It costs more than the real Gameboy did in the early 90ies. (Not adjusted for Inflation, though.)

If any person actually typed that they aren’t sane at all.

That doesn’t actually rule out anything.

Maybe he means that he took that photo on the sly, through a keyhole or something? In that case, “peeked” makes sense again.

I don’t know, they’re demanding quite a lot of expensive stuff there. Of course, it depends on what the contract the says, or of there even if a contract at that point. If the contract allows for that stuff, or if they’re willing to pay hefty additional fees for all that, than that’s okay. If not, they are acting unreasonably entitled here.

* Edit: Just saw the second pic. It’s still wild but they are offering to pay as much as it takes, so as far as I’m concerned, they’re in the clear.

So are mine – but the power use is becoming a problem. More modern screens use less than half that at the same size and brightness. Replacement will be necessary soon.

Older Millenial here. It was definitely GenX that paved the way for the computer world I learned, and it was mostly GenX who wrote the books and taught the lessons (often informal) that brought us what knowledge we have, at least in the beginning. Plus a small selection of exceptional individuals from older generations, including, dare I say it,… the baby boomers.

“They’re a private company” (with a state-sponsored monopoly on an essential good).

I don’t know how anybody is surprised by this. Who do you think would buy a privatized municipal water supplier, other than people trying to squeeze as much money as possible from a population with no recourse and no say in the matter?

Why does he look like Leonardo DiCaprio?

There is no wise way to use that information.

But the foolish ones could be entertaining.

The only context in which I’ve ever heard of that place is that big military cemetery.

Is this a meme from when JPEG was new and a 56k modem was considered blazingly fast?

Non-murder solution:

Place and hold the apples precisely on top of one another. (Make sure your fingers are not in the way.) From one side of the apple tower, go horizontally exactly two thirds of the way to the other side. At that position, cut vertically through both apples from top to bottom. You now have two pieces that are two thirds of an apple each, and two pieces that are one third each. The kid you like best will receive the end slices without the apple core in it.

More realistically, disregard the stupid premise and make as many cuts as you need.

In the background i can only recognize Shinzo Abe (Japan).

John Bolton is also quite recognizable. The rest, I can’t place, either.

Germany’s Angela Merkel called the U.S. president’s words “sobering and a little depressing"

Meanwhile, the Italians thought he was too chaotic and disorganized, the Greek didn’t like his lack of work ethic, the French objected to his constant philandering and the British were put off by his taste in food.

Files and directories starting with a dot are hiden by default. You are aksing for this stuff if you manually unhide them.

I don’t like the interrobang. It looks too crowded, and the sharp angle created between the question mark and the exclamation mark looks out of place in among latin alphabet letters.

It should be 8 Hz, but according to the question text, that would mean answer “A”, while according to the labels next to the answer options, it would be “B”, because they’re inconsistent.

Is that really a meme? Looks more like some random software QA failure. Is there a community for software gore or something?

I’ve gotten used to this. The posts where I write several paragraphs and go kinda in-depth on a topic, and even do some research in the background on to make sure I don’t talk complete nonsese routinely get no upvotes at all. The ones that rise to the top are snippy one-liner remarks that get a cheap laugh out of people, but honestly don’t add anything of substance to the discussion.

It’s been pointed in several places already, but: That’s not the guy. The one in the surveillance camera footage had a jacket without these high front pockets.
