I couldn't believe how much of a dump the place was honestly. Shit is being held together with duct tape, zip ties, and free veteran labor.

And the DOGE boys will see that and use it as evidence they deserve even less, ratger than seeing that's what things have been reduced to due to budget cuts.

Pee is stored in the balls, and... blood is stored in the boobs?

for whatever reasons

Until recently, one man, who ran from the sinking ship of Yahoo search into Google's marketing/ads group. He bullied the former head of search out when they refused to make search worse in order to boost the ad click through rates. He then became head of search himself until fairly recently.

In depth writeup here, and there's a link to the same story as a podcast at the top.

This is entirely on brand for him. Entirely. It's kind of frustrating that somehow his idiotic business decisions managed to keep his terrible beliefs out of the public discussion. Did you think he was so into Mars colonization and space travel on a lark?

Sounds like a good case for brute forcing the filenames. Just do the proper thing and don't leave your cloud storage publicly accessible.

I don't like subscription based software, and a subscription based game launcher is even more ridiculous. Especially when there are already free open source alternatives.

With the subscription aspect in mind, this reads to me like an advertisement rather than news. Probably because you just pasted in their literal ad copy instead of giving us any of your own thoughts about it whatsoever.

A big part of why I'm on lemmy is to get away from the "natural engagement" ad posts, so in short this sort of post isn't something I want to welcome or encourage.

Personally, this post would have come across a lot differently if it was just the link to their site/blog post and even a few sentences about your personal thoughts on it. This comes across as a poorly done ad.

You didn't "just share news". You just shared an ad with effectively no further context.

They have a deal with Google to allow them to index it. As long as Google stays on top reddit will still be searchable for the majority of people.

Windows should have a built in Print to PDF option under printers you can use in conjunction with the print menu to "print" individual pages to PDF.

Some alternative options: there are many many new tab page extensions you could try for a different look/layout, or you could put together your own basic html page of shortcuts and set it as your new tab page.

The Christian Bible considers rape to be a property crime.

Got any specific verses to cite for this? It's brought up often enough, but I've rarely if ever seen the source. I have a strong feeling that's from the old testament, of which many Christians ignore the "laws" due to the events of the new testament.

Promise I'm not trying to sealion here. It's just that these are big claims that I've not seen reflected first hand in my 30 plus years in and out of Christianity.

I'm also going to softly remind everyone that the old testament writings are also foundational to Jewish faith and Islamic faith, which is consistently left out of most of these discussions of the ills of religion.

Edit: So sealioning and whataboutism, I'm on a roll!

One of my favorite stories to embarass my wife is about how I lent her a book after our second date. Dirk Gently, after I saw Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy on her shelf.

A decade later she still hasn't gotten more than two chapters into it. At this point she says she can't break her streak. Says that wanting my book back has kept me around this long and she's not about to ruin a good thing.

We'll gloss over all the other books I've bought her that I end up reading first.
