  Can also ask your mom Mine was “Magic” by Olivia Newton John. Sounds like it set the mood just fine.

  I moved to Linux Mint 2+ years ago. Zero regrets. 10/10, would recommend. Win 11 getting bloated is what finally drove me there. FWIW, Claude is amazing support for Mint and Linux in general. It’s not just you, though. There’s a post on Hacker News right now about the 170k non-profit orgs just had their data deleted my MS recently. There’s a whole comment thread about how MS is no longer a serious company. Silicon valley professionals have lost faith in the company. It’s not just you (and me).

  Another version: A firing squad executes people. Out of 5 shooters, if only one has a real bullet and 4 have blanks, the execution still happens. The firing squad kills people, but it only takes 1 member to define the group.

  Hands down, the Northern Lights are just crazy magic. I saw a particularly active night in Lapland, even the Finns said it was a good night. Full cinema-style wavy green bands in the sky. Undulating like snakes. *Fast*. So fucking fast. In terms of natural phenomena that should be mistaken for gods, this is the peak. 27/10, would see again all the time.

  Well, I appreciate the attempt to engage in conversation by throwing someone else’s biased work at me, but there’s a number of problems with this article. Not the sources, though. I will say that these opinion polls are reliable as *opinion* polls. There’s just a lot more happening. This article sounds great to anyone that’s never talked to a single person that lived under a socialist government listed here about the actual day-to-day of life, or the countries that they neglected to mention....

  I also use a custom domain. Basically, as long as you accept that the domain might be linked to your IRL name, it's more of a privacy issue in that regard. The custom domain means you don't ever have to stick with one company forever, also. My email address is portable to any hosting service. Spammers and scammers work in databases of hundreds of thousands of records they buy. Anything that doesn't immediately return a hit is chaff to be deleted. There's no incentive to root thr...

  I used to live like a savage with everything tied to one email, and had a few regular spam shields. Damned fool small smooth brain idiot way of living! I don't know why I didn't do a custom domain 10 years ago. The level of security buffering it offers is worth every penny alone. Someone gets aggressively spammy? Fine, I'll delete the fucking email address, enjoy the bounceback, dicks. Every breach reinforces the idea that this is a good call, giving data leaks worthless garbage. It...

  WTF did I just watch? The Orangutan figured out how to use one of those weird squeeze-scoot things? This has to be fake.

  Sooooo.... Like one of those Rwandan National Unity and Reconciliation things? Awkward doesn't even start until about 15-20 years after you murdered a bunch of people.

  This is utter BS. A foreign national on US soil doesn't get the same protections as a US citizen would overseas. What they're saying is "fuck 'em all, let God sort 'em out!" for warrantless data searches and collection. And then waiting for the lawsuit 20 years from now about clear violation of the law to bother thinking about this.

  Ok, so Albanian and Greek are the outliers here. Albanian is its own language group. Though, to be fair to Greek, the word is for toe and finger is δάχτυλο. Dachtylo. Which is kind of like “digit.” Even in Koine Greek. Also, arm and hand are the same word, and leg and foot are the same word. My Greek isn’t good enough to say for sure, but a pre-Google language manuals call both finger and toe dachtylo. Then specify hand or foot. Or…specify arm or leg? Arm digit? Leg digit? Greece should b...

  Oofda. Like, this is a quality shit post, but wow. Are we all so jaded about pedos running the country that we’re dong baby corn memes? Sorry, maybe I’m not 4Chan enough to laugh since there are real victims in all this.
