    It's been a long, long time since facebook has been like you are describing.

    It's been ads, and old uncle facebook fox news memes for a while. Lately they've been filling it with AI pictures and bot farmed memes. Gotta admit the memes have gotten slightly better, or at least slightly more targeted as of late.

    Anyway, my point was, it's been shit for a decade

    I think in the context of why he said this was something like an interviewer asking "what would have to happen for cloud gaming to take off and see bigger numbers"

    There is enough to get mad about to waste time getting mad at imaginary things.

    Companies don't really use Debian or Rocky in widescale production because they have no support.

    Now red hat or ubuntu is a different matter.

    Honestly though this does point out that this is a pattern of behavior on crowdstrikes part. This should have been the canary in the coalmine.

    I got really hooked on Armory and Machine, there is an A&M2 but I've never played it.

    Its the kind of game that only has a mobile version, it rewards you for coming back to it like any bad mobile game, but there are no ads, nothing to buy, and I don't think there is any data shared.

    The premis is you are work on a machine, making it faster, better stronger, more automated, and more able to produce things. Things can be in turn, turned into items that let you travel and fight critters. The loot from the critters can be used to make your machine faster. Its all a vicious factorio-like loop, and show how fun these mobile mechanics can be when there is no company taking advantage of you.

    Remember the middle east? Remember vietnam? A bunch of poverty stricken farmers kicked our asses ground themselves against superior firepower, eeking out enough casualties to make an apathetic American public demand an end to the conflicts

    Just want to set the record straight because the idea of "Kicking the ass" of the US army with a whole lot of of the smallest weapon they issue is disillusional. The vast majority of casualties in the GWOT were IEDs

    I can't speak to curling, but in chess the womens' leagues are there to get women involved. There are no biological advantages at play. This is a 2000 year old game they were excluded from playing until 100 years ago. So someone could put forth a good argument that it's more about gender than physical sex.

    I wouldn't say terrible but mid possibly. It just took something that already worked well and added a little extra to it.

    If "thing2: the sequel" attaches a something kinda neato to the revolutionary, gaming landscape changing "thing1:the thingining" that doesn't mean thing2 is really better than something that significantly moved the bar.

    This is why Fallout 3 is better than Fallout New Vegas and I will fight you all over it.

    I think all sports aren't equal in this. The rules for MMA would surely be different than the rules for curling or chess. The people who control sports organizations usually have a life dedicated to their sport, and are in a much better place to make a call about it than congress or randos on the internet. This matter should be handled by them. The fact that anyone without skin in the game cares about this at all is a losing battle.

    Here's one I get a lot of flack for that I don't bring up much

    I think people trying to cook up gun control laws are targeting the wrong guns, in going after semi auto or military rifles, when they should be going after cheap handguns that have been available forever. The majority of gun deaths are suicides, and that's almost always done with a hand gun, but even if you control for that the majority of homicides with guns are done with hand guns.

    Hand guns are usually relatively cheap. They are very easy to conceal. Its very common for people to walk into a bar with a holstered hand gun and make a series of bad decisions. Its too common for people to get in road rage incidents that escalate into something tragic because of a handgun in the glove box. People leave them around their house and treat them as toys that kids end up finding.

    AND I would argue that handguns are not in the spirit of the 2nd amendment. They are not fighting weapons. They are for fun, personal protection, or making people feel tough without having to do any real work. They have little range and lesser power. There are are no troops in the world that deploy with handguns as a primary weapon. US military officers get them but that's more about tradition.

    Yes, I'm aware that shooting incidents done with rifles would be more deadly, but the fact there would be much fewer of them at all would be a net benefit in a society that banned or severely restricted hand guns.

    I don't think it's this "all rich jerks own commercial real estate" thing that everyone going on about. I get the feeling it's more about the managerial/director types. The ones who are maybe well off but maybe not quite rich. My director owns a 150,000 tesla, but I don't think he's near well off enough to own an office building.

    Anyway, at a certain level and upwards, all you do is meet and talk to people all day. They value face to face communication because that's a more effective meeting, and builds more rapport with the members.

    I have more time in rimworld but play both. Sometimes DF is nice when you can't be arsed to care about the people you manage and don't want to micromanage the way you really have to in rimworld sometimes. Plus there is no storyteller in the rimworld sense. You get more raids if you live near people who don't like you and I feel like that makes a lot of sense.

    Technical question: When to use Neon Belly?

    Hi, so for context I'm a 2 stripe white belt, and our school just did a 2 month series of classes on Knee on belly attach and defense. One thing I didn't quite glean from it is why would I do this vs mount? I if I have someone in side control and can throw a knee over them, I can usually do a full leg without much more effort, and mount is a much safer attacking position. So I guess what I'm missing here is when do you guys go into this position?
