Helium shortage actually. And yet we keep wasting the stuff on filling party balloons. 😞

My laptop refuses to go beyond 30hz on 5120*1440, so Wayland and X11 both feel laggy. But at least X11 is stable, can’t say the same for Wayland, no matter how much I want to like it.

Rammstein: Feuer frei!

Damn, that morning coffee hasn’t kicked in yet. Even despite the context it took me a few seconds to realise you meant Secret Service, not Schutzstaffel. Although the latter feels awfully appropriate when we’re talking about Trump.

RIP my LG robovac. Dutifully cleaning and mapping my house without having any kind of wireless connection ability whatsoever. Until it mistook my stair for just another dark corner. 😭

Somehow in my mind he’s still in his early 60’s. I just can’t wrap my head around the fact that he’s 80 years old already, guess I’m getting old myself.

Guns kept in a car usually aren’t required to be locked up if the car itself is locked.

Common sense requires it if there is a chance you’ll be leaving a toddler alone with it.

If it’s written in the law, it’s lawful. You can of course (and should!) debate about the morality of the diverse forms of lawful interception, but a blanket statement like ‘“lawful interception” is a fallacy’, is a fallacy in of itself.

Dude… Don’t put your dick in crazy. 🫤

I completely agree that sex crimes cannot be tolerated. So, when can we expect those apologies for forcing women and girls into sexual slavery as ‘comfort women’ ? 🤔

Here in the Netherlands we don’t have a 7-11 (as far as I’m aware), so anywhere else it is.

As in: it just self-propelled itself sky-high?

“Kids are stuck in a flooded cave I know nothing about. I can build a little submarine. Expert tells me that won’t work. So he must be a pedophile.”

That does depend on the cheese, ricotta and mozzarella for example do contain lactose (enough to cause me quite some discomfort unfortunately). And processed stuff which shouldn’t be allowed to be called cheese may contain amounts that spell instant doom for the guts of the lactase deficient.

Unreal only had a single Automag though, so either you are thinking of Unreal Tournament or you played on a modded server. Some servers did have dual automags (I’ve still got a mod and mutator lying around to get them in single player as well) and dual Automags (Enforcer in Unreal Tournament) did indeed dish out major punishment.

This doesn’t even faintly resemble German, so I doubt that.

Guess there is an argument to be made for the increased power and torque being a bad thing, together with the extra weight of battery packs EV’s do cause a lot more wear and tear of the road surface. But I highly doubt it offsets the pollution created by ICE’s.

So good job by the dutch?

Yes, if this was Dutch. It isn’t though, looks like Afrikaans to me.

Yes, how could I forget Deus Ex. Incredible story and again such a wonderful soundtrack, not surprising as it was also composed Alexander Brandon, Michiel van den Bos, and Dan Gardopee.

As for Half-Life, that game was also something else. But part of me resents that game a bit because it overshadowed Unreal. 😋

The original Unreal. For me it was a perfect combination of beautiful graphics (back in the days of course) and a soundtrack which complemented and elevated the atmosphere of that game. And the gunplay was nice, with a collection of somewhat unconventional weapons. A relic from a time where developers were not afraid to experiment a bit.
