CryptEx has a nice ring to it! I should have thought of that!

The entire thing started when an ICE thug violently pushed a woman to the ground for absolutely no reason. Do not ever forget how it all started.πŸ‘‡

The Tidal UI is a lot more friendly for those who like building a lot of playlists. Not quite as good as Spotify, but the music fidelity is better, has solid offline support, and the artist payout is one of the best for a streamer.

We are outraged and deeply distressed that armed federal agents came onto our campusβ€”making arrests on the very ground where, in 1942, Japanese American families were forced to board buses bound for concentration camps. It was a deliberate act of provocation and intimidation.

In authoritarian crackdowns, it’s important to randomly ensnare some people whom one would think would be safe, so that everyone is at least a little bit afraid that something could happen to them. The regime scales up its power of intimidation over a much larger group than those directly affected.

It is far past the time when Google PlayStore should be validating that the password manager Auto-fill feature actually works for every app that requires a sign in. People need to use password managers and stop reusing passwords, and this is one of the biggest obstacles.

Regular Expressions? There's nothing regular about them. I propose we change their name to Crazy Expressions. CrazEx.

When I was little, the U.S. military came to our home at gunpoint and took me and my family away. We were imprisoned for years in barbed wire camps simply because we were Japanese American. I have spent my life telling that story, hoping it would never be repeated.

When a network lays off one of America’s greatest satirists, it’s not because he failed. It’s because he succeeded too loudly.

As someone who hasn't played Starcraft in a while I can confirm it is *nothing* like riding a bicycle.

More than 16 million Americans are at risk of losing their health care because Republicans in Congress are rushing to pass a bill that would cut federal funding for Medicaid and weaken the Affordable Care Act.

The name "Alligator Alcatraz" reminds us that America is currently run by adults who are like malicious, giggling children using magnifying glasses to burn ants.

If the Supreme Court thinks universal injunctions are unconstitutional, to wait until *now* to say that, in this of all cases, with this of all presidents, is a devastating indictment of both its impartiality and its prudence.

So am I reading this court decision correctly? We now have 50 micronations with their own laws interpreting the U.S. Constitution wholly separate from one another? But there's one guy with private law enforcement who is immune from all punishment who can do whatever he wants in those 50 states?

Star Trek: Strange New Worlds will end with a truncated fifth season Star Trek: Strange New Worlds has been, sort of, cancelled by Paramount+. The show will end with its fifth season.

This is a mistake. This show is well-loved & the best of the modern Trek shows. It could easily go on to a season 7 or 8.

How was Pocket any different than a cloud-sync'd bookmark? Firefox already has cloud-sync'd bookmarks. I never saw the benefit of that service. And it forced itself on the address bar without a way to remove it for entirely too long, giving me a bad perception of it anyway.

Clair Obscur: Exp 33 should have AAA studios questioning "Why did we need to have 600+ teams to make Starfield?"

Is their bureaucracy paying dividends or is it actually stifling creativity and exhausting game devs into creating the most expensive lack-luster turd drops imaginable?

This deserves more attention. The yahoos on the right are trying to steal the election from this justice in NC. After two vote counts, it was clear she won. But that's not enough. Her opponent is fighting to disenfranchise voters by tossing out their votes so he can have the seat.

Make sure the resolution matches what is in your display settings as well. Try running with Anti-Aliasing set to DLAA instead of DLSS. Some gpus may not even need DLSS for ESO as it doesn't have cutting edge graphics.

DLSS or FSR features set to Performance can cause that.
