WD40 isn't a lubricant, it's for "Water Displacement." While as a liquid it can be used as one, it is a poor one. It's whole purpose is to cover a metal part with a hydrophobic layer. It's good at removing water from something like your sparkplugs. Maybe they thought water had gotten in and was causing issues with contact?

It's Spiderman...he has an established alignment. I don't know what you are on about.

You are probably right. Devices like these in the old days used to require you hook up an official controller to it to get past the drm. Likely will evolve back to that.

Search xbox mouse adapter on amazon. There are so many products that do what you describe people wouldn't care to do because they don't care.

Or barred because he literally posted a literal dick measuring picture to twitter. Or that he ran off Bootsy. Or that his drunken antics were always causing problems. He's a problematic guy even without considering the racist comic.

Too bad lots of people stay friends with shitty people, I won't fault James for that. It's hard to cut them off once they are already in your life.

At least they separated professionally for the most part(I think Mike has shown up in costume uncredited in two recent episodes, and James has joined a stream or two of Mike's when hanging out with him)

I think the big issue is that joking about school shootings is satirical to bring up how common it is in hopes to change it, while joking about fat people is just to be mean. No one is going to change because you made fun of them, in fact it might make the problem worse as state of mind is a factor in being unhealthy.

You could probably make the same argument about abortion jokes being satirical, but I don't think abortion jokes are made in order to enact social change. It's usually just to be offensive. Satire is usually used to point out how ridiculous something is, the hope is that we as a society will see it and do something about it.

The 1m was confiscated because it was ‘illegal income’, not because he used VPN.

Yes, it’s still shitty that using VPN to access GitHub makes his income illegal

using VPN ... makes his income illegal

Yes, they fine wasn't a flat 1m or whatever, but because he earned it while using a VPN on and off(cuz the great firewall periodically blocks github). None of that would of happened if he didn't use a VPN, so saying that the direct reason he's in trouble isn't why he got punished is less honest.

If your complaint is about how the number was determined, perhaps it would be better as "Chinese programmer ordered to pay entire income(1m yuan) for using Virtual Private Network." Honestly, either headline is fine as long as the details of how that number was chosen is in the article.

It's just the Madagascar Plan all over again.

From Washington Post:

In the lawsuit, Biden does not concede that the laptop was his, but he does acknowledge that at least “some of the data that Defendants obtained, copied, and proceeded to hack into and tamper with belongs” to him. The lawsuit charges that Biden’s data was “manipulated, altered and damaged before it was copied and sent” to Giuliani and Costello.

He specifically says some of his private data was hacked, he's not saying the laptop they had was his, just they definitely had his private data.

Lol at mobile autocorrect, I wanted to say exfiltrated.

I'm pretty sure what's being alleged is that there is real data exfiltrated from his devices on the laptop, but the laptop itself wasn't his. As in he was hacked, someone created the laptop with that data and added manipulations to it, then coincidently dropped it off to be "found".

Given the lack of proper chain of custody, it's probably likely.

I think he means that a 90% drop would be 90 Mbps. This is more like a 7% drop.
