“I said a racist lie about my neighbor then committed a terrorist attack”

How widespread was this? I grew up in the 80s/90s and pre GPS we just had a map in the car. I’ve never heard of such a hotline until seeing this post.

I like and use signal, but of course the problem is convincing someone else to start using it in order to send you a message.

If you had anything real to say you’d be linking to it or even talking about specific examples. Instead it’s “there’s stories”, “there’s been reporting”.

This is gruesome for sure. That said, most ways of killing people in war aren’t good ways to go. Killing is going to cause suffering.

Ideally we wouldn’t kill. And then if we do it hopefully it’s quick and doesn’t prolong suffering. And then if we’re pushed to the point that it’s us or them hopefully it’s them.

Wow, stories have circulated you say? /s

Unlike Iraq and Afghanistan, which were immoral American misadventures, this is a Russian misadventure, and supporting the Ukrainians is pushing back against aggression.

It could be a career, or religion. For me I was planning to become a pastor, but then became an atheist. It really did throw me off. In my case I think I’m much happier than I would have been, but do kick myself because I could have been positioned much better if I wasn’t making plans in this other direction.

Every business’s biggest expense is labor. Skilled labor costs more. The people in charge like it when you save money.

I think it’s wrong. But only because the interests of the people who own the machines and businesses diverge from the worker’s interests. I’d like to see more worker cooperatives. If the workers own the machines, then it’s good when things are automated.

I also don’t believe anything will ever be truly automated, or that it’s a good idea to try.

All that to say we don’t have to resort to an explanation of “managers must hate engineers” to understand why they would want to eliminate positions.

I don’t think it’s just managers saying hey we could automate such and such a thing away. It’s human nature to think “how could I improve this” which almost immediately leads to “if I get this right it could mean no work at all”

Isn’t the question here why shouldn’t friends not let friends use CSV?

You absolutely want a keyboard when programming, but you can get one that works with the ipad. As someone else suggested the software environment is probably more the limiting factor.

Lol well sorry the joke didn’t go over, but thanks for contributing.

After reading the alt text and googling I’m still baffled. The actual google trends show no spike in interest, so I guess OP is saying they wish Slackware was back on people’s radar, and maybe the Slackware maintainer could do that using a stunt name change.

Oh man we’d be so fucked if all plants were sentient. We’d still eat, but we’d be doomed to commit plant war crimes to live

True, but the article says this like a liquid

That’s pretty cool. They say it produces good pork, I wonder how the pigs feel about it vs other feed.

There’s no way this isn’t a known spell somewhere within the wizarding world. Another example of the shitty education system found in the Harry Potter universe

For making porn of course

I learned cursive but I’m sure have forgotten how to write it, especially some of the capital letters. Thing is learning it now is really just for backwards compatibility. Yes, it’s faster to write in cursive when writing by hand, but how often is that coming up these days, for most people?

Gather round, children, time to learn how to use a dial up modem, and after that we’ll go over Morse code.
