I’m I the only one who has to pee more than expected when on mushrooms? For me I can’t deal with the nagging feeling and I just have to go.

"Recently there have been a number of reports about the plymouth boot splash not showing properly on PCs using AMD GPUs.

The problem without plymouth and AMD GPUs is that the amdgpu driver is a really really big driver, which easily takes up to 10 seconds to load on older PCs. The delay caused by this may cause plymouth to timeout while waiting for the GPU to be initialized, causing it to fallback to the 3 dot text-mode boot splash."

Cool. Now when I tell people that the UFO scene is a hot mess full of nonsense, I can easily point them to this and say “but there is something going on. I’m just not sure what to make of it.”

lol, anti-cheat isn’t just about esports, or high level play. It’s not even just about cheating.

It’s broadly about harassment and griefing and just shitty behavior mediated by hacking in online games.

I hope Michael Abrash gives his talk again.

The ones I’ve seen are trigger happy on labeling anyone who disagrees a bot.

It seems both sides are really into the idea that robots are discussing things with conspiracy theorists.

Interesting, thanks for noting that. I wouldn’t have guessed it was unique in the US. I woulda guessed the US was catching up.

This. And the reason the hearing aid stuff is even happening is due to rule changes that happened in (I think) the last 4 years. They loosened up definitions and requirements in light of the current tech landscape.

Here is a clip I edited together that I thought the sub would find fascinating. It's a little told story about photographing a UFO.

Clips are from Garry on Lex Friedman, and Ross's latest Q&A from this past week.

 

The records were not confidential, medical, nor leaked. They are publicly available law enforcement records obtained under a routine Virginia FOIA request to the Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office and provided by the office’s FOIA coordinator. Copies of The Intercept’s correspondence with the sheriff’s office are being published with this story.
