So which Linux distribution is the most pro-Israel? I think that I need a little more convincing.
(Obligatory and huge /S)
(Also probably Oracle Linux because of course)

I chuckled at the Eel with the “TUMOR” line but I have a dark sense of humor. A couple others made me smile.

When my Mom was in hospice, they strung balloons and a banner on her birthday. She passed two days later. I was cathartic, but I sung happy birthday to her. Sometimes the absurdity can be a comfort when you’re vulnerable.

I mean killer robots from the future could solve many problems. I can elaborate, but you’re going to have to think 4th dimensionally.

Walmart online is pretty good for most things. Not everything. But if I can get it on Walmart I do… Walmart plus is pretty good. It currently comes with Paramount Plus, which doesn’t show ads with my pi-hole (so far, Roku), and compared with Amazon Prime showing ads…
Anyway fuck Amazon.
- Comment on Why is UI design backsliding? 1 month ago:
This is why I believe that they are still chasing Metro UI and reinventing every app out of control panel .
Windows phone was ahead of it’s time.
But now my computer is becoming a phone.
Maybe that’s the point?
I mostly use my phone now anyway…
But it’s Samsung…

We have hundreds of years of out of copyright books and newspapers. I look forward to interacting with old-timey AI.
“Fiddle sticks! These mechanical horses will never catch on! They’re far too loud and barely more faster than a man can run!”
“A Woman’s place is raising children and tending to the house! If they get the vote, what will they demand next!? To earn a Man’s wage!?”
That last one is still relevant to today’s discourse somehow!?

This might not be the answer, but it is important. This is one of the last videos Beau did before he retired and his wife is taking over. It is still one of my favorite channels, but keep this in mind especially for the next several months, and beyond if things don’t go our way.

This. So many of our problems would be solved by saying that we love our sons and that we’re proud of them.
Two things that I never heard from my Dad.
And he never heard them from his.
I don’t fucking care. You find your son right now, look him in the eyes, tell him that you love him, and that you are proud of him.

- Comment on Microsoft finally officially confirms it's killing Windows Control Panel sometime soon 2 months ago:
The en-metro-ification continues.
I mean, sticking with a paradigm that existed at least since windows 3.11 (my first version of windows) isn’t exactly ideal, entire software stacks are built around it existing.
It’s really too bad that Microsoft abandoned Windows Phone, because that is where this UI makes sense. But shoehorning the mistake of windows 8 into everything seems like doubling down on failure.
It would be nice if a competitor entered the space where usability

A vice president taking over for a president fits this pretty well as thier power comes from the former guy by definition. It’s also supposed to be 42 months, or 3.5 years.
You need the mark for commerce. People without it can’t participate in commerce.
Peter Thiel, JD Vance’s big Techno Fascist backer has a large stake in crypto. There’s an open secret that they want to devalue the dollar to spur crypto adoption. Vance has already said this ‘to spur investment in the US’.
Trump, RFK, and others have been openly calling for the US Treasury Department to start buying cryptocurrency.
The problem with cryptocurrency is that it is worthless. It only has value if you think that it has value. That’s basically how US Money works, but I digress. Tech Evangilists, Crypto Bros, Techno Fascists, they can’t turn their “investment” into fungible currency unless they have a buyer. Here comes the US to “bail out crypto”.
They then convert their profits into other stable goods and signal for devaluation of the dollar. People are “encouraged” to adopt cryptocurrency because suddenly it seems to be more “stable”
As it’s fully digital, you don’t need to cary cash around anymore, not that anyone would accept it because it’s worthless. What’s a good way to process funds from a digital wallet in the real world? Why not a tattoo or RFID tag under the skin of your hand or behind your ear?
