BaconIsAVeg,

The world isn’t going to die overnight, it’s going to happen slowly, and it’s already started. Failed crops, mass migration, water shortages, etc. The rich need to maintain the ability to influence policies like immigration to stretch out their miserable existance.

BaconIsAVeg,

Mainly I looked at it to see if it would be viable for our non-techie contract developers who are forced to license Docker Desktop because they’re on Windows.

Yes, $60/year/user isn’t that much, however the procurement process for some of these large contracting firms will make your balls shrivel up and fall off.

BaconIsAVeg,

But I was really surprised at how emotional it was, especially with Uta’s motivations and backstory.

There’s a couple of scenes in the first two seasons that just thinking about years later makes me tear up. – old man

BaconIsAVeg,

There’s a couple of scenes in the Arlong Park arc. Nami bawling her eyes out and finally asking Luffy for help, the desk scene, and then the other one I was referring to was Vivi holding up her arm saying goodbye as they realized she couldn’t come with them.

BaconIsAVeg,

Sure, but do you live within a few hundred feet of a shelter? Do you walk your dog during the day and see the the daily cavalcade of ambulances and police cars stopped outside one? Ever been stopped at a red light outside your building and had someone walk up to your window asking for change, then curse and spit on you because you don’t carry cash?

There’s a huge difference between helping people get back on their feet, and just sheltering drug addicts.

BaconIsAVeg,

Why do her tits look like a thrice-filled diaper?

BaconIsAVeg,

TikTok is and always has been hot garbage, so I can see why kids would enjoy it.

Is Congress Going to Kill Credit Card Rewards? (www.nerdwallet.com)

Legislation known as the Credit Card Competition Act, first introduced in Congress in 2022, is described by its sponsors as encouraging “competition in electronic credit transactions.” But if lawmakers end up passing the measure, opponents say it could also torpedo the rich rewards and perks that cardholders have enjoyed for...

BaconIsAVeg,

But time and time again, vendors have shown that when their costs decrease, they definately don’t pass those savings on to the consumer. Prices for a lot of goods only go up, never down.

BaconIsAVeg,

21, all year round. When the sun hits the windows and I don’t have the shades down, and it creeps up to 23, I can’t definitely feel it.

BaconIsAVeg,

Email marketing is the only effective way to grow a business online these days

Sorry, but I call horse_shit_ on this. If the only way you can grow your business is to shovel your garbage into my personal inbox, then it’s spam, plain and simple.

If I have to give you my e-mail address to order something and you default “sign up for more of my bullshit” to checked, then fuck you.

BaconIsAVeg,

You know that’s not going to happen though. Someone will come along and tell them all their problems are Biden’s fault and they’ll keep voting red until the day they die.

Spokane, WA's mayor on stage at major Xian Fascist event (rangemedia.co)

At a gathering of Christian nationalist preachers called Let Us Worship on Sunday night, Spokane Mayor Nadine Woodward took to the stage with other political candidates to receive prayers and an endorsement from former Spokane Valley legislator-turned-pastor, Matt Shea....

BaconIsAVeg,

Nvidia doesn’t work out of the box on a lot (Debian for example)

But it DOES work. Debian/Arch/etc push the responsibility to the user to finish setting things up (kernel command lines, drivers, etc). How exactly is that an Nvidia problem and not just distros sticking it to their users resulting in user anger towards Nvidia?

Nothing “works out of the box” on an operating system without the OS installation process using auto-detection to guide the users through the additional steps required to setup WiFi, Bluetooth, etc. Yet for some reason when it comes to hardware GPU acceleration, the Linux distro response is just “fuck, Nvidia? figure it out yourself, I can’t be arsed to add the required config files and kernel command params”.

BaconIsAVeg,

I don’t even understand how Wayland has diehard fans. Do they just exit out from their hyperland rice into an X11 session whenever they need to share their screen during a Teams meeting, or do they just say “if it doesn’t work on Wayland it sucks and I don’t use it”.

BaconIsAVeg,

I was on Ubuntu 22, and now I’m on Arch with a 3090. Daz3d+iray/dforce works, FFXIV works, Stable Diffusion works, X11 works, everything I throw at my card just works. Blaming Wayland not working on Nvidia is just ludicrous as Wayland is it’s own pile of half baked dogshit.

BaconIsAVeg,

It’s a danger pretty here in Night City.

BaconIsAVeg,

Do you believe the union thought they would get 2 weeks, or did they start with that knowing they’d need to bargain down? I seriously wonder if they could have gotten 4+3 if they’d kept the strike up.

Also keep in mind, no one wants to strike. It’s a means to an end. Striking is pretty devastating for the workers and their families.

BaconIsAVeg,

In February of 2020, a Wendy’s Single was $3 CAD. Yesterday they were $6.99.

That’s not 8%.

BaconIsAVeg,

That’s always a problem when searching for products/brands with common words as their name. Just last night I was trying to search for popular kittens for kitty (the terminal emulator).

Good luck with that.

BaconIsAVeg,

The auto-detect seemed nice, but was missing some key features.

  • unable to pass additional arguments to shells (that I could find)
  • i.e. i need to start some of my terms in certain directories to take advantage of .direnv set environment variables
  • also when I wanted to connect to my docker containers, or even remote hosts, i’d rather do it as a certain user than always connect as root
  • didn’t enjoy using it in dwm, though I imagine any tiling window manager would have the same issues: way too many pop-ups
BaconIsAVeg,

I have one as well. Did the firmware update a few months ago when it would periodically just start skipping or stop responding (I have my music collection on it). Haven’t had an issue since.

Recommendations for a Linux system backup tool

I am currently using EndeavourOS for my laptop. Is there a backup solution that is easy to use, and can be run from the EndeavourOS install media without internet? (RSync is included, but no other backup tools are included, to my knowledge.) I don’t want to use another ISO due to space constraints on my USB.

BaconIsAVeg,

I don’t want to use another ISO due to space constraints on my USB.

What? A 32GB thumb drive is under $10…

BaconIsAVeg,

Other than a new wave of death threats and science denial I’m sure.
