I wish! I’ve got the hardware to support it, but neither of the two ISPs available at my house support IPv6.

Oh yeah, I’m also keeping a eye on that. Every time I see nvidia pop up in my updates, I try logging into Wayland and doing my usual tasks. If it starts working, that’ll just let me extend the life of this card. I’ll probably still strongly consider switching flavors with my next card.

This won’t be the year of the Wayland desktop for me unless I can afford to replace my Nvidia card this year. I’ll never buy one again, but I’ve still gotta suffer with the one I have a bit longer.

Just wanted to let you know I’ve had these books on my “to-read” stack for a few years now, and your comment got me to start reading them yesterday. They’ve already got me hooked, so thanks for the nudge!

Marc Shaiman, composer for South Park: Bigger, Longer, and Uncut, along with a whole lot of other great shit.

They don’t expire here, 3ither, but I found a 10-year-old gift card after a move and the company had switched to a new gift card system, so I had to spend an hour calling around to get my ancient gift card converted to modern store credit. It was not worth it for $20.

Dicking deeper means something entirely different from digging deeper.

You may find some stores in some places that will take this stuff, but as far as I know this is not commonplace in much of North America.

Every single lowes or home depot has a recycling station for batteries and CFL bulbs at the entrance or near the customer service desk. I assume those stores are all over the country.

I savescummed nethack as a kid, telling myself I was learning how to play. Then one day I decided to play on an online server where that wasn’t a possibility. There is nothing like the feeling of achieving a goal the legit way. I learned soooo much more during those many perma-death runs than I ever did by save-scumming, and I’m actually proud of those ascensions.

Thank you. As much as I want more info, there’s literally nothing to discuss unless they bring hard evidence.

Yeah, I get that. I treated my reddit account like that. My reddit account was 15 years old and you can do some sleuthing and doxxing and track down my real name if you’re persistent enough. Nowadays I value privacy a bit more, so I just save important stuff to my second brain (these days it’s in Obsidian.md, but I’m not married to a specific app).

Karma is nothing more than fake internet points. When I tire of this persona or decide I’d rather make my home on another instance, I’ll just spin up a new name wholly unrelated to the old name.

xjack is one of my all-time favorite programs.

but then I can just bypass it by forcing my computer off then powering it back on. Then what’s the point of having it?

You already have your answer, so I’ll just add that not every implementation is the same. Our VDI deployment provides virtual desktops to remote users. Their own physical power buttons would only reset their thin client, not the remote workstation that has access to our secure network. If they want to reset that 10 minute timer early, they have to call IT and we can reset the virtual machine from our end after confirming that they’re a valid user. But yes, some software security is trivial to bypass if you have no physical security.

Stupid? Maybe if verifying “facts” is your sole metric. I know people who aren’t very media savvy who fall for some stupid propaganda, but they could empty my car’s engine bay and put it back together again and have it cranking the same day. Or you can drop them in any body of water in a 250km radius and they’ll know what fish can be caught there and be able to hook an edible-sized one in half an hour or less. We don’t all have the same skill sets, but we ain’t all “stupid”.

In German, BRISE is exactly sounding like English BREEZE and means the same. I don’t know French, but my translator says BRISE means “BROKEN” in French, and being French, I can only assume you pronounce the first few letters, then make a sound like clearing your throat.

Lemmy is filled with leftists and geeks. They’re the same demographic.

There are more women than men

Also, 1 is correct if we consider significant figures. It may be slightly less, but rounded to the nearest whole number is most certainly 1.

Do you understand how averages work?

If there are 8 billion people on this world and each one has one skeleton in them, then the average number of skeletons is one. If even one of those 8 billion people have two skeletons in them, then the average is slightly more than one.

So the average is more than one for pregnant people, but also for all people as a whole.
