I don't follow you. Trump's delivering on his promises, so women shouldn't vote?

You don't need to imagine. She's telling you. She's against it.

Married at 18...oof. This person's gonna be in for some trying times.

I love spiders.

I don't blame anybody for staying with an asshole over being alone. For one thing, being alone really, really sucks. For another, a lot of assholes have clever ways to manipulate you into staying with them.

Women have cats. Checkmate!

I wonder how Scribus is doing these days.

Yeah, whenever I hear people complaining about ads, I'm like "You guys are seeing ads?!"

I could understand if you needed to be some 1337 hacker to block ads, but uBlock is one of the easiest extensions I've ever used. You just set it and forget it. There's zero configuration you need to do.

Of course, if there's some ad that slips past, then you need to do some hacking, but that almost never happens nowadays.

What's the story with the Turkish protesters?

That's funny. I have no problem drawing circles in GIMP. What are you getting stuck on?

People learned on Photoshop, and then they're upset because GIMP does things differently. I guarantee you if somebody had learned on GIMP first, it would be the other way around.

There's nothing intuitive about Photoshop. If you pick it up with zero knowledge and try to do anything, you can't. You have to take a class to learn how to use it, same as GIMP.

Sorry, Joplin is a nightmare. I want something that stores Markdown in flat files, not a database with changing versions where one version of the db doesn't work in another version.

I tried to port the database over from another system, but the new version of Joplin wouldn't read from the old version's database, and it would corrupt the database when I tried to open it. What a crock of shit. I had to figure out how to dump the data from the tables using sqlite.

I use nb now instead. It is a bit wonky because it uses NodeJS, but you can view and edit files in a web browser, and it saves each entry as a .md file, which is the sane and rational way to do it. So, if nb ever fucks off, I have all my work in a directory of Markdown files, not some broken-ass sqlite database.

That's like saying

"Nazism is a system and just that, it has no moral, therefore cannot be evil."

or

"The Transatlantic slave trade is a system and just that, it has no moral, therefore cannot be evil."

What are you talking about? Systems are created by people; they don't just pop into existence.

How do you literally develop from a cloud? Are jetpacks involved?

Don't you think they could do more good in the USA, since they're the ones paying for it?

Vivaldi is closed-source, and it still uses Google's engine. Good for you for moving away from Google, but you have much better options available to you: FireDragon, Zen, and the rest of the Mozilla browsers.

It gives recruiters the green light to contact you. You can easily test this. I've had a lot more recruiters reach out to me with it on than off.

Although staying hydrated will keep your energy levels up, tea has caffeine in it, too. As long as you're eating food once in awhile, you don't need to worry about electrolytes.

I have ADHD, and it's the opposite: I'm very sensitive to caffeine.

I've never tracked it, but I haven't ever had it go bad.
