We should probably change it to “American style capitalism” as the behaviour seems to have either originated or mainlined in America first. But it’s seen in most global and domestic software companies around the globe today.

I don’t know that! AAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaa

This is getting out of hand, now there are two of them!

Going through some of those parts, chances are some of them are probably unsealed - though I suspect google maps will always generally try to pick the sealed roads.

As for petrol stations… Yeah keep a few Jerrys with you, just in case, as well as a spare full size tire or two (space savers are a bad idea in the outback) as well as a toolbox, with basic tools, hose clamps, etc. and plenty of drinking water/snacks. Maybe even a few packed lunches.

The nullaboar (Latin for “no tree”) plains along the coast of south/western Australia are well known for having the one long, straight, featureless Eyre highway with a whole lot of space Between petrol stations. The most dangerous thing about those roads is fatigue from looking at the constant unchanging scenery for hours at a time. The second is running out of fuel or breaking down - where you gotta hope you’ve got the shit to fix stuff, because it’s highly unlikely you’ll see a friend on the road for at least an hour or two, if not longer.

It’s so long that there are three designated airstrips on the highway designed for emergency landings and air ambulances (royal flying doctor service FTW - seriously, those guys deserve all the praise, true heros)

If it’s unremoveable its probably been installed from the beginning.

Our class party’s were always “bring a plate” type parties - parents would give the kids a plate of something to contribute

It was the best.

imma decline this. My town is in the midst of a heatwave. It’s too fuckin’ hot.

Also the only bike in the family is a rusty piece with flat tires and the gears perpetually need adjusting. The chain is probably in awful need of lubrication.

It was just a line…

A Taaag Line!

Sorry couldn’t help myself

Good point, I might have to check that.

I plan to get a second dock for it, and use it in place of a stream deck for when I stream.

Then it will be serve these purposes for me

• TV Media PC (my first dock is connected to my TV)
• Gaming Handheld
• Stream Deck
• A productivity “laptop” in a pinch - I don’t own a real laptop and don’t see a need to get one

(replacing the tired old barely adequate first gen raspberry pi+touchscreen I was using until a few months ago)

If there’s more than one zoom, it’s Mazda’s slogan

Hmmmm… no signs saying you can’t do some donuts with a rear wheel drive car in the rocky patch. That should break all the windows. It may also have the bonus of breaking nearby people too.

Yes it was, but in some ways Nintendo still succeeded In what I believe is their goal - to scatter the developers.

By shutting down Yuzu, they fragmented everyone into forking their own copies and competing to become the next Yuzu.

What’s more of a threat to them? One emulator with thousands of contributors, or 1000 emulators with 2-5 contributors each?

The best thing about open source is the pooling of developers and resources. While forking is neither a good nor a bad thing, it does tend to break up the developer pool.

It could take anywhere from months to years if at all for everyone to finally settle on a single fork and get back to the level of developer pool that originally existed - then if that happens, Nintendo can come along and do it all over again, at least untill they don’t see the value in continuing.

True just look at how long project64 v1.6 has been around

Go give it to Oscar the grouch, it could be his shiny new home.

Honestly, as an honestly pretty unspiritual Christian, Street preachers make me unnecessarily angry. Because it feels like they’re just bible bashing and aren’t actually doing anything to further Christianity’s goals, despite the fact they think they are. Individuals can’t win people over by shoving their beliefs down people’s throats.

I feel like the only people who listen to these guys are people who agree with them. Most people ignore them in my city.

Are you sure you didn’t forget a 0 or two?

A 7900XTX cost me AUD $1599 - and that was after a price drop from $2K

EDIT: I think I’m dumb… I think I fell for a joke.

Hm. Sounds like a very principled concept!

Also counts as a nutpost
