Or something equally involved.

• Sick of feminist and LGBTQ ideology being pushed.
• Can’t really articulate what that is and what it means, or be specific about what they don’t like about it.

Sadly, this tracks, this is this entire block of white men pretty much (and is identical to people who complain about “woke” and “critical race theory”). It’s a result of flooding the zone with shit (google that if you don’t know what it means) and if anything, it usefully tells us who’s vulnerable to that (a tragically large number of people).

We’ve been wishing since the '90s.

80 yr old energy is its own thing and it can be glorious.

A buddy of mine has a story about how his great grandma told him “When you’re old, you can do whatever you want,” and then tripped his shitty, obnoxious cousin who’d been bullying him and picking on him all day and said “Stop being mean to your cousin dear.”

When the cousin’s mom came to see why he was freaking out, he said “Grandmom tripped me!” And his mom said, “Oh honey, you know Grandmom doesn’t see very well…”

The same FBI that keeps telling Congress end to end encryption needs to have legally mandated back doors in it?

I’ve been using Linux primarily for 24 years and exclusively for like… 10-12. When I HAVE to use another OS (for work or something) I miss all my tools and feel powerless. It drives me nuts.

“The DOJ is pushing radical agenda that goes far beyond the legal issues in this case”

I have a feeling that this is going to become the standard defense against ANYTHING the robber barons don’t like in both the courtroom and the media in coming months and years.

I’ve been a linux user for 25 years.

My computers are all named after Autobots and my wallpaper on each computer is a picture of that computer’s namesake from one of the various continuities.

That’s just how I roll out.

Read this as “Sim City: Apocalypse” and was like… “Well, I’d play that!”

You might consider Linux Mint instead of Ubuntu. A lot of what you want is going to work (and be preinstalled) right out of the box. It’s a great system to start with.

I play Stellaris and Minecraft on Linux Mint… Stellaris runs fine through Steam. Minecraft, just download the Linux launcher, it will do everything else for you.

Depending on the distro, Linux may or may not be able to write to NTFS volumes out of the box.

The proper way to share drives between Windows and Linux is to format them to ExFAT.

North Korea, China and… Oh yeah, the effing United States, come January.

My state (Colorado)

• Repealed our 18 year old ban on same sex marriage (yay).
• Failed to pass ranked choice voting (boo). My impression from talking to folks is that many people (especially older people) don’t really know what it is and when they read it on the ballot they feel like it’s weird and complicated.

My city (Boulder) is a liberal bubble and predictably our local issues are all disagreements between upper middle class+, over 40 property owning NIMBYs vs. progressives who care about affordable housing and the homeless. Literally every city council candidate’s platform is EXACTLY the same, except on housing / homelessness issues. Every election, I google all the judges and city council candidates and vote for the ones who seem least NIMBY. The judges are almost always NIMBYs. The city council members I vote for almost always loose.

If the CU students who were eligible to vote in Boulder would do so, this wouldn’t happen.

Is python being easy to learn actually true?

I’ve never found this to be true, I think that’s partially because I don’t find Python to be very fun to write in, so I don’t enjoy it very much, so I don’t learn new things about it very quickly.

They could actually make this work.

• Have a recruitable Volus biotic warrior who you pick up in a nightclub and has romance dialog options.

• They go hang out in some big room on the ship, like a cargo hold.

• If you choose the romance options, more Volus just start showing up on your ship with no explanation. Like the next time you go in the cargo hold there’s another one, then two more, then you start seeing them in the mess hall, engineering, medbay…

• There’s either dialogue options to ask what’s going on (and kick them off the ship) OR there’s more romance dialog options, but you can’t do both!

• If you keep choosing romance options, they eventually all show up in your room at the same time. It turns out that when Volus take a new partner, their whole extended polycule is allowed to vote on whether or not they approve of the new person being added to your dynamic. There’s a whole scene where you and your new partner have to lobby, bargain and plead for them to include a human. Maybe whether they accept you or not has to do with other choices that you’ve made.

Winter is coming

Capitalism is the system wherein the least qualified, most self interested party holds all the decision making power.

“Fitting sequel into MCU timeline…”

After Deadpool and Wolverine, who even cares anymore?

Points for the correct answer. I work on systems for spacecraft and podman is what we use on those for containerization (better option for a couple reasons)… but we literally just SAY docker to the suits, because that’s what they’ve heard of. Which is why I said docker to this guy.
