You mean every laptop or desktop machine pre-System76?

Erm AKSHUALLY, I was making a reference to the fact that different operating systems run on hardware.

No. Linux is an operating system. So is Windows. Hardware is hardware. They are not people.

Electric toothbrush is amazeballs.

That’s frustrating, sorry to hear that.

Important question: are you bleeding from the gums when you floss?

Healthy gums can handle normal flossing without bleeding. I floss once a day, before bed. Normal flossing does not involve super hard scrubbing, just enough force to scrape off stuff stuck between the teeth and dislodge stuck particles. You might also want to add some antiseptic mouthwash to your routine after flossing until your gums stop bleeding.

I fucking hate Aptos. It makes my work emails (Outlook) look “quirky” and that is NOT what is needed.

You could thin it out with water too. Soylent comes as a premixed beverage or as a powder if you want it cheaper.

I have ended up in a “view all and block” mode rather than a “subscribe to a curated list” mode because of the smaller community. That means I need to block a lot more communities I am not interested in and users that are just… Outside my window of civility or politics that I can handle. Raging tankies, for example.

Who pissed on your Wheaties this morning? Got a little mold on your favorite pants?

A little off topic, but your laundry should never be in a condition to allow mold growth. Stuff should be allowed to dry out if it got wet (if you don’t intend to wash it soon) and washed laundry should be promptly dried. If you are doing that and it still happened, you might have a mold problem in your home. The shirt might not be saveable, but this might be the lesson to avoid more expensive mistakes in the future.

Yes

Methinks some folks need to go out and touch grass for a while.

Out of curiosity, can you specify the topics or give specific examples of this shitty behavior you speak of? Without examples it is impossible to determine if you are discussing behavior that is straight-up pathological (e.g. name-calling) or people having a different opinion.

Lol okay. I am apparently a bad actor for simply adding information to the discussion that always rapidly devolves into simple “eat the rich” rhetoric. Sure, go on with your sanctimonious lecturing, I’m here all day.

Jfc, you are angry.

I point it out because most people here don’t seem to understand how it works when announcements like this are made.

Important to point out that their wealth is largely unrealized gains, that is, only exists in theory. If the stock market / bond market / whatever market crashed, this wealth would largely vaporize. Stock prices are essentially a mass agreed-upon hallucination, as they can be extremely divorced from real assets like industrial machines. It does mean that by controlling these stock etc assets, other people have a harder time getting into this slice of pie and they can do dumb shit like buying Twitter and summarily running it into the ground.

Yeah, that’s what I was thinking. This could have the makings of constructive dismissal. Relocate to a place with vastly different legal protections or be fired? Hmm. Since it also would possibly disproportionately affect female employees, I wonder if some discrimination could also come in to play?

Not a lawyer, just spitballing ideas.

The risk of being a landlord is exactly why I don’t do it, and invest elsewhere.
