The meme that GIMP is in any way comparable to PS? Yeah, I agree.

The only surprise here is that it was for China, not Russia.

I will never tire of reading articles like this. It's like the nectar of the gods to me.

I genuinely think that would be far more of a problem than him being indigenous, if that's what you're implying. If he were running for the CPC then yeah of course racism would be a much bigger issue.

Regardless of how he may have turned his life around, I don't think Canada is ready for a federal leader with a previous criminal record.

Isn't that movie notoriously terrible?

For whoever is interested in reading it, I quite liked the Peter Green translation. Fair warning though, it's quite long, longer than the Odyssey.

Ackshually it's only Hectoring if you drag them behind your chariot, otherwise it's just sparkling heckling.

People forget that S1 took time to build momentum too. Andor is essentially a political thriller, so people used to getting bombarded with action scenes and memberberries will struggle with it.

I just noticed that the title of this post indirectly has the name of a Rush song in it. It was meant to be!

Why, is he made of cheese?

Ubuntu in the mid 2000s, but it's PopOS that made me a fulltimer ~2 years ago. I don't use it anymore but I'll always be thankful for it.

That Germany gave rise to Fascism. It was "invented" by Benito Mussolini based on a hodgepodge of preexisting concepts and named after the fasces carried by Roman lictors, the bodyguards who accompanied high officials. Benny wanted to recreate the Roman empire so he drew a lot of inspiration from it; it's why the fascist aesthetic is so classicaly-inspired with a dash of Italian futurism, which was also in vogue at the time.

Poor Mussolini doesn't get the respect he deserves. First he failed at being a leftist, then failed at journalism, and finally the one thing he actually did that had any impact on the world is usurped by some random Austrian artist.

Obviously. Is there any point in history when the SecDef wasn't one of the juiciest espionage targets in the world, regardless of who is filling the role at the time?

Type II “sorry”

Love this, and now that I see your username I find this quote has a Banksian quality to it.

Type I: I'm sorry
Type II: You'll be sorry

Oh hey 2112... You're actually the first person here to notice / comment on it!

Based on the nonsensical chest computer/armour and other garbled elements of the image I'm going to assume it's AI-generated.

It fits — Charlie is a punk rocker whose band opened for the Dead Kennedys.
