If they die messily, how long will it be before the next courageous instinct shows up?

I like huge anime titties more than this guy, but I have the decency not to advertise the fact to my neighbors.

I don't know the meaning, either. Temba, his arms wide?

I can't imagine anyone sane wanting this. There are some innovations that I can see people wanting to roll back, but not this one.

Unless you own a coal mine, or are owned by someone who owns a coal mine, this is stupidity from any angle.

I could do without the leather. But that sounds amazing.

Agreed. With the added bonus that we have too live in the system while we burn it down. I'm not a huge fan of the idea, but then, I'm a maintainer by nature.

I have nifty tech, yes, but I also have vaccination deniers, Nazis, and my fourth "once in a lifetime" economic crises. I'm never going to buy a house. I'm never going to retire. I'll probably never even pay off my student loans.

I personally think that, largely speaking, if imports are cheaper than local production, that’s a good thing!

I'm hardly an economist, right? But I agree with you, broadly speaking. But first covid, and now Trump round two is showing is the weakness of global integration. As long as everything goes smoothly, it's jam for everyone. But let something screw up the logistics, or someone duck up the balance of trade, and everything can go to shit really fast. There are lots of things we can't make here, but we rely on them. That is less than ideal.

I don't know that tariffs are the way to address that issue, or even if it needs to be addressed at all. O do know that the way Trump is doing it is all wrong.

I saw a smart flip phone once. Small smart screen on the outside, small smart screen on the inside, and a keypad that you could use to type with, using the forgotten skill.

I would love one of those.

No. Not too much of anything, really.

And now they are gonna get away with this, too.

Delightful.

I'd go with "deshittification," myself. It's not important how or why they are shit, just that they are, and the laws in question prevent us from fixing it.

Naturally.

More fun was the question of who was the better cook.

The airport tried that shit on me today. I was able to make it print me a boarding pass, though.

I'm becoming a luddite in my middle age.

I think that's a feature, not a bug.

I don't see a problem with any of this.

I thought the whole point of Linux was that there was one for everyone? A computer itself is an incredible potent tool, but most people just want to use Facebook and YouTube.

How's that working for you? I've got a surface, and I like it, but I know that Windows is not exactly an efficient piece of software.

I cannot express it as a single word, but I've become quite attached to "cause no unnecessary harm."
