We also have a president that thinks of himself as a king in France. Although he doesn’t have the gall to claim it publically.

This is beyond midly infuriating, it could actually be crossposted on [email protected] given the insanity of it.

I’m not completely up to speed with the core principles of Arch, but I think it revolves around KISS (Keep It Simple, Stupid!). Meaning that Arch doesn’t hold your hand with nice GUIs. Instead, it tries to make the command line interface as easy to understand and use as possible. So if you run into a problem, you’re more likely to understand how to fix it, or at least what the root cause is. Which is not a given when you’re used to distros with more abstraction like Ubuntu. Then again, this design concept is not for everyone.

The install guide is not 50 pages-long, common!

Just plug out the power cord, fuck it!

The thing is like 90% in international waters, who cares if a government renames it the gulf of the the clown car for instance? I hope there’s an international body of geograph somewhere that brings reason to these matters.

They’ve always done that for other contested regions of the world (e.g. sea of Japan/Korea, West Bank/Judea and Samaria, East Turkestan/Xinjiang). They don’t want to rile up potential personal gps data cash cows satisfied users.

Das ist fils de pute auf Franzözisch, das gleiche Akronym.

Wait, you can host a website on a raspberry pi !? But is it really cheaper than shared hosting, for instance? And even then, quality-wise, it cannot be that good, can it?

Übrigens ist FDP das Akronym für Hurensohn auf Französisch. Jedes Mal, wenn ich von ihnen höre, kann ich mir nicht an etwas anderes denken.

My technique at the pub: focus on the sudoku of the daily newspaper until I’m drunk enough to engage in conversation and be unaffected by the chaos around me. Pros: pretty good for my social life Cons: pretty bad for my liver

We the people!

True and, speaking of nuclear fusion, it’s a big if. Given the amount of “enough energy” needed.

Physics professor: That’s not true! You can make nuclear fusion with helium-3 which doesn’t make the reactor core radioactive over time. And I think that’s cool!

No need to shame people for their spelling. You never know, the person in question might not be a native english speaker or could have dislexia.

Isn’t that the definition of taxation and redistribution of wealth?

Reninds me when I stayed in this village in a guest room, for a civic mission. My host kept talking about the “black familly” in the village. And I was like: “Do you have anything to say about them apart from their skin color?” 🙄

That man has seen Back to the Future!

It’s probably a coincidence but Jean-Marie Le Pen died today you know!

If you ever try to build a public health system from the ground up in the US, don’t fall from the same mistakes we did in Europe. Namely, defunding public hospitals where most of the costly procedures happen and funding private hospitals with public money, where they mostly do low-risk profitable procedures. I could go on, but you get the irony.
