It doesn't get brought up because it's not useful to anyone politically. Already support abortion rights? Well then lower crime rates is just a positive unintended side effect of a policy that grants women their inherent right to bodily autonomy. Already oppose abortion rights? Then you probably don't care about crime rates because you already think that abortion itself is a crime.

Newer Dell laptops I've worked on have them soldered on to the motherboard.

People tend to think of digital things as unchanging and permanent but that isn't really the case. I'm fascinated by the concept of bit rot and other ways that digital things can disappear or degrade over time.

It's good that flash is not still an essential part of the modern Internet but its death did firmly cut off an entire era of Internet culture that cannot be experienced in quite the same way.

I have yet to have any success with Bottles but I assume it's because I don't know what I'm doing and I'm trying with software known to be difficult.

I remote into a Windows PC for Fusion 360 and Affinity suite but if I could get those working on Linux I'd be in really good shape.

I don't understand why (even while I sense it happening to me in real time) but it seems like part of getting older is enjoying drinks that are shitty on purpose.

Get a long crazy straw and then squeeze the bag under your arm like the patron saint of bagpipes and alcoholism.

I don't piss at all, I just hold it in until it solidifies then squeeze kidney stones out like forcing a bunch of caltrops through a tube of gogurt.

Lemmy is definitely the most pain in the ass service that I self host. Most annoyingly when something goes wrong I can't just go on Lemmy until I feel like fixing it.

Maybe it really is just playing GameCube and exchanging high fives.

I'm torn because its inclusion feels like recency bias but I wonder if over time it will seem even more ill advised considering how much it does to try to set up a Kang storyline that never got off the ground.
