It's so funny going through the control panel, getting to more and more esoteric settings, and seeing the UI getting older and older. I ditched Windows after Windows 7 but remember seeing menu themes that looked like they haven't been updated since Windows NT
+1000 for Bobby Fingers. Clearly you have good taste.
thanks i hate it
I was pretty sure this was going to end with "In 1998, The Undertaker threw Mankind off Hell In A Cell, and plummeted 16 ft through an announcer's table."
If I had to guess, i think most of it comes down to not wanting to understand how society works, and finding it easier to think everything should come for free to them. If I couldn't afford my car payments and someone told me that if you're a sovereign citizen, you don't have to pay, I could see how desperation could lead people to think they could get out of obligations. There's also probably a large group of influencers and scammers who are incentivized to spread this misinformation, which is how it spreads.
It's also likely that for minor infractions, they're let off with a warning from an officer who doesn't want to deal with them, and this emboldens them to think they're correct in how society functions, until they get an officer who won't put up with them, or do something so egregious, it can't be ignored.
Another DUI hire
They even don't support HTTPS on the older articles for that authentic 2009 internet
If you could change three small historical events by going back in time, what would they be and why?
11/22/1963 spoiler
Although kinda the opposite, the book 11/22/1963 is about a time traveler who stops the JFK assassination, but then returning to present day, finds the world in ruins because JFK lived and bipartisan/international sympathy over his death never happened, so the cold war escalated to the point of nuclear war, and present day was like the world of Fallout.
Impossible to say, but it's possible the reverse could be true, and if Regan died, the USSR could have seen an opportunity and attacked, starting mutually assured destruction?
Thanks! also lol @ that fairness meter
I haven't seen a lot of his movies, but I thought his acting in the first season of Umbrella Academy was really good. To each their own I guess.
