Dear CEO of NSA,

it’s pronounced Elon Musk is a domestic terrorist.

Best regards, Founding members of Antifa

Doctors face lawsuits too. That’s why they gave malpractice insurance.

Maybe I’m old, but I avoid AI specifically because I’ve seen the quality of code out there (not to say my quality is amazing), and if AI learned from that…. Well

Vibe coder?

Oh. Desktop user? Servers are a particular hobby of mine, so……

Maybe they don’t need to walk my path. I considered Linux From Scratch but haven’t had the time to dedicate

I know there’s a meme and I have been downvoted to shit for arch…

I think any popular Debian/redhat derived distro (mint counts) is a great introduction to Linux.

However, I didn’t really learn Linux until I installed arch. It wasn’t as… stable… as it was now. And learning how to deal with the instability helped a LOT.

Without that dive, things that could really get you down the path is trying to make Linux work for you: change the gui to your liking, and learn to use terminal.

That gets you into X/sway/DM/WM/etc. there’s plenty to learn there

Maybe don’t look up ANYTHING that bothers you. Thats a rabbit hole.

It’s a major supporter for Musk, allowing him to fund things via loans against stock. Not sure how much SpaceX pays Musk (I don’t think it’s a public company?)

I don’t know much about boring

I’m going to have to disagree with you there. I might have agreed with you during the last American presidency, but at this point Tesla is a catalyst for fascism.

I’m not sure that works. I was under the impression that shorts were fixed-term contracts and the index funds holdings are longs.

You can’t “borrow” somebody’s long and sell it and then just… not return it. You are also (IIRC) paying a premium to be able to borrow the stock to sell.

Why did you leave me out? ☹️

I live in the US and I strongly object to microwaving water. But I am also /really/ into tea so I avoid tea bags as much as possible.

Part of the cultural difference is that US is largely 110 and the UK is 220. It’s faster and easier to use an electric kettle. In the US, the microwave heats up the water “faster” vs the stove or an electric kettle

While I also hate ads and tracking, there have always been ads in the paper. Making news is not a free service.

Part of the reason people flock to Fox News is because it’s specifically not paywalled.

Sorry, should we switch to Fox News because there isn’t a pay wall?

Cars are more complicated now, but generally safer and less prone to rust.

It was mainly a dig at Subarus because they are pretty widely known to have had head gasket issues.

Presumably you’d clean your engine bay first and make sure there are no fluid/exhaust leaks

Motor oil? What are you cooking on, an early 2000s Subaru?

Doesn’t the car eventually make it to the consumer and then you are passing the hot potato onto the next guy with Carvana/CarMax?

Muggsy was 5’3”. Coordination can be learned

The issue with large dataset matches is that in the worst case, grep will put parse the file once and sed will again. With awk or sed only, you only parse the file once.
