The chances of America charging these parents is zero. And this poor kid is just a herald of of things to come - people dying of preventable, contagious diseases because morons and kooks think vaccines are some kind of left wing conspiracy.

You can see why Amazon's efforts suck just by using it. That isn't to say I defend Steam, or Epic, or GOG, or UPlay, or Origin, or Battle.net, or Microsoft Store because they all suck. They suck for existing as separate things that all do the same thing but each eating 500Mb of space on my computer.

The ideal situation would be a federated platform where everyone shares a single sign on, everyone shares the same update, backup & restore mechanisms, everyone can join the same lobbies and matchmaking. But that's too sensible.

The less safe the better.

Prices in Ireland for 12 eggs are €3.75 for free range or €2.70 for barn

A quick visit to Twitter would make the answer abundantly clear - no

Maybe it will, but for the time being it hasn't. The experience is so vastly better than Twitter, that it's a no brainer to jump over. It also helps to have a decent competing platform that people like to suck users and influence away from the platform that Musk turned into a cesspit.

Bluesky is like Twitter but with about 1/10th the idiots, and no mechanism that the idiots can elevate their racist, moronic hot takes above other comments.

I certainly find it funny that Tesla's waiting list went from five years down to zero. Even Tesla's biggest fans who actually stumped money on this thing produced video after video griping about its price & brokenness.

But frankly it was kind of obvious from the get-go that it would be an expensive, uninsurable, lemony asshole death mobile. I wonder if the next time Tesla announces something and Musk spews lie after lie about it that people will start to cotton on that nothing he says can be taken at face value.

It's definitely weird all right. Starts off like you're riding Elliot's bike into the sky and ends up like some hallucinatory trip to ET's home world which is all neon and tie dye with bad animatronics, talking mushrooms and other weirdness.

Despite being trippy it's actually a very nice ride to go on because the lines tend to be short and it's blessedly well airconditioned with the line mimicking standing in a pine forest at night. I can't see the Florida ride lasting much longer because it must be over 30 years old by this point. I think it's only gone that long because that section of the park has been relatively static in terms of development.

I've been using it on and off since 1994. I still have a slackware dist on CD with the 1.1 kernel. I think Linux is great although I still prefer to use Windows, and Linux via WSL which is my optimal set up these days.

Seems highly unlikely but we'll see.

That's more or less it. Linux Torvalds hates the different package managers and dependencies in different dists and versions of dists. He claims it's virtually impossible to ship products that just run on some random dist and cites his own sideproject which is a sea diving app where he builds binaries for Mac OSX and Windows but can't for Linux. He also praises Valve for using containers.

In theory it means slightly larger binaries, but the flipside it means Steam for Linux runs on a lot more dists, and so do the games and it's far easier to test they actually run.
