I only get two options: Alphabetical order and submission order. If I had random I would use it.

I’m a graduate student who does a lot of grading. Canvas gives me an option to: 1. Hide students’ names while grading and 2. sort in order of submission instead of alphabetical order, so I make sure to use both of those options to reduce any biases like that.

Honestly if I could put my own SSDs in MacBooks I would be very interested in them, especially as the Asahi project gets better. But I have my doubts that will ever happen.

If a country like the US had a lower violent dead per capita than other first world countries like France or Germany, I would agree with you.

It doesn’t have as high of a gun ownership rate as the US (no one does), but Czechia has some of the laxest gun laws in Europe, including allowing the concealed carry of a handgun like the US (at least 1 million Czechs have permits to own a firearm, a large portion of which conceal carry them for self defense) and they have a lower homicide rate than Germany or France (Source: World Bank)

Even as a supporter of gun rights, I don’t think that definitively proves that guns, on a societal level, prevent deaths. I don’t believe that in general. I do believe, however, that on a personal level, a well trained individual who sees the need to defend themself or people they love can prevent harm by owning a firearm. I do also believe that in a society (America) with a broken policing system, and an increasingly authoritarian Republican party that wants to crack down on my rights and the rights of people I love, I’d like the option to protect myself and my friends/family.

“No seriously like which part of your body is least useful and you’d be ok having damaged.” “Ohhh ok ok. Let me think” “…” “the head”

I’ve been playing the old metal gear games (the 2D ones) and I think a stealth action top-down Metroidvanua where you like sneak around and explore an enemy base to find more power ups to get you further would be pretty sick

Not trans tho sorry

Well at least I am focused

Seems like solar would be a really good solution in NM. Lots of land to build on, plenty of sun, and the population is spread out so large power plants like nuclear/coal would be less practical in that setting

I actually have one of these on the emergency kit my brother gave me for a car, he put it together in a like military style bag to keep in my trunk and it has a patch on it like that. It’s just a monochromatic version of the American flag, anyone I’ve known who has something like that doesn’t intend anything past that. Like others referenced, modern fatigues and gear in the US Military feature a similar monochromatic flag to that (usually black and the primary color of the uniform, like desert tan or olive drab) to save cost and make it blend in with the uniform better, so I think that popularized that to some degree in culture.

I understand the advantages of hydrogen since burning it doesn’t produce greenhouse gasses, but being around that much hydrogen makes me uneasy from everything I’ve read about how explody it is. I am sure the engineers responsible know what they’re doing though

Assuming it’s built on the same Tegra line of chips, there could be issues with back compat according to MVG. But there are ways around that that Nintendo could take, and they have a lot of incentive to make it backwards compatibile
