And here I thought roads were for people... I'm so silly

As a 40k fan, there are so many good ones (as comes as a surprise to no one). Some personal favorites of mine are:

• Anything from the 3rd war for Armageddon
• The battle of Hellsreach
• The invasion of Rin's world
• Istvan V dropsite massacre
• And of course the fall of Cadia

Not fiction nor fantasy, and that I think makes it all the more deserving

I think they are $100 bills. So the math should work out

"chown" is a command for changing the users and groups who own a file. But the options "775 xyz" are used with chmod, a command for changing what permissions the owners and groups have over a file. I'm not sure what you're trying to do so I can't tell what part of the command is wrong.

Either way you can run a command with elevated permissions by putting "sudo" in front of the command. Or by switching to the root user by using the command "su" or "sudo -i" (if you have sudo access, but don't know the root password)

I think it has its place in things that need to be fixed in the field where you may not have access to a screwdriver. Other than that they kinda suck

Smells like bitter almonds, which smell like bleach.

Yeah, maybe I'm the one who hasn't gotten over it. Some days it's the worst part of going to work (the other days it's usually the weather that's the worst part)

I put roofs on, both slate and standing seam. They would probably be surprised at how much money the really rich people have. But explaining standing seam would be pretty easy.

We even get our copper from Revere, as in Paul Revere, though he wasn't born until 1735.

I think it has to do with the st. Lawrence. But yeah the queebs are weird.

A stoic though that helps me more than "man up" is asking myself "what harm will come to me?" In stoic thought we're the only ones who can harm ourselves through the misuse of our impressions. We often know how we should act in a situation, but we don't want to because of some perceived harm or discomfort. But since the stoics believed the only real harm was moral, we're only hurting ourselves by not acting virtuously.

Will I hurt myself more by action or inaction? Through inaction what kind of person will I be? What will I lose through inaction?

I mean, the war in heaven was the most cataclysmic event. It's sort of the first galactic scale apocalyptic event in the lore. Gods were fighting gods, some races rose in power, while others ceiced to exist. It's speculated that at some point the nature of the warp changed, and was later distanced from baseline reality.

But this is all background to the lore, and none of it ever happens in the books, so I'm not sure it really counts. I think the same could be said for the fall of the eldar.

So probably the horus heresy or the 13th black crusade. My money's on the latter as it caused the great rift.

College towns usually mean that the town doesn't have any identity outside of the college. In some ways that's nice, because you have a big community right there. But in other ways the town won't really do anything without the college.

Sorry it's been a really long week and the brain worms are getting to my language center...

I mean most people from the US ask "What the hell is wrong over there?" About Florida pretty regularly. So clearly the other 49 states also have no clue either.

Lots of physical activity, like lots. First I got into back country snowboarding. Then the snow at the resort was also really good, so I would skip lunch to ski more. Picked up running in the off season, did some pretty long trail runs. Back in snowboard season, lots of uphill in the mornings when I can. Running when it's warm. Cross country skiing when there's snow.

I also try to stay away from refined carbs, since they make me sleepy, and then hungry in a couple hours. Also eat lots of protein. Also quit drinking booze mostly.

Bloat is just a meme, it comes from a time when sysadmins would need to optimize every aspect of a system to get the most out of it (like not using vi, because it took up too much space/memory). You will never need to get that much performance out of your machine.

I try not to install programs all willy nilly. If I want to try something new, I'll fire it up in a vm. I mean this about programs from 3rd party sources, and compiling from source. Anything in the repos is good and will uninstall cleanly too.

On fedora you get more programs through RPMfusion. It's sort of official, but also not. And you can also check out the copr repository, this is more like fedora's aur. Opensuse's open build service also sometimes has packages that work for red hat systems.

When I first started I wanted Linux to work just like Windows. It took me a while to shift my perspective to the way Linux people do things. I don't know how to speed up that process though.

Politics is one of those things that's easy when you say it, but much harder for you to do. But if that's easy for you to do, then please do it, for all our sakes.

Well usually more people means a higher bill, more people is more work. Lots of places even just add gratuity to the bill once a group size is large enough.

But tipping is dumb, and working in the service industry sucks... I have no easy solutions.
