When you turn 45, you will meet anus to scope to proctologist.

When the only tool you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail.

Pharmacies/drug stores in America have unique laws and ordinances that go back to prohibition. During that time, they took over the role of saloons in communities, since they were able to sell medicinal whisky.

You’ve got some close competition, but I think you win the most Mengele response of the thread.

I’ve changed the air filter on mine and I think that’s all the maintenance I will ever do

The barbecue is good, but that sauce is way too sweet. I need to try the burritos. Those fresh tortillas look 🔥

Yeah I see em, too, but Clark County is barely hanging on. We’ll see with this next election. Fuckin white flight from Louisville is making Jeffersonville more red.

Nah Gary is really close to Chicago, and goes heavily Democrat. Western suburbs of Indianapolis are where you find high concentrations of wackadoos.

Celebrities do express support for third party candidates regularly

Uh because they have freedom of speech and can think whatever they want

Amanda Palmer doesn’t have anything to do with what’s going on right now.

For those out of the loop:

The stories have broken from a podcast from Tortoise Media called ‘Master, the allegations against Neil Gaiman’. I have not listened to any of it, but have read these two articles from Tortoise, which provide summaries of events and his responses:

https://www.tortoisemedia.com/2024/08/01/exclusive-two-more-women-accuse-neil-gaiman-of-sexual-assault-and-abuse/

In three of the cases, he claims their relations were all consensual. In two of them, there are NDAs, and one of them is described in some detail in the second article.

In the last one, he claims he misread a situation and stopped as soon as he realized it.

It’s not looking good for him, that is for sure. I think he’s hoping he can deny everything and it will blow over after some time, but it keeps getting worse. It doesn’t seem like anything will result in criminal charges, but there is a lot of smoke around him.

I’m still a fan of his work; it’s been a huge influence on my life, so it’s causing a lot of difficult feelings.

That would be a departure from every other “investigation” in this war, where Israel investigates and finds no wrong.

To be effective as a cop, you have to operate close to the edge.

It is pretty insane how outsized Trump’s influence is.

• He sank a bipartisan immigration bill developed, in part, by some of the most conservative members of Congress, with the sole purpose of denying a victory to the Whitehouse.
• He and his most fervent cultists still refuse to concede that he lost the 2020 election.
• Politics of fear and spite, afflicting large swaths of the electorate with such.
• Democrats have been “in power” for… almost 4 years. It’s not a mystery, it’s simple arithmetic!

I would encourage you to do some experimenting in virtual machines before making a move on your hardware. I’m not familiar with Windows tools in this regard, but something like VirtualBox allows you to go through the installation process and test out configuration options without risking breaking your bootloader, etc.

I don’t have a certain answer to your first question, but I’ve had great gaming experiences on both Arch and Debian. One of the biggest advantages to Arch is the wiki, which you will probably find yourself using no matter which distro you end up on, as it has good documentation for a lot of different applications.

Ubuntu is a fine choice if a distro, but I wouldn’t assume that there is greater application compatibility with Windows. Portability has way more to with the application than with the OS, so if there are certain applications you cannot do without, you need to start researching their Linux compatibility. There is also a compatibility layer you may have heard about already called Wine, so look into that, too.

AMD has better open source driver support with it’s hardware than Nvidia. I don’t know so the details on this, but if you have an AMD GPU, that is generally more desirable at this time.

I would encourage you to try out all the most popular distros in VirtualBox, and go from there.
