You mean a fingerprint scanner? Like the ones that have been on all phones for years? Or, explicitly on the back, like the LG G3 did in 2014? The way you phrased that it seems like it was new information to you.

Windows 95 had the music video for Weezer’s Buddy Holly on the install disc.

If Jesus were anywhere in the US he was be in the lush Coast Range forests of NW Oregon because he could just let that dong fly on his own property.

I cannot wait for this bubble to burst.

If you still have a local non-chain pharmacy use them until they go out of business. They will eventually because the chains have a stranglehold on pricing and are actively raising costs for independents, then offering to buy the business as it founders.

Mark Cuban’s Cost Plus drugs is my refuge from pharmacies. It’s cheaper than the chains even if you have insurance, but I can’t be my Adderall through them.

Swimming nude is far superior. Nude sunbathing feels great.

No it isn’t.

Nimrod was a great hunter in the Bible. Bugs was being sarcastic and did the man dirty for generations to come.

Absolute truth. I haven’t run into a single game that doesn’t run on my second-from-top-of-the-line gaming PC I built last year under Linux. I know they exist because I see articles about a developer removing Proton support for odd reasons, but it hasn’t impacted me yet.

MS has largely made their own OS irrelevant by putting the Office Suite in the cloud. If you need Excel but don’t want Copilot throwing all your screengrabs to Redmond a box running Ubuntu or Mint or Bazzite or MacOS (a legit option for some people with niche applications that cater to the Apple crowd). MS is following the same playbook with the Xbox brand. If everything is an Xbox then why would you harness yourself to a crappy MS branded one?

Apple’s making it easy these days. Mac Minis are cheap and more than enough computer for 95% of people’s tasks, while also using sipping watts. I’m on a M4 Mac Mini and it’s using 3.91 watts right now. I’ve run it at full tilt for extended periods of time and I barely heard the fan. It even runs BG3 somehow.

That said, the power button being on the bottom is dumb but not a real issue. MacOS’s assumption that you’re going to be using a trackpad is annoying for those of us with nice mice. Actually, MacOS is just annoying in a lot of ways. I get that the bumpers are there to keep people from causing long lines at Genius Bars, but I wish there were just a single button that I could hit that tell the machine I know my way around a *nix and don’t need to be babied at every turn.

Who said anything about a kitchen?

Feels clickbaity.

The phrase “tea tree” generally refers to a different plant than Camellia sinensis. “Tea plant” or “tea bush” are what you’re looking for.

Tea is just one Camellia of many. Tea seed oil is used in cosmetics and comes from a different Camellia and ornamental Camellias are common in gardens around the world. Your scope on Camellia doesn’t encompass the breadth of it.

IT BAFFLES ME THAT HE FUCKED A GREMLIN AT THE END OF GREMLINS 2.

Looks like the old school iPad dock connection.

That shit’s been going on for way longer than South Park has existed.

We should never stop holding leaders responsible for their actions.

Are they going to try making them good vehicles for a change?

Lots of people share blame but Obama did not fight for it at all, which amounts to appeasement. There should have been a Supreme Court case about it.
