Not hard enough.

Stock keeping unit, a term commonly used in the business world for a combination of product and packaging.

Yeah it’s probably more like the monitors keep the same target demographic (business vs gamers) and major features (27" ips vs 32" OLED) but basically every other spec changes whenever new incrementally better panels come out. The TV industry tends to deal with this by tacking a year on the SKU. But they also have fewer SKUs generally.

The company itself, retailers, and business customers all need to be able to distinguish between different SKUs which vary in minor ways. Also I’m sure that a much higher percentage of monitors are sold to businesses than to consumers.

I mean there’s usually some sort of logic behind the name even if it’s not immediately apparent. I think monitors are just prone to lots of SKUs and frequent revisions as panels improve. Edit: HP for example has 146 items listed in their monitors section.

Seriously, if one guy cooked it up during a hackathon and then later left the company, I wouldn’t be shocked.

Uhh there are pretty good reasons we don’t do this today. Can you imagine if they suddenly hit turbulence? This seems like it was almost certainly photographed for advertising purposes too.

GOG doesn’t really do much to maintain the Galaxy app unfortunately. The idea of being able to put your entire library into one launcher is appealing but half of the plugins don’t even work. Even the steam one is broken out of the box these days (there is a newer version on GitHub, but I don’t think it’s official). So them not porting to Linux is unsurprising.

As another large footed individual, at least you’ve got the internet. Finding large shoes was really painful when you had to drive to brick and mortar stores and hope they stocked your size.

I mean, the counter-argument is, why spend time on issues that not even your own voters agree on? I think the majority of voters, on either side of the aisle, probably do not actually know any trans people personally, which is why it’s so easy for Rs to paint them as what they want. That lack of personal stakes makes it hard issue for people to get behind. And, frankly, I think there’s a lot of assuming in online discussions that every democratic voter is on board with the idea that sex and gender are different things, but I think in actuality rather a lot of them are probably either uncomfortable with the idea or just unsure. And then when you get into questions like whether prepubescent children should be able to medically transition…there’s just going to be a lot of people not on board with that, which is precisely why it’s a point Republicans hammer on.

Here’s what I think really gets to the root of why Newsom is doing this: a lot of those Democratic voters probably feel like they can’t express their true feelings on the matter for fear of being labeled a transphobe. So Newsom is, in essence, giving cover to those people (who are probably a significant portion of the liberal wing of the party) to say “maybe I’m not really fully on board with all this trans stuff yet,” specifically picking out women’s sports to rally around because polling shows that people are overwhelmingly against trans women participating in women’s sports. And it also serves as him separating himself from those Democrats, i.e. the ones who completely fucked up what may have been the most important election in the history of the country. This is a very calculated maneuver, and it probably has nothing to do with his personal beliefs - because he’s a politician and I don’t think successful politicians believe in much of anything. And I think you will see lots of other Dems do similar.

Not placing a value judgement on this, but you can probably expect a lot of Dems to distance themselves on trans issues. It’s a group of issues that takes up a lot of air, and divides the party, while uniting republicans.

And definitely not known for Dune or Spider-Man.

You can certainly get arrested for defying a court order. It probably depends on how far it escalates. I imagine a lot of these people eventually realize that they’re not going to get out of paying and give up.

Very low cost cosplay

This seems paranoid to a silly degree

Edit: Oh it’s police propaganda, no wonder it’s bad.

This is pretty common, banks are where new notes are released into circulation.

I think I preferred the design of the ps2, personally.

I would definitely call that blue.

Which reminds me of this

There’s a track skip but no fast forward in mine, unfortunately
