upper GI and 15 from the colon, but no cancer.
2 were large enough to be concerning, 20mm and 30mm and when I saw the pictures I was like “Oh, crap, THAT’S CANCER.” Nope, not cancerous.
But the rule of thumb is if they find more than 5 or of they are bigger than 5mm, you wait 6 months, come back, and do it again.
2nd time, 6 polyps, 1 20mm and full blown invasive cancer.
The photo also looked TOTALLY different from what I thought was cancer. All pink and bubbly, no black discoloration like on the others.
I just assumed when they pull something out of you that looks like Tetsuo from the end of Akira, that’s cancer, not so.
Looks more like:
“a Political Movement that is far smaller than people would think — But obnoxious, ignorant, and loud!”

“Holographic Storage” - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holographic_Data_Storage_System
Oh, look, it’s the latest mass storage tech that will never be commercially produced!
Can it really be an infringement if there’s no physical source though? That’s the question.
Say someone does an online comic strip, I download the images, re-format them for print, and sell a print version.
There is no physical version to bootleg, the only reason a physical copy exists at all is because I put the time and effort into making one.
Same with the “Calvin peeing on things” car stickers. King Features and Bill Watterson could absolutely produce those themselves, but don’t. Watterson refuses to license the character for anything.
At the same time, they also haven’t gone after the people who are producing them.
For gaming, lets say you have a title region locked to Japan but someone sells an unlocked pirated version.
Should they be able to sue for a product variant they very well could make but are choosing not to?
There’s the whole “no harm” rule, if they aren’t being harmed by selling to people who are not and never will be their customers…
No, but they shouldn’t be allowed to sue for physical piracy on products they do not produce physically.
If someone goes to the trouble of designing and printing box and disc art for a product the rights holder won’t do, that’s a problem on the rights holder side.
There’s a demand for physical, fill it, and make the pirate product irrelevant.
“Since Amazon has never released some of these Prime Video series on DVD…”
It’s almost as if the answer were right there…
While all that is true, at least in Portland it will be partially off-set by the need for added security.
We ALREADY see it as is with the paid system, it would just get worse in a free system:
Locally, our transit system gets most of it’s funding from a payroll tax on all the businesses in the Tri-County area (why it’s called “Tri-Met”, Multnomah, Washington, and Clackamas counties.)
https://trimet.org/budget/pdf/2025-adopted-budget.pdf
$62.4 million from passenger revenue.
$540.4 million from payroll tax.
The payroll tax is 0.8237%.
So…
0.8237/$540,400,000
x/$602,800,000
Solve for x…
0.8237 x 602,800,000 = 496,526,360
496,526,360 / 540,400,000 = 0.9188126573
So if we increased the payroll tax 0.0951126573, an amount absolutely nobody would notice, we could make our mass transit system here free.
That’s just the way elections work. There’s no process for changing things midstream and the Democrats are not in power.
Once the election flips the House and possibly the Senate, then we can move forward.
The #1 thing people need to do before November is organize. Get people registered, get people to vote. Make it clear that the Republican party is intellectually, fiscally, and morally bankrupt.
So the plan is to completely remove the sigmoid colon and then attach the end of the descending colon to the rectum. They also have to pull all the lymph nodes around the colon because if it gets into them, that’s stage 3 and chemo. We won’t know until we get the results from the surgery.
Fortunately we all have more than enough colon to go around.
March is colon cancer awareness month, wear blue and get checked! If it could happen to me, it could happen to anyone!
65" and it’s impressive with ONE drawback… Samsungs HDR implementation SUCKS. Suuuuuuuucks.
Without HDR, everything is bright, crisp, and clean.
With HDR, it’s dark, muddy, and unwatchable.
I’ve done all the firmware updates, RTINGS calibrations, NOTHING works.
Well, nothing except disabling HDR on every device attached to it.
I bought one on the premise of both PS5 and Xbox Series X releasing 8K content.
We got:
The Touryst - Not a bad game, but not needing 8K either.
Ori and the Will of the Wisps supported 6K, GREAT game.
On the PS5 Pro (through PSSR upscaling)
F1 24 (at 60 FPS)
Gran Turismo 7 (at 60 FPS)
No Man’s Sky (at 30 FPS)
Pure Pool Pro (at 30 FPS with ray tracing)
[REDACTED] (at 60 FPS)
The Callisto Protocol (at 30 FPS with ray tracing)
And that’s it…
Does it scale to other instruments? Violin? Piano? Ukulele? LOL.
I mean in the actual article, you would have thought one of the professionals would have dropped it. 😉
Nobody is going to drop the quote from Orwell’s 1984? (sigh) I guess it’s true, people HAVE stopped reading. 😞
“‘War is Peace’, ‘Freedom is Slavery’ and ‘Ignorance is Strength’”
The dodgy WiFi gear from my fiber provider requires a hard re-set at least once a week. I had to do that just today.
