Don’t cars have carborators? Are carborators edible?

I don’t know anything about cars except they go vroom. I know even less about chemistry.

I’m 100% torrents if I need it. Fmovies or other sites seem to have the majority of what I want to watch.

Is there a guide on how to use usenet? What does it offer that torrents does not? Is it nitch stuff?

I am pretty okay with regex. Enough that I can do what I want.

sed/awk I’ve used on occasion, usually sed to change something in a pipeline.

I still feel like I’m casting a demon.

I swear whenever I see sed/awk commands, it looks like I’m about to summon the demon beast.

This right here. I know lemmy is all “LINUX IS FOR EVERYONE!” But it isn’t.

I know this would go against Google’s self interest but they are best poised to make Linux mainstream. Chrome OS can play android games natively. But it’s all close source.

It wouldn’t take much to make the ecosystem for general Linux. I don’t know if the other android-based OSes are working on this but anything we can do to push gaming into Linux would help it to become a better everyday OS

That’s cheating. Anything will taste great with butter and garlic.

I can’t remember which comedian said this but he absolutely loves talking to flat earthers. Whenever they bring up the moon being too small, etc., he bursts out laughing and says, “You believe in the moon?!”

The image had me at 100 frosted. I didn’t care after that.

Crossover cable.

I still have one around just in case but wifi makes it unnecessarily these days.

It must have gotten better than the last time I tried to use Ventoy. Maybe 5 years ago? It kept complaining that the USB drive I was using was bad when it worked completely fine with other tools.

If he tells you, he’d be advertising and that’s against his religion.

It goes further than that.

Sargent says something along the lines of, “We can’t tell people about this result. They’ll kill us.”

The entire film sets up the premise that NASA is hiding research about a flat earth. They are guarding the ice wall so people don’t see it.

Then they hide research showing the earth is round.

These people don’t care about science. They care about power.

It’s no accident that conspiracy theorists and conservatives have a considerable overlap.

Meat drippings.

I know that this isn’t the point but I absolutely can’t stand the word “juice” to describe meat drippings.

Juice is from a fruit! When I see juice to describe meat drippings, all I can think of is someone squeezing a big steak and squeezing all the “juice” out.

Anyway, commit message is on point. Add a small pinch of flour to thicken the “juice” and you’ll have gravy.

A time machine, at its very very core, is a literary device. You wouldn’t bring up this nuance unless it was important to the plot of the story.

It’s like warp drives. The point of warp or any FTL travel is to skip the boring parts. You only learn about warp drives when something goes wrong.

Yup. It booted fine but after a few reboots, bpool somehow got corrupted and refused to boot. It happened repeatedly after several reinstalls.

I love ZFS but support for it on Ubuntu seems haphazard. It works fine for non-root drives.

I’ve tried running it as my root partition and just gave up after it fucked up my bpool dataset too many times.

I actually really liked the book over the movie. I felt like the book did a much better job of describing the dystopian world and how the MC (can’t remember his name and too lazy to look it up) and the world at large more or less dealt with it.

Iirc the movie doesn’t even go into the history of the digital world and why the MC was obsessed with it. I get that movies and books are different but it seemed like the movie was “inspired” by the book and not based on it.

I demand:

• Studios have exclusive rights to their respective works for 2 years, after which time they are required to license it to their competitors for “at cost” fees, similar to pole easements for cable/electric companies.
• Public Domain is reverted to 25 years after publishing
• Fan Fiction is added as a “free use” exception

If we had better politicians, these threats from the MPAA would amount to just whining.
