Did you watch the video?

sgibson5150 OP ,

Interesting how the reaction is split so far. It occurs to me that lots of celebrities have sold sketchy shit, but female celebrities get grief over it. Did Matt Damon get cancelled over his crypto Superbowl ad? Food for thought, guys.

Psycho? Really? Isn’t that a little harsh my friend?

Edit: Don’t downvote me. Use your words! I’m curious.

Edit #2: OK it’s on me. Saying “Don’t downvote me” is like wearing a “kick me” sign. I don’t care about the karma. I’d prefer comments. Or downvote and then comment. 😆

If she’s a liar, she’s lying to bougie white women. She runs a business. What about her is especially egregious? Indulge me if you would. I’m genuinely curious.

That’s capitalism. Was the George Foreman grill a high quality product?

Edit: Had an extra “was”

sgibson5150 OP ,

Sure, but everybody is hustling somebody. That’s the world we live in. What about her hustle makes her worse than others?

sgibson5150 OP ,

I’m sure that’s true. Can you see my point, though? How’d Gwyneth Paltrow get to be Super Hitler? 😆

Did you watch the video? I thought Sean was great.

Look, of course it’s snake oil. But think about this. John McAfee sold more snake oil than anyone. Some people think he’s a folk hero. What’s the difference?

Pfft I wish. I’m one bad day away from asking people if they want fries with that.

In terms of headlines that make my blood run cold, this one is right up there with Microsoft signals renewed interest in Windows.

Edit: I discovered yesterday that this feature is already in the Roku app and it’s actually kind of nice. Now I’m even more suspicious. 😆

Maybe it’s a collaboration with David Cage.

I’ve been using the Panorama Tab Groups add-on for years, which (as I recall) is pretty similar to the native stuff they inexplicably removed back in the day. It’s currently unmaintained and a little janky in spots but perfectly usable.

I’m fascinated that at the time of this writing, this post has 17 upvotes and 41 downvotes. The article is consistent with other reporting I’ve seen recently on this topic and it would seem to fit the community. Why all the downvotes?

sgibson5150 ,

This sounds fairly plausible. Depressing, but plausible.

Recently I followed this guide on my late 2013 retina MBP and ended up with a fully working system. Used the latest Ubuntu [edit: 22.04 LTS Jammy Jellyfish] at the time. No hiccups that I recall. I’m not a Linux expert but I am familiar with installing and configuring Debian and Ubuntu. YMMV.

After letting the poor thing gather dust for several years, now I use it most every day.

My credit union’s web site looks like a MySpace page. They don’t even offer freaking 2FA. Been meaning to transition to cash management account but such a PITA.
