Chris Cornell of Sohndgarden, Temple of the Dog, and Audioslave

I’m also always impressed by Demi Lovato

They planned on trying a command to fix it but they didn’t expect it to work and said that October when the system reset happened was the best shot. Seems like the command ended up working though.

A shift of 2° at 12.3 billion miles means it’s now pointing about 430 million miles away from the earth. The likelihood that it would be pointing at one of the small handful of man made objects that are out that far is infinitesimally small. Imagine being in a filed 100 miles wide and spinning a bottle with a laser pointer on it and hoping it lands pointing at a single bottle cap at the edge of the field. That would be magnitudes more likely than this pointing at one of our objects. And even if it did, those also would have antennas pointed at Earth so they couldn’t receive the message without turning which might cause the same issue for them.

That’s not exactly true. He’s talked about buying it for a little bit and was trying to buy enough shares to be on the board. The board essentially made that impossible so that’s when he put out the joke offer to buy it outright. But then he entered legitimate legal proceedings making that offer official and agreed to pay a certain amount in damages if he withdrew the offer. Then he tried to withdraw the offer saying it was a joke. Then they said “ok, pay us the damages you agreed to” and he tried to pretend that wasn’t real. Then eventually agreed to buy to get out of paying damages (and getting nothing out of it) because he knew his excuse would never hold up in court.

So he wasn’t forced to buy it, he was forced to meet one of the two stipulations he agreed to in a contract, one of which was buying it.

I imagine they mean without a cloth, poof, or loofa. As a kid I would put body wash in my hand, lather, and rub it over my body. But it tended to use up soap quickly so either I had to add more soap part way through or the things I washed last didn’t get washed well. Which is why I switched to a poof.

If it’s the same people, they’ll probably get tired of it and move on. But the more we talk about it, the more likely it is that new people want to get in on the “fun”. I’d say to not make memes about the downtime and pretty much act like it doesn’t exist (as users, obviously the admins should take action as necessary to mitigate it and post to be transparent).

Agreed completely, it’s a workaround that requires some sacrifices.

Technically you can use Shortcuts to set whatever icon you want but it takes some effort to set up. And I don’t think it can use transparency so it’d have to take up the whole square (or out more effort into making the background of the icon match your background). And it’ll take a second longer to load the app as it goes through Shortcuts first

And, like janitors, they usually go unrecognized for the help they give and heavily criticized for anything that’s not perfect.

Personally, I wouldn’t want them spending precious development time on this when you could just block the community and set a reminder on your phone for whenever you want to unblock it.

Theoretically, the way it works is each one of those sales should go through until you hit the one that would push them over the edge to monopoly. You don’t block a purchase because of purchases you expect them to make in the future (unless stuff has already been signed)

Shit, as a Floridian, you may have just convinced me we should let them live. We already have too many people moving here.

Also, can we not support people putting no effort into the title? It’s really not hard to write a halfway decent title.

Funnily enough, the only reason I found this is I said when the PS5 released that it was too big and I’d wait for a slim version. But within the past few months I got impatient, thinking maybe it’d never come out. So this was like my final try to see if there was any news about it maybe coming and I found this article lol

Well it was very different a couple days ago. Things got shook up apparently, I don’t know the full story but a bunch of communities got wiped for some reason.

Well the main reason to block the purchase would be to prevent a monopoly so their point is that they’re far behind so the purchase will put them more on par. I don’t know if I buy that logic but that’s what they’re trying to say.

On the PS5? There are tons, including first party content like Horizon: Forbidden West and God of War Ragnarock. Most major titles that have released in the last 3 years are available on the PS5

TL;DR - Microsoft is fighting for their purchase of Activision-Blizzard to go through. Their latest argument is that they’re in third in the console wars (behind the PS5 and the Switch) and Sony will likely make more money from the PS5 Slim which they claim is releasing later this year at $399.

Ben & Jerry’s has been fairly socially progressive for a while, this is not their first campaign like this and it hasn’t seemed to really affect them yet. There’s also the fact that part of Bud Light’s problem was who their average consumer was. Not every company that does something like that will get the same treatment, but when you advocate for something that most of your customers will disagree with, it’ll cause you problems.

For example, take the Chicks (formerly the Dixie Chicks). They took a stand against the war in Iraq and made negative comments about George W. Bush. They were nowhere close to the first band/artist to this, but they saw the most backlash. But it’s because they were a country band so the majority of their fanbase supported the things the condemned.
