The admins finally decided to cash in their .sleep() bonus in the name of the greater good.

About to be 6.0000001% when my Kubuntu download finishes. I’m finally taking the dive boys, linux on main here we go.

Firefox, Labybird, or anything not Chrome flavored.

Our retirements are wagered at this table.

Could be the first unfounded customer complaint. I keep a printout of particularly “special” user tickets in my office. Some of the stuff end users and customers expect, or say, is absolutely insane and worthy of display.

Good call, didn’t even realize what I’d typed.

Google “Gerrymandering”. It’ll all come together.

500 million to convert the Saudi jet to Af1 all while we’ve got 2 planes already in the works. Approved. No arguments. Already out of the media cycle…

Neat!

I just wish 2024 went different. It’s weird being converted into what is essentially a Russia level fascist state in less than a year. Dump constantly speaks about being the president that’s done more than any in the last 100 years, and I don’t see why people aren’t believing him. We’re not getting out of this hole in our lifetime. It’s over. The highest office has legitimized double think, propaganda, lying, criminal rape, etc. We’re cooked as far as bringing respect or honor to government goes.

The year of the linux phone is almost upon us…

You mean an acquisition followed by a market adjusted price alignment?

Dad, dad, check out my hairless homunculus!

Honestly, I got banned from that instance after down voting several posts I disagreed with, which is what down vote is there for, and dude told me to fuck off in the notice like I was running a script or something. I don’t personally care, but I also have zero sympathy for someone on the internet being that sensitive or heavy handed. Probably didn’t deserve whatever toxic nonsense they’d been exposed to, but still, based on my interactions with em, good riddance.

At Microsoft/King/Activision? That sort of seems like going to the desert for a drink.

What did they think was going to happen?..

Tape drives will be expensive and likely beyond overkill for this. I’d recommend you grab a blue ray DVD writer and use that instead. The discs are generally shelf stable for 25 years and hold about 50-128GB depending on the disc. Duplicates are cheap, storage is relatively easy, and it doesn’t require constant upkeep/power like a hard drive would. Downsides? They just stopped making the discs, so they’ll grow in cost over time. That’s about it that I can think of.

The cruelty is the point.

Every government should have a public competitive corporation in every aspect of infrastructure. Cloud, water, etc. If they’re going to free market it, they need to stoke competition.

Wiring your wallet to an api call does do wonders for ruining any potential peace of mind you might seek.
