Now harness that addiction and turn it into a hobby!

To the uninitiated, coffee is a surprisingly deep rabbit hole

I feel like this has been one of my soapbox things for a while now, but

Americans, the Internet Archive and Wikipedia stand as two of the biggest contributions to human knowledge preservation in all of history. To lose either would be a huge backslide for us as a civilization, and it never really seemed like a genuine threat until recent events over there.

I know there’s a lot of other shit going on right now, but you must do what you can to ensure both are able to continue their work.

Samples have to be cleared by the original author to be legally used in a new track

Mid 30s, 3rd party Reddit app migration ~3y ago

Stuck around because it reminded me of a lot of the good parts of Reddit that increasingly seem to be gone from the actual site. Though not that I’d really know because I probably only go to Reddit once every few months now via a search for something, and every time I do, it seems even worse than the last time.

I’m just hoping the growth continues such that the less busy communities start to pick up a bit, we’re getting close to the point where there’s a community to cover most interests I’ve thought looked for, but many of them are ghost towns. But we’re making progress, month on month it does feel like there are more people knocking around

“Aren’t devoid” is understatement of the century

Farage has been on RT almost as much as he’s been on BBC Question Time (where he was notoriously given magnitudes more representation than any other politician due to the right-wing show runner making sure of it)

Hot glue gun

Yep to both

But much more in the former than the latter, life is for living plus many places have a return/refund policy

The severity of each level is different

I think matching wine glasses is relatively uncontroversial, but also understandable if kinda mismatched. A contingent of matching tumblers is also fine but you need the random pint glasses too at the very least. I maintain a fully matching set of mugs is a red flag

I don’t really like watching video on my phone, so I’ll pretty much always go for the nearest bigger screen unless there’s no option to do that.

I honestly think most of the time I would just not watch the video rather than watch on my phone

If you don’t keep an eye on politics, it only keeps an eye on you

I think the Napoleonic “Never interrupt your enemy when they are making a mistake” probably also applies here even though she’s not strictly doing that here

And who else?

(To be clear married women should be able to vote, just like everybody else)

Doesn’t that list just describe america?

Yes even the dog thing, plenty of people with shitty landlords

I more meant now they’re not being made because Micron recently killed the Crucial brand to focus supply towards data center customers

TBF that is a crucial ram stick in the picture, those are rare shinies now

Would it be political if it was dead friends of another nationality? What about dead friends that died in an earlier conflict that’s no longer in progress?

Shit position to take from the IOC

You know what’s really stupid about this

Notepad existed for decades, resisting the general trend of Microsoft software, and it continued to do one thing, and do it well (for the purposes of this argument, let’s not get started on line endings)

If someone wanted to do more than just view text files, there was wordpad, a stripped down word processor, that would have been the perfect application to add support for markdown to.

Except they killed it, because enough people must have realised that the word processor bundled with the OS did everything they needed without having to pay Microsoft a subscription for Word.

So now Microsoft is trying to turn notepad into the rudimentary word processor that people expect to come with their OS, destroying the aspect that made it useful

Reminder that 99% of think tanks are just organisations that pay for studies that help the owner’s ideological goals.

Always look at the owner of the think tank and people involved and decide if it’s just propaganda before you listen to a word of reporting that originates with them

Everyone was seemingly on board with this as a good idea until trump and Farage decided to say it was a bad thing, despite trump being one of the people cheering for it a while ago. Now people who didn’t even know the islands existed 6 months ago, have very strong opinions about it.

Reminder the Times is a Murdoch owned rag these days.
