He was an extremely controversial rapper, but way too young to die. Rest in Peace X. You've found peace
Portland's Clackamas Town Center used to have a beautiful skating rink, large fountains next to escalators, and foliage. This has mostly been replaced with a seating area, a larger food court, and more shops. It's considerably less appealing to just _be_ in, at least for me. I miss stuff like that.
I'm starting to get tired of the cookie-cutter Bootstrap and Squarespace templates taking over the web. This is a refreshing read, I like the comparisons it makes to brutalism in architecture.
"And until this feature is ready, we will no longer be deleting any executives’ messages. We should have done this sooner — and we’re sorry that we did not."
This says a lot about the current situation. What else don't we know?
They could at least use hacker typer on the screens :|
Site unaccessible from VPN. Guise I promise I'm not a spammer I just value my privacy :'(

I've always had great experiences with VLC, on any platform, for as long as I can remember using it. Cheers!
Oof, roofing sucks. I'm glad it helped you with your fear of heights though!
Random anecdote, I slowly got used to being high in the air on ski lifts. Kinda frustrating for me because I really wanted to snowboard but HATED the lifts. Still love snowboarding, still hate looking down. ._.
1. Don't give disagreeable or impulsive people reasons to hate you. So don't be too aggressive of a driver. Don't be too rude to an asshole at the bar or grocery store.
2. Avoid very dangerous areas at night
3. If you're ever suicidal don't own a gun.
The first comment is simple and insightful. 3 particularly struck a note with me.

not https
Figures.
In other words, intel is using its presence and weight to try and push a shitty solution, but one that is better for them marketing wise. Linus is flabbergasted to be treated like an idiot or a obedient drone that should apply such obvious abusive patches.
I see where the brashness comes from. Shady dealings on Intel's part.
A Man Who Forgot He Was a Rap Legend 9 years ago
Damn. I can't believe even Tupac paid homage to him, produced with Rick Rubin and all. What an interesting read...

This is a great table, a friend sent me a link to this a while ago and I ended up choosing a VPN from the list. I found that Mullvad and IVPN are a couple of the better choices based on the tables' criteria, though I went with IVPN. Their connection pool allows for 5 available devices now, not 3 as the graph says. Aside from the $100/yr pricing I don't have any gripes whatsoever.
Very descriptive and broad amount of information here.
