What about recording phone calls? Especially calls that cross state lines? Which state’s laws take precedence? Does it matter who initiated the call?

Congress passing the “stimulus”:

“The great news is, Congress is not going to be the Grinch,”

No, instead Congress is going to be that one boss you had that gave out $25 Amazon gift cards instead of actual bonuses at Christmas, with a big smile on his face, saying he really appreciates all your hard work.

They’re going to pass this “stimulus” and then look at us like that one boss you had that always gave you a $25 Amazon gift card at Christmas instead of a real bonus and act like they’re being magnanimous.

I am extremely happy with this news. I’ve been watching Infinity Train with my nephew, and we had to use the PS4 app. I don’t know if it’s like this for everyone else, but on my PS4 it sucks ass. It’s extremely slow. You finish and episode and it stalls out bad. We started exiting out, closing the app in the options…

Just remove the channel and reinstall it. That fixed it for me.

I want a version that makes the audio all scratchy and tinny, with bits without dialogue being described by a man with a Transatlantic accent. Radio Drama Mode!

If I ever buy a candle that isn’t a fire hazard, then by god I want my money back!

Moddering community: Hold my beer.

Love Pratchett. Love Discworld. Have zero interest in this show.

But if those guys don’t feel depressed for more than three hours, they should seek medical attention.

On the bright side, at least the people with ED won't feel bad about it anymore.

Infinity Train is what finally got me to pull the trigger on subscribing to HBO Max. The awesome imaginative potential of the train cars and the denizens gives the show a definite Labyrinth feel, and I love the synthwave soundtrack. And the friendly-looking art style totally belies the real stakes being wagered in…

Not everyone can afford to drop several hundred dollars on the latest components every couple years to keep up. So when I build, I try to get the absolute best available so it will be a long time before I feel the need to upgrade again. This usually means that by the time I can upgrade, in order to upgrade one thing,…

I didn’t know the 5900s were coming out when I built my PC, so I got a 3900X. Which means that even if I am able to get one of the AMD cards before an Nvidia I won’t be able to take advantage of AMD’s Smart Access Memory. Which I understand is a minor boost, but still.

At the time one of my CC’s rotating bonus…

Not until I can get a goddamn RTX 3080. I’ve got a brand-new PC with a 10-year-old graphics card where a state-of-the-art GPU should be because of scalpers and their fucking bots.

Are you okay with undercover cops tailing someone? Staking out a place? No difference. Standard police practices, updated with new technology.

So they’re basically small, stealthy, cost-effective police helicopters. Doing things that police helicopters already do. So long as they’re not arming them with guns or tasers or tear gas or something, I don’t see a problem here.

Looks like someone’s bucking for a job in the next administration.
