I like it, but I like most Mtn. Dew flavors.

Definitely inspired by peach tea, if that helps.

The whole reason I got on YT Premium was because it was free with Google Play Music. I have real issues watch non-Premiun now, because I’ve always disliked advertising methods. (Not so much th ads, which can be entertaining, but just being shown content I didn’t request instead of the content I did request.)

Have you tried Sweet Lightning? It’s a KFC exclusive flavor that hasn’t escaped containment the way Baja Blast escaped Tace Bell.

I do or at least I have in the past. If the caller will answer my Google call screening, I’ll answer or call back.

There’s always been a issue of sample not matching population, and a variety of methods to correct for that. But, I will admit there is some limitations to that, and I don’t quite understand where the limitations are. (I love math, but I failed statistics once, and barely passed the second time. I prefer symbols and proofs and closed forms…)

While that is also my pet name for JD, keep in mind it is aspirational, not historic.

Nope. I don’t know exactly what happened there, but after ABC bought it, Nate was gradually phased out. He found alternative funding.

Sssh, Top Sneaky.

There are still people that distrust government as a general principle AND still believe the GOP is the party of “small government” so they will vote for whatever name is next to the R.

He’s not an idiot. He is funded by Thiel. He has been politically captured by authoritarian capitalism, so I’d be wary of any models he produced that aren’t independently audited for bias.

I think polls are useful, and the monte carlo simulation approach for turning them into a electorial vote probability is good, but there “too much” magic sauce left over for me to trust the outputs from Silver or 538.

infosec.pub is pretty tolerant…

Hmm, maybe next time I’m buying games, I’ll pick up BL3 hoping it works on my Debian system through Proton or something.

Thanks for the info.

From the reviews I’ve seen (Outside Xbox), that’s the most you’ll get out of it. It’s mostly a nothing burger, “bad” is the best thing you can say about it.

BL2 still works on Linux, too. I can’t play BL3, which I hear is the better game (albeit with worse plot).

Hmm. That’s a long commitment for something I can’t try out. Still, yeah, if it can restore any “youth” I might lose during that seven years, I’d experiment. Lots of changes I’d be curious to experience.

Can I use the button multiple times? If so, I have several experiments / experiences to do / have.

If it’s a one time thing, I’d probably stick with the same genetics. I got pretty lucky, and I’d hate to make a change that I later felt negative about.

I’ve given up. Especially with my new address (same state), I don’t think any of the races are even close.

I voted as hard as possible until (and including) 2022, but Dobbs hurt, and this latest round of SCOTUS rulings and it is going to be harder to get to a voting station. It just doesn’t feel worth it.

$dayjob gave me an email, but they are the only ones that use it. My primary is a GMail, though I really should switch to a less crappy provider. I run my own mail server, all my GMail is just forwarded there, but it’s not my primary because too many people were having problems sending or receiving mail though there.

So, 3 or less in practice.

I also have a half-dozen variant usernames at GMail and can trivially create as many as I like on my own mail server. So, unbounded in theory.

Vocabulary question X + shell + powder = bullet, what is X?

Because usually the threat is that X will be delivered through use of powder the destination of the shell is ambiguous but not included in the delivery.

When you deliver while (unfired) bullets it’s generally not considered a threat.

The other suggestions are probably better, but you can technically self-host Wire (from Wire Gmbh) but I’ve never done it successfully.
