Interestingly, Steven Moffat nicked part of that line from Bertrand Russell lol

Assuming you mean the "weirdly Japanese" part - it's hard to say exactly, but it's made by a small team in Japan and just a kind of vaguely Japanese vibe to it somehow. Sorry I know that's not very helpful lol

I use Floorp as my main browser! I like it, it's very customisable and kind of weirdly Japanese lol

My secret Linux shame is that however much I try, I just can't understand Docker at all. Like I get the general idea of what it is, but I can't visualise how it works if that makes sense.

I have an app that runs in Docker, that I installed by just following the instructions, but I don't know where it is on my computer or what exactly it's doing, which I don't really like.

Maybe not... nutrition and general health care are a lot better these days, as is education and general access to information so if you took say, a 40-year old from 1875 and introduced them to a 40-year old from 2025, they might see someone who's bigger than them, has perfect teeth, looks half their age, and has a pretty broad general knowledge about all sorts of things they'd know nothing about.

A bit like if a 40-year old from today met someone from the year 2175 who looked about 20, was insanely fit and a foot taller than them and could casually describe how the cure for cancer, AGI, quantum computers and fusion power worked. Could be pretty intimidating!

That is a solid plan, but I know me and other me would be too lazy for that lol.

Yeah I'm writing this from an Ideapad 5 with a Ryzen CPU & integrated Radeon running Arch (btw) with no troubles. This is my second Lenovo laptop, the first one also ran Ubuntu, POP, Manjaro, Arch & Nix with no worries too.

Oh no we'd be cool! Assuming we have the same brain, we can switch out and only work half as much. And eat half as much too I guess, but that's probably good lol

Brit here. It's always been like this, at least for my whole lifetime. I remember in the 90s they were trying to get biometric ID cards going with people's fingerprints and retina scans on them, and the government has been pretty consistent with trying to undermine encryption, harvest everyone's metadata etc. Best I can tell, we seem to be the testing ground for any Orwellian nonsense that gets dreamed up, before it gets shipped out to the States and other places.

Presumably his companies must just run themselves, because we seem to be expected to believe that he's running a rocket ship company, an electric car company, one of the biggest social media sites in the world, moon-lighting as the de facto President of the United States, while also dicking around on Twitter all day long and being one of the world's #1 gamers and parenting like 15 children or whatever it's supposed to be now. (Or at least, the ones that are still talking to him I guess.)

It just seemed less pleasant lol.

Also I guess you could interpret it two ways - one bare foot and one wet sock, or one dry sock and wet one. Neither is ideal IMO

One sock, wet

I had a teacher who claimed that dinosaurs weren't real. She said that people just naturally love patterns so when we find random bones we arrange them into shapes we like. Someone in the class said what about skulls that are just one bone and she ignored it lol.

That was many years ago and it's still stuck in my memory as one of the dumbest things I've ever heard.

If it does work, does that then mean they've effectively declared torrenting to be legal? Or at least as long as you claim not to have seeded?

Can confirm! I also have AdGuard & BPC and I can browse around it with no trouble.

The Canadian stores have been owned by Sobeys since 2013!

Safeway had them on sale for like $3.50 so we loaded up lol

Not sure yet, I'm looking into it! I'll report back if I find a good one though

The only thing holding us back at this point are our shitty internet companies lol.

Fuck you Telus!
