99% … They pulled that number put of their ass…

I’m actually surprised that the satanic temple isn’t pushing for him to be charged with some kind of hate crime. Pretty sure if so decapitated a statue of Jesus it wouldn’t just be destruction of property?

Five bucks say some mom got hurt trying to walk in the gravel and threatened to sue.

That sounds cool… Wish the article said what it does.

5, 3, 6 are all decent.

I cannot tell you how many towels the average person uses, or what the distribution is. Though it’s probably less than 4. What I can say is that it doesn’t hurt anybody, so if it feels good for you, just do it. That’s the nice thing about being an adult, you can do what you want.

I would note though that it’s probably much more important how often you change and wash your towels than how many you use.

If only we could do something about this problem which got inexplicably worse when we worsened regulations and working conditions…

That photo looks like the food looks better in person… ;)

Cable box, but roll your cables and tape them together before you chuk them in. Has saved the day, particularly before major trips.

Buy one that has enough space to open it up and put an apple airtag in there?

Lenovo/Thinkpad will certify certain models for use with Linux, other brands sell Linux laptops. Those are obviously good indicators that those models should be safe to choose. More generally, the more popular a model is, and the longer it’s been on the market the more likely they are to be compatible, just because they are in people’s hands and people tinker with them and add stuff to the Linux Kernel. So stay away from the latest model that is uncertified, and don’t choose the flashy, overpriced model that will see poor sales.

You might be able to find a discounted ThinkPad X12 detachable with an i5. It does not officially support Linux, but most features work, except for the volume rocker. It’s become my daily driver – really won me over. The keyboard is great btw.

I have very vague recollection of it being relevant…

I thought the scripture was quite clear with that whole “Thou shalt not kill” part…

Stable as in rarely crashes, or stable as in rarely changes over the years?

The LTS versions of Ubuntu are stable in the second sense, they get ten years of support but you’re stuck with old versions or (stable) programs in exchange. I also have not seen any of them experience a fatal crash, too. So stability isn’t the issue, its more about what you want to do and compatible with most recent versions of software.

If you only find that mildly infuriating, them you’re a more mild manner person than I am.

Similar experience sometimes with snaps. Some snaps take way too long to open. I have taken to just manually installing .Deb files for applications, but I will just ship and switch to Debian next.

That’s an American idea that there are different races. The term is obsolete in a biological sense. There are different connections of color, but that’s not sufficient to constitute different races.

I remember the first mission of hotline Miami. You take the phone call and learn that you are supposed to kill some people. You learn how to use your guns. You kill a bunch of baddies, quite badass. Then at the end of the mission, the screen starts swaying more than usually, and the protagonist vomits in an alley. Of course, he just killed for the first time, overwhelming. Makes him quite human, more than many other protagonists, despite the pixel art style.

Start with something generic. Maybe not Ubuntu because of their recent hijinks. But something like Debian or Linux Mint. Just because it makes troubleshooting so much easier when because you can Google problems more easily.
