You didn’t mention a VPN, so when you said “moving” I naturally thought you meant physically… .…(ツ)…/

Can’t answer for anybody else, but from what admittedly limited information I’m aware of there are many reasons I’d not want to move to India - Modi, pollution so bad in places you can hardly see through it at times, rampant huliganism, sexism, mobs severely beating/killing people (most not even nearly for “justifiable” causes), high unemployment, castes, people still openly using public streets for restrooms, etc. Doesn’t seem like it’s any better than the Ununited States of America.

If you’re in the US, you’re already there - just give it some time for that truth to take its inevitable hold.

Upgrade was definitely good - should be on everyone here’s watch list.

Based upon the books by William Shatner, a.k.a. the original Captain Kirk? It was a thing for a few years in the '90s, but yeah - pretty much dropped off the radar entirely afterwards.

One of the comments said it’s missing 15 minutes. Wonder why?

They’ll find some way to blame Dems for anything that becomes too unpopular, and their base will willingly buy into it to avoid responsibility - until something bites them personally. It’ll take far too long for it to affect enough of them personally to save the rest of us with some semblance of rationality, though.

This.

I’d tell you to GFY, but you already have & just don’t realize it yet.

Can we accelerate that timeline? Say to like Jan 20, 2025 (let the kids enjoy one last chance at any snow we might be lucky enough to get)?

The Princess Bride.

It’s about effing time he gets to experience what he’s been doing to all of us.

Highlight the entire headline, and perform a search on it. Even if you can’t discern the true source, there ought to be plenty of better sites to link to.

If it helps, this Gen Xer (i.e. “me”) is offsetting their remaining parent’s vote. We were told growing up how decent we should be, yet when we actually took that to heart and did that our parents went off the reservation and lost their minds. There are a LOT of fractured families thanks to Trump & Faux Snuz, and I hope we can make the future worth all the trouble they’ve caused.

It’ll never count if you don’t even give it a chance. There have been a good number of examples where winners were determined by just a few hundred votes out of millions. There’s no harm in trying to support the future you want, so even if you don’t think it’ll matter go vote anyway - you never know…

Official “support” just means the biggest size they tested. The current SDXC standard has supported up to 2TB since the standard was released. Any device supporting SDXC should work just fine with a 2TB card even if they don’t specify it as officially supported (assuming they didn’t deliberately nerf their driver for some unfathomable reason).

You can change your situation all you like, but it’s not going to change who you are (especially as this big brother world enabled by technology makes it virtually impossible to escape your past). If you’ve reached a point where you have virtually nothing left to motivate you to move forward (especially if it has been that way for a long time), then the significant effort it would take to try to save you is unlikely to be worth it (never mind finding anyone who would actually care enough to devote themselves to such a task) - particularly with an outcome that is FAR from certain to be a positive one.

Some people just reach a point of being basically devoid of hope, and therefore pretty much dead inside.

Don’t ask me how I know.

As a backup option, you can give Google Assistant or a Google Home the following commands: “at 10PM, sleep {lightname}” to dim, or “at 6AM, wake {lightname}” to brighten - both work over the space of a half-hour, and for some odd reason that’s not customizable.

There’s a completely free app (no ads, either) that prevents auto-rotate from actually happening unless you want it to. It pops up an icon when your phone wants to rotate, and it you don’t tap it within the timeout (adjustable up to 3 seconds) then the icon goes away and the rotation never happens. It’s highly customizable, and I just can’t live without it since I found it.

I clearly see Hobbes, but I had no idea he had a twin brother…?
