  • I still use grep with journalctl because I find their built-in filter to be poopy.

  • Fist in the air in the land of hypocrisy.

  • Man, that bugs me how many Americans are out there giving the rest of us a bad name. I don't travel, but if I did, I'd be grateful a non-native English speaker knew any English at all. And not learning enough of their language to at least get you by for the trip just sounds like poor planning in general. Some people are just incapable of looking before they leap, and for some reason a bunch of those people travel.

  • Yeah, I buy a case of these every so often. The label is goofy and probably made by someone who didn't realize what they were implying chemically, but the ingredients are 100% coconut water. No added sugar. No pulp. Good source of potassium. Really delicious.

  • Technically not from space since the lower stage never made it past the Karman line, which is 100km above sea level.

  • 10yo me realized that other sized batteries that were also 1.5v could be used as well if I had enough tape and aluminum foil, so then all the flashlight D batteries around the house started to go missing as well.

  • It's not even VESA. DOS just uses the VGA 80x25 character terminal mode that all x86 computers still have to start in for backwards compatibility, where "video memory" is mapped to 0xb800 in the 1MB real mode address space. Software you run can then change the video mode, such as to a VESA mode if supported, or for ultra nostalgia, "screen mode 13" (320x200 256-color mode).

  • I've heard that some people end up using food as a substitute.

  • I know this is just for laughs, but from what I've read, Jupiter's gravity well does about as much harm as good.

  • I was pretty into x86 asm in my teens. Nasm was my go to. Anyone else ever play with MenuetOS?

  • I'm a long-time Samba fan, but even I wouldn't run them as DCs in a production environment.

  • Exactly this. Myspace was great for meeting new people. They even let you search for people in a given area by age, gender, interests, etc. Facebook, from what I remember (deleted mine years ago), was actively hostile towards you meeting people on their site, to the point that if someone added you that had no mutual friends, the site would ask if you knew them in real life.

  • From what I've read, YouTubers don't get paid from views that use an ad-blocker, but they still do from views that have premium, so my justification is that I'm helping support the creators I like. I'm also paying for Nebula, which some of the documentary-style creators upload to as well now.

  • I'm one of the dozen people that bought premium to not have to deal with it. I'm just patiently waiting for alternatives to become more viable so I can jump ship entirely. YouTube is the last remaining Google service I still use.

  • The FAA might have something to say about it.

  • I used it on a laptop for a while. Pretty impressive just how lightweight it is, but a bit of a grind to initially get everything working as expected. Overall, I'm a big fan.
