Amazon charges per hour for renting a server. Some are very expensive. It’s a common mistake to forget to turn off a server after you’ve finished using it and end up paying more than you planned.

Single player: Balatro. With an honourable mention to Shapez2

Multiplayer: Helldivers 2. With an honourable mention to Space Marine 2

I guess keeping the government open and paychecks flowing is ‘nothing’ to this guy.

This Some More News episode is well worth a watch. “Nazi sympathiser Elon Musk’s Hitler problem”

Remarkably two crew members were rescued in the tail section.

And Balatro. A game by one dev, making many folks GOTY.

I’ve never understood that about America. How can you leave the dealership without a license plate. In the UK if you don’t have a plate you’re not on the road.

It wouldn’t be that far from how it worked before the invention of the railways, each town had its own local time. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Railway_time

Only six?

Probably more likely to be related to the Sora release or any of the other stuff they’ve announced this week.

There are tons of low budget indie films out there. If you want to see something other than the usual multiplex stuff check out a local film festival in your area.

One thing I found odd when living in the USA was how much folks treated a shop like a library. For a small example I needed a tape measure for a job, my boss suggested buying it, using it, and then returning it. Always thought that was weird, I’d only ever return something broken or that didn’t match the description.

It’s the same trivial belittling as making RFK Jr be photographed eating a Big Mac.

Plus his part of the $42bn on Twitter

It’s a conversation starter when you see another leftie in the field.

Yeah which ports are folks actually missing here? Looking at various ports.

Magsafe: This has returned on the new machines. I like it for the green / orange charge indicator. RJ-45: Ok I kinda of get it, but it’s such a tall port. Personally I’d prefer a thinner laptop in this instance. Mini DVI: long dead. Replaced with HDMI. The MacBook pro’s have HDMI FireWire: long dead USB A: Replaced with USB-C. Ok one A port here would still be useful. Headphone / Mic: Still there, just as a combo port on the other side. SD card reader: The MacBook Pros have this. Mini Display port: Long dead. Replaced with DP over USB C

In short if you want HDMI and SD card reader and are anti dongle you get a MBP which has both.

Either way now have ports that can push insane bandwidth and route USB, PCI, HDMI and DP over the same cable which is incredibly versatile.

Ah yes! They’ve just made it ever scarier, it now reads:

“Are you sure you want to DELETE xxx. This is IRREVERSIBLE! The file will be FOREVER LOST if you proceed”

Well obviously. It was only ever proposed to give him a reason to resign so the ethics report could be suppressed.
