Bono's gonna come onstage snapping his bleedin' fingers again.

I'd like a setting named something like "I'm over 12, so naughty words are cool" or even "my video has beeps so mark it as 'under 12' so only kids see it" because I'd rather the kid stuff was just filtered out.

I like this guy and his hatred of things more than a moment old.

Who IS on first?

Laptops are toxic to your cervical spine. There's no solution where the laptop's open and you're not gonna pay the price later.

Comparison is the thief of joy

If only someone prominent said that very damned thing 70 years ago. This entire thread could have been solved in an instant.

Göbekli Tepe was settled some 10,000+ years ago.

Istanbul was Constantinople in one of the at-least-three other empires that claimed that land. Contiguity is kinda out.

Wait until they start running other services as if they're businesses. You can talk about the days when some roads weren't toll roads.

Internet? Made in Switzerland?

I thought DARPA was American.

Whoever's writing for trump also can't figure out the trailing delimiter on the sub-clause.

Go read up about Klaus Barbie. It's worth it.

Do you really think the teachers asking for class size limits don't understand the nuance you pointed out? Do you think you're the only one who understands the complexity of the situation.

It's weird, because the experts in the situation - highly-educated people with experience teaching classes - are right there in case you want to ask.

My sister-in-law left Canada because she wanted to teach but couldn't afford it here. She's retiring in Sweden soon as a full citizen with a family and great plans.

(Imagine a decent wage and a good retirement, but also in a country where things mostly still work and make sense)

 

I found this ironic.

I don't need research into the issue, as I'm sure I did at least half of whatever got me banned. I just wanted to point out the irony, is all.

Air Canada has apologized to customers who were allegedly escorted off a plane for refusing to sit in a chair covered with vomit for the duration of their over four-hour flight.

The airline issued a statement after a viral Facebook post claimed two as-yet unidentified female flyers were told there was nothing to be done about the visible vomit on their soiled seats.

Oh! AirCanada!

We've been using Yum (and now its "differenter name is betterer" dnf) for what, 20 years?

You think we'll ever get someone with a clue to fix this? Will RedHat going all IBM about source code help?

 

Okay, so what's with Gitlab and ServiceNow getting so fat on whitespace that they no longer fit in half a 1920x1200 screen properly?

What's the standard width that actual professional webdevs are building toward? Is there a standard, or like app dependendencies are they back to pre-y2k "moar moar nom nom" methodologies?

 

Look. It happens a few times a week, where reps in 3 time-zones will be fucked by an interruption to azure services like o341 or sharepoint (we don't do VMs in azure; not secure enough).

I'm used to shadenfreuding Reddit over that, or at least finding it's not just our company firewall and VPN taking the Proverbial.

Is there a sub I can join to get the topical junk like that? I'm too indolent - like a fox! - to go to twitter (or ideally mastodon) for a more suitable location; but will I find it there if I do? Can it be here too?

 

I didn't find this yet, but please downvote to hell itself and drop a link to the proper prior post in comments if you find it.

In here, eventually, are some comments from the Fedora project leader about how RHEL trying to kill open access to source and packaging source code is potentially going to affect Fedora, RedHat's ginger adopted stepchild which it usually overlooks.

I must say there's a LOT to wait through and one of them has a mic with a bad level at times, and I didn't sit all the way through. Tell me if I've been scammed, but I thought this may have value and I'm hoping to hear confirmation of that too.

Enjoy? Or flame me. Happy Friday.
