We used to take for granted that everybody agreed Nazis and Russians were bad.

Nothing against Russians suffering under Putin’s boot. We have a whole new sympathy for you now.

The trebuchet would become relevant to warfare again as combatants repurpose dying comrades into flaming projectiles.

I noticed that I feel better emotionally and physically when I exercise regularly and feel like shit when I don’t, so it’s kind of a self-preservation thing.

I don’t know how long you’ve been up, but it’s time to step away and go to sleep.

If Letters Had Pants, Would They Wear Them Like This? What About Numbers? What If They Had Small Shovels And They Dug Stuff Up To Put In A Museum

That’s the title. Saved you a click.

For real this time, guys! Linux is going to displace Windows this year. This is the straw that’s gonna cause a mass migration to the command line, trust me bro

Manor lords who want to see attackers coming from a distance. Requires a few dedicated serfs for all the scything, but such is the cost of protecting one’s estates.

This would be a lot more chilling if you weren’t familiar with Elon Musk in real life, as opposed to his delusions of grandeur. The real Elon Musk insists on funnier-shaped rockets and throws tantrums when he gets bullied over sucking at video games. The only dangerous thing about him is being born rich, spoiled, and enabled.

But like…an illusion, right? 😦

Wow, that’s really cool! We’ve been talking about doing something similar with movie clips, making them into a cool flowing playlist.

Are the “Windows evangelists” in the room with us right now? Every Windows admin I know hates Microsoft with a burning rage. Literally the only people I’ve ever seen promote Windows are being paid to do it.

Counterintuitively, that’s one reason I like dealing with Windows: the community knows what it is and doesn’t pretend otherwise, like some other more “zealous” fan bases.

This isn’t even funny, and I have a great sense of humor! 😡 /s

Same. Loaded Ubuntu on an under-specced (for Windows) Dell laptop a couple years ago. No niche OS, no obscure hardware. Out of the box, wifi won’t stay connected for more than a few minutes. Literally no other device on the network (Android, Windows, Roku, etc) has wifi issues. Load Windows back on, it works fine.

Linux is never going to take off until basic functionality works reliably. I’m not asking for the moon, here.

That’s a strange conclusion you got to. 96% of all mammal life on Earth is either humans or animals specifically bred to be our food. One species; 96% market share. Over 5000 other species combined only are 4%. Because we killed them all via predation or taking their habitat.

Can’t tell if this is satire or just more deluded, out of touch wishful thinking. Don’t get me wrong: I would LOVE to see Microsoft dethroned. But Windows would have to become literally unusable before we see a mass migration to Linux.

The bots have really ramped up since Trump took office again. Seeing so many top comments with thousands of upvotes just gaslighting the shit out of frightened Americans, telling them they need to touch grass and everything is fine…it’s so chilling.
