When I read "hostage", my mind raced to still black and white photos from WWII. Not full HD colour video footage.

What happened to the world, where its 2025, and there are STILL wars and hostages happening...

Just picture the alternate timeline we could be in if THIS was the original, and loss was the edit...

Pretoria. National Flower of South Africa.

A few years ago, we buried my last grand father. Mom made a speach about how she used to be young, and look up to her parents and grand parents. Now she has no one to look up to.

She (and her brother and sisters) are the next Elders of the Family.

Siblings and cousins then realised that WE (early to late 20s) are the next generation to be planning funerals, and will have to import these flowers to make mom happy in the future.

Hopefully that day is still 10-20 years in the future, but it is still on the radar of "someday, I will be calling around for these flowers"

I remember ZERO of my 12 year old me tests. I think there's when I learnt pythagoras? And/or co-ordinates?

(shows what I remember. Screw English/history. Maths is king/s)

E: I'm sure RJ and Ryan (class clowns back then) are even more successful then me... What sucks even more is, I don't remember their last names. So trying to find them on f*cebook is almost impossible, yet I am now curious on how my middle school classmates are going now...

Challengers and Ninja Turtles are their best non-fincher sound tracks. (Including fincher, I love to listen to The Social Network when cleaning the house/upgrading computer)

 

I watched House of Dynamite over the weekend, but found no reviews/discussion about the movie and it's ending. So I'm opening the discussion here.

The whole movie builds up to the bomb hitting the country, but didn't show what happens next, or what was the next actions done by POTUS.

I know that there is possibly no right answer to what happens next (I can't think of another more satisfying way to end the movie) but it was still annoying. Building up all that tension to just cut to title.

I still loved the movie. Saw about half trailer in front of One Battle After Another, saw Kathryn Bigelow name, and kinda zoned out, excited by another movie by her. Didn't watch any more trailers before going in.

 

i opened reddit again today because silksong is finally out. went to see how the subreddit is going. (sadly, the silksong communities here are rather sane. r/silksong is still about 40-50% insane, but more sane posts are coming in)

front page is r/nextfuckinglevel. guy chopping wood uses a tire to keep the log upright to chop the wood easier.

i remember making a reddit acount because r/fiftyfifty and r/watchpeopledie. now its just advertiser friendly r/mildlyinteresting at best making the front page.

 

It appears to be a serious video too. Lost brain cells watching it, so I don't reccomend

 

Cant wait for the day I can delete Discord and never look back.

 

1hr+ for a general update* (following the guide. Pre-kernel)

On a more serious note, gentoo is fun... On competent hardware. This is a 4 core Celeron N2940 with 4gb of RAM.

*emerge --ask --verbose --update --deep --changed-use @world is too long to type...

 

On the one hand, my father lost his dad when he was 12, so he is not perfect. I want to assume he is atleast trying his best. But this past year, "his best" was "OK with punching his children" and as far as I know, hasnt seen his grand children. (My sister has a kid. Living happy with her partner. Since sister and partner is not married, my dad doesnt acknowlege them.)

Im OK with skipping the birthday text to father, but mother (who i still talk to) insist i send the text.

 

Im following the handbook, and I'm up to configuring the kernel. (In a vm. Skipping the optional installing firmware/microcode for now)

Trying for an OpenRC system, but it looks like all the steps need systemd.

All the videos I watched seems to skip this step and just go to Kernel configuration and compilation, but I dont want to a) mix old videos and up-to-date handbook, and b) blindly copy commands. I understood mostly everything untill now. Just this kernel step where I got lost the first time I tried to install gentoo.

 

Younger brother asking how to get earn minecoins. You cant. Have to buy them. That dissapointment in his voice. The heart break i feel as the older brother.

Cant imagine on christmas, parenta go all in on the new system and popular game, then to realise that thier child cant have the max amount of fun* without paying extra.

 

On a more serious note, how does updating apps on gentoo work? I understand that everything is built on your system, but then if the app is updated, do you need to re-compile every time?

 
 

Daily drive a Pixel 7 Pro with GrapheneOS. Does 90% of my daily needs while use my PC for the last 10%. Planned to use a spare phone with Stock Android for my holiday. Pixel 7 SIM card tray broke inside the phone. I love the Pixel software features, but with this, fingerprint issues and past battery issues, i dont know if i want another pixel phone after this

 

Too embarassed to tell anyone I know IRL, but am excited for my new future. Been throwing alot of money with small things. PC, alcohol, movies (and im ashamed to say, funko pops). Recently i took the plunge and cut out alcohol in an attempt to get my life together, and i feel like i have a whole new start.
