I’m going to say all LG laundry stuff must not be created equal. We have two washing machines at work and they both break every month . The only tech I can think of that’s worse are HP printers.

I fix ours (not my job, but it’s a good mental break from regular work), I start a new job next month and my boss asked what he should do about them.

Wait until they break and get something else, they’re not worth fixing. It’ll be cheaper and less downtime to buy something good.

We should not care so much about ourselves and care more about the world

Capriglione expressed a desire to ejaculate into cookie batter intended for a bake sale one of his daughters was participating in

“His fantasy was that — when no one was looking — that he would produce ‘baby gravy’ to put into the cookie batter before they were baked, because it was a turn-on for him,” she said, claiming that he enjoyed the idea that “all of the girls in the neighborhood would be consuming” his ejaculate.

Is there anything to him shooting a Blackstone CEO , or was that random?

Honest question as I haven’t been following this much.

Good, this bullshit has never made a compelling argument

In its defence, Google argued that since it was not based in Uganda and had no physical presence in the country, it was not obliged to register with the PDPO, and the rules on cross-border transfers of personal data did not apply to it. However, the regulator rejected this argument, determining that Google is a local data controller since it collects data from users in Uganda and decides how that data is processed.

By 10am on Friday, data suggested an extra 66,000 internet users in the UK had begun using the dark web.

“People should be aware that children and adults who use [certain software] to bypass age checks will not benefit from the wider protections offered by our online safety rules.”

Genius

The case was reportedly quite damning and ended up going nowhere.

I haven’t seen any sources yet that say that’s why she was fired though, it could be. It seems more likely that trump hates her dad and wants to install another loyalist.

Wired did a piece on this, but there isn’t much more information in it than this one

No, the writer freely admits it is their fault. They try to get a new case, but it’s no longer available. The problem is lack of first party support and third party options.

The same as whatever those ai pins were called.

There should be laws specifying minimum support times and open sourcing code and hardware after that.

Yep

They believe she received around 385 million baht ($11.9m; £8.8m) over the past three years.

Organized religion is just tax free graft

I know this doesn’t matter anymore, but I thought you couldn’t depart to 3rd countries unless someone arrived from there.

And yes, I read this bit

Last month, the US Supreme Court cleared the way for the Trump administration to resume deporting migrants to countries other than their own.

Doesn’t it violate international law?

Participate in a free community repair event, where volunteer fixers will help you learn how to repair your broken or slow devices - and tackle the growing mountain of e-waste.

Keep in mind that some people are not actually interested in fixing their own things, they may not be able to because of disabilities too.

Informally I’m the guy in my hood who fixes shit, neighbors bring things to me all the time. Been doing it for years, only one person has shown any real interest in learning about it though. I always try to say “If it happens again, you can do this” if I think it’s safe for them to do so.

Some will take the initiative, some won’t. I also don’t want someone unqualified to just start poking around on Mains voltage or with powerful motors.

This administration has the moral integrity and intelligence of the average reality TV series. Just a bunch of intellectually stunted teenagers.
