Oh for sure, those are a communal resource.

He was a raging alcoholic who hid his illness from the medical professionals who examined him as part of his Super Size Me “experiment.” A lifetime of booze did way more damage than 30 days of McDs possibly could.
That was actually the rest of the comic:
Yeah, it’s all the same guys that inspired this meme.
I looked at BGrizzy1989’s tweets so no one else has to, and hooboy. Pro-Trump, transphobic, anti-woke, fat-shaming. As one might expect, it takes a pretty gross human being to freak out about less-than-supermodel looks on a video game character.
What the hell do these people want in their games? Supermodels? Porn stars?
My guess would be they want both of those things. Related ice-cold take on the Horizon series:
I’m sure there would be a way to do this with Debian, but I have to confess I don’t know it. I have successfully done this in the past with Clover Bootloader. You have to enable an NVMe driver, but once that’s done you should see an option to boot from your NVMe device. After you’ve booted from it once, Clover should remember and boot from that device automatically going forward. I used this method for years in a home theatre PC with an old motherboard and an NVMe drive on a PCIe adapter.
The game had an 8-hour free trial. That would drive the “engagement” they’re talking about, and I’m guessing it’s the only positive news they have. If the game was selling well or had significant daily active users, they’d be talking about that instead.
They might taste terrible, but the net benefits to society would be grrreat!
Oh believe me, the cat knows.
Yeah, that’s definitely a thing. They need to implement an idle timer. Seems like a low effort feature that would improve the login experience significantly.
If you look at the Steam player charts for the game you’ll see when it’s working vs. when it’s not. Off-peak it works fine, but right now the player base is ramming up against their temporary player cap for hours at a time on-peak. If you try to connect when there are thousands of others also trying to connect, that’s when things go south. That was the case for much of the weekend.
Edit: Here’s a chart illustrating what I mean:
In the last 48 hours, player counts hit 400k at about 7pm Eastern UTC and just stayed there for 6-ish hours. That isn’t normal, almost all other player count charts show a gradual rise and fall over the course of a day. The devs implemented an artificial cap after they found that their servers bog down when there are too many active players, basically sacrificing the peak time login experience to preserve the in-game experience. If you try to connect while the active player count is pegged, you’re essentially joining a swarm of other players who are also trying to connect at the same time. That swarm is likely DOSing some aspect of their own login systems.
If you let it sit on the black screen, it will eventually let you in. Or to be exact it will eventually display the intro movie and splash screen, you’ll probably see servers at capacity there and after some time there you’ll eventually get in. Not exactly sure what it’s doing on that black screen, but I’m guessing it’s trying to talk to some server that’s massively overloaded. I spent most of the weekend playing with friends, so I had to suffer through the wait multiple times.
When I fly to the US from Toronto I clear US customs in Pearson Airport, before getting on the plane. If I were to sign up for a Nexus pass I’d be able to pass through US customs even faster, but I don’t travel often enough for it to be worthwhile. Not sure if either of those matches what you mean by pre-clearance.
Elon broke the seal on firing huge swaths of a tech workforce to make your numbers look better.
Don’t give him too much credit, it’s hardly the first time the tech sector has gone through this cycle. Elon had to do it because he massively overpaid for Twitter. The fact that his layoffs came at the front of this wave is probably just coincidence.
What an odd coincidence… I’ve been following this boat-building channel on Youtube for a couple years, and they talked about wood grain in the episode posted just today. Here’s a link to the relevant timestamp in the video. I’m not a woodworking expert by any means, but if the boat people say tighter grain is better I’ma believe 'em.
I’m not sure it fits 100% with what you’re looking for, but I’ll take chance and recommend Slice & Dice (Google Play, Apple App Store). Free demo, no ads, single in-app purchase to unlock the full version. This game is easily the best value-for-dollar mobile game I’ve ever purchased.
