The response can also be a closed fist or the end of a bayonet.

Not a first goal, but still a time tested answer.

10 people are all in a house, cooking a great stew, mixing different cuisines and spices. It's fragrant, tasty and filling. An 11th person comes in, drops his pants and starts pissing right into the stew.

Your stance is that everyone should calmly wait for him to finish pissing, politely taste the piss stew, comment on how welcome his piss is, and patiently listen to him ranting about why piss stew is the only stew that should be allowed.

Yeah, that's fucking bonkers mate. Someone pisses in your stew, you toss them the fuck out of the house.

Its a joke that tells you what he thinks about relationships. That they are inherently transactional, with "rare" outliers like this widow in his story.

Wow. I mean, Linux has a heavy fanbase here, but I've never seen someone shoehorn a discussion of Microsoft vs Linux into a thread about Nazis out of the blue.

Impressive.

How are Windows users and neo nazis alike in your analogy?

Looks like they didn't back that data up correctly, or don't have the granularity to just do the guild banks and would have to restore over wider systems.

I'm also betting they are watching players metrics and not seeing many people quit or cancel over this, so they are just going to see if it quietly goes away instead of doing any hard work go fix it.

The other politicians there have confirmed that it happened.

I'm still new to this myself, but yes that's the gist of it. This isn't k8s or even k3s. It's an easy way to deploy a container via code on a single node system using the already present systemd for management. It let's you pretend that Linux handles containers natively like it does daemons.

This article from redhat has more information about the why and what.

No, no no. They fixed opting not to put a cheap anti theft device in a decade of cars by "updating software" and installing "dont steal this" window stickers. Some lucky devils that couldn't get software got a new metal ring in their steering column, and then a sticker. You could even go to your local police department in some locations and get a free, ridiculously useless steering wheel lock, if you heard about it. Mail them to customers? Nah, that might cost money.

Dont worry, they only did this in the US. Every other nation has laws about having an immobilizer in cars, but not the good ol' USA. Kia even had them in the same models sold elsewhere, just not the US models.

It only affected about 1 million people so far though, who have at best had to go in and have a half ass fix applied at a dealership while being upsold. That just leaves 7 million unprotected cars out there.

At worst, whats a few thousand stolen cars and even more shattered windows among friends? Surely no fine or penalty should occur.

Ohh, also, the software update doesn't seem to be working.

When asked a simple yes or no question about whether he would do 1 of the 3 responsibilities of the job (be alive, breaks ties in the Senate, certify the election results), he refused to answer.

Youre saying that with so little to do, someone who refuses to say "yes" to 1/3rd of their job description would still be in the running at your employer?

You hiring?

Ehh, lying is a wide thing with different motivations. Gaslighting is a malicious type of lying that is designed to undermine the victims sense of reality, their sense of self. It's meant to increase dependency on the liar.

Its normally used to describe abusive romantic relationships, but it's not that specific. It can apply to jobs, families, and yes, government.

Vance is 100% gaslighting the American public. He's twisting what happened in a torturous way to make people afraid of trusting themselves and their lying eyes. Hes casting himself and Trump as the only people that "tell the truth" by lying. That's gaslighting.

Fuck yeah. Awesomenauts was a side scrolling moba whose art was a love letter to Saturday morning cartoons. It was weird as fuck, but also fun as fuck.

The devs did something unique and cool, and supported it way past when it was probably financially a good idea to drop it. That's a group of people that care about their craft.
