New Zealand political poster. You could put this in Australia as well. Same sense of humour!

it's really funny to see where python's abstractions start to break down because this is totally normal for a c programmer but if you showed it to a first year compsci student they might cry

I've been asking myself this question for a while. Starting to tackle it... this new paper is a first step.

re: USPOL, LA-Z-Boy
btw, the La-Z-Boy factory is in Kentucky. Which is why I thought there might be a connection.

Valve’s bespoke Steam Deck OS will be officially available on Asus’ ROG Ally

When exactly that support will come is still anybody's guess, though.
