Yes, I think that is a major part of it.
Your religion telling you you are a bad person causes some deep turmoil. And keeping the feelings (and the person causing those feelings) away likely offers him some temporary reprieve.
You need to talk to him. Possibly many times over a long period.
Disclaimer: All I have is what you told me. So this isn’t very authorative: He is gay (or bi), having troubles processing it, he cares for you as a person, and finds you attractive.
You need to talk to him, help him process his feelings, and possibly wait out how long it will take for him to do so (This might be a long time). He is attempting to do nice things for you, do a nice thing for him and be his friend and maybe take some shit from him while you help him sort his feelings.
Yes, you will need Veracrypt available on the computer in order to access the drive. However, you don’t need Veracrypt installed. There is a portable version available for both Linux and Windows.
If you have Veracrypt available on all machines in question, you can keep it simple and have the whole drive encrypted.
However, you can also bring the portable versions with you on the same drive: Make a normal (unencrypted) partition the size of the whole drive. (ex-FAT if you want it to work on both Linux and Windows) Then have the portable verion(s) of the program on it as well as a Veracrypt encrypted container file. The encrypted container will be a big, unreadable file on the drive that will require your password to unlock and use. Then store the rest of everything inside the encrypted container.
“Sentencing decisions are made by independent judges in line with sentencing guidelines,” said a spokesperson. “We are clear that punishments must fit the severity of the crime, and custody should always be considered for serious offences. This government is determined to do all we can to make sure victims have confidence they will get justice.”
rape
£26 fines
I see England has a very distorted view of how severe rape is. Clearly the teenagers ‘didn’t know what they were doing’ and ‘should be given another chance’.
Rape in England has been a major pain point for awhile now. The politicians setting the laws there seem to just not give a fuck.
American from the North East
they always say they aren’t white
In many lefty circles, White people are seen as lesser/placed lower. (And even formalized at many companies for hiring purposes.) So, instead many will say they are 3% Indian, referencing a blood test that (very likely) said so. Now they are a minority and not White.
so of course they are going to start charging for it
It’s a giant fuck you to Linux users as AMD only charges Linux users; AMD doesn’t charge Windows users for the entry-level tier.
Apparently I’m the Luddite here for sticking with the light switch on the wall that has always just worked. ;p
Google seems hell-bent on AI; DuckDuckGo lets you easily disable AI search. Try it out.
‘point of no return’
Prices return once supply is returned.
The Guardian is being very dramatic here.
Wealthy folks (in general) are heavily involved in property and consequently pay considerable property taxes. This is something everyone is quite equal on.
It is taxed as the post describes due to being a limited resource, unlike financial instruments, which are not a limited resource.
That type of shit is exactly why my only interactions with Windows now is via work. A place I am pushing for more Linux in and have made some solid headway on. Just things like basic file operations are faster. A benefit I would have never known about had it not been for the constant, abusive nagging Windows does.
I had just assumed things like emptying your recycle bin of 50,000 log files is slow…no, only on Windows.
‘Layoffs to focus on AI’ at this point seems to be the in-vogue way to distract investors from the poor financials that are driving the layoffs.
Whatever % of the general budget goes toward roads. Money is fungible, this has the same answer as: What portion of sales tax pays for roads, what portion of income tax pays for roads, what portion of land tax pays for roads?
The important part here is that you do pay taxes when you charge your EV. We don’t need to double tax EVs.
Iran mass-murdered the last protestors. They are scared the Iranian government is strong enough to do it again.
The suit says after the rollout, DoorDash delivery drivers were able to see when pizzas would come out of the oven. They would wait up to 15 minutes for multiple orders to be ready before grabbing them, slowing down delivery, according to the lawsuit.
Was it the AI system or the DoorDash integration that caused the issues?
EVs already pay electricity tax when they charge. We don’t need to double tax EV ownership.
And this is on top of the fact you pay an electric tax when you charge.
EVs in Washington are already double taxed!
Electric cars pay electricity tax. Gas cars pay gasoline tax. We don’t need to tax electric cars even more.
The Steam data is pretty noisy. We got a big spike two months ago and now the anomaly went away. The import part is to pay attention to the trend, something that is quite the oppose of “falls hard”:
