  • nah, you just have an abysmal reading comprehension and can’t understand the original comment

    What people are posting and linking isn’t “unproven”. They’re factual events that took place and their opinion on the matter which you seem to have a problem with both.

    I’ll go really slow for you… the facts… that people are speculating with… have been shown with sources. Some opinions… are that it looks suspicious… and wouldn’t be surprised… if the administration performed a false flag.

    Have a good one man, not worth continuing to communicate with someone that plenty of others have given up on.








  • So couple of points of confusion I’m seeing in this picture and comments below,

    1. a wall stud (2x4) is 1-1/2 inch wide, most builders use the cheaper sheetrock which is 3/8inch. A post-it is about 3 inches meaning those first marks/holes are at about 2 inches which is just barely past the window stud (1-7/8inch). Looks like you successfully found the next stud though. Fyi, those drywall fasteners that expand are more than enough to hold a curtain/rod and would probably fit into those previous holes if you want to move everything.

    2. A curtain being aesthetically pleasing is it’s 2nd job. Historically, it’s primary reason for existence is temperature regulation. A curtain should tuck against the wall on the sides and reach all the way to the floor to stop cold air from escaping. You can have the best of both worlds with a cheaper “to the wall” rod underneath your decorative setup (like 3$).

    3. You should be technically measuring, then purchasing the curtain for it’s intended length dependent on the style you want (from floor to ceiling is considered more “grand”). It’s not mandatory though as you can adjust the rod height and also the curtain length with simple hemming like with “iron-on stitching”.


  • I dislike that a lot of the games are tied to needing to have the steam client open, also the steam client is a non-controllable aspect on my computer that I own. I can modify (with extensions and browsers) any experience I have online…except steam. I also don’t like “leasing” games as that’s all they do.

    Last note is just I dislike putting any faith into a company to “do good” or to remain with their status quo. Companies are not “good”, they are a service provider and shouldn’t be anthropomorphized as such for being “good guys” or a company that "Cares"tm. The very fact that people are defending it by being sticklers of true definitions of a “monopoly” but hand-wave away the affects it has on the industry makes me concerned it will only become a bigger problem later on.

    My issue is the categorization which in turn paints a picture on a lot of OSes. Call it a Pop OS challenge, or debian challenge, etc. In people’s minds there is windows, ios, and everything else is “linux”. Just leaves a bad taste. Just like in your comment you’re broadly painting “linux” issues as if windows or such doesn’t also run into problems at times (especially with windows updates lately).







  • ok I would never use one and think it’s a horrible addition to the world (unless economic stability was achieved for the average citizen and a form of UBI was implemented with all social safety nets securely codified into laws), but…

    if something delivering my food showed up covered in broken glass and was all banged up I would have to wonder what apocalyptic-style pixar movie did this little one have to go through to humbly get my food to me. I would take it in and clean it up before I set it on it’s way again out into the wild.
