There are still subreddits though, they're just called communities

Why share a fake AI image to roast someone? There are plenty of real photos to laugh at

It's the male version of "foid" which is short for "femoid." I've never heard or seen "moid" before, like you say. I would have thought that female incels would be on the side of male incels, thinking that women were the problem, and the reason they couldn't sleep with anyone is because the pretty women are all sluts and taking all the men or something

I don't fully disagree but that was exactly Kira's thinking lol (at least at the start)

Ah they really had to add "found in North America" so this wouldn't fully work for non-Americans. Love it otherwise

I tried Niagara at first, but wanted something FOSS and switched to KISS Launcher which is similar. It's search-based, like Niagara. My friend bought the Niagara launcher and loves it, but it's not for me

Not very important but I remember it strangely well.

I was 8 years old. My teacher asked "What is one hundred times one hundred?"

I raised my hand and said "Ten thousand!"

"No, it's one thousand. Ten times ten is one hundred, and one hundred times one hundred is one thousand."

"But... It's ten thousand. Can I show you on a calculator?"

"No! Sit down, it's one thousand. I'm the teacher, I should know."

I later got a calculator and showed her and she didn't apologise.

The issue is, in practically, resumes don't have all indicators of race or gender removed.

There have been several studies that suggest that the name on the resume is enough of an indicator of race and gender to let bias creep in. Even on otherwise identical resumes. I'm not sure if we're going to remove names from resumes any time soon.

Still delicious

 
 

Whenever I update a package or the system via the Pop! Shop, or downloading a game or updates from Steam, my desktop constantly freezes and hangs. It works perfectly fine otherwise.

I was wondering whether this was common behaviour. It's a bit frustrating because it means I have to pick my moments to update to be when I can go do something else for a while and come back.

If I'm on a Discord call and am doing an update or downloading a game on steam, the freezes mean that my friends can't hear me and I can't hear them.

I've tried Googling it but haven't found anyone with this specific issue yet.

I run a medium-power gaming desktop rig.

Any advice on how to fix or improve this?

Update:

Here are my hardware specs. Sorry for not including them earlier; I was at work when I posted this.

  • Motherboard: Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd. X570S GAMING X
  • RAM: 32 GiB
  • CPU: AMD® Ryzen 9 5900x 12-core processor × 24
  • GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Ti
 

Mine is OOO for Out Of Office. I always misread it in my head like a ghost and it takes me a few seconds to process. It also doesn't translate to speech—you have to say the whole thing.

Interested to see if others have similar acronyms they beef with.
