More than half of PC handhelds sold are Steam Deck.

Conservatives keep saying they’re for the common people.

They are, they just didn't say ouotloud that are for the common people being jailed/deported.

Defense attorneys claim that some of the body cam footage is missing including 20 seconds of when Mangione was being questioned by a police when an officer placed his hand over his body cam and the 11 minutes during which the backpack was transferred from the McDonalds to the Altoona Police Department Precinct. The motion goes on the state that once that officer’s body cam footage resumes, it shows her immediately re-opening and closing the backpack compartments she already searched and then opening the front compartment of the backpack “as if she was specifically looking for something. Instantly, she ‘found’ a handgun in the front compartment.”

As for the 2nd, the gun was only "found" after the body cam had been off for 11 minutes, and only at the police station.

Rockstar was a PC gaming company before they went into consoles. GTA 1 and 2 were made for PC before being ported to console.

Create your own 2nd/3rd account, and use the same emails but with the + option. https://www.streak.com/post/gmail-plus-addressing-trick (This works with more than just Gmail) So your main account is main@whatever.com, then your second account would be main+1stKid@whatever.com. This way you don't have many different emails to manage, but Steam (last I checked) will see these all as different so everything can be managed by you.

Your plugs look like they are an anime frowning girl with a sweat drop on their forehead.

I'm curious what CPU was in it, as there aren't any CPUs listed from 2019 that aren't supported.

These were done in crowded, enclosed areas. And not very discreetly.

It is banned under the same laws and rules, but since it takes less than 2 seconds to take a hit and blow it downwards so it doesn't show on cameras, you have to be there the moment it happens or they will deny it was then. I see kids vaping on the bus often, and this is what they do. Yes, kids. I see 12-14 year olds doing this. I've also seen people doing big vape clouds in bars, beside the signs saying no vaping.

Things have changed since then. Steam not only has a Linux client, but also has Proton which loads most Windows apps (it's marketed for games, but in reality it will work on Windows apps).

AI Summary:

Apple's first-quarter earnings report revealed a mixed performance. While overall sales increased by 4%, iPhone sales showed weakness, particularly in China, where they declined by over 11%. CEO Tim Cook attributed this partly to the lack of Apple Intelligence in China and inventory changes. However, the Mac, iPad, and Services categories saw significant growth, with Services up 14% and both the Mac and iPad up 15%. The company reported $36.33 billion in net revenue, a 7.1% increase from the previous year.

AI summary:

The article discusses two new side-channel speculative execution attacks targeting Apple silicon, named SLAP and FLOP. These attacks were presented by security researchers from the Georgia Institute of Technology and Ruhr University Bochum.

  • SLAP (Data Speculation Attacks via Load Address Prediction): Exploits Apple Silicon's Load Address Predictor, potentially leaking information like emails and browsing history.
  • FLOP (False Load Output Predictions): Exploits Apple Silicon's Load Value Predictor, potentially leaking sensitive data like credit card information and location history.

Apple has acknowledged these vulnerabilities but stated they do not pose an immediate risk to users. The researchers have not observed these attacks in the wild yet. Users can mitigate risks by disabling JavaScript in Safari, though this may cause compatibility issues with websites
