“Robinson”!?!

I’m sorry but you’re going to have to hand in your passport.

The fuel tank seats are genuimely the most relaxing.

…That may just be the benzene.

It is a pretty cool name, honestly

Yeah my name is Link man,
I’m more well known than Lil’ Wayne

What’s that? You thought my name was Zelda?
That’s a fucking girl’s name!

I’ve saved the world like fifteen times,
And saved the princess from demise
And I do it all alone with no help and no advice!

(Hey, look, listen!
Hey, look, listen, you _ annoying fairy!
I’d rather be forced to listen to constant Katy Perry.)

I’m called the Bushwhacker
And my bank account’s maxed.

Got 999 rupees,
But I’m forced to pay out the ass for these bombs in Castle Town.

So I can kick that dumbass Ganon
All the way to Argentina!

L to the I to the N to the K, and he ain’t gonna stop 'till the world is free of evil.

Legend of Zelda? Fuck that! Legend of Link!

Credit (and blame) to Smosh. By the way, while we’re at it, can someone lend me their tomahawk, or maybe some meat in my mouth? Also, who’s Evil Kneivel?

I meant that it should be possible to appreciate harmlessly stupid or silly/vapid humour without it degrading your ability to also reason critically about serious stuff.

Idk man. I don’t use TikTok and probably never will, but I don’t think it’s unreasonable to expect people to be able to segregate their entertainment from their intellect.

Why would they want you to have a working program? How does that help sell you more stuff?

Welcome to Cascadia, land of trees, salmon, and hydroelectric dams.

Sympathize with their plight if you find doing so worthwhile, but also recognize their response isn’t helping.

Maybe they’re just a fan of death?

…Or maybe they mean threatening death itself— As in, like “Stop killing my friends, Death, that’s really not cool, and I’m going to start stealing your Death-beers from your Death-fridge if you don’t stop”.

…There’s probably an ecological definition for “community” that you could try to transfer over… I think in cases where a large group of individuals don’t actually interact with all of each other either directly or indirectly, but are nonetheless relevant as a grouping because they share a particularly contextually prominent set of traits (E.G. “Plays Video Games”), then “population” might be a more appropriate term (if a bit sterile).

Aligning power over systems with stackholders impacted by those systems is usually good for avoiding hostile incentives which result in hurting people, yes. Plus to some it might axiomatically be morally good.

That just redirects to thread 16j21jg. They’re generating opaque unique IDs so they can track permalinks now?

It turned out to be nine pendants, three rings and 10 gold pearls in what was described as the country’s gold find of the century.

Huh. I knew gold is one of the few metals that you can find in pure elemental form in the Earth’s crust, but I had no idea it was already forged into pendants and jewelry and stuff! Geology really is fascinating.

Nissan also said it collected information on “sexual activity.” It didn’t explain how.

Nissan doesn’t provide a detailed explanation of how the data is collected, but they say that the source they collect the data is “Direct contact with users and Nissan employees,” Whatever that means.

Based on this information, I can only infer that the Nissan sales handbook has a section on using seduction for particularly difficult and/or hot potential customers.

…I used to work at a pizza shop. Oh, so that’s why we got so many orders from the local Nissan dealership!

It’s for their upcoming line of Combine harvesters.

TAPR or CERN OHL, probably— Kit cars do already exist, though are apparently aimed at hobbyists, and usually just partial cosmetic customizations. “Metal box on wheels with motor” ain’t exactly rocket science, although quality could be challenging and that’s especially important when it comes to safety.

That said, surely the production costs of modern vehicles needed to do their basic job— Efficient-ish and safe-ish transportation from point A to point B­— Can’t possibly be worth their increasingly inflated costs? There’s probably something to be said about the marketability of a sub-$10,000 basic OHL car that you can choose to scratch build or kit-build or buy fully built.

Well, nuts.

Nix is a good tool, but don’t think I’d personally want to give up the Linux FHS for it. Manjaro’s management does indeed have a somewhat concerning track record.
