Protip: Export the registry key into a .reg file, write a script that installs it and put that in autostart. Otherwise every major update will revert your edit.
But if you’re at that point, even Slackware will give you fewer headaches. - Comment on xkcd #3193: Sailing Rigs 4 days ago:

That’s called a sea anchor.
- Comment on xkcd #3193: Sailing Rigs 4 days ago:
I think the only thing that would work is shooting a sea anchor in the direction you want to go from a deck gun, then pulling it back in.

If the people you write about are rich and influential, it doesn’t have to be illegal for them to ruin you in court. - Comment on MFW I wake up to find Lemmy feeds full of USA stuff 6 days ago:

Where’s Baidu? With a >50% market share among China’s >1 billion internet users, it should sit in second place.
Also, the fact that the only European search engine with a measurable market share is Russian frustrates me. - Comment on Why do we have shampoo, conditioner, and body wash soaps? 6 days ago:
I used to use normal shampoo. Gave me horrible dandruff.
Then I tried out various anti-dandruff shampoos, which didn’t make a difference.
Switched to curd soap, which made my hair dry and straw-like.
Switched to Aleppo bar soap, which made it oily.
Then I tried out the last option - nothing. I wash my hair once a week with only warm water, then brush it. And it’s never looked better. Your results may vary. - Comment on MFW I wake up to find Lemmy feeds full of USA stuff 6 days ago:
Actually it’s a quote by a very famous Austrian painter.

- Comment on 3.5" floppy disks were peak tactile feedback in storage: easy to stick in, drives had a button to immediately eject them, big enough to get labels, thin enough that stacks didn't take too much space 1 week ago:
I wish they’d make SSDs in a similar format with plug-and-play functionality.
Stick your disk in and boot from it. Remove after shutdown and take it with you. - Comment on genius 1 week ago:
