Debian’s great but not the best choice here.

bdonvr OP ,

Was anyone else told/under the assumption this guy got run over? Wild.

bdonvr OP ,

Link? I’ve never seen this.

bdonvr OP ,

Interesting, maybe that’s a region thing I don’t get that.

Here it is on YouTube though

bdonvr OP ,

Why would I be banned for showing a video of a guy standing in front of some tanks, climbing on them and annoying them, then going away unharmed?

Lemmy.ml tankie censorship problem

I feel like we need to talk about Lemmy’s massive tankie censorship problem. A lot of popular lemmy communities are hosted on lemmy.ml. It’s been well known for a while that the admins/mods of that instance have, let’s say, rather extremist and onesided political views. In short, they’re what’s colloquially referred to...

Of tank man? The guy in the famous photo?

Where’s the picture of this? I’ve never heard that before. It doesn’t appear in his Wikipedia page, it just says there nobody knows what happened to him after.

Yep, it’s wild what teachers tell kids sometimes.

40 clove chicken is a thing

Also there’s no such thing as too much COOKED garlic, I used to say “there’s no such thing as too much garlic” too until I made Hummus the first time. I put in significantly more than called for as per usual. I regretted it. I quite like garlic so I could power through it but it wasn’t pleasant.

bdonvr ,

Absolutely I put roasted garlic for flavor and some fresh garlic for the bite.

Apple doesn’t require you to make an Apple ID to use a Mac lol

bdonvr ,

Sure it could, but I think Apple makes so much on overcharging for the machine itself they don’t need to be so aggressive over data collection just logically.

bdonvr ,

I appreciate the high effort of this answer! People like you really help the fediverse and Lemmy.

bdonvr ,

Wait they took off the porn? There’s like always been porn on Twitter. I’m confused.

bdonvr ,

There’s quite a few that just split it in 4 payments with no interest. And typically don’t need very good credit at all.

bdonvr ,

I’m sure they’ve diverged enough for it to be pretty significant compared to the Chromium browsers

bdonvr ,

Welp, off to macOS now. Sorry guys I can’t be a part of this community anymore.

Popularize among his follower base and make it cringe to use Linux

Mint’s a great OS.

I’m really just not an apt guy though, and Cinnamon has always been a little plain for me.

I need to wake up early (lemmy.world)

All the vibrating alarm clocks I could find do not sync with your phone, and have to be set manually. I thought about getting an Arduino, but then I will have to build the whole thing by myself. The only logical conclusion I could come up with is to get a programable vibrator. But most of them are either very expensive of look...

bdonvr ,

Most modern ones last long enough and charge fast enough that it’s barely ever been a problem. I just pop it on the charger when I shower at night and when I’m getting ready in the morning. It always lasts the day pretty easy for me

POV means nothing anymore

bdonvr ,

Maybe but then the photo doesn’t really match the text

bdonvr , (edited )

Of course. If someone said “POV: a truck driver” you’d expect a scene looking out from the driver’s seat of a truck.

In this photo what does it mean? Clearly it’s not her point of view. Her mother’s? But that’s not what the text implies.

For some reason on TikTok especially people just slap “POV:” on absolutely everything.

Literally nothing about this meme would change if they left off POV. It’s utterly meaningless when used like this.

Pepsi 1893 Ginger Cola is the greatest soda known to human kind and I am absolutely devastated by the fact that I can’t get it anymore.

I like ginger so strong my nose burns thanks

bdonvr OP ,

Yeah well uh, Trump would’ve sent 1.2bn

bdonvr ,

I mean, you can get the Pi to use EFI and just boot generic images.

I’m pretty sure in game billboards with real ads has been done already

And like, in sporting games having ads where the real stadiums have them isn’t a huge deal to me as long as they don’t interrupt or put focus on them.

Though I’d prefer mock ads GTA style if you need ad space for realism purposes

bdonvr ,

I work 60 hours a week without any overtime (yes I’m hourly) or sick time.

Hell I get my vacation paid lump sum once a year so I don’t even get PTO time to use.

Shit should be illegal

bdonvr ,

In the dispatch office of a trucking company.

Having a CDL and once in a while taking loads that need covered (once a month?) I fall under overtime exemptions for truck drivers

bdonvr ,

Ehhhhhh I wouldn’t say brand new hardware. A lot of times Linux still needs a few months to properly support a new Gen of graphics cards or processors

Though it generally at least works which is a huge improvement over back in the day

bdonvr ,

Nvidia has always been a pain and that’s really Nvidia’s fault not Linux’s

bdonvr ,

Not quite, this could be exploited by telecom providers when using mobile data. Also using a VPN for networks you DON’T control is one of the more popular uses of the things

It was never justified and this didn’t start that day

AM radio law opposed by tech and auto industries is close to passing | Ars Technica (arstechnica.com)

A controversial bill that would require all new cars to be fitted with AM radios looks set to become a law in the near future. Yesterday, Senator Edward Markey (D-Mass) revealed that the “AM Radio for Every Vehicle Act” now has the support of 60 US Senators, as well as 246 co-sponsors in the House of Representatives, making...

And at night the way the signals bounce they can be heard for a thousand miles or more. Due to interference only some stations can run full power at night while most have to turn off or turn power way way down.

Occasionally it can be heard across continents even

Yeah sometimes animals need to be put down out in the country.

But she just completely failed to raise that dog to do what she wanted, completely impatient, then decided the only recourse was to shoot it.

Then just decided while she was out killin’ to shoot a “mean” goat too? Like if she hadn’t decided to kill the dog she wouldn’t have killed the goat? Bloodlust is what it sounds like.

bdonvr ,

Obstruct? No. Not even think about? Yes.

TSA will send you back to the ticket gate if your ID doesn’t match booking details.

American operates more than 49 flights per week from Miami to Havana!. Also Miami to Santiago de Cuba and Varadero 5 days a week, and Santa Clara, Camagüey, Holguín 7 days a week.

Southwest operates flights from Fort Lauderdale to Havana 21 times a week. (3/day), additionally once daily from Tampa to Havana (twice on Saturday).

Delta flies Miami to Havana twice daily

United flies Houston to Havana once daily.

Source: I hope to visit soon and researched

Of course none of these are on Cuba’s airline Cubana as I assume the US doesn’t allow it.

The Havana to Buenos Aires route is also served once weekly by Euroairlines.

Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (1971)

Great for kids, and the dry sarcastic humor is great for adults. All around great movie.

Uh I don’t think there was Wifi before that
