She's independent like Bernie Sanders now? Or more like Joe Lieberman? The article doesn't explain.

Lemm.ee is shutting down from lack of admins, apparently.

The light was on?

Are they using some interesting propulsion system or just old fashioned rockets? Space tug was supposed to be part of STS in the 1970s but it got cancelled iirc. Leaving just the now defunct space shuttle.

Spoiler: gas-electric hybrid, not 1000mi on a battery charge.

I have an inkplate 10, software is a bit lacking but everything is FOSS and the hardware is quite nice. They have smaller ones too, though I personally want bigger. It's also possible to jailbreak Kindles from what I hear.

Bought a Samsung mini laser printer and found that it is Windows only. I gave it to a neighbour.

Just be nice, say your romantic feelings are getting to you too much and that you want to back off if you can't pursue them. Staying open to occasional contact (like by email) is a lot better than cutting the person off completely.

Getting involved with someone with serious mental health issues doesn't sound like a great idea either, if they're not under some reasonable level of control.

Meh, I'm feeling like this whole concept is pretty flawed and it might be better by now to just run Graphene or Lineage out of the box. Maybe a niche Android phone manufacturer like Unihertz could find incentive to do something like that.

A fully FOSS dumbphone would possibly be of more interest than a smartphone, fwiw. Enough smartphone projects have failed that I'm unexcited about this latest one.

Just use a sip phone app on your mobile. I use Linphone but there are lots of them.

If Holland can have Willem of Orange, we can have Donald. Stop hassling us.

Just pick up a little bit of French and then when you meet them, you can get by with a mixture of Frenglish, gesturing, cross-language dictionaries, and help from Domenic.

I use it to initialize new VPS with my usual setup, but it might be easier to use a container format. I think Ansible itself has become a bit unfashionable since I started using it. I don't know what is cool instead now. It was Saltstack for a while but idk how long that lasted. Ansible is working mostly ok for me so I've stayed with it, til whenever.

I think the apt. building I live in is from the 1920s or so.

Someone posted this last week:

Worth mentioning, this book was written in 1954. Full text is online, find by web search.

Book was published in 1954. I hadn't heard of it previously. Based on the video blurb, the longwinded but interesting article "Meditations on Moloch" by Scott Alexander might also be of interest. The video is 12 minutes long, I guess not too bad, but I'm still not up for watching it. Here's a longer version of the blurb, I guess:

I thought that was only a problem if done for purposes of gambling.

Glad the phone call didn't go like the joke about the two hunters.
