From the same supporters who will shoot themselves in the foot to own the libs, this is at a much larger level.

Also, a classic facist move. Get everyone to turn on you, then propagate "the world is out to get us", and once you instill that mentality on the people, it's easier for people to believe we're the victims, and we're fighting for our liberation.

I mean, I wear band merch all the time, which is basically t-shirts, hats and hoodies that advertise the band.

My old workplace (rip, got a acquired and the new company ran it to shit) was down the street from a daycare. It had discount plans for the daycare. During lunch/breaks, some of my co-workers would spend time with their kids.

I thought it was a good best of both worlds. Still have the separation, but still get to spend time with your kids.

The main benefit of it is a lot of the MAGA movement will wither with him gone. Someone will be a successor to it, but I don't think anyone is as influential to that movement as he is.

Cradle of Filth is one of the worst examples to bring up, lol. Principles of Evil Made Flesh and V:Empire is mostly about vampirism and satanism. They literally have albums (Cruelty and Dusk) about Elizabeth Bathory sacrificing children in rituals to Satan to keep her youth and so many songs in Midian have Anti-Christian themes including a protagonist in one of the songs burning down a church.

But agree with you, only a small fraction of metal is satanic, it's mostly limited to a small subsection of Black Metal. Although... the wiki page for Early Black Metal in Norway is always a fun read. :)

It's probably mixed, and no real general consensus. I'm sure there are people welcoming Americans, I'm sure there are people annoyed by the new influx of people, but I'm sure most people don't care at all or don't even know Americans are moving to it.

They're gonna blame the dems for anything bad, and their base is gonna rally behind that.

You know what? I might even ring that bell icon to be notified.

With the new Mac, on the otherwise of the laptop there is a 3.5mm combo jack, so you can still use your IEMs and headphones.

Depends on what kind of programmer.

If you're doing data engineering/science (more of an adjacent field), you need to know linear and probability pretty well to build models, or have data harvested in ways that can be put into vectors.

If you're doing relational DB stuff (like SQL) set theory helps a lot.

Basic boolean operations in general is also good to know. You don't need to go too deep in the weeds of boolean math unless you're also doing a lot of hardware-level stuff.

Any field you go into (not just programming), I would say just basic math for regular financial competency is good to know. Also to analyze your budgeting, your costs, time spent, effort needed, etc.

 

Hello,

I have an old macbook pro 2012. With Apple dropping all support for it, I want to run Linux on it. The caveat is - Im looking for the same feel as the experience with the macbook trackpad and keyboard.

I've tried a few different OS's on it, and each time, it runs as how you would expect. No issues with installation or anything, and most issues have a small or easy fix.

Being used to old habits with that laptop, I haven't had good luck with remapping things to give it it's old feel again.

By feel, I mean things like mapping trackpad gestures, some of the "function row" to map the same things as they keyboard has them, remapping some hotkeys to make use of the command button, etc.

I was wondering if there was an OS that has a lot of the things like mouse gestures, or the keyboard mappings of those laptops already built into it.

 

The spam bots in the GE and other hubs in every world are out of control. I had chat filters runelite plugin settings and other spam filter plugins that used to remove those most of the time, but as of late they're using accented characters (like à, è, ö, etc.) to bypass them.

Not a great solution to keep changing my public chat settings when I switch maps or activities. Also not feasible for me to stay in total level worlds for every content, as they're laggy sometimes or need to hop worlds.

I'm mostly in worlds/groups where people talk in English, but I never see Spanish or Dutch players take the time to type out accents when they type out words that have accents.

I don't really have a good perspective of other players who communicate in other languages in this game, but if no one actually takes the time to type them out in chat, is there a reason not to restrict chat them in chat?

Or what are some other ideas to get rid of chat spam/bots like this?
