At work I dual boot Windows 10 and Linux Mint. It is astounding how much better the user experience is for updates on the Linux side. Or maybe I should say, it’s astounding how much worse the Windows experience is. I think Mint takes about as long to update Firefox, vscode, and my freaking kernel all at once as Windows takes to update Microsoft Defender definitions.

Having a comfortable retirement has already been tied to the value of stocks going up. And a while back republicans wanted to do the same to social security.
LunarVoyager is not in the jokers file. This incident will be reported.
You know what else resembles windows 7?
A default install of Linux Mint!
They’re brown AND their country has a very Spanish sounding name. I can hear talking about it now: “any sumbitches from a place called PWER-TOE REEE-KO ain’t Mexicans just as much as any sand n*****s from Saudi Arabia ain’t AY-RABS!”
My two closest friends that justifiably own trucks are women. They are dirty and beaten up base model chevrolets. They certainly don’t need to compensate for dick size. They just have big dogs and work together on a farm!
I feel like they snuck in a little square of reasonable terms with

But now that I’ve typed it, I’m scared that optimization and authenticate have gross business-speak definitions I just don’t know about yet.
I almost expect that we’ll see some company reveal it has been letting an AI control the top level decision making for the business itself, including if and when to reveal the AI.
But the funny thing will be that all the executives and board members still have jobs and huge stock awards. They will all pat each other on the back for getting paid more money to do less work, by being bold and taking a risk to let the computer do half their job for them.
True democratic culture lies not in bourgeoisie domination (as many Americans like to believe), but rather in mutual trust and cooperation in order to solve common and big problems.
American here who has visited Scandinavia a couple times.
There are so many little differences, but they add up to a staggering divide in the amount of mutual trust and cooperation you see in little everyday interactions.
Definitely. And even doing the maintenance chores for pond upkeep is a meditative exercise most of the time. Things like cleaning filters. Obviously feeding the fish is an everyday positive. I keep the food container under my big chair out there.
I’m also in a similar situation where I have been in the same place for a long time, and I expect it to stay that way. It’s ideally located and we’ve made it our nice place to be, pond included.
This is an excellent one, and one that works great for my level of neuroflavor too.
In my case, in have a big sturdy chair in my back yard next to a pond I built. Having external stimuli to focus on really helps calm the mind and be aware in the moment.
It’s like the chuckleheads writing this timeline spent a billion dollars on marketing consultants and focus groups to pick out the worst possible casting for “morally superior savior, plus secret genius subverting tyranny.”
