We got a bigger car than I would like because my stepdaughter decided that she wanted to be a hockey goalie. 🙈

I lived in Amsterdam for 10 years and only got a car when I married someone who lived in the suburbs. Well, actually I still don’t own a car but I can borrow one as needed!

Zelensky was the proximate cause of Trump’s first impeachment, right? The perfect phone call?

I need you to do is a favor, though.

I think that Trump does have a grudge against Zelensky.

I mean, the US escorted ships there during the Iran/Iraq war in the 1980s…

One alert daily reporting that there are no alerts is probably good for a home lab…

AMA only attempts to solve half of the problem with medical care in the US. Before it access to medical care was gated through insurance and many people (especially children, who are worthless in the capitalist system) were uninsured and therefore had no access to medical care.

Providing access as Obamacare does kind of works, but only by making a Faustian bargain with insurance companies: they are given carte blanche to extract wealth from the population bad and only have to provide the barest fig leaf of medical care.

So…the ACA is bad, but better than what came before.

Maybe I shouldn’t have installed Mint on my dad’s old laptop that won’t run Windows 11. 🤔

I moved from Arch to NixOS and am worried about my complete lack of gender dysphoria. I must have it set up wrong…

I found Delicious in Dungeon to be charming.

A lot of TV have a USB port and can play directly from that.

It can be done:

The universe includes everything. As such it would include the higher being.

Nature was perfectly fine with the earth having only single celled life for billions of years. Nature will stumble along with or without humans until the planet gets too hot for liquid water.

Sending humans to Mars is evil.

It is impossible to have people anywhere without gazillions of microbes. Once humans land on Mars we’ve at the very least corrupted any evidence of life, and possibly destroyed an independent genesis of life.

Since all life on earth comes from a single progenitor, this is both an incalculable loss of potential knowledge, and also a greater extinction than all earth extinctions combined.

I propose a moratorium for say 200 years or so, or at least until we’ve explored more than a few square kilometers in detail.

The only issue I ever had was Arch ARM changing the naming convention for network devices and making me have to plug the first Raspberry Pi that I upgraded into a monitor to debug what was going on.

This was annoying for sure, but less annoying than using a 6 year old Python version like the Red Hat Enterprise Linux at work…

The US already invaded Cuba, so…

My wife is Dutch and thinks that all American high schools look like an ivy league university and have students that look like they’re 20 walking around having sexy dramatic adventures. 🙈

Have they said “thank you” once?

Fun fact: Bill Clinton, George Bush Jr., and Trump were all born in the same year.

The article, by Anonymous, does not mention posting, does it? I’m not sure what you’re talking about.
