I don't know which Dunkin they were going to, but the Dunkin I've been to the most in Killingly was near a major intersection. Depending on what side, they may not have had to cross one. Growing up, I was allowed to freely travel

Again, to clarify, I was not saying children in Eastern bloc countries were arrested for exploring. I was saying that authority was (at least viewed as by Western countries) beyond reproach. The infuriating thing isn't that the police

I was more drawing analogy between how above reproach authority was (or at least how it was portrayed to me) than about whether or not children could freely explore.

This makes my blood boil. It's obvious that Killingly cops are just bored assholes on complete power trips. In general, centralization of power leads to unequal society. There should be quick and immediate recourse against police offic

I pay for Kagi. I'd also pay for Orion if it were on Linux. It doesn't even need to be good, I'd still pay for it.

This is the kind of stuff I don't understand. On one hand: "Corporations are bound by fiduciary responsibility to maximize profit" On the other hand...private concerts. Could an argument REALLY be made that Microsoft execs ar

The fundamental problem is that everyone has a different reason for wanting plant-based meat/fake meat. So by any particular metric, they have failed. Some people want fake meat to be a 1:1 meat substitute because they love meat but ca

Obviously no-one's Christmas was upset. It's just strange seeing the concern and urgency over it go 0-100 that quickly. Perhaps there's something behind the scenes that causing this, that isn't obvious. Or maybe it'

How can the legislature approve changes when they are not in session? And WHY would they do that?

I don't understand. The bill was passed with an overwhelming, veto-proof majority. Then it sat on the Governor's desk until she made changes (after intense lobbying)? But the NY legislature is not in session, but the bill is signe

It depends. At my university, graduate students are state employees, but not standard state employees the way facilities/staff/administrators are. Those groups have a union, benefits, and pension plan, everything is very rigid. Gr

It's very much the opposite. Most good professors (and good teachers) would rather be doing research. Their research brings in millions and millions of federal funding, and colleges take 45%-65% off the top of each grand in the form of

There are two drivers for AMD on Linux. There's the open source driver, Mesa, and there's the proprietary AMD driver, called AMDGPU. I'm not certain which driver Valve is using on Steam Deck (I've never had to look), but
