Funny. As an American concerned about US controlled cloud hosting, I have been opting for Swiss and Icelandic options instead for years. (For my personal stuff)
Funnier still is that some of our clients are some of the largest firms in Europe and they are all opting to move to Azure against our very strong suggestions that they keep the systems in-house. Watch the EU pass on-shore hosting requirements. That'll be such a shit show.
I remember this one. I bought it when it came out right from the magazine rack at Walgreens (how I bought most of my comics back then).
Meme: It's ok.
Meme + title: Beautiful.
Yes...yes...YES...let the shitposts spread. The 196 network will one day rule the fediverse!!!!
Yes, those fucks. Thoughts and prayers.
The fact that it is impossible to tell how absolutely dripping with sarcasm my comment was is a testament to how useless, meaningless and ridiculous the words (and sentiment of) "thoughts and prayers" are.
So once more for the people in the back, to the parents who essentially killed their child I send them my thoughts and prayers.
My thoughts and prayers go to the kid's parents.
me, who rediscovered the power of naps
EDIT: Some time in my forties I stopped trying to ironman the day like I did in my twenties and embraced naps.

This will never cease to sting. Google Play Music was so good.
That lady missed her calling as an RPG author.

The law enforcement agent that has to review all the nudes I keep sending.
Shingles hit my elderly mother-in-law and it had severe cognitive consequences. It's an unnecessary gamble, but that's their problem.
Oh wow, the greatest Diablo IV and Path of Exile II player in the world, who totally didn't cheat and paid others to play his accounts for him, replied.
Rogue One was also good.
You forgot the theme park flop (Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge), and the catastrophic Star Wars hotel (Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser).
Also, it was her direct involvement (read "demands") that ruined the Grogu storyline and forced the shoehorning of The Mandalorian and Grogu into The Book of Boba Fett.
That's it. If Xi Jinping is Pooh then Elon is Stimpy from this day forth.
Finding a trustworthy, super-organized, and reliable personal assistant is like finding a goddamn unicorn.
Having someone take care of the details so that you can focus on what you are good at is invaluable. I hope you are appreciated.
It wasn't that much of a lie for Gen-X in tech. In the company I was with in Austin, we use to have a breakfast (from taco trucks or delivered). Employee significant others were welcome to join. You might think that it doesn't count because they were co-workers, but we were also close friends. All around the same age, working together, gaming together, partying together, etc. Even after we switched jobs, a lot of us continued to meet up for breakfast, and I am still close friends with most.
