First off, I am against the death penalty. I suppose there are hypothetical scenarios were there may be some remorseless person who committed horrific crimes and for whom there is absolutely no doubt of guilt, and maybe then we can justify removing them from the world permanently. But in the real world, the death penalty is not limited to such scenarios. Innocents have been and continue to be executed. This is unacceptable.

But, if we aren't going to eliminate it, at the very least we can avoid unneeded suffering during it. As I understand it, nitrogen asphyxiation is a comparatively peaceful way to go. So this headline smells of bullshit to me.

Just like Daddy puts in his drink every night.

And then he gets mad.

For what she did on the floor of Congress, yes.

But she also emailed it out to her supporters. That ain't "speech or debate in either House"

If I had listed possible events in order of likelihood, "a new game taking direct inspiration from Wand of Gamelon" would have been just after "aliens demand humanity's belly button lint".

Well as far as adblocking goes, mobile FireFox already supports uBlock Origin.

My philosophy on it, specifically for this game, is that the game is so damn huge to start with it's impossible to see and experience all the content in one or even several playthroughs. I'd rather just put my completionist impulses aside, think of the game more as "D&D" than a video game, and just go forward, no matter what happens in game.

But that's just my thought for this specific game. As has been stated several times - it's your save file, do what you want with it. No wrong way to play.

He also at least votes for a Dem Majority Leader and, coming from West Virginia, the alternative would be a full-fledged Republican.

I don't like the guy, I disagree with him majorly, but he's better than the only likely alternative.

But you wouldn't just double it for each state. You'd increase the total number of House seats, and then portion them out according to the populations of each state. That's how it was always done before they capped the size of the House.

Currently, Wyoming has just one House seat. If you double the number of total House seats, Wyoming still only gets one. They currently have a larger impact on Presidential elections than they should if it were decided strictly by population, and that's due entirely to the Electoral College and the cap on the size of the House.

PineTime.

It doesn't do very much, but the things it doesn't do aren't things I'm all that interested in anyway. What it does do, it's kinda hit and miss. But it is cheap as hell for a smartwatch and fully open source, so were I more inclined to code I could potentially improve some of the ways it does things.

Nice. I use an AutoHotKey script that presses Shift if idle time hits one minute.

Have never had anyone actually comment on idle time; it was a preemptive measure.

There are still parts of the Republican party not fully in Trump's cult who would be looking for an alternative because they are still so brainwashed that they couldn't bring themselves to vote for the "evil socialist demoncrats". Those are the people Trump stands to lose.

13/20, but there was a lot of guessing in there. I would have believed any of them going either way.

Assuming the victim does not use 2FA on their Bitwarden account

A pretty tall assumption given that we're already talking about someone who knows to turn on 2FA for other things. If someone knows about 2FA and password managers, they'd be insane not to have 2FA set up on the password manager itself.

Microsoft already has their cloud gaming set up as part of GamePass. Xbox games, streamable to phones or whatever device.

Certainly fair.

And yeah, I personally use Bitwarden with 2FA on the Bitwarden account, but don't store any 2FA tokens in Bitwarden, handling them all separately. Don't want all the eggs in one basket.

Though given I have fingerprint access on phone and computer for bitwarden, i suppose that one basket is my finger. But if someone is taking my finger, I've got more immediate concerns than my passwords.

Well you try buying groceries somewhere that doesn't completely suck for one reason or another.

At least at Publix I can get groceries and a tasty sandwich without hating the whole experience, so long as I simply don't remember that a small portion of my money ends up going to shit like this.

Edit: I don't have a Costco nearby

Yep. Add in shipping to the US, and it's still less than $40.
