They’re specifically putting in place a measure to hide that they blocked payments. So the government books will read that it was properly paid but the money won’t go.
I wonder what they could possibly want to do with that money. Politically they could just lie about paying it. They’ve done that to great success already. So for what possible reason could they want to spoof the accounts book?

SCOTUS declares the impeachment was done wrong for some magical reason. Trump refuses to recognize it. And cue the pre-documentary Civil War that released recently.

We worry about that next quarter.

Break out the Whiskey, we’re done boys. It was a good run.

Great so it’s all rumint and TikTok isn’t involved in the talks…

The article tells you it’s a repair of a wash out. So it absolutely does have a connection.

Yeah that’s not going to work with this. They armored it just enough to say it’s armored.

And they aren’t bulletproof anyways.

So it’s strong enough to prevent timely rescue but too weak to protect you. That’s hilarious. Just perfect.
- Comment on Can’t upgrade your PC to Windows 11? Buy a new one, is Microsoft’s laughable solution 4 months ago:
That’s not what anyone is asking and if that’s what MS said then they’re just dodging the issue entirely. If you buy a motherboard on your own today TPM still wouldn’t be enabled. And their “support” never went farther than hardware manufacturers registering where Windows could pull driver updates from. So that’s just the worst take I’ve seen in this whole thing.
- Comment on There's a reason we aren't as harsh on the Steam Deck. Actually, a couple. 5 months ago:
My thing is if Sony wants me to pay computer prices, it better act like a computer. If it doesn’t and the trend continues with PS6 then that’s the end of me buying PlayStations.

Yup. Same here. Funny though, I seem to have enough attention span to learn about Linux.
- Comment on Despite Microsoft's push, Windows 11 and Edge see decreases in user share 10 months ago:
Hilariously, they won’t even let me upgrade to 11.
Can’t get people on 11 if you don’t make it available.

In a general sense it is though. The long-term group did as well as the lump sum group.

Okay, great. Then let’s actually do it. Everything below 100 percent implementation is a success so let’s stop handwringing over the size of the experiment and pull the trigger.

Eh, batteries aren’t hard to charge as long as it’s a small item like a flashlight.
- Comment on Survive the zombie apocalypse 1 year ago:
Flashlight, water purifier, respirator, and rifle (I assume with required things like ammo).
Nobody said how this plague spreads, for all we know it’s in the water or Airborne. Flashlight for scavenging and because it’s far more important to know if that’s a pile of scrap or a Zombie than it is to stay super stealthy. And Rifle gets you everything else you need.
