It's not something is recommend if you are a big gamer. Windows is still king there. Linux is making a ton of progress but if you want a gaming machine do windows.

That said Macs with the new silicon and unified memory absolutely crush in a ton of areas. I run an AI job that takes 45s-120s on my Mac air m1 and 5m in my Nvidia gfx card and 10m-12m on my Ryzen cpu.

I've been a prime member since they offered it. It's gone up a bit since I started but they've also added more value to it. Prime video is nice as an "extra". Prime subs for twitch. Same day, overnight, 2 day shopping either for free or trivial cost. Their returns are fairly painless.

I have never even thought about cancelling it. Is it that hard?

I guess I've also never experienced being "tricked" into subscribing.

The jail one seems a little "edge case" but the dead relative one is interesting. I think Google's "takeout" would help with that.

Can I ask why you think that's too short? It seems like a long time for no activity on an account. And they are fairly generous about defining activity.

This seems reasonable to me.

you have to be logged in to see that icon. I learned that as I was going to ask "what icon?! I dont see anything". I guess I was logged out, but when I logged in, the icon appeared.

Firefly definitely counts as lesser known. Op is on drugs.

I would pick Firefly, the Expanse, and Orville (for an unexpected great show.)

This is a fantastic response.

I play this game where I try to understand the ich_iel memes. I usually get close. Some of them are hilarious.

You are basically famous now. Will you sign an autograph for me?

Part of my rexxit so far has included me dusting off newsreaders and rss feeds again.

Im trying to find a good set up. Newsblur seems to be a front runner. I have nextcloud selfhosted, so I could use that with the $2.99 android app or I could pay for newsblur or feedly a few bucks each month.

Either way, having a self-curated feed of news these last few days has been pretty amazing. There is no algorithm tuned for engagement pumping news in my face. It's just stories, articles, YouTube videos, and podcasts that I want to see (on my terms).

I think you meant vim or neovim--the one true vim.

Lololol. The border situation that is objectively better than last year even with Title 42 ending and trending downward?

Also, these are encounters/apprehensions, which by the very definition of those terms means we are interdicting illegal crossers. So if you want to play the game of "record apprehensions!" Then, great. Kudos to the Biden administration for stopping the most people ever. More than Trump! More than Obama! More than Bush!

This is a waste of time and resources. For the party that throws "witch hunt" around, I can't think of a better term to describe this type of BS.

Fixing our immigration issues requires nuance and compromise. Neither of those things are an earmark of our current Congress or political climate.
