I wouldn’t recommend Pop!_OS at the moment. They just added their new desktop environment (COSMIC) and there’s a lot of bugs.

Also, if you’re wanting to play newer games that need driver updates you may have to wait due to the slow update cycle of distros based on Debian/Ubuntu

Sony is a close second, BTW 😁

Crunchyroll had a major security breach earlier this week

Or just don’t post them to begin with

Nobody is dying horribly from emphysema because they accidentally contacted microplastics two decades ago.

Aren’t the vast majority of people suffering cancer from asbestos exposure the people that worked with asbestos for years? From what I understand, you’re very unlikely to suffer from a single exposure.

That being said, asbestos is fucking everywhere. Veritasium recently did a video on it, and a lot of the soil around Las Vegas just naturally contains it, and gets kicked up by vehicles, construction, wind, etc.

If you’re referring to the study blaming colon cancer on processed meats, it’s a major reach.

It was an epidemiological study, which are notorious for poor controlling of variables. If the effect has a relative risk increase greater than 100% (i.e. doubles risk or more), then you can use the results of an epidemiologal study, but results less than that should be treated with a lot of skepticism. This particular study was only 18%, well within the error bounds of this type of study.

For contrast, the epidemiological studies used to establish a causal link between smoking and lung cancer had a risk increase in the ballpark of 10,000%

They were also pretty novel in their controversies.

They were the main ones throwing a hissy fit when GeForceNow wanted to automatically let you stream to any game you already purcgased on Steam. The game’s devs wanted GeForce to require everyone to purchase an additional copy just to stream it through their service.

The game devs also started selling DLC while the game was unfinished, which is also shitty. And we’re not talking skins either.

Or just blow up the scale so every piece is 45lb. Work out both the mind and body

Now I have the announcer from DCC in my head.

“B-B-B-B-BOSS BATTLE!!!”

Good. Let them burn and maybe Timmy Tencent will finally shut the fuck up

I disagree. With how it’s worded it could easily be embarassing to be accused of, especially in a public setting like a classroom

Also, if you want to do blacksmithing you can get started with a 12" long piece of railroad rail as the anvil, and you can make a gad forge for under $100

Same in the US unfortunately. The few public lands that you’re allowed to hunt in are overhunted

Tbf, season 1 of that show is honestly good. After that it gets really stale and boring though

Eh, depends on the context. If the dude is the classic, painfully obvious neckbeard I don’t feel too bad. If they’re mostly a regular Joe with low confidence, yeah the lady should have worded it better

Let’s not get too hasty

Inversely, there’s “I’m bi, but…” To point out shit that can just be platonic that people keep trying to romanticize.

Like, why can’t I complement a friend on their good fashion sense without people assuming there’s some attraction there? It’s bullshit

Why bot both?

Reminds me of the AI-generated Seinfeld series that ran on Twitch for a couple weeks before it was banned for making fun of transphobes. It was fun as a novelty, and was also a good meta-commentary on the quality of sitcoms in general. But I never considered continually watching it for entertainment

Did… Did you not read the ending?
