  I would think he and RFK planned everything. The fact that RFK ran as a “3rd candidate” was just a facade. Remember how he spent months running ads, promoting himself as a much better candidate? It’s all part of the show.

  so much for “dems and deep state” arguments. Where are the opinions of Breibart Steve Bannon or other right wing commentators on this? Ben Shapiro?

  Guess they’re all a bunch of pussy. Too scare to say anything to upset their boss, the mighty Donald

  you know how trolls respond in games or everywhere online? Exactly like this. Did Don forget to breath while writing that run-on sentence?

  i like Keepass, in fact I’ve been using it fot almost 2 years. Might consider going “GNU Pass” so I have more controls.

  On the flip side, please keep digging yourself in a hole, Microsoft. More incentive to join Linux for us users.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do some drivers turn off the signal sound so quickly?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Thanks everyone for replying. Looks like I wasnt clear on the OP: these drivers literally have their left hand (for left handed traffic) the entire duration of the turn - it almost seems like if they let the signal to “tick” for more than 1 second then a bomb would explode or something. And they always commit to the turn, the signal is just a façade. So the correct sequence is like this:

  1. Signal on AND commit to turn at the same time. No delay. Thats why I mentioned these guys dont even look.
  2. Car not fully into the other lane => signal off.

  Everything takes place in 0.5 second. Or you blink and he’s gone.

  Regarding the autocancel signal, yeh I do know about that. On old cars like the 2016 Corrola - you flick the signal, it stays flicked until you flicked it off or finish a turn. On new ones like Mini Cooper / BMW, a gentle flick would signal for 3 sec then automatically turn off. This is something different lol.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do you use your blinker in a car?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Either you use it or you dont. It is good to use it though, make it a good habit. Plus, I want to announce to those around me especially when I am backing up into a garage: I am here, do not stand in my way. If you dont use it, obviously you can cause accidents.

  That being said, there is a 3rd group who I absolutely fucking despised:

  Those who use it just to show the cops or whoever the fuck around that “look, I use blinkers”

  When changing lane or enter a turn, uually this type of driver will go Click-Turn-Click. No head movements whatsoever. Also turning the signal off immediately like the sound of it can cause them brain cancer or something.

  oh LibreOffice works great for me in general. Only for some documents with macros that were created in MS Office, I have problems running them. Eg: I once received a MS Word document that has some preprogrammed drop down list - so you click to extend the list and choose your items. The document opens fine, but I couldnt get the drop down feature to work. For Excel, documents with lots of VBA codes, I need to go in and do some manual changes.

  In general, for 99% of the tasks, LibreOffice is fine. But it is that 1% which makes me still open up my Windows VM for MS Office.

  After their shenanigan with subscription only models, we still see MS Office being used a lot. It shows how strong MS grips on the Office area is.

  You are correct that 365 is used for most people. I used to use it too…For me, I prefer to be able to access stuff whenever I want. I live in an area with very shitty internet (both Wifi and 4G). Once, a client and I had to wait 5 minutes because Office Online takes too long to load up a spreadsheet. Offline for me is just a peace of mind.

  LibreOffice better step up their games and make their office suites better. Outside of very niche and specialized applications like CAD or video editor, the average Joe will just need a good office suite to do stuff.

  IMO:

  • want to show off? i3wm with gaps and rofi for menu launcher. Add it some transparency effects too.

  • want the MacOS style? Gnome. Default on a lot of distros.

  • want something stable? XFCE. Install and forget.
