Might only be the whistleblowing stuff. Might not. Guess you'll have to kill me to find out.

Try using a tab suspend extension, something like 'auto tab discard'. Firefox has one built-in, but it's not aggressive enough.

Hear me out on this: Let's leave guns to the undeniable 'this is for killing' variety. We need to reduce the normalization that it's ok to draw a gun and this would only serve to have a stronger 'gun first policy' to encounters. I don't want to be in a world where I hear gunshots and have to question if it's non-lethal or not. "It's ok. I only heard one shot." Is not the next step I want to see.

You might be interested to know that there are several hardcore modding scenes, where the point is to mod the game for fun. The mod guides are updated every month or so and includes thousands of mods. It takes days to install, and actually playing is optional. In most cases, a new save is required every update, so modders keep an additional playable state if they actually want to play the game.

Lexy's LOTD is my fav one, it's only over a thousand mods, has very detailed instructions, and a very friendly community.

Similar. Two cases. First was taking charge of the entire Bases secure network upgrade because I was the only one who knew how the new devices worked. I ended up having to attend a meeting with a General and his staff and had to be chaperoned by an E5 because I was only an E3 at the time.

The second was my entire time working in White House Comms. Can't talk much about it but I'm sure you can imagine how out of place it would feel.

Keep in mind that part of the reason I think they've given up is because there's no reason to believe the promises made will ever be delivered. They may care about taxes, but you'd probably get more engagement by making an AI generated tiktok video of a dinner table splayed with food in the image of rich oligarchs. There just isn't much left but the jokes, it's not code - it's that if everything is going to be bullshit, it might as well be entertaining.

Everything has to be a meme. Lower taxes, healthcare, or racism isn't exciting. Couches, weird, eating pets and out of context outbursts get way more engagement. Mostly, because people have given up.

I was sitting at the doctor's office and overheard an old man claim Harris was so stupid that she couldn't figure out how to use a vacuum.

It broke MY brain trying to wrap my head around that one.

Let's not also forget the fleet of passenger aircraft for distinguished persons, maintained by the military, with everything custom made and embroidered with presidential seals and produced in the USA and run through vigorous inspection to prevent microphone or pagers or something inside your soap dispenser.

You said you'd be making them all in the same style, I assumed you meant feeding from the top vs from the bottom/underfloor.

Looks good! Feeding from above will help with pipes, just remember to keep them full and don't over consume.
