Technically she does still work, although she certainly doesn’t need to survive. Her needs are well and truly met a million times over.

Bezos bought the Expanse to save the series so he could keep watching it.
Musk does lots of nerdy shit like dressing as Iron Man or referencing Star Trek.
So yeah at least with sci-fi they consume it.

KW: “I’d prefer not to have …”
JP: “No, that’s why I …”
AH: (Anna Hofner, paramedic): " … be the person in town who tasers a 95-year-old."
KW: “No, no, actually have someone stabbed.”
AH: “Oh yeah, that too.”
Hahaha Anna Hofner gave no chill and I’m all for it.

Growing up in rural vic, Ibises were some of the most majestic birds at the pond. It’s always saddened me to see how Sydney ruined their reputation.

I stopped play Halo when the 3rd came out. How well does this hold up today? I was always curious about it but it felt more MP focused.

- Comment on M4 Mac Mini Power Button Has New Bottom Location 2 weeks ago:
The standby drain is negligible and it allows for the device to stay updated and synced.
- Comment on M4 Mac Mini Power Button Has New Bottom Location 2 weeks ago:
Is your power button at the back of your pc next to the usb and hdmi ports?
- Comment on M4 Mac Mini Power Button Has New Bottom Location 2 weeks ago:
Well first off if you look at the picture, this is a much smaller device. If the power switch was in the same place as the larger case it would be on the side edge.
Secondly because it’s now moved into a space where it’s lot going to be accidentally hit and requires an intentional effort to press.
That’s great, how many IT guys have to manually go around turning off hundreds of computers at the switch instead of running some automated method across the whole network? Such a rare and unlikely situation that the average home consumer and user of a device such as this really doesn’t ever have to factor in.
- Comment on M4 Mac Mini Power Button Has New Bottom Location 2 weeks ago:
Uh how often are you having to power on your Mac mini? I think mines been off like twice last year.
Having the power switch away from where I often blindly poke around to plug cables in, sounds like a good choice.

- Comment on Man jailed for breaking into army depot and impersonating field marshal 3 weeks ago:
Judge Alan Troy stated the facts were “somewhat bizarre” and asked how Sturgeon managed to enter the correct PIN to the lock box, observing there must have been “sophistication at play”.
What’s the bet 4 digits had faded paint all around them.

- Comment on Youtube - Bryan Lunduke - Sanctions Hit Linux Kernel, Russian Programmers Banned 3 weeks ago:
Hahaha fucking Linus is a legend.
Ok, lots of Russian trolls out and about.
It’s entirely clear why the change was done, it’s not getting reverted, and using multiple random anonymous accounts to try to “grass root” it by Russian troll factories isn’t going to change anything.
And FYI for the actual innocent bystanders who aren’t troll farm accounts - the “various compliance requirements” are not just a US thing.
If you haven’t heard of Russian sanctions yet, you should try to read the news some day. And by “news”, I don’t mean Russian state-sponsored spam.
As to sending me a revert patch - please use whatever mush you call brains. I’m Finnish. Did you think I’d be *supporting* Russian aggression? Apparently it’s not just lack of real news, it’s lack of history knowledge too."

- Comment on How does US "early voting" works logistically speaking ? 3 weeks ago:
How would a dishonest person add extra? Here in Australia you go in, get signed off on a book, and they give you a piece of paper for your voting preferences. You don’t get unlimited papers to vote multiple times.
For early voting they mail us out a sheet and envelope, and we mail it back.
