My Internet has Pihole and uBlock. I don't know what these ad things are.

Safe to assume their keyboard does the same.

They meant to say fecal recognition. They're struggling to determine the difference between a Whopper and a whopping dookie. No luck so far, and I doubt an app is going to help.

I'd wager over half that sub is posting from Moscow.

I used to live there a long time ago. It wasn't terribly stable then. It's sad that it's only gotten worse. It's a beautiful place, with some of the kindest people I've ever known. I hope they find a way out of this.

I'm not so sure about that. It took me forever yesterday to get my international keyboard setup to work on Ubuntu the way I wanted it to. I'm saying that as someone who's been using Unix/Linux in a school, IT and home setting for 30 years. It was unforgivably difficult.

I think you might have it backwards. An empathy deficit (sociopathy) is highly correlated with the C-suite. It's not that sociopathy makes a person a better leader. It doesn't. It's more that a person with dark triad traits isn't going to care who they step on or what lines they cross to get there.

In other words, they were already screwed up.

There's nothing objective about that opinion at all. I think Mariah Carey's song is cynical corporate kitsch written for one reason and one reason only: to make money. That's why I hate it.

I can tolerate some of the secular big band/swing songs, and there have been a few decent ones since then. Fiona Apple does a brilliant cover of Frosty the Snowman. Vince Guaraldi's work for the Charlie Brown Christmas show is still wonderful.
