They’re like Maltesers

On desktop, you can paste images directly into the textbox.

According to the article:

But a former British Army munitions expert, who asked not to be named, told the BBC the pagers would have likely been packed with between 10g and 20g of military-grade high explosive, hidden inside a fake electronic component.

I don’t know what the actual truth of the situation is, but something’s fucky. I can’t imagine how Israel could plant explosives in those pagers. And overheating batteries would burst into flames rather than literally explode, so that would probably be mentioned somewhere.

Israel’s doing lots of fucked up shit lately, but I can’t see how this one would be their fault.

Because the insurance company already paid them way more than it’s really worth. And if the insurance company has agreed to pay that much, it’s because they’re making more than enough profit off their “service” to everyone that they can afford to pay it.

If your medicine used to cost $60 and now costs $5000 thst’s because the insurance company knows they can get that money from its customers.

Fast boot is just Windows logging you out of your session, then hibernating.

Sleep is keeping the computer in a low-power state with RAM powered on…

Both of these have been known to result in laptops powering on unbeknownst to their owners to perform updates and remain powered on afterward.

I live nowhere near the tropics. In fact, I live in a place where I could actually see polar bears and arctic foxes if I was so inclined. I like that they exist, but I don’t want them anywhere near me, as specist as that may sound.

How much you wanna bet that if this was an artic fox, or polar bear attack, the words inner city would never have appeared in this article…

Ok, that’s fair, but polar bears and arctic foxes aren’t known to frequent the tropics.

Windows by default doesn’t fully power off when you tell it to shut down. It goes into hibernation and keeps the network open for updates and will sometimes power back on to complete these updates.

If you want to fully power off, hold the left shift key when you click shut down. Or turn the power off elsewhere (eg. psu or power bar.) I’m sure there’s another way to do it, or to prevent the behavior entirely.

If you’re looking for a fun Youtube channel to folliw, check out Sorted Food. They do a lot of silly food challenge videos, but a lot of them have some really good lessons for the average know-nothing cook.

There is a link to buy a physical copy if you like.

You know you were gonna have a second serving anyway, may as well just skip the trouble and have both at once.

Interactivodular?

Ignorance is not stupidity.

Despite this being reported on tech news, most people won’t even be aware that it’s a thing because most people won’t actually read about it. And the majority of gamers probably don’t even know what a kernel is or why an anti-cheat with elevated privileges would be a bad thing.

Most people buy their computers with Windows preinstalled and probably couldn’t tell you if the CPU is Intel or AMD.

Ice dancing has been an event in the winter Olympics since 1976. Not just figure skating, it’s literally called ice dancing.

I’m partial to “j’encule,” which also would work in that context.

The issue is that customs agents have the authority to refuse you entry into the country for no reason if they so choose. Refuse to consent to a search and you could be refused entry. This includes simply transiting through the airport, as the US requires foreigners to go through customs even for connecting flights (I’m not sure if that’s always the case, but it has always been the case for me.) So they can’t force you to let them search your phone, but the end result is the essentially the same.

If you can afford it, sure. If it’s money that should be spent elsewhere, you might want to rethink it.

Quebec is somewhat independent, but definitely not ready for actual secession. Lots of natural resources, big producer of hydroelectricity, etc. But a significant part of its appeal on the international stage is its inclusion as a part of Canada.

The fact that it would also literally split Canada in two, with the maritime provinces separated from the rest of the country, would be a bad deal for everyone involved.

You have full freedom to install Windows, SteamOS, or even Temple OS on your Steam Deck if you so fancy.
