Heimdall to host the links. SpeedDial is an in-browser alternative if self hosting is not an option.

There’s no compelling reason not to, but to each their own. I’m not judging either way.

But I’m not reusing the same avatar image on multiple platforms either.

I do not, but I sleep soundly knowing there are people that do, and that FOSS lets them do it. I will read code on occasion, if I’m curious about technical solutions or whatnot, but that hardly qualifies as auditing.

You sunuvabitch, I’m in!

Incoming lawsuit in 5…4…

Reminds me of that great classic:

• Table for 26?

• But… You’re with 13 people.

• Yes, but we like to sit on the same side of the table.

I have way more maneuverability backing into a space.

Think of it in terms of circles (well, arcs, really) . If you front park in a space perpendicular to the road, your front wheels make a large circle and your back wheels a smaller one. The parking space needs to be big enough to accommodate the larger circle. If you back into the same space, the larger circle happens on the road.

That’s Romania saying no to MAGA style populism.

7 Shades of Truth

Pros and cons of breadbox? Any paladins out there willing to enlighten us?

I call them the “far dumb”. They borrow idiotic propaganda from both left and right. Like: the foreigners are to blame for the state of the country, we’ll kick them out and nationalise the industry and split the profits with everyone. Except for the lazy bums in public administration, which we’re going to fire en masse.

No, ZeroGravitas is just my modest tribute to Iain M. Banks.

And fuck no, they’re appalled by the rise of braindead populism. We have a saying in our business: for every complex problem there’s a solution that’s simple, easy to understand and completely wrong. Can’t remember whose quote that is, but it perfectly captures the populist propaganda.

Came here to say this, the similarities to Erdogan’s voters are striking.

In addition, this is a protest vote, very much against something seen by many Romanians as an unholy alliance between a classical liberal party (on paper) and the spiritual descendants of the old communist party. At least that’s what my Romanian friends are telling me.

This is the keg, and Simion’s brand of nationalistic populism is the powder.

And A-women too 😁

Thank you for your service. I mean it.

Nothing personal, I try to correct this view everywhere I see it.

Y2K didn’t happen because a lot of talented engineers worked their asses off to prevent it from happening. It is the bane of IT people everywhere that the working state of the systems they create and maintain is being taken for granted by the public, with barely a thought givem to those who fight bugs, spam, cyber attacks and pure entropy every day. It is in fact a minor miracle of engineering that we’re even having this conversation.

Now I want an “Yo momma is a singleton” t-shirt 😂

Inside of you there are two wolves. One looks like a fox with owl makeup and the other like a puck-nosed shepherd dog with strabism.

That’s… surprisingly accurate. Every time he sees her, that’s a new instance of the abstract Wife in his head, which is different from the previous instance in small, but interesting ways.

For instance, current_wife.HasFood() returns true.
