Uhh wait, but Vader is younger than Padme!

Organized religion.

Nothing comes even remotely close.

Sorry to hear that man. But if your family excludes you because you don’t have an iPhone/iMessage, maybe you need a new family, not a new phone.

Well, to be honest the ruble has been sucking for a while:

However, it now sucks more.

I have wireguard for other purposes but I also have ssh open on a different port. I don’t much understand the argument of exchanging ssh for wireguard. In the end, we’re just trading an attack vector for another.

My ssh only allows connections from my user. If I’m using password auth, I also request a 2FA.

Tail scale is also a good idea but I don’t like having my control plane under someone else’s control.

Holy shit, came here to say that. Nothing compares to the pain of having a tube inserted in your urethra all the way down to the bladder, and as the tube is turned (it’s a camera) it hits the sides of the bladder and it starts to bleed, and it burns like nothing I’ve felt before.

Go

It’s like C with better syntax and without memory management annoyances. It also comes with a decent standard library and making concurrent programs is a breeze. As a bonus it generates static binaries which, granted, are big but in most cases can be copied to any other Linux workstation and executed directly.

Unfortunately, I only had limited interactions with him. I was the lead on a project that needed a few things from his team, and we had a number of meetings due to that.

From my limited contact, he seemed like a chill guy. Never made any unreasonable assumptions and had a technical view on how to solve problems.

Pink does not exist either.

Username checks out

Man, I’m sad 😔.

I knew him personally (we worked for the same company at a point in time, although very different departments). I’m also a heavy vim user.

We once were in the same meeting where the unsuspecting meeting chair was taking nodes in emacs org-mode. Most of other meeting members were not geeks, so nobody knew who Bram was. I said “Bram, look at this, they’re taking notes in emacs just to piss you off”, to which he responded “yeah, and it is horrible…” 😁

Farewell and :wq

Ask around the table who has fast reflexes. Get a $10 bill, scrunch it a bit and put it on the table (a bit like a ball). Ask the person to position their hand some 4 inches above the bill, palm down. Then, position your hand much higher (1.5ft) also face down and bet that person that you can grab that bill before they do.

It’s misleading because of the distance but if you’re just normal fast by the time they react you’ll already have the bill in your hands.

Even worse: the nonsense of alfalfa in California. All the residential use accounts for only 15% in this state and most of it does not come from aquifers.

Now, Alfalfa is cultivated to be sold as cattle/horse feed to foreign countries and wastes a ton of water. Same for almonds and other “boutique” crops that don’t contribute in any way to the end of hunger and fill the pockets of few with money at the expense of public water.

For command line sync to the cloud you can use rclone. It’s FOSS and works with many different cloud providers.

For a constant sync experience you can use insync. It’s closed source and requires a license though, but works reasonably well.

Sorry for the lack of direct links since I’m on the phone.

With blue eyes or else…

In fact most countries with names starting with “Democratic” or “People’s” are not democratic at all…a true democratic country does not need to advertise it in its name.

Same goes for human titles like “Honorable” for instance.

Maybe he would be interested in going to space on his starship rocket, launched from his newly designed launch pad (by himself, no less, who needs rules and pesky engineers?)

Mate desktop with i3 as the window manager. Killer lightweight combo and massive boost to productivity.

I have some intelligent and caring friends and it boggles my mind how they still think Musk is a “net positive”. Every day we hear some new example of his recklessness, support of extremist regimes, double standards and generally making the lives of people around him worse.

Oh I used sync for Lemmy for years too. Can’t wait for it to be available for Lemmy.
