nah, it’s more fun this way.

this is how I eat something live and fermented, and I’m all “…meh.”

…then next day i see it and experience the closest non-sexual feeling to lust that I’ve ever had, and have to put more in my mouth.

The alignment of the language and the alignment of the coder must be similar on at least one metric, or the coder suffers a penalty to develop for each degree of difference from the language’s alignment. This is penalty stacks for each phase of the project.

So, let’s say that the developer is a lawful good Rust zealot Paladin, but she’s developing in Python, a language she’s moderately familiar with. Since Python is neutral/good, she suffers a -1 penalty for the first phase, -2 for the second, -3 for the third, etc. This is because Rust (the Paladin’s native language) is lawful, and Python is neutral (one degree of difference from lawful), so she operates at a slight disadvantage. However, they are both “good”, so there’s no further penalty.

The same penalty would occur if using C, which is lawful neutral - but the axis of order and chaos matches, and there is one degree of difference on the axis of good and evil.

However, if that same developer were to code in Javascript (chaotic neutral), it would be at a -3 (-6, -9…) disadvantage, due to 2 and 1 degree of difference in alignment, respectively.

Malbolge (chaotic evil), however, would be a -4 (-8, -12) plus an inherent -2 for poor toolchain availability.

…hope this helps. have fun out there!

yes. and you can just use any distro that has gparted, like >!Ubuntu!< or similar.

I love the two lonely downvotes on this.

Automatically increases decreases/escalates defcon once every 24h in which no texts are exchanged, unless you hit “snooze”.

don’t tempt me.

…those days after over.DAMNIT!

I read and agree with the other comment here, but it’s mainly a kind of nonverbal communication. I linked our computers and gave my gf the ability to change my background whenever she wanted, wherever she was, and vice versa. it’s just a way of being close and all up in each other’s business when we can’t get all up in each other’s business.

wait, you’re not? :-/

Honesty at it’s best. Enjoy.

Sure. Illegalization of marijuana was a racially charged issue, and the Chinese exclusion act… …well, is pretty obvious.

are you just nit picking now, or…?

this is a pretty typical actual centrist tendency. Most of the centrists I know have been voting blue (and loathing it). A decent number have, though, given up on that in favor of shtf.

The problem has been “vote mostly blue and hope they don’t alienate anyone too badly, because the right will take advantage of the alienated… oh, shit, they did it again.”

like, if some ethnic or other group of people thought they were better than others, and wanted to rig government policy to adversely affect other ethnic or other groups, and tell them what they can and can’t do with their own bodies?

but… maybe I’m being unrealistic, and that would never happen.

…or maybe… …just maybe… you’re caught in a viscous loop of which you are a primary contributing party - where you are hurt by the world, so you lash out at people who aren’t a part of the problem, and see enemies everywhere - thereby relegating yourself to an unmanageable situation that is only partially (but still significantly) of your own making.

maybe… …just maybe… you have to take responsibility for your own situation, even though it’s not your fault, but just you being caught up in the larger evolutionary sweep of life.

Are other people also a part of the problem? sure. But you can’t address it if you’re off-balance.

meh

I support equal rights all around. That means people can do whatever the fuck they want tp do with their own bodies and their own lives, and it doesn’t matter one whit to me what a person’s gender, sex, religion, or whatnot is. Trans people and women should have the same rights as any other fucking human. Not more, and not less.

The person’s actions and attitude towards the world are their biggest impact, and the metric by which I judge which associations to keep in my life. … not their gender or any other category. Demanding extra rights because you’re male, female, white, black, cis, trans, gay, straight, etc will fall on deaf ears for me. Asking to be heard because you’re hurt won’t.

But if you use your pain as an excuse to assume the worst about others, while trying to come off as being a good person, I’ll continue to say this:

Grow. Or repeat. It’s the law.

Huh. Yeah. I just probably did what was necessary and didn’t think about it too much, but that’s just because I’ve been using Linux for ages.

looks like the easiest way is if you have them on two separate drives. I don’t, they share an efi partition… … but, Windows has also overwritten things on there before, and I had to rescue the Linux side. Not most peoples’ cup of tea.

boycotting can be effective. But protesting, when not an issue of actually taking action, is largely ineffectual when appealing to a public that already knows and doesn’t generally know what to do, and a government that simply doesn’t care, and has it’s own myriad issues without caring about what the protestors are saying.

The civil rights movement was largely appealing to a moral, uninformed public - not a public that had been inundated with every micro-issue that anyone can come up with, and manipulated to be completely blind to what’s in front of their faces, while both parties lie or get away with grevious wrongs.

You really didn’t bother to find out how much we agree on. If this were war, you would be shooting allies and neutral parties. Aside from that, you put a hell of a lot arguments in my mouth that didn’t come from me, and i’m not really going to bother with them. It’s classical zealotry and bigotry, and you are incapable of seeing it, because you are being it.

It doesn’t matter that you’re technically right about some of what you say. I can come to those conclusions on my own, and act on them, without virtue signaling to you. But the world you would create, if people bought into your way of thinking, is an absolute wreck, because what you have inside is an absolute wreck.

And you want tp play at not knowing what growth is? It doesn’t matter what centrist views are - your growth is your own. You either reach for it, and grow, or pretend you can’t.

gtfo, yourself.

I didn’t remember doing that, but I’ve been using Linux for ages and might have shrugged that off and forgotten.

dunno
