They say “never shit a shitter”, but apparently it should be “always shit a shitter”.

I bet they’d be doing a lot better if the US hadn’t stolen $7B USD from their central bank, or you know, bombed the country into oblivion for two decades, or armed and trained the Mujahideen (including Osama) against the Soviets when they wanted to assist Afghanistan’s socialist development. No, blame it all on the Taliban, an organization that profoundly reflects US involvement. That way Western capitalist press can manufacture consent for more US involvement. I’m sure Afghani people are hoping we’ll “help” more. There is no price too great, if we can raise revenue for US arms manufacturers.
Sometimes, somewhat.
You wanna go for start-ups then. Most bigger and medium-sized companies have centrally-managed security where they wanna push updates and such to all computers or there’s some corporate spyware everyone’s gotta run or they’ve got everyone on M$ Office etc etc. Odds are a place that lets you use a linux laptop is going to be reluctant to buy you one and invite you to use your own. Macbooks aren’t so bad, if they let you have sudo, lots of places use those.
I use dawn foaming dish soap dispensers, with non-dawn soap. Suds on demand.
I feel even better replacing a new or old sponge with a brush that will never get that awful sponge smell
I’m typing on a mac keyboard on Debian. USB one with the numpad. It’s fantastic if you’re into that.
The last time I tried to pair the magic mouse 2 though, no joy. I’d be wary of the bluetooth keyboard.
2023 was absolutely the year I dove back into music piracy. I started with downloading youtube playlists but the real game changer was soundiiz, which allowed me to import text, m3u, csv, spotify, xspf playlists into qobuz and deezer so i can download whole playlists of FLAC with qobuz-dl and deemix-gui. My collection went from 20,000 to 100,000, downloading playlists from qobuz and deezer, xspf playlists from my remaining lossy music. I used streamripper on a few web radio stations just to get a list of songs to pull down this way. I only bought music for years and years, but that got me a narrow type of collection.
Sure, here’s one that’s ongoing https://www.swazilandnews.co.za/fundza.php?nguyiphi=2264 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sB5Ybg5JzUo
Anyway, the Tienanmen Square protests happened before the white terror ended.
Maybe if I’ve got a racing sailboat and have so much money I can’t abide the weight of steel standing rigging.
Doesn’t abrade cable like zip ties, can reuse unlike most zip ties. Especially with fatter coils like outdoor extension cord or air compressor hose, it makes sense to have a length of paracord on the end to keep it neat and hang it. Plus you can use the paracord sleeve as a jacket for smaller cables. The real star of cable management are hook and loop wraps tbh.
The new term is “digital audio player”. http://www.reddit.com/r/digitalaudioplayer is a good community for that. mp3s are out, if you want a really small file size, opus has better quality. If quality is more important than file size, rip to FLAC. I know at least for android, there are music player apps like musicolet and poweramp that will allow you to play songs from your phone if you have the storage space. The old ones work with modern computers. You can buy reconditioned ipods on ebay, but the new ones are better IMO. For ripping music a good community is http://www.reddit.com/r/musichoarder
I just tried it. I can’t bulk import external playlists, so I’m not using it. I keep my playlists in with the music directories so I have to scroll past 3,000 artists to get to any of them in musicolet.
