  • I have always been partial to 'sysop' but I like sysadmin too.

  • "The Long Dark". Knowing the maps by heart and being able to navigate by landmarks is key to survival.

  • Haven't had trouble with wifi on Linux in like 12 years.

    Bluetooth on the other hand...

  • Among my friends it's more like 30%

  • Huh, this is the exact design of some of the bathrooms at SFU. I wonder if it's fairly common?

  • I guess English isn't a language in the same way that male isn't a gender and white isn't a race and hetero isn't an orientation.

  • Oblivious, oblivious, oblivious, I GET THE JOKE, oblivious, oblivious...

  • I will hold out hope!

  • Comments like this are why I'm so happy I can share Lemmy atuff on Mastodon. Well done!

  • Oh yeah. I sometimes ask my partner to take a sip of her coffee. She asks me why I punish myself. She takes it plain black, and we get it from a ton of different places.

    I've tried larger amounts to see if my palate adjusts, but it never really has. Granted, I could try harder, but there comes a point at which it's just not worth the effort. Tea is fine. Even shitty generic black teabags are okay as long as you don't steep them longer than 20-30 seconds, and maybe bulk them up with a bit of sugar and salt to cut the bitterness. Too easy to overextract them and they're usually extracted with fresh-boiling water, which is a little too hot.

  • I love how coffee smells, and heavily diluted in an icecap or something, it's fine.

    Straight up, though? Disgusting. I've tried for years to develop the taste for it. No dice.

    A well prepared tea just goes down easier.

    Even a caffeine free green tea is a step above hot water. And I'll drink straight hot water on a cold day in a pinch.

  • Clever! An actual legit medical use for essential oils!

  • Honestly doesn't sound like a terrible idea on paper, but this spam outbreak could kill it before it gets off paper in a real way. Giving devs a bad taste will stay around a long while.

    Edit: and of course the well-earned general attitude toward cryptocurrency as scammer playgrounds is automatically putting it way in the red too.

  • These things should absolutely scream on Linux. Looking forward to playing with it. Windows hasn't historically done all that well with non-x86 chipsets out of the gate.

  • Russia can end this in a day by withdrawing their aggressive seizure of sovereign Ukrainian territory.

  • If digital archival of data isn't sorted, it might well be a second Dark Age in the sense of being difficult to figure out WTF happened.

  • It's good to get some sealed containers and immediately empty the bag into multiple smaller airtight ones. I think oxidation is the main problem. I surmise that you could purge the containers with dry ice or something before closing it, too.

  • This is not important to many people, but "actively hostile to Linux users". Like, vocally nasty about it. They're not only publicly dicks about it, their launcher software self-immolates regularly.
