I was never a fan of Linus tech tips. He always seemed like a weird guy. I did watch that video where he totally fucked his Linux installation by being really dumb. The package manager warned him that he was about to destroy his system and made him type something like “Yes, I know what I’m doing”. He then reacted like, “why would Linux do this to me!? It’s so hard!”
Either a paid shill or an absolute moron.
Having kids is stupid. The world doesn’t need more people. Stop it.
Its definitely a cannon.
Bill and Ted were a parody of 90s SoCal culture. Nobody was that ridiculous unironically.
My guess is that it’s about how many of us are complicit in our horrific criminal justice system. Casual things, like people laughing at the suggestion of prison rape being retribution rather than recoiling in horror at the suggestion.
There was a homeless guy sleeping in the parking area of my apartments and everyone I mentioned it to suggested that I call the cops. I went and asked the guy if he was alright. We said a total of like 10 words but he was just some 30ish year old dude looking for a little temporary shelter. Do you really need to call the cops to fuck his shit up even more?
I’m not trying to make light of the exceptional challenges you face and the opportunities and luck I had but I didn’t have it particularly easy.
In my childhood, I’d generally get new shoes when the old ones had holes in the bottom. After high school, I worked painting restaurants and refinishing furniture while I went to community college, then got a pell grant and a student loan to go to state university. I took the bus or rode a $500 street legal dirt bike with a cracked frame to work after I graduated. I was living in a small 3 bedroom house with 4 other roommates at the time (one of whom lived in the garage). I needed a few more university courses to get into a professional training program for my career. It took me a couple more years to complete those pre-reqs and each of those classes cost me about $1000, which was nearly all the money I could save up each year. Eventually, I got through the training program, obtained a professional license and was able to get a job which would, after about another 10 years of work and promotions, eventually become rather high paying.
As you all have guessed, I’m over 40.
I agree with you if you suggest that the system is rigged in favor of the rich and connected or that everything is fucked for people just entering the job market. But also, it’s on you to figure it out.
Life pro tip: fight lifestyle inflation/creep. Use all the shampoo. Be conscious of waste. Don’t take it to “frugal jerk” levels but just keep in mind that you have to earn every dollar you spend.
At some point, you’ll probably be making more money. People tend to choose to take this opportunity to also spend more money. Keep this to a minimum. Do you want to retire in your 40s or in your 80s?
Thanks. I hate it.
I think part of the answer is transient bottlenecks and a backward propagation of the traffic waves they create. They’re caused when a large number of cars merge onto the freeway at an onramp, slowing down the right two lanes; when some jerk cuts someone off, causing a momentary slowdown; when there’s something interesting on the side of the road that people decelerate slightly to look at. Of course, actual bottlenecks obviously cause a backup as well.
It’s weird that people care about this. Let other people enjoy their food prepared whatever way they like it.
I presume that many people who cook their stakes well done came out of Europe during the mad cow disease concerns or grew up in other places where there were health concerns around undercooked meat.
Big Google and big government want your data. I hope Linux phones get good enough for daily use soon.
I find this very satisfying
This weekend, I gave my girlfriend’s dad a nice computer with Linux mint installed. I put a shortcut to windows 11 setup to run in virtualbox, in case there were things that he felt he needed windows for (to spare him the frustration of needing to tinker too much if he didn’t want to).
Down with Microsoft spyware.
The class 1,2,3 system is only confusing if you’re a moron. Santa Barbara has the right idea, identifying a problem with “high powered ebikes” which are sold with >750 watt motors, which makes them too high powered to legally be ebikes. These are in moped or electric motorcycle territory.
If it wasn’t clear before, it is now. We have Republicans and Democrats on the right and Democratic Socialists on the left.
Atticus seemed to be saying that corporations already know everything about you because of your phone and that people are silly to try to protect their privacy, implying that these people are boring and really have nothing worth keeping private.
I was trying to illustrate that people should and actually do value their privacy, and that they should continue to take measures to protect it.
You come in with - bruh, have you ever heard of a phone book?
The info you shared was not interesting and only served to convey your lack of critical thinking ability.
I assume that the downvotes are from you and I notice that you haven’t shared the information. I think that is a good and appropriate response. Nothing good can come you sharing this information here. Privacy is appropriate and valuable even for people who are doing nothing wrong and who aren’t even particularly interesting.
You’ve missed the point. The phone numbers are not the valuable information. What’s valuable is the list of each person’s social contacts.
Its never wise to put that many k’s that close together.
Doing a little napkin math here, that’s about a half an ounce of heroin mixed into 385 gallons of water.
That seems more like the 55 gallon drums had previously been filled with heroin, but were drained and refilled with water, and just a little residue was leftover.
