Maybe it’s little babies who haven’t learned to read or something watching Redo of Healer dubbed?

And to leave behind a legacy which may be fragile, but is nonetheless proof you existed, and a ripple throughout the rest of human history, and you can choose to make that ripple positive.

I was going to say “I don’t use em-dashes in my books for when they sole all those books” but then I went into my first book and found 22 em-dashes so… oops. I thought the word processor changed – into an en-dash and not an em-dash.

I think you’d probably be ok with using em-dashes (I typically use en-dashes myself but I’m lazy), but don’t use cliche phrases like “It’s not [x] – it’s [reframed x]”

“This is not just a leak – it’s a blueprint for mass exploitation,” the researchers said.

Are the researchers chatgpt? Because that looks almost word for word how chatgpt would write something like that, right down to the em-dash.

I had to do it for my atom d2550s because of the odd hybrid x86/x86-64 systems they are. I had to install what ended up being linux mint debian edition 5 because that was the best way to get an OS on the odd bootloader system for various reasons, then upgraded to 6 to get to the latest debian, then I installed proxmox and removed all the debian stuff.

What do I do with something as weak as a pair of D2550s? Don’t you worry about that. I’ve found uses for both. :P

It’s an unusual use case, but it’s one reason you might need to install debian before proxmox.

China still burns more coal every year than every single other country on earth put together.

This matters a lot, because it doesn’t matter that you’re “using electricity” if it’s coming from a big ol’ coal pollution factory.

In some ways, it’s preferable to directly use the coal in some applications – changing from chemical energy to thermal to movement to electricity back to thermal energy can be less efficient than just changing the chemical energy to thermal energy and using that directly.

I’m on year 3 of making a habit of going outside every day I can during the summer.

I have to admit, it’s something I’d like to see done a bit better (not that I’d be the one posting about it typically)

“Crocoslut version 12 released!”

Uh… great?

Though sometimes you go to the website and it’s not much better.

Yes.

I use nextcloud and I love it.

You want to follow the 3-2-1 strategy: 3 copies of your data on at least 2 different forms of media, and 1 backup being off-line.

(just in case people misunderstand and think I’m making a more pointed attack than I really am, I’m just making a reference to the 1880 essay “The Awful German Language” by Mark Twain)

“does not have to be clearly masculine or feminine, as was the case until 2008, but may also be neutral.”

If my child is a boy, I will name him fish. If a girl, Fishwife. If non-binary or it doesn’t like the other names, scaly skin.

The government of Canada.

“People may start to hunt, fish, and forage on public lands and waterways without reference to regulations.”

It’s cool guys! We had two consecutive quarters of economic decline and found out that’s not a recession because (checks paper) because I said so.

So everything is fine forever and it’s actually good if the economy shrinks!

“I’m invested now so fuck it” hrm… Phrasing?

Aw, nevermind.

Oh! They just didn’t call orange man bad!

If only someone had the guts to say orange man bad, but nobody was able to do it!

Shamefur dispuray!

Speedrunning destroying your platform.

Something that I have been warning about for years now is that all of these establishment voices that claim to support a thing are just going to use that thing up and then discard it like a used tissue.

The sooner people realize that, the better off everyone will be. Global megacorps are not your friend.

To be fair, we Canadians have an awful lot to fix that isn’t going to get fixed.

Did you read about the recent uncovering of the government report that said that poor people were going to be foraging in the woods for food in the next decade or two? Sure I’m glad that we keep on focusing on the keeping rich people in Europe happy.
