  My town and a lot of nearby towns have regular plant sales this time of year. Check for community gardening clubs. Unfortunately the only medium for planning/announcing these, that I’ve seen, is Facebook…so…yeah…

  Wait…do people think Jesus was only like 4’6" tall?

  Like…that’s your lord and savior? Barely taller than an average American 9 year old child?

  Four legs good. Two legs precious.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Self Hosted Network Analyzer?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Netbox is a documentation tool. You can plug in Napalm to do some stuff but it mostly exists to catalog the intended state of the network.

  It’s a wonderfully powerful tool, and Stretch has done a great job with it…but it’s not an analysis tool, it’s documentation.

  That’s a very eurocentric view. Most of the world outside of Europe and imperial Asia was communist tribes until Europe went and colonized everything.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨VMware perpetual license holders receive cease-and-desist letters from Broadcom⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah…I rank Canonical roughly where Google was like 20 years ago. They’re still mostly good…but that’s highly likely to change.

  Man could you imagine what proxmox would be if that project got just a tenth of the money VMware got?

  Classic prisoners dilemma. Nobody wants to invest in proxmox because not enough people invest in proxmox.

  Clever God.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A person born in 2015 is 20 years old⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Truly ahead of his time.

  Elevators are loading screens.

  Bathrooms are for core dumps.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tiramisuitcase⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  America’s favorite dessert.

  (There was a celebrity episode of Family Feud with Honey Boo-Boo versus Cake Boss. Cake Boss family got to the final round and one of the questions was “America’s favorite dessert”. Somebody from his family said Tiramisu, and someone said Cannoli. Neither were even on the board. I don’t really like Family Feud (or at least Steve Harvey), cake boss, or honey booboo…but that episode was hysterical).

  Did you describe Saddam Hussein?

  Although his father died before he was born, his mother tried to abort him and kill herself but failed, she didn’t want him and he was raised by his uncle.

  La Vie Bohème!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK: Regulations don't exist because governments like them...⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Ditto.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK: Regulations don't exist because governments like them...⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Because people are dumb. Chalk is in milk, now, right on the label…even marketed as a feature.

  But if you tell that to any random schmuck they either won’t believe you or they’ll be disgusted. And then probably keep drinking it anyway.

  And that’s with the information right there on the label.

  I’m not trying to downplay the example, but there were far worse atrocities fixed by regulations.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK: Regulations don't exist because governments like them...⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Exactly. There are better examples. Chalk is a bad one because it is, technically, edible, and still being used as an additive to this day.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK: Regulations don't exist because governments like them...⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah. I get that…but the way it was phrased by OOP it was as of “chalk” was used by an example as if that makes it somehow worse. We still put “chalk” in milk, though.

  It’s like those people who say “eww” to hot because there’s a regulation limiting how many bug parts are allowed in them…not even considering the alternative of “no limit on how many bug parts”.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK: Regulations don't exist because governments like them...⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Surely you could’ve come up with a better example.

  Chalk is just calcium carbonate. Modern medicine uses calcium carbonate to as a calcium supplement.

  We are still adding things to milk. Any milk that’s “calcium fortified” or “extra calcium”, and a lot of nut-milks, have calcium carbonate as an ingredient to this day.

  I mean, I get your point…honestly, I do…but it’s coming across nearly as the same sort of anti-science drivel you’d expect from the counterargument.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨To whom it may concern⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This must’ve been a long time ago. Otherwise where would you find a phone book, let alone a thick one.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Trump, in blue, sleeping at Pope Francis' funeral⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Listen once you’ve gotten to his age, you’ve been to a lot of funerals. They’re all the same, nothing exciting happens, and the guest-of-honor definitely could not care less.

  Back in my day, in my middle school, we just assumed all boy band singers were gay by default.

  “So dance fucker dance” is You’re gonna go far, kid.

  “Jay committed suicide (Brandon OD’d and died)” is The kids aren’t alright.

  Both Offspring, tho.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Need a tiebreaker⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Really gotta wonder how America hasn’t invented a corn-based, low-cost, durable polymer that breaks down in typical landfills.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Need a tiebreaker⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I never thought I’d put these words together…but Walmart is the classier choice.

  T-Shirt, black, with white text “I see a little silhouette-o of a man, on my shirt, on my shirt, and he’s holding a mango”, and a picture matching this description above.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨CVE Board members launch the CVE Foundation, a dedicated, non-profit to continue identifying vulnerabilities, after the US ended its contract with Mitre⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Idk about Tenable specifically, but a lot of the major security vendors have their own pool of security researchers who very frequently contribute to CVE. Mostly from finding vulns in their own product, but a lot of those vulns are due to upstream libraries.
