They were a feature on typewriter keyboards back before personal computers were even a thing, so I think it's probably just that Sony didn't bother to put them on that specific keyboard.

I think you should go with something strong, like Powers, Kingslayer, or Grimaxe. Your enemies aren't going to strike fear into themselves.

Saying you don't like podcasts is like saying you don't like music. There's so many, made by so many people, in so many different ways, on so many subjects, that there's bound to be at least a couple you think are amazing. I mean, if all podcasts were just a bunch of dude-bros having a verbal wank into a microphone once or twice a week, then yeah, miss me with that shit. But a lot of them put a lot of effort into producing a high quality professional sounding show. Some of my favorites are 99% Invisible, which is a very well made show about not so obvious features of architecture and design; One Song, where they break popular songs down into all the isolated tracks and talk about how it was all put together; This Podcast Will Kill You, where they do well researched histories of diseases and toxins, their discovery, treatment, social impacts, etc; and You Are Not So Smart, which is a podcast about psychology and sociology. Other people already mentioned Behind the Bastards and Darknet Diaries, which I also listen to regularly. Chances are that no matter what subjects or hobbies you have a deep interest in there's at least one or two really well made podcasts about it.

I think I would have been a lot happier if I'd never learned that.

At this point I can only assume that Microsoft is actively trying to punish me for using their products.

All these fools trying to add hydrogen to water when they should be focusing on dechlorinating table salt.

Did the mushroom learn to control a robot, or did the scientists figure out how to connect a robot to a mushroom in such a way as to make the regular processes happening inside the mushroom trigger a set of robot legs? Because the article makes it seem like the mushroom is intelligent and has agency, and was thus far only lacking the proper robot body in order to express that; but the video makes it look like the legs were all pumping in unison, and the resulting movement was more or less coincidental.

This bullshit was basically my first experience with Windows 11 when I got a new PC last year. Literally, "Why is my internet so slow? What's this OneDrive thing? Oh, holy shit fucking stop Jesus Christ!"

Just automatically started uploading everything on my hard drive to an account I didn't set up, without even a prompt telling me it was happening, and no obvious way to make it stop. I didn't even know Windows had added a cloud storage option. I actually had to completely uninstall OneDrive to finally make it stop.

I might have liked having a native backup service in Windows if it was like, "Hey look at this handy cloud storage tool we've added to Windows! Would you like to pick some files to save?" But as it is, it might as well just be another piece of spyware.

There's a big long list of reasons why I hate Windows 11, but this OneDrive shit is the thing that's making me think maybe it's time to ditch Windows for good.

If this dude figured out how to lift a full size duty weapon out of a retention holster using nothing but a plastic dino-grabber then he deserves to keep those guns.

Student: "Hey, a shortcut! Let me first just walk around the long way so I can measure the length of the other two sides, multiply those lengths by themselves, add them together, and find out how much extra walking I've saved myself by taking the shortcut. Boy, this shortcut sure is saving me a lot of effort. Hooray Pythagoras!"

So the guy who notoriously despises public transit failed to come through on his promise to revolutionize public transit?

Wow.

I mean, who could have seen that coming?

I'm not surprised. I've heard stories as far back as 2015 or 2016 about people storming out in the middle of their pastor's sermon because the pastor directly quoting Jesus' sermon on the mount was too "woke."

Mark my words: if conservatives can no longer advance their cause under the guise of Christianity, they won't abandon conservatism. They will abandon Jesus.
