You forget how ridiculously difficult and expensive it was to buy a PS2 when it was released.

I think the scarier thing is the part where a user has 66 comments, 77 comment karma, and 109,000 post karma. How are comments not upvoted more when post karma is that high? If you made a good post, the comments you make in that post should be upvoted relatively the same. Why is no one getting comment upvotes when it “appears” to be popular?
Thanks…now I’m acutely aware of the spit in my mouth and when I swallow it.
Honestly, nothing yet. I’ve only been playing with it for a few weeks. I just use the web interface on my phone to test the voice control. I’ve been looking at the esp32 devices that people have been building, but a lot of them admit that they can’t come anywhere close to the reliability of the microphone array used in the Alexa.
And this is exact the reason I’m building a Home Assistant instance with local voice processing. Right now it takes a few seconds to process a request and take action on my crappy 1.8ghz laptop with only 4gb of RAM, but it basically does everything I use Alexa for. This announcement is just encouraging me to build a better server with an esp32 satellite.
I saw this coming as soon as they killed the old mobile site. I generated a new gmail address to placate Reddit’s requirements, just in case I needed to modify old comments. Of course I unfortunately realized they were backing up and restoring old comments anyways, and that most of it was likely sold before the API debacle. But I can still get back in whenever I want, not that I really want to. Just like Digg. And Fark.
It’s not that anything would eat an alligator that’s the problem. Plenty of things will eat an alligator, as long as it’s dead. It’s taking down a live alligator and swallowing it whole that’s concerning.
I bought during the height of the housing frenzy in Canada in 2021. Putting any condition on the sale meant that you wouldn’t get the house. I found a few issues but took the chance anyways. As soon as the sale went through, I got an inspector in to check out everything I found. I got lucky for the most part, but there were a few things that he found that I didn’t. It’s better to know these things and plan for them than to be oblivious.
Get the inspection. It’s not weird at all. They are all aware of the current situation.
Obligatory “Real users use Hannah Montana Linux” post.
Think of Luke as a religious reformist in a way, rejecting the institutions of a religion while not rejecting the religion itself. He was Martin Luther with a lightsaber.
So he’s a splitter…
But seriously, we all know that Lucas was flying by the seat of his pants writing the sequels and that his wife is the real hero of Star Wars. Everything that came afterwards was created by someone else. In the end Lucas’s story, Luke still used dark side powers. He called himself “Jedi”, but he was simply a Force user with wild ideas about the past. There were no strictly light side users or dark side users anymore. There was simply the Force. If you want to take extended canon into account, Yoda even stated this when he destroyed the last of the Jedi archives. He understood that balance could only be truly restored by letting go of the past.
And everyone will still call it Twitter.
Bring the tire with you when you pay the fine so they can take the boot off. All this does is create an inconvenience instead of immobilizing the vehicle.
What’s stops someone from simply changing the tire? This seems like a bad design for a boot.
What he intended and what he showed us are two different things. By the end of ROTJ, there were no more Sith and no real Jedi left. Luke called himself a Jedi, but didn’t really follow the strict rules and didn’t completely shun the dark side. He simply used it without anger. At that point, balance was truly restored.
Wanted to play some games, didn’t have money but I did know someone that knew someone that knew someone that ran a BBS that had some pirated games.
Yes, I’m that old.
And that’s exactly what happened. Jedi tried to eliminate the Sith, the balance was lost, the Sith created the Choose One to bring back balance to the force, a whole lot of death and destruction ensued, and balance was restored.
With a built-in clothes dryer!
It is what it is

This is fucked, but I can’t help
Right, which stops you from thinking of solutions and ends the discussion. But maybe it’s doesn’t have to be like that if you just talked it out a little more.
We had plastic cutting boards that covered the entire length of the counter that would become stained and dirty through the day despite being wiped down after almost every order. And since sanitization is vitally important at a restaurant, they needed to be cleaned somehow. The boards would be rinsed and wiped down every morning before use.
Yes, and the PS2 was still more expensive than anything else on the market at the time. Plus there were shortages. I didn’t even see a PS2 until mid 2002 when a coworker finally got one and invited us over for a party.
