Do you really not know who your family likely voted for, or your roommates? People like this don't need a registered ballot result to make an inference that lets them act violently; unless he'd had the foresight to play at being a Trump convert months ago, I think this story is extremely credible.

I've been trying to avoid soap labelled antibacterial for this reason, and it's tricky to even find any that's not labelled antibacterial.

Been wondering if they don't just slap the label on any soap, because it could be considered antibacterial by its nature. Apparently not?

Dead? Really? Cuz Portal and Minecraft are my kids' top two games!

Mine has been docked for months at a time. I recently started shifting it to be near the kids when they're home; but not undocking it wouldn't strike me as strange at all.

And if you've been letting Steam store your save data, you should find that your save files for most games will still be available in Linux! Mileage will vary per game of course, but jumping between OSes has been pretty seamless for me!

True! I've been too focused on our local politics lately!

Well, until the President decides otherwise, anyway.

My SteamVR games run poorly on Linux. They do run, but it's a much rougher experience than running them through Windows.

It's frustrating, because otherwise Linux is my primary gaming system!

Step away from hardware constraints for a moment, and consider the OS:

If the OS says a file is deleted, under no circumstances should the OS be able to recover it. Sure, certain tools may exist to pull it back; but it should be unavailable to the OS after that. And yet, apparently a software update was enough to recover these files. Thus, the concerns about data safety in an environment where the OS cannot be trusted to remove data when it says it has been removed.

I'd be happy with just the silver spoon, myself.

Straight to victim blaming?

The agreement that was a pop-up you could only accept?

My dog answered that before I got a look at it. Is that legally binding?
