My Internet has Pihole and uBlock. I don’t know what these ad things are.

I used to live there a long time ago. It wasn’t terribly stable then. It’s sad that it’s only gotten worse. It’s a beautiful place, with some of the kindest people I’ve ever known. I hope they find a way out of this.
Governor Caillou sucks.
I’m not so sure about that. It took me forever yesterday to get my international keyboard setup to work on Ubuntu the way I wanted it to. I’m saying that as someone who’s been using Unix/Linux in a school, IT and home setting for 30 years. It was unforgivably difficult.
Sociologists call it anomie.
I think you might have it backwards. An empathy deficit (sociopathy) is highly correlated with the C-suite. It’s not that sociopathy makes a person a better leader. It doesn’t. It’s more that a person with dark triad traits isn’t going to care who they step on or what lines they cross to get there.
In other words, they were already screwed up.
There’s nothing objective about that opinion at all. I think Mariah Carey’s song is cynical corporate kitsch written for one reason and one reason only: to make money. That’s why I hate it.
I can tolerate some of the secular big band/swing songs, and there have been a few decent ones since then. Fiona Apple does a brilliant cover of Frosty the Snowman. Vince Guaraldi’s work for the Charlie Brown Christmas show is still wonderful.
I’m not sure I realized that. Are you getting that info just from the app store, or are you detecting it somewhere else?
Podcast Addict has worked for years for me, and he’s constantly improving it. Why the fuck would I ever want a paid service to manage and profit on the podcasts I’ve always listened to for free?
Ditto on the Arduino. I built a pickup winder for electric guitar, and it’s more than made up for its price in entertainment alone.
The graphic novel Paper Girls features a giant living tardigrade, if you want a preview.
Both of the tools I tried from there failed hard and fast. The first was a rotary tool. I ended up keeping the plastic and using a motor from a printer instead until I bought my Foredom.
The second was a vibratory tumbler. After running it for a few hours, I walked into my garage to find it filled with smoke and the acrid smell of burning electrical equipment.
I took it back to the store for a refund and the manager threatened me, saying that he wouldn’t let me make any more returns after bringing back an obviously defective piece of garbage.
Glad you had a better experience, but that place is definitely not for me.
Hmm. Kinda rhymes with “garbage crate”. Horrible store. I’m never going back.
A hair dryer? Right. First you’d have to convince me he’s ever seen a brush or a comb.
I’ve used, administered and coded on Linux for a very long time. So yup
Obscure keyboard shortcuts.
I was just [insert action here].
There have been plenty of studies on psilocybin with human subjects. None of them included vivisection or bisection. We have other ways of testing this sort of thing.
Nope. Not even once, and that’s just fine.
