what you call yourself isn’t important.

yeah, i agree... that's why i hate labels.

diet that’s compatible with not fucking the environment

and for health, and for a bunch of other reasons... but we don't need another label for it.... my choice of food is simply my choice of food... it doesn't need to be categorized

i cut down my meat consumption to almost zero. maybe some beef pho on the weekend sometimes..... but i HATE the term flexitarian.... i refuse to call myself that...

Weather underground is owned by IBM now

Anyone know of a community driven, non-profit weathet platform we can share weather station data with?

Is this why our cruise ship in hawaii (sailing only between hawaiian islands) was american flagged and crewed by americans?

I was surprised because i always heard stories about how cruise ships are often crewed by exploited internationals and flagged in questionable jurisdictions so that workers can be abused.

Wow, did not know this...

I think i will accelerate my plans for a new NAS lol

QNAP is taiwanese and still providing software patches for my 8 year old NAS. I think they are reasonably trustworthy

But i agree with you, i'm going to build my own NAS from scratch this year...

There's something extra sad to me about newfoundlanders having to leave for work.... And nobody expresses homesickness so beautifully

No change in the weather
no change in me
I dont want to leave but
You cant live for free
You cant eat the air
And you cant drink the sea
No change in the weather
And no change in me

I would really like an LLM to be integrated into the terminal to provide helpful explanations of error messages and reminders of which common options to use for things like curl and tar

Like, i still dont know how to use tar without looking up the options every time

So the ending to the story which i didnt feel like typing out earlier was that i loaded debian on to the macbook and it runs 2x faster now with regular security updates....

The vast majority of people will never edit a video. The vast majority would be perfectly happy doing 90% of their work in a browser on older hardware instead of chucking it in the bin

Its hilarious that apple is creating a bunch of ewaste for no good reaaon?

My mom's macbook is 14 years old and perfectly functional. So why doesnt it work (well) anymore?

Apple doesnt provide updated root certificates anymore, so all https sitesare borked.

I always hated that the most upvoted art on reddit was just photorealism... Abd then the comments were all like, "Wow! I was 100% sure this was a photo until i zoom in!!!"

i added 10 different ppa to my sources.list and it broke everything!!! why did debian do this?!?

I'm pretty sure i read an article a few years ago about someone who voted for ford and lost their UBI...

"I didnt realize the leopards would eat MY face!"

I'm curious to know how many of the plaintiffs voted for dougie ford...

My debian laptop always reconnects to my wifi automatically

The only annoying thing is it always asks for a password unless you set it to save the wifi credentials for everyone instead of encrypted.

I cant remember the exact wording of the option, but its in thr security tab of each wifi network

I'm not a developer, but I use AI tools at work (mostly LLMs).

You need to treat AI like a junior intern.... You give it a task, but you still need to check the output and use critical thinking. You cant just take some work from an intern, blindly incorporate it into your presentation, and then blame the intern if the work is shoddy....

AI should be a time saver for certain tasks. It cannot (currently) replace a good worker.

"Deeply unlikely" sounds like a stylistic mistake by a bad LLM. I've never heard that one.

"Highly unlikely" is the more common expression

Now do canada.... Lack of competition here is killing us

it was marketed here (north america) as an australian beer... i think their slogan was "australian for beer" at some point. also parodied heavily in the simpsons episode in australia...

never heard of any associations with japan or england
