Those are incredibly common. They're more rare the less they're cooked, you might say.

Inside a car, Silly. He wrote "literally", and he's not an idiot, so it's got to be a car or truck or abattoir he's being driven inside.

willing to stand the fuck up (looking at you, Nader, Bernie, AoC, Walz, Booker)

What does "stand[ing] up" look like? Nader talks and it's angels trumpets but AoC and Bernie talk hard all day and it's somehow not as good?

And please don't shit on the only non-felon election choice when she was only one vote and the only non-felon. This was an IQ test and America lost spectacularly. At this point, blaming coach and Harris is a bit of a tell.

I gotta travel with my twin more often. I can 50-50 unlock his stuff. Let's fuck this up.

Fewer and fewer by the month

I was terrible at swing! I can't lead in dancing. I can run a bunch of troopies to set up some comms in the bush and no one will ever hear me as us kids were raised "dad works night shifts so be quiet" kind of quiet. But if a game plan while dancing is a learned skill, I never hit proficiency at it and I think it's just not for me.

Well done, you. You learned a skill I can only envy, and in under a year!

That's why I'd love to see more developers take another look at Linux. Such that they may develop better proficiency in the basic katas of the internet. Such that they aren't scared to connect a computer to the internet without the cover of a cloud.

I worked at a company building Unix. Later, it built a few releases of a Linux distro too. The people there were proficient documenters and app dev; build, release and support (escalation) devs; and some kernel devs so blindingly smart it made us normies' tired just trying to keep up mentally.

Everyone used windows.

"Whot?!?" Yes, windows. Building Unix - the Unix - and a Linux distro, these super-capable black belts of the OS (borrowing your term) should be in Korn all day long.

Windows. WinAMP. VanDyke. Mozilla.

These people have the skill for it, but their preference was for windows. Because it was bad, but consistently so and presented a unified force to cope around.

I've worked on Linux my entire career, having used Linux since 94. But aside from a short window in 96, I've also done it with windows.

Windows. Spotify. Putty. SeaMonkey.

I say still use fedora; just don't pay for it! \s

Don't nail tortoises down. They reeeeally hate that.

Can we start accepting trans people as refugees, yet? It's Super dangerous for some people to just be alive in America right now, and that smells like a refugee situation to me.

Air Canada has apologized to customers who were allegedly escorted off a plane for refusing to sit in a chair covered with vomit for the duration of their over four-hour flight.

The airline issued a statement after a viral Facebook post claimed two as-yet unidentified female flyers were told there was nothing to be done about the visible vomit on their soiled seats.

Oh! AirCanada!

We've been using Yum (and now its "differenter name is betterer" dnf) for what, 20 years?

You think we'll ever get someone with a clue to fix this? Will RedHat going all IBM about source code help?

 

Okay, so what's with Gitlab and ServiceNow getting so fat on whitespace that they no longer fit in half a 1920x1200 screen properly?

What's the standard width that actual professional webdevs are building toward? Is there a standard, or like app dependendencies are they back to pre-y2k "moar moar nom nom" methodologies?

 

Look. It happens a few times a week, where reps in 3 time-zones will be fucked by an interruption to azure services like o341 or sharepoint (we don't do VMs in azure; not secure enough).

I'm used to shadenfreuding Reddit over that, or at least finding it's not just our company firewall and VPN taking the Proverbial.

Is there a sub I can join to get the topical junk like that? I'm too indolent - like a fox! - to go to twitter (or ideally mastodon) for a more suitable location; but will I find it there if I do? Can it be here too?

 

I didn't find this yet, but please downvote to hell itself and drop a link to the proper prior post in comments if you find it.

In here, eventually, are some comments from the Fedora project leader about how RHEL trying to kill open access to source and packaging source code is potentially going to affect Fedora, RedHat's ginger adopted stepchild which it usually overlooks.

I must say there's a LOT to wait through and one of them has a mic with a bad level at times, and I didn't sit all the way through. Tell me if I've been scammed, but I thought this may have value and I'm hoping to hear confirmation of that too.

Enjoy? Or flame me. Happy Friday.
