Uhh wait, but Vader is younger than Padme!

Organized religion.

Nothing comes even remotely close.

Sorry to hear that man. But if your family excludes you because you don't have an iPhone/iMessage, maybe you need a new family, not a new phone.

Well, to be honest the ruble has been sucking for a while:

However, it now sucks more.

I have wireguard for other purposes but I also have ssh open on a different port. I don't much understand the argument of exchanging ssh for wireguard. In the end, we're just trading an attack vector for another.

My ssh only allows connections from my user. If I'm using password auth, I also request a 2FA.

Tail scale is also a good idea but I don't like having my control plane under someone else's control.

I'd recommend a new launcher. Lawnchair is totally free. I personally use Nova Launcher (paid). Both give you the option to have the buttons back.

Holy shit, came here to say that. Nothing compares to the pain of having a tube inserted in your urethra all the way down to the bladder, and as the tube is turned (it's a camera) it hits the sides of the bladder and it starts to bleed, and it burns like nothing I've felt before.

Go

It's like C with better syntax and without memory management annoyances. It also comes with a decent standard library and making concurrent programs is a breeze. As a bonus it generates static binaries which, granted, are big but in most cases can be copied to any other Linux workstation and executed directly.

Unfortunately, I only had limited interactions with him. I was the lead on a project that needed a few things from his team, and we had a number of meetings due to that.

From my limited contact, he seemed like a chill guy. Never made any unreasonable assumptions and had a technical view on how to solve problems.

Pink does not exist either.

I'm not a Biden superfan either but I think people need to be aware of the reality. I have kids that don't feel like voting because "Biden does not excite them". While he doesn't excite me either, it's important to understand that not voting for Biden is essentially a step in the direction of the "other guy", which happens to me MUCH MUCH WORSE than Biden.

It's naive to think that you can go from a to z without going through b, c, d, etc... We don't vote for the ideal candidate, we vote for one that at least seems to be pointing in the right direction and has a chance to win.

Also remember that this whole "both sides are the same shit, so why vote" idea was spread around exactly to discourage people from voting. It's key to be mindful of that.

Man, I'm sad 😔.

I knew him personally (we worked for the same company at a point in time, although very different departments). I'm also a heavy vim user.

We once were in the same meeting where the unsuspecting meeting chair was taking nodes in emacs org-mode. Most of other meeting members were not geeks, so nobody knew who Bram was. I said "Bram, look at this, they're taking notes in emacs just to piss you off", to which he responded "yeah, and it is horrible...." 😁

Farewell and :wq

 

It seems that I'm seeing the same posts over and over again and I can't find where to hide them automatically. Is that even possible?
