God damn it, I hate this hacker crap!

Weirdly enough, I've never got fprint working on my thinkpad (albeit I've only attempted twice).

Both times, it works fine whenever I only set up my index finger. Adding my thumb (or any other finger) then prevents either from working, removing either finger removes both, and then prevents me from adding it back.

I have no idea why I'm having this issue, but I'm assuming I'm just missing something.

I don't think this will solve the issue OP is describing. They're concerned at the existence of fascists on reddit, not just that they are seeing them. Blocking them all would be more like sticking your fingers in your ears and saying it doesn't exist.

Simple. It's theirs when it works and yours when it doesn't.

Ad + incorrect use of meme

I hate how it seems to be a priority of our government to support Israel and that there isn't a single party that we could elect who would actually put an end to that support.

At this point, why even consider getting a Roku?

Note, I rarely, if ever, use a TV anymore, so smart TVs have never appealed to me. But Roku seems to be very anti consumer (between the forced arbitration and their ad policy), so I don't understand why someone looking to get a smart TV would actually want a Roku over an alternative.

Maybe I'm just poorly informed, but it just seems like almost anything else should be a better option?

I hate that it lines up so perfectly, and then is missing a single syllable following "linux".

You act as though I'm not bitter about it. You pointing out how great it was and how much it sucks that I missed it only makes me more bitter.

There is no job market where I live. As in within my friend group, we have collectively applied to ~30 jobs in the last year and gotten 2 responses. My employer was very clear that they were not giving time off for the eclipse, so that wasn't an option. And had I just left, bye bye job. Can't pay rent, can't afford food.

If you want to point out how much it sucks, by all means. But don't act like you know my situation, like I don't know what I had to miss out on, and then point to fucking xkcd saying "see? I'm right".

Grow some fucking perspective.

Buddy, I have bills and the options were "see totality and lose job" or "see 99% coverage and keep job".

It was 3pm on a work day, so no that wasn't an option.

Truly one of the systems of all time.

I was 20km from the path of the totality. The next one I'll even be able to see a partial eclipse isn't happening until ~2045.

And every old cock in the farmyard stock singing triumph to Sinn Féin

No no, that's the IRS. They're much worse.

The book is better than the movie, and Jurassic Park is one of my favourite movies.

When I was a kid (primary school, ~2010), I watched a History Channel show about it with my little brother.

Back then, we just thought the "Boston Molassacre" was a funny name for a tragedy, so it's stuck in my head.

Boston

But if I call them that, people will think I'm talking about the Conservative Party of Canada (who also go by CPC).

It did add an international arms market, where you can trade excess things for civs.
