I haven’t read the article, probably won’t, doesn’t really interest me. But I thought the title pretty clearly implies you don’t play as the shooter. I’m surprised others didn’t interpret the same way.

Calgary has reversed that decision, but hasn’t added flouride back to the water yet. It’s expected in Q1 2025.

It’s especially useful if you find a window is stuck off screen after disconnecting a monitor.

can’t recall if it’s out of the box or if I configured that

That’s out of the box. No configuration necessary. The default behaviour in Plasma when pressing the Windows key is to open the application menu where you can start typing to find what you want. In fact it’s kind of a pain to disable that, and will sometimes re-enable itself randomly as I recently found out (I prefer WIN+D to open the app menu from my i3 days, and I work in an RDP connection to a windows machine where I would prefer to be able to just press WIN to open that menu and not KDEs menu.)

What’s worse is that YouTube sometimes doesn’t do that, i.e. when you hit back it shows the same list from the cache or something. It gives you hope and makes it worse on those occasions when it does fully refresh on back.

I can’t really explain it. I was as surprised as anyone when I realized I can’t remember the last time I saw a mosquito.

It’s Calgary, Canada. The climate is fairly arid, but there are definitely mosquitos in the area. I just haven’t seen one in a long time, despite being outside for at least a couple of hours every day.

I suspect if I walked along the river more I’d see some though.

I really only know of this word because of Scott Manley

They exist here. I just live inner city and never see them.

I can’t actually remember the last time I even saw a mosquito.

It’s the same story in US and Canada. Illegal, but not really enforced. And when it is enforced the the penalties aren’t strong enough to be a deterrent.

It’s against FTC regulations in the US too. The trick is getting them to enforce it.

The Y2K issue was real, but a lot of people spent a lot of effort to fix it before it became a problem. The dire warnings were exaggerated, it was never going to end the world, but the problem really did exist and it really could have led to some pretty serious issues especially with financial institutions.

If you’re the type of gamer that gets sucked into Rimworld, then Dwarf Fortress will very likely consume you.

I’ve never heard of that type of action occurring anywhere else.

There were a couple of high profile cases in Canada a while back.

That user may be using Sync, which last time I checked only supports the reddit style spoilers.

The sword fighting becomes way easier once you unlock some skills through training. The first time I played I didn’t know about the training and it took me way longer than it should have to figure it out. Maybe you already know about that, but just in case you missed that like I did at first, thought I’d mention it.

I’ve started carrying it more recently during times when money is tight. Helps me keep from overspending.

Even us elder millennials often don’t carry cash. I’m so elder, I might as well be gen-x. And until recently it had been years since I carried cash.

That deck appears to have a kickstand. It’s hard to see, but it’s just to the right of the cable.
