  • People like to meme on the Logitech controller but that was honestly one of the smarter decisions made in that sub. Decade of development, hundreds of plugins, thousands of support threads for integration issues. It honestly sounds better than a custom control solution that probably would not get enough test cycles to check every possibility.




  • We can thank No Child Left Behind for the binge and purge learning that is the national standard now. Even though I was a child when it was enacted, my mom worked in education her whole life and often cited NCLB as the start of the downfall of education in our state.

    Teachers had to start “teaching to the test” instead of teaching what actually mattered. I don’t mean the classroom’s test, I mean the standardized test that we all had to take once a year and everyone hated.


  • Tin foil hat moment

    His advisers are likely telling him there’s a high chance that he loses the house and Senate in the midterms, and that he will likely be impeached again. While it’s unlikely he will be removed by the Senate, he may be setting up a scapegoat to step down as president “I’m too sick to be president” as soon as he passes the 2 year mark, so JD Vance can take over and still be eligible for 2 terms after.

    As a narcissist with no shame, this probably won’t happen, but if his (Thiel-backed) advisers are in his ear, he’s at least hearing it frequently.


  • When I finally got around to watching ep 9, we paused half way through to get up and feed the dogs or something, and then just never sat back down to hit play. This was 4 or 5 years ago now and I remember nothing about the movie. To me it wasn’t bad, it was just boring and not worth my time. I’ve had a hard time getting into any other Star wars shows since then. However I did pick up Galactic Racer and have been really enjoying it.








  • Our area is filled with local breweries, so I think a meadery as a local business would work.

    We do! We’ve been doing ~1 gallon batches which gives us 5 or 6 bottles of finished product. We’ve been buying honey from the big box grocers but I want to switch to buying from a local beekeeper.

    I’ve never tried using not honey, do you mean like Agave nectar or similar?
