With the recent IPCC report, we should be paying much more in a carbon tax if we’re going to do anything to change the already shifting climate. source

I have been grinding the hell out of Destiny since Forsaken launched. I’m guessing I can take it easy during the next week? — Ishtar & Guardian Ghost (@IshtarCommander) October 15, 2018

The hard drive in my Windows machine that died and that I thought was the drive holding the OS actually wasn’t. It turns out, the surviving drive is the one with the OS, but the drive that failed had the boot record on it which is why I was unable to boot. I was able to determine this by downloading the Windows 10 USB installer, booting up with that and inspecting the surviving drive. I managed to restore the boot information and boot successfully into Windows 10. This is a relief. All that was on the other drive was game installs, most of which I can reinstall by downloading them from Steam or similar cloud libraries.

That’s kind of disappointing. source

The researchers also found that if User A, whom we’ll call Anna, shares her contacts with Facebook, including a previously unknown phone number for User B, whom we’ll call Ben, advertisers will be able to target Ben with an ad using that phone number, which I call “shadow contact information,” about a month later. Ben can’t access his shadow contact information, because that would violate Anna’s privacy, according to Facebook, so he can’t see it or delete it, and he can’t keep advertisers from using it either.

Whatever about Destiny 2’s systems and storytelling, but they really have the gunplay down. Currently catching up through the first two expansions so I can play some Forsaken Tweet deleted 😢
