Remind me of that South Park episode where everybody was saying nice.

I listen to We Like to Party so much that it is basically impossible for it to be stuck in my head.

I raise you this banger:

Jerk it

Great, now it's stuck in my head too. Thanks.

Exactly. It's gotta be a dildo

And no one gets that much money without screwing over other human beings hardcore. There are no innocent or ethical billionaires.

I'm currently playing a Halfling Sorcerer, and next session will be a quick visit home.

I have a theme with this guy, that i'm trying to make as many LOTR jokes as possible.
Like his extended family are all named after the LOTR hobbit names list, he's from a place just called The Shore.

My issue right now is his closest friends, i got Samuel and Mary, named after Sam and Merry, but i can't think of a way to twist Pippin

FOH, Spicy shrimp and grits is a fantastic brunch.

The bagel you posted isn't bad either, but it needs some black pepper on the salmon.

So this is a win-win for average people?

but i don't want a gross used chair

Reddits month may be going from bad to worse.

Hackers from the BlackCat ransomware gang, also known as ALPHV, are threatening to leak 80 gigabytes of confidential data from Reddit that they claim to have stolen during a February breach, according to a post from the group on the dark web, which was reviewed by CNN and an independent cybersecurity expert.

In their post, the hackers claim they first demanded a $4.5 million payout for the deletion of the data and our silence in April. After receiving no response, the group said it followed up on Friday with an additional demand: Reddit should withdraw a controversial new pricing policy that has sparked a protest from some of the platforms most influential users.

Reddit CTO Chris Slowe previously posted about a security incident that took place in early February. In the post, Slowe said the companys systems were hacked as a result of a sophisticated and highly-targeted phishing attack, with hackers accessing some internal documents, code, and some internal business systems. Only employee data was accessed, according to the post.

A Reddit spokesperson confirmed to CNN on Monday that BlackCats post relates to the February incident. The spokesperson reiterated that no user data was accessed, but declined to comment beyond that.

More than 6,000 Reddit forums went dark last Monday in what was supposed to be a two-day protest over the companys plan to begin charging steep fees for some third party apps to access its platform. A week later, more than 3,500 Reddit forums remain dark.

While the ransom note appears to support the protestors cause, some experts are skeptical of BlackCats actual motives.

I suspect that ALPHV doesnt actually care about the API pricing. They simply want future victims to see how much ongoing harm they can cause to increase the likelihood of them deciding that payment is the least painful option, said Brett Callow, threat analyst at cybersecurity firm Emsisoft, who reviewed the post on the dark web.

BlackCat, for its part, said it does not expect Reddit to meet its demands.

We are very confident that Reddit will not pay for its data, the group wrote in the post on the dark web. We expect to leak the data.

My phone can charge from 0 to fill in like twenty five mins and last a day and a half I don't want or need this stupid shit

71 for "Cool", 69 for "Heat"

Anyone thats not white, straight and born in America is going to have a hard time in this country

When I was in college. It was this dude ...my next door neighbor lol. Who would watch porn in the computer lab.

Some people spill stuff on there phone, some take them in/near the shower or bath, some people like to have them near the pool or wherever they go swimming, doing the dishes, etc.

Definitely not only the toilet or yacht. O.o

Battery degradation is pretty much my #1 reason to replace a phone.

Opt out of that then

The boomers are trying to make their final years look like their first

People who don't like *insert entire culture's food here* tend to be picky eaters. Just a failure of parenting on the part of your parents. Its especially bad if you don't like Korean food though as they have incredibly diverse offerings that are particularly appealing to an American palette.

How else you gonna chop that gross shit off without that stupid baby moving around? >_>

• European Parliament passed a change to a law that will force replaceable batteries on all gadgets, including smartphones.
• By law, phones in the EU by 2027 will need to have batteries you can replace with no tools, which means no adhesives.
• This could fundamentally change how smartphones are designed.

Way back in the day, most smartphones had batteries you could easily swap. You didnt need tools or a heat gun, either: you could just pop off the back, take the battery out, put in a new one, and go on with your day. It was common to see people with a spare battery in their pockets. Nowadays, thanks to most smartphones being two chunks of glass glued to a metal frame, this is no longer possible.

However, European Parliament may have just brought those days back. In a sweeping new change to a previous law, MEPs voted 587 to nine to force all gadgets to have easily replaceable batteries. When we say easily, we mean it: MEPs say this should not require special tools, which means no adhesives.

Without adhesives, OEMs from Apple to Google to Samsung will need to drastically change how they design phones. The glass sandwich design method would almost certainly need to stop unless companies could devise a way to keep the parts connected without adhesives.

Obviously, this law only affects the EU, but OEMs wouldnt likely design phones specifically for the EU. Just like with an EU law forcing Apple to bring USB-C to iPhones (which will likely happen this year), this EU-specific law will have ripples across the world.

Thankfully, OEMs dont need to change anything quite yet. The law goes into effect 3.5 years from today, which means early 2027. Its possible the EU could extend that time limit, though, should OEMs need more time.

The law approved today is mostly an attempt to cut down on environmental waste. The MEPs make it very clear that they want the tech industry to be more responsible about batteries. It also includes statutes related to recyclability, minimum levels of precious metals that must be obtained from recycled batteries, and stricter waste collection targets.
