Never tried it myself. I did provide clean urine to a friend, but I think their plan was just to wear it in/near their crotch long enough for it to warm up.

I'd imagine microwaving might work, as long as you didn't do it too long. But, I don't know if there's some ions or proteins in urine that are more sensitive to microwaves than other heating methods.

Someone probably tried to heat "clean" urine to pass a drug test.

The war on drugs killed my convenience store burritos.

I'm late and this will get buried, but this really speaks to the difference between the open source / ESR / OSI ideology and the free software / RMS / GNU ideology.

Open source ideology says it is better because it produces better software. If MacOS X was closed source and better it serves as a repudiation of that ideology.

Free software ideology says it is better because denying users any of the four freedoms is an immoral act. If MacOS X was proprietary software and better, it would still be immoral to deny users their freedoms; the ideology is not impacted.

One executable updates the other and vice-versa. Like Robin Hood and Fryer Tuck defending one another.

That's far from the only approach, too.

How would blocking / muting work? I imagine anonymous posts to be, on average, worse that even burner-account posts.

Yeah, inner work was my intention last time I tripped, but instead I ended up vegging out and getting annoyed at my trip mates. It was a waste of time and materials.

I don't know if there will be a next time to try to do better.

Most people probably don't have a signed contract with GMail.

I haven't checked the EULA but they likely have sole discretion around dropping / blocking email, especially any email that might be deleterious to Google Alphabet's business.

I thought they had successfully converted around the time they got the infusion of funds from MS. I thought they were started as a not-for-profit, but were already shady-as-shit when they stopped publishing stuff under open licenses.

I got a 2019b Volt, but I haven't needed to put gas in it since March.

I hope it lasts another 10 years. (It replaced a 2004 (or 3?) Saturn Ion that I bought new and drove even after insurance totaled it, and the transmission lasted less than a year after I sold the Saturn.)

There are plenty of places where they don't lie to you about PTO benefits, pay, and have some group insurance plan/program.

I think your post might be illegal speech in most of the U.S. as inciting violence. Take care of yourself.

The joke swap is a frequent feature, but it's not a universal property of Weekend Update.

No. They use something called the "AT Protocol" and that's about all I know about it.

I imagine some sort of compatibility layer could be designed, but I don't know how much fidelity you could preserve.

Either is better than X/Twitter for now. Bluesky is "easier" for many people. I prefer Mastodon myself, but there's a bridge so I can follow Bluesky profiles (and vice-versa) which is nice.

I think it affects amd64 / x64 because they originally used a 32-bit time_t for compatibility with x86 to make multiarch easier.

I don't believe it affects arm64.

We've still got time to fix it, and the next release of Debian will likely have a time-64 complete userland. I don't know the status of other "bedrock" distributions, but I expect that for all Linux (and BSD) systems that don't have to support a proprietary time-32 program, everything will be time-64 with nearly a decade to spare.

Agreed. Feet look clean and healthy, and if they were removed from shoes, I can guarantee they have less foreign matter on them then the shoes they were removed from, so I'd prefer them on the seat cushion rather than the shoes. If they were removed from shoes, they might be sweater and have more bodily products in general than the shoes they were removed from, but I doubt the seats on public transit are going to long avoid sweat and skin.

Some people's insistence on covering all body parts at all times in public makes no sense to me.

In Contact (I can't remember if the movie, book, or both), they counted out things in terms plank lengths and quarks / leptons.

Fuck that. Clock noon and solar noon need to diverge less, not more.

Great policy. Misogynistic, racists, liar will say anything for attention, tho.
