The audience participating in the performance by pretending that it’s real is central to the meaning of kayfabe. That never changed, even if it only recently expanded to some media that’s in your news feed.

Just needs a slight tweak to be a little less historically inaccurate: Nobody has ever been “hunted for sport” by a Zoroastrian.

Those things were great. You could make a phone call from almost anywhere without having to carry around a radio tracking device all the time.

Some investors are betting that once people wealthy enough to buy new cars get over the initial shock they will learn to relax and enjoy fascism, and quickly go back to buying Tesla cars just like they did last year.

approx $6.84USD

Huh. So definitely not worth it then. Just buy a space heater instead. When I did it a few years ago I got $500 out of it, but it cost me a $350 video card which died soon after.

Since you’re already on btrfs it’s probably better to actually use the features it has to expand your existing filesystem to cover both drives.

But if you just want to mount it somewhere and not worry about figuring out anything complicated, what I did is mount my big new cheap disk at /home/bigdisk and then have symlinks pointing to it such as ~/Videos -> /home/bigdisk/Videos.

I can imagine him practicing in the mirror for hours to get exactly the right arm motion for a Nazi salute that is imperfect by just enough that some people will contemplate the possibility that it wasn’t one.

And sheer pigheaded stubbornness.

Personally I’d put a higher priority on stamping out that use of “porn”.

You didn’t need to be “left leaning” to vote for Harris. Just, you know, not insane.

Yeah! Hit him! Right in that soft boomer belly! [munches popcorn]

I’m willing to entertain the possibility that the linux world may be lacking in some things, but I’m pretty sure “configuration tools for sysadmins” is not one of them.

Apparently I have fewer problems with it than some. It’s snap. Maybe I could come up with some other minor complaints, but nothing big really. It’s mostly just snap. That is what prevents me using or recommending Ubuntu any more.

On my system that consistently gets results around 10s and 5s so the difference is sort of interesting. Mine’s a Ryzen 3600, maybe newer CPU features are of substantial benefit to xz.

The .tar.xz format decompresses more than twice as fast as .tar.bz2, allowing you to get up and running in no time

$ time tar xjf firefox-134.0b3.tar.bz2 

real    0m9.045s
user    0m8.839s
sys     0m0.450s

$ time tar xJf firefox-135.0a1.en-US.linux-x86_64.tar.xz

Nice! Presumably it’d be twice as fast if disk was infinitely fast or something. Unfortunately by testing this I’ve already used up a hundred times more time than I’ll ever save as a result of it.

Get yourself a good nicotine vape rig. The kind that has a big tank so it’ll last all day and you can use whichever flavoured vape liquid you like best. Switch to that 100% of the time, right away, no exceptions. Don’t worry about how to quit vaping until you’ve gone without smoking for at least a few months.

It’ll be hard, but not nearly as bad as it is if you try to quit both smoking and nicotine at the same time.

I don’t think that kind of anti-labour attitude is likely to be prevalent among people who play daily NYT word games. A more mainstream response is probably more like “whatever, nerds.”

Overclocking

GPU has fallen off the bus.

If you’re lucky, it’s an nvidia driver problem. If you’re not, it’s a hardware problem.
