Looking forward to the Republicans simply ignoring the vote and then either being backed by the supreme court or ignoring the supreme court's order.
BREAKING: Rep. Adelita Grijalva signs the Epstein discharge petition, serving as the 218th vote to force the bill to the floor for a full vote of the House.

OMG some patch in the past week or so has fixed this! I launched notepad.exe today and the language switcher did not appear! Miracles can happen!!!
OK, it's not random. Launching notepad.exe makes the icon reappear with a "phantom" input language.
The way to remove the icon is to *install* the language and then remove it, leaving just en-AU. Launch notepad and it will reappear.
@jenmsft.bsky.social have you seen or heard of this behaviour?

It blows my mind that political parties are arguing *against* "net zero". It's NET zero! You can still do things to fuck the environment - you just have to do something else that compensates for it!
They're literally arguing to be able to fuck the environment without doing anything to help it.

A House of Dynamite was amazing, but it's hilariously unnerving to think about how the scenario would play out with the clowns the US has in some of those roles right now.

Having had a few in Korea, I dunno what I'm gonna do if I can't convince a cafe back home to make me a dirty Earl Grey latte. Life-changing.

Again, when you realise that his entire goal is to destroy the country, everything Trump does makes sense.

Android-using friends: what are you doing about Google storage with photos and videos? Sal has hit the 15 GB limit and Google's telling her she won't get Gmail messages if her storage is full. Are you paying Google for more storage? Is there a cheaper family plan?

Guess who managed to tear off two fingernails while hurriedly trying to pull our luggage off the shelf when the train arrived at our station?
One panic attack and embarrassing faint on the platform later, I'm bandaged up and ready for Jeonju!

Today we learned about the May 18th uprising in Gwangju back in 1980. Horrifying. And even more horrifying to think the US is headed in exactly the same direction.

Also, the Lenovo IdeaTab Pro that I bought for under $400 has been amazing this trip. Great screen, sound and battery life. Only thing it's missing is a proper kickstand rather than the folding cover.
