I’m guessing some variation on “capitalism bad”.

Problem might be tv side. I have an LG and CEC is working just fine. Do all HDMI ports on your TV actually support CEC? I remember that not every port supporting CEC used to be a thing.

In this case his age is kind of relevant. Risk of dementia increases with age.

I have it on my work laptop, because unfortunately my company bought into the hype. Every once in a while I ask it how to do a thing, just to see if it will help. So far copilot has been wrong 100% of the time.

Same. I have the tube one, so maybe the original is different and has problems?

Was anyone ever operating under the illusion that a revolution wouldn’t involve a civil war?

Good thing nobody said that then.

At least Eby was willing to say it directly.

A Corvette is definitely a midlife-crisis-mobile BUT, people misunderstand what a midlife crisis actually is. It’s not about trying to be young again, it’s about finally having the money to buy/do the thing you’ve wanted to the whole time.

Eating less will absolutely work for 100% of people. That’s just physics. The problem is adjusting timeframe expectations. If it took a lifetime to gain the weight, you’re not going to get rid of it with a couple months of dieting. Trying to go too fast is what causes the problem. It’s like never working out a day in your life, then trying to bench 500 lbs as your first ever lift; you’re going to hurt yourself.

“easy” is definitely not the word to use, since it’s clearly not easy. I think “Simple” is the better way to put it. Things can be simple, and yet extremely difficult.

the phone call is more convenient as it can be placed from anywhere

And that’s half the problem. My job deals with things that physically exist, and if you can’t be bothered to get your ass in here to actually look at it, I can’t be bothered to deal with whatever your problem of the day is (yes I’m getting bitter about engineers sitting at home telling me “BuT iT wOrKs iN CAD”).

Also, in person conversations are far more effective than phone conversations. Human communication is far more than just purely verbal.

Email tends to have less expectation for immediate response and doesn’t have unavoidable “message read” notifications. Most importantly, in my experience at least, people tend to put more details into an email. Texts, teams messages, etc seem to cause people to try and speak in single sentences, and then I have to play 21 questions to drag the info out of them.

Either send me an email and you’ll get an answer when you get an answer, or come see me in person. Phone calls and text messages are annoying as shit.

Nah, the trick is to write $20 on it. Then someone will steal it and your problem is completely gone.

And even more importantly, you have to figure out what is causing the ants to grow that big in the first place. There are billions of ants on the planet. Killing the couple giant ones does nothing if other ants can just grow to the same size.

Someone has to keep the classics alive.

When God gives you lemons, you FIND A NEW GOD!

Lying on official reports? Surely that’s some sort of felony that will be duely punished, right?

They should keep an eye on the spending habits of whichever ICE officials authorized that.
