Ulysses by Alfred, Lord Tennyson. It always struck me as both humble and proud and it only becomes more meaningful as I age.
I was just trying to remember this today, thank you!
I hate the existing copyright system and would love to see it contested.
My brother in Christ, they’re literally contesting it
If you want to support local book stores, you can use bookshop.org. not sure how that affiliate outside the US though
I sincerely hope that shitposting saves us from the hell big Corpo has made of the world
Damnit I just unlocked the last one two days ago
The mechanics that are in it now are incredibly well polished. I look forward to future updates. Props to the dev
I’m getting Deus Ex vibes
Just practice for the human rights violations
This is true of most games.
It’s the radio, but you can access any station on earth that broadcasts through the Internet.
Pretty sure I saw this on JoJo
If I recall correctly, this would be an illegal order in violation of the Title 10 authorities which govern DoD activities if it took place within the borders of the country. I’m not a federal lawyer so I don’t know the details, but I believe it prohibits the armed forces operating under Title 10 from performing operations on U.S. soil. Title 18 however governs agencies like the FBI and allows operations within U.S. borders but prohibits foreign operations.
This is all a vague memory from an old lesson, but at first glance the attorney’s argument is utter crap. It boils down to “no act of the president can be considered in violation of any law.” Not a comforting sentiment, and a dangerous precedent.
Two years ago I became a first time homeowner. I’m moving in 6 months and am going to keep this property and rent it out. I cannot afford to buy another house almost anywhere in the US. I will be renting. However, I closed on this place with 3% interest and pay $1500/mo for the mortgage, plus about $250 for utilities. Round up to $1800/mo. Anyone buying at today’s interest and value with 20% down is looking at a mortgage of about $2300/mo, before utilities.
I absolutely resent this market, but I refuse to let this place go into the hands of anyone like Blackrock. And since I don’t care about maximizing profit, I can keep the rate on the lower end and help someone live here for a few hundred a month less than they could with a new sale. I can rent it for $1700-1800/mo to cover incidentals and repair and still let a renter live here for less than a new mortgage.
I’ve been toying with the idea of counting every dollar the renter pays against the mortgage and selling to them at the difference when (if) rates come back down.
Certainly not ideal, and a little bit apologetic, but in this situation it’s about as close as I can get to a win-win. Or least lost-least lost.
This is just Westworld.
I’m tired, boss
I initially wrote “opaque” and then second guessed myself, got confused, and refused to look up the correct use.
The digital landscape is so different. I teach undergraduates and it’s hit or miss whether they understand what a file path is. But honestly, I’m not sure it will be relevant in the same way for much longer. I grew up installing games from CD and establishing a specific file path and folder for install and if I did it wrong it wouldn’t work. With GUI’s becoming more simple and intuitive, combined with advances in machine learning and algorithmic design, I have no problem imagining a future where all file structures are transparent to the user.
I waited for a train for the first in years the other day and every third connex was a dark gray Amazon box with the blue smile. It felt surreal and utterly dystopian cyberpunk
