It’s from the theme song to the original Americas Funniest Home Videos. The one hosted by Bob Saget. Which I think aired in a primetime slot on ABC.

America. America. This is you.

Look, when Britain taxed our tea, we got frisky…Imagine what’ll happen when they try to tax our whiskey!

To be fair, Americans had no idea just how many of us were anti-science/ pro-bullshit until nearly the end of 2016.

I keep wanting to learn Dvorak but I’m just already so fast and accurate with QWERTY.

Obviously they aren’t recent, it’s an old graveyard.

You know why nobody living in a town gets buried in its cemetery? Because they are living.

SPAM is underappreciated.

I remember a long time ago as a fat kid on keto, eating spam right out of the can with a spoon. This is not the recommended way to serve.

But, grilled, either on a sandwich or as part of a breakfast plate? Chef’s kiss.

Not only that, but managing wifi channel congestion in a dorm is a pita.

It’s tough enough when you fully control the airspace, to have nice clean coverage and overlapping cells.

But then add dozens or hundreds of individually managed APs in a tiny space…with DFS and/or 160MHz channel widths?

Ops best bet is to get their own 5g home internet and plug in.

You’ll be hard pressed to get a router to talk to a captive portal sign in…but if OP wants to get creative, this can easily be fixed with a dumb switch and a Linux PC with two NICs. You could use windows for this, but why would you?

This is common in America. We do it so that universities don’t have to compete with private landlords.

I’m pretty sure it’s either Mandela Effect or a massive gaslighting conspiracy. Though I guess that’s true for everything that’s collectively misremembered.

Don’t the volume buttons already take a picture?

No more public urinals. AFABs might use them, and who wants to look over into the urinal next to them and see a chick in khakis with a she-wee? That’s just weird.

(Giant /s if not obvious).

Assuming Dudebro McChismo didn’t get their first. He won’t give up his seat for a little old lady…that shit is for betas.

“leftists” just want their population to be fairly represented. The system that we have now gives significantly more power to people who live in the right places.

These places are all away from densely populated areas (which are, coincidentally, the areas that are contributing the most to our GDP, also where the highest wages are and thus where the biggest chunk of taxes are collected)

What we are well on our way to, is a tyranny of the minority, and you sound like you’re applauding it. As if that is somehow better for everyone than majority rule, or even the stalemate we have now.

Yeah, we want a functional democracy where not everyone, but at least the majority, thinks the same way…and also runs under the direction of a majority. You know, like a democracy should.

What we have now is a dysfunctional democracy…one which runs counter to what the majority are thinking.

I’d been meaning to try out atomic distros. I’m not an expert on Linux by any means but I’ve been using it on-and-off for about 25 years, and exclusively (at home, at least) for about 7. So I’m a bit more than a noob.

I do worry if I’d feel restricted inside of an atomic distro. Might throw kininite on a laptop I’ve been meaning to give to my kid, tho.

Why are they still so hung up on 8.3 long after Win95?

I get not wanting to have spaces in a filename. Those suck.

Is there something low-level that still doesn’t like long filenames?

Y’all also use PINs. Americans freak out if they have to enter a PIN.

Here it’s only used for debit transactions (that is, taken directly out of a checking account). PIN for credit transactions is incredibly rare here.

This is probably because the merchants are responsible for fraudulent credit purchases. Credit companies kinda have them over a barrel in that regard…they have no incentive to enforce PINs, and users just want convenience.

Meanwhile Sally the Walmart clerk gets written up because some knucklehead in her lane swiped a cloned card. She has no power here either…card readers rarely ask for signature anymore (not like they are trained signature analysts, a pseudoscience in itself) and I can’t remember the last time I was asked for ID for a credit purchase (aside from booze, smokes, or Sudafed, but that’s a different reason)

Being incel isn’t just about not getting laid…the important part is blaming everyone else for it. The term then gets co-opted as the people who blame everyone else for not getting laid.

If everything were a file…I’d be soooo happy.

Huh. So they were sending their best.
