There aren’t enough cats or other awww.

Respirator fit testing. This means the entire work force in hospitals taking care of us during COVID. They stay safe by virtue of vaccines and respirators that fit securely such that they do not let the virus in. Doctors, nurses, techs, respiratory therapists, xray/imaging, and the people at the desk that take your information and check you in.

In addition, this is every trade profession that works with concrete dust, metal dust, sawdust, noxious fumes (exterminators, boat painters/sealers, etc), people who deal with drywall and insulation, and asbestos remediation.

Fuck all those people. Amiright?

Hey, when the internet first showed up, there was a vibe, rooted in GenX, to exist in a free and open source space because it’s the common sense thing to do.

As for the rest, yeah, it’s quiet here. Like the e-version of sitting on my porch and having random people step out or drive up for a bit of conversation before fucking off to elsewhere.

Is there another venue? Nebula doesn’t seem keen on DIY and anything not free is going to have an incredibly reduced audience. The people who need the info most are the least likely to be able to afford another sub.

More than system76 and Lenovo think pads without graphics cards.

Units have been dissolved and nurses have been laid off. New grad programs/hires put on hold. Nurses may be less in the line of fire, but they’re not immune.

The entirety of the movement taking place is one of decommissioning consumers. Seriously. You need to think of it in capitalist terms. The wellbeing of a large consumer/worker base has ceased to be the object of operations.

Use this context when looking at data centers, nvidias move to remove computing power from consumers/working class, and it all makes a bit more sense.

We ARE expendable. Consumers are expendable. Action in governance now reflects that.

It will take some serious, I hate to say it, YouTube campaigning and such to make Linux a more mainstream thought in the public’s brain.

I used to say health care was solid but there have been layoffs across the country all year. Every time the touch Medicare or Medicaid hospitals will lose income and cost cut. In addition, less insurance means less patients means less income and more layoffs.

You have died of dysentery takes on new meaning.

Unless it’s Larian, it’s backlog or maybe an expansion. I haven’t even purchased the new Civ, and I’ve been playing that one since III.

This makes me think of Norton in fight club discussing recalls.

Weird. I just chose that in Stellaris too. Xenophile ethics attraction +25%. It literally is a great strength too, being able to inhabit all habitable planets, faster, saving terraforming resources for the barrens.

And I’ll still loose to AI who stay at least 10k points ahead til the end. And why did I buy that voidworms expansion this winter sale? How has that been helpful?

What were we talking about?

(MAGA is a bag of dicks, we can’t change them any more than you can change the nature of your abusive, alcoholic spouse. The solutions there are the same as well: kick them out, lock them up, or run away.)

I don’t follow much celebrity news, but even if he was “singing for my supper” it’s still good. I knew about his early raging alcoholism, divorce, and serial infidelities, because I went digging for it, but not any of this.

He’s still vibing as Chris Tucker. It’s fantastic Chris Tucker, but it’s still Chris Tucker.

With commissioner Gordon I was initially squinting at him asking if it was Oldman. In old horses I almost want to cover my nose, the man is acting a smell so well.

My old vet used cheese cubes to distract cats.

I should watch this again. It’s been a bit.

Gary Oldman. Man, that guy has range.

I’ve been no added sugar for 2 months. One day of eating and I now feel like I’ve just participated in some kind of contest where the objective was to acquire diabetes.

One of the better episodes imo.

Would Sisko have ever been trapped in the delta quadrant?

GenX is mostly forgotten until tech support is needed, either direction, yes.

Millennials are fine, lol, and overlap with genx, this relates to the teens and early 20s age group.

Isn’t the issue here the newest generation? I keep reading they’re way less tech savvy than the rest of us. Blended in with the propensity for young people to have an iPhone or Android and no PC, well, this junk will likely slide right by.
