The article, while interesting feels like 3-4 articles copy/pasted together haphazardly

For me, it's the refusal to demontize them that's particularly bad. I can understand free speech absolutists (in theory anyways, in practice you'll find that they VERY rarely actually are and will happily censor people they disagree with like LGBTQIA+ or sex work content), but that doesn't mean you need to actively be funding them!

Substack says it will not remove or demonetize Nazi content

Quite a few organizations and lots of individuals are now starting to migratev away from it and if any of the money made by visiting goes to Nazis, many of us would prefer to avoid the place when possible.

Firing the people that do the work to make the company money is just good business! They're a dime a dozen, just hire another 2 managers and a couple marketing execs and soon you'll be printing money! /s [these companies are freaking dumb]

It's crazy what you can get away with when you have some money and no sense!

For the people that don't want to read the article, this seems especially relevant:
But much has changed since 2022: Embracer, which owns Gearbox, bet the house on a $2 billion deal with a Saudi investment group that fell through in 2023. Ever since, its many, many properties have been hit by layoffs on a near-monthly basis.

When I was a cashier, I'd tell people that and they'd respond that it wouldn't fill out the carbon copy, so they'd just manually continuing to fill out the check anyways and hold up the line :-\

With the machine filling out the checks, it's no slower than running a credit/debit card.

To add to your addition, Chris's Fix on Youtube has videos for a lot of the common things you'll need to do on a car & he also mainly only uses hand tools to try and keep his content approachable for the average person.

YouTube in general is a fantastic resource for stuff like this.

I mean, kind of ... I have file servers, download servers, documentation servers, syncthing servers, backup servers, vaultwarden servers, etc... that are all linux VMs/containers and my main machine is a Macbook, but I do still have a Windows machine in the living room for gaming (yeah, Steam has pushed us far in this regard, but, when I get time to play a game, I just want to play it, I want the best chance it's going to work the first time and that's still, sadly, Windows). I have another windows machine running Blue Iris as my NVR because I didn't have a good experience with Frigate, Shinobi or a few others. I've got a few other systems floating around that do various things and some of them are linux based and some are windows based depending on what's easier/possible.

I love when that happens though!

It's similar to Cara Gee being so awesome to work with that she wound up taking the place of like 5 book characters. Ty and Wes both rave about her every chance they get in the podcast. IIRC they've talked about Ashfords actor being fantastic to work with too.

Same, it's kind of a symbolic gesture since I apparently haven't used DB since 2018, but still, I cited them sharing files with AI companies as the reason.

Definitely enjoyed it!

The song was a bit shocking, but fun. The Doctor singing wasn't all that crazy, but Ruby doing it was. Hopefully they continue to show her being that quick witted in the future.

I'm not sure on the new sonic though. When I initially saw pics of it, I thought it'd be a bracelet type situation and that's cool, but that doesn't seem like it's the case and it just seems big and bulky. Time will tell.

I believe they're saying that Chipotle is helping OP by making it so OP doesn't eat there.
