If you don’t do a lot of highway driving a Subaru Sambar van is awesome and they’re dirt cheap to import. Next year the 1999 models will be available and they’re very improved for safety features compared to the 1998 ones.

When the Kei Vans were first made they made being able to fold the seats down flat into a bed a big priority because of how high rent was in the 80s and 90s in Japan.

Edit: I should mention that the improved safety features is that a front crumple zone exists at all, it’s still not safe, but it is a lot better than the older ones.

Evrala,

It’s also likely that he was never intending to share them. One of the things he was looking to do is aquire a large dataset to analyze trends.

In other words, he was charged for entirely legit use.

After announcing increased prices, Spotify to Pay Songwriters About $150 Million Less Next Year (www.billboard.com)

When Bloomberg reported that Spotify would be upping the cost of its premium subscription from $9.99 to $10.99, and including 15 hours of audiobooks per month in the U.S., the change sounded like a win for songwriters and publishers. Higher subscription prices typically equate to a bump in U.S. mechanical royalties — but not...

Evrala,

If I still used Apple products I’d still be using Apple Music. Good sound with the ability to upload my own music library to mesh with it seamlessly to cover the gaps of what wasn’t available? It was my ideal music streaming service.

Now I’m on Deezer but every streaming service has gaps in their catalog for what I listen to.

Slowly working on getting my own music library together to get rid of streaming services entirely. Plan on using Plex for now, but eventually I’ll just move to a phone that has an SD card slot.

Mix of purchases and stuff downloaded and saved from Deezer.

Evrala,

Child marriage is already legal in quite a few states with parental permission. And there are a lot of terrible parents.

Evrala,

If I had to give up YouTube I’d move to Nebula. It’s been growing and is steadily getting better.

Evrala,

Yeah, they’ve got a ton of great documentaries there, plus some other series that are pretty great.

Evrala,

They were most likely made by women, the proportions make sense when you think of a woman looking down at herself. It is just that when the first men to uncover the artifacts looked at them they said “wow, these were obviously made by men and are ancient porn!”

There are ones that have been found at various stages of pregnancy so were likely an educational tool.

Evrala,

I got a bunch of rgb in order to set it all to purple on my desktop. But then I started using Linux full time on it so I lost the windows rgb software, and was too lazy to fix it. So it went from looking amazing to this ugly clashing thing for the last 3 years I used the system as each part eventually reverted to its demo mode.

Evrala,

I don’t use the system anymore but at the time the parts I had weren’t supported.

Evrala,

At least it is an Airport already named after a horrible person?

I know of an Adonis. Skinny gay kid that was really into gymnastics and choir. He went by his middle name, don’t remember what it was.

Evrala,

I got it refunded. I’ll play it in a couple years after all of the patches and when I have a new gpu

Evrala,

My first was Suse Enterpise Linux. Bought from Best Buy in the late 90s.

Evrala,

A few years back there was a guy who managed to get his US citizenship revoked while overseas at an embassy. He ended up not getting citizenship in his country of choice and was deported to USA, where he was denied entry. Ended up in South America somewhere as a stateless refugee.

Evrala,

It’s not Ubuntu but the fuel control systems and the pumps at Speedway run linux. They also boot really fast.

Michigan lotto terminals are also all linux.

Evrala,

“Remember us… Remember that we once lived…”

And

“So let there be no way back. From that temptation I sunder us. No more shall man have wings to bear him to paradise. Henceforth, he shall walk.”

From Final Fantasy XIV. There are so many more, but those two stick out the most in my mind.

And I suppose “for those that we have lost, and those we can yet save.” For my favorite recurring line.

Evrala,

I ran Gentoo in high school. I think I spent more time tinkering on it than I ever did getting anything done, but damn was it fast. I ripped support out for everything except for my hardware.

Evrala,

Just got a new laptop and put an arch flavor on it, keep thinking of going back to Tumbleweed. I’ve kept on Arch derivatives cause of the AUR, but I haven’t actually touched the AUR in a while, and a couple of the things I used the AUR for are now being published as flatpaks by the creators because of the Steam Deck.

Evrala,

Back when the stories broke that the CIA helped to fund itself for their Contra operations by smuggling cocaine into America they helped protect the CIA because they were angry that a small time paper and Gary Web broke the story instead of mainstream media.

There are declassified CIA documents talking about how helpful the LA Times and New York Times were on helping them cover up the scandal. They were worried about the continued existence of the CIA with everything coming out but mainstream media came to their defense unprompted.

Evrala,

A friend of mine worked in home depot, there was an old guy who worked there, loved to sexually harass younger women. They complained, multiple times, raised the issue higher in corporate. Corporate came down and declared it a “he said she said” situation even with multiple complaints, one of them being a customer. Did nothing, old guy got worse when he realized he could get away with it.

More complaints, woman who made the newest complaint got a talking to for bringing up a situation that had been settled.

Evrala,

Star Trek Online. Gods what a janky mess, but I keep coming back to it.

Evrala,

If you read the article, it’s because the tiny particles of carbon from the wood are less damaging for the environment then filling the upper atmosphere with aluminum particles when they burn up upon reentry.

Evrala,

Currently there is a lot of price fixing going on. Landlords use software to set the rate. They really like it because it allows them to point to the machine to remove empathy from the equation.
