Advocate for freedom and tolerance even if you say things I do not like

Adversary of Fediblock

Accept that I'll probably say something you don't like and I'll give you the same benefit, and maybe we can find some truth about the world.

Ah... Is the Alliteration clever or stupid? Don't answer that, I sort of know the answer already...

I don't like war...

But if I were Putin I'd keep the war going until q2 2023 to remind Europe you can't eat money or heat your home with money.

Sort of glows to me.

I doubt there's even anything out there anymore, but I think my first linux was called something like minilinux, I think this is it: https://mvalente.eu/1995/03/13/mini-linux-is-official-and-yes-there-will-be-a-new-version-someday/

I didn't get a full cd version of linux until much later, and on dial-up you weren't gonna download a CD of anything.

When people talk about how linux's ux sucks, they don't know how far it's come.

The host is annoying, but this is a really interesting video about massive viruses that are as large as other microbes.

INTEREST IS NOW ONE HUNDRED AND THEE PERCENT PER YEAR

Not in eu, but last November for the first time ever I grabbed a generator and a bunch of fuel and some heaters just in case we ever need to keep the house warm in winter and all other options are out of reach. It was looking scary then, long before Ukraine looked like a problem.

Fedi is the most strange thing in the world.

On normal social media, you write a message and people just ignore it forever.

Here, you write a message, it stays ignored for 1 or 2 years, and then all of a sudden, for no reason, with no explanation, someone finds it somehow, boosts it, and it gets 200 likes and 120 boosts.

What the fuck.

I'm sure someone will boost this message in 2021 or 2022.

No wonder the state is imploding.

Really cool #nextcloud feature I just discovered. If you have geotagged photos uploaded to your nextcloud and then add the maps addon (which uses #openstreetmap), your photos will be shown on the map by where they were taken.

Really cool, and as far as I know unique as well.

I've got a post lined up for the moment a major economy hits recession, because I called stagflation about 2 years ago back when I'm sure we'll hear nobody could have predicted it.

The post includes a certain razorfist video. ๐Ÿ˜‰

is a eu recession official yet?

Back in the peak of piracy, there was a confluence of three factors:

1. You couldn't get it any legitimate way. You could buy what was in the store, and no, they didn't have that. Not at any price.
2. There wasn't any perception of consequences. They didn't start suing people until quite late in the game.
3. It was a lot easier to find stuff back then because there was much less fuckery to avoid the riaa and mpaa.

My car is 7 years old. It has a 50 litre gas tank. Next year, it'll have a 50 litre gas tank. 5 years from now, it'll have a 50 litre gas tank. 10 years from now, it'll have a 50 litre gas tank.

When your electric car is 17 years old, how many amp-hours will it hold?

Look, I never represent myself as anything but mildly retarded. :P

Don't judge a book by its cover... But eventually you've read enough of the book, it's ok to judge the book by its contents.

I was waiting for a punchline, but it just turned out to be a really nice piece of news.

My grandmother had scarlet fever as a child, it damaged her optic nerve so she was blind. We were very close, she lived in the basement apartment of our house for a long time so we spent a lot of time together. I always wished I could show here the world of computers I found so interesting, but at that time there was just no way.

Except whenever he asks a question they need to get a translator out.

I don't use quote reposts often, but when I didn't have them they were notable by their absence. Sometimes you just want to send a meme to someone.

Good point. It's just a graphic, there's no way to know for sure if it's true or not.

My cynicism is always going to lead me to assume the worst, especially when it comes to mega corps making billions of dollars forcing something dangerous down our throats. That doesn't necessarily mean that my cynicism is warranted.
