That’s a terrible sword to live by. How do you expect to get blood, then? If you’re unconscious you can’t take it by force.

ZFS. It’s come so far, and it has so far to go. but it’s a good concept for sure.

Bone apple tea!

Breathe, son.

Wasn’t ‘spastic’ a mainstream word too, for a hundred years? (Popularity again somehow implies legitimacy here). And I’m sure we can find a number of really objectionable words from the warmer us states that were incredibly popular for decades and are, yet, offensive.

Likewise, we’re allowed to dislike words like ‘moist’ and lazy prefixes like ‘cis’ while understanding they are still - for the moment - words.

This is a terrible tangent, though, and I’m okay if we stop this worthless digression.

shadow account linked to yours, but only the administrators of your instance know

1. Vote my conscience
2. Bribe my admins to secrecy

Gotcha!

I have a cousin on FB who’s like that, spamming feeds with a lot of stuff promoting a diet that works around her particular allergies and needs and trying to proselytize it to anyone who appears to be listening. The volume was actually really high, and for stuff that isn’t family stuff like I usually use that account to just see.

So, blocked. It’s like her and a rabid anti-gov/vax/tax nutjob blocked, and I dunno whether that’s right.

Is “agreement” a rule? That’s too incongruous to believe – only because loyalty requirements are a far right thing, not the rules for a group typically skewing left.

Also, what’s up with not being able to block a community you’re banned from?

I’d like a setting that automatically hides communities where I can’t participate. If I have to be a member of some club, hit some threshold of something, whatever; I just don’t want to see it, then.

Oh, that’s a great suggestion.

systemctl is trying to do the right thing

I love how this comment suggests every fucking alternative doesn’t or wouldn’t. That’s just bloody arrogance.

Systemd’s entire existence is against best coding practice. Famously, when called out just on the ability to work with others, the systemd team represented trends ably.

Never have I raged at a machine and demanded it tell me what the flying flaming fuck it was actually doing now than when systemd was trying to do what I’m charitably deciding is the right thing.

Why would be doing the right thing now? It honestly only does a thing through luck and race conditions anyway.

Well said. Sadly.

Please tell me someone didn’t buy software with ‘atleast’ spelled like that in there. Please, tell me someone tested the web app and had the brains God gave a douglas fir and knew that wasn’t a word; that it was never a word; that the writer’s spell check should have picked that up; that it’s not been over-ruled by stupid so much that it just takes it.

My barber is like c$40 now. Yeesh. But he’s really good – He can almost make me presentable!

Or, at least, try someone else. What’s the worst that could happen; they ignore you like these guys? right?

I bring a picture of myself with the haircut I want.

This is awesome. I have pics of great haircuts I’ve had, for when I move and need a new barber.

I used to do that on my birthday – just for the face, though.

Because it’s fucking awesome.

We all know it sucks. I have no idea why people use it instead of anything else. My workday is jammed with fucking ansible which, while also being so ghetto that we were easily doing more with less in 2002, uses So.much.fucking.yaml . Just when you think ansible couldn’t get more clunky and useless and slow, it also is configured in yaml.

will shutdown now

‘shut down’ is two words, here.
