"I cast heap sort on the owlbear."

"..."

"The owlbear is sorted into neat piles, the first containing hair/nails/claws/beaks, the second feathers, the third bone, the fourth meat, the fifth blood.."

Tbh I kinda want one of the Rancheros (or an El Camino, but). They're just slick as fuck lmao.

Jesse's Girl. My high school used it daily in an ad for some bullshit they wanted to sell, and my first 10 working years they had a radio on wherever I worked on one of three stations depending, all of which play that song at least (at least) once a day every day. (That's at least daily and sometimes twice a day exposure to that garbage song for 14 years straight for anyone counting.)

If I hear it come on I will leave the room, and I'll be back in 3:14. Idgaf where I am. If I have the aux (it won't be played, but if it somehow does) I'm changing it. If I hit the lotto I'm buying the rights so nobody can play it on the radio and taking it off streaming so I can lessen the likelihood of exposure. I'll put it for free on itunes or some shit and never strike pirates but for the love of god please don't play it near me!

And put grapheneOS on it.

Btw I've never been charged to look at a phone and I have two pixels, assuming their claim is accurate either the other poster was being scammed or they were buying it online and the online store wanted a deposit to prevent theft or cover damages before shipping it so they could "see it" (which isn't something I've ever heard of but I suppose it is possible.) Either way I doubt it has much to do with the pixel itself, but I could be wrong I suppose, it has happened before.

I'm leaning real too, the one where the guy destroyed his truck bed by ratchet strapping whatever that is to his wheel well is literally in the HD parking lot and that's exactly what would happen if someone was stupid enough to try it. But the first one with the "Mazda" logo in the background, that one looks fake as hell, so I'm torn lol.

Well, I prefer local, but out of the given options Domino's. I used to work at Pizza Hut, the dough comes in prefrozen disks in a box. I also used to smoke a lot of weed in a Domino's when my friend was managing (I'd get off delivering at my local and roll over and "help close their store" lol) and they ran shit so much better.

Honestly, I must respectfully disagree. Personally, I still respect someone even if I want to have sex with them (or enjoy seeing them topless, as it were), in fact if we started getting to know eachother and found out I did not respect them, I would no longer find them attractive.

I further disagree in that I think simply looking at someone and being attracted isn't (or at least isn't necessarily,) objectification. I think there has to be a whole lot more at play than just "oh this girl looked at my abs while my shirt was off in public, she's objectifying me." Even if she said "oh look at that guy's abs" to a friend, I don't think it's crossed a line. Attraction isn't necessarily a problem, what's a problem is not taking no for an answer. Even if the first thought is sexual, so? Sex is natural, attraction is natural, it is what it is, just don't harass people.

Well at least that's good tbf.

Even if it's not compatible, "ok then where's my damn refund?"

Basically theft, really.

On the other hand, I didn't realize that EAC would prevent Linux users from playing entirely.

For the most part any game that "won't run on linux" totally would if it wasn't for the anticheat not working (or being supported) on linux, that's usually the downfall. For instance Destiny runs fine, but if they see you're using linux they ban your acct because fuck you that's why. Tbf, even if the anticheat would work it's usually kernel level spyware that linux users mostly refuse to run, so eh.

 

Hey I figured I'd make a post and see the state of current lemmy appage, since I'm looking for a good one. So far I've used Jerboa, Thunder, Eternity, and Voyager.

Eternity seems to be a dead project, it's full of bugs and hasn't recieved an update since The Exodus

Thunder seems ok and is what I'm using right now, but I can't seem to send direct messages, and can't "Don't blur NSFW preview on NSFW comms" which sucks. The messaging is the dealbreaker for me.

Voyager I used momentarily but the UI was not my favorite.

Jerboa seems OK if unpolished (which is ok to me) but I don't trust the rabid idealogue that makes it and using another instance of his site is one thing, but installing an app is another. Has it been audited to confirm lack of spyware?

Ideally through this I can find one with instance blocking, DMs, and a decent UI. What're your experiences with the current state of lemmy apps?

Or what has been your go to lately? I'm usually a whiskey and ginger kinda guy but I'm trying to branch out a little these days. What're you drinking?

Currently sipping on a Paloma:

  • 1.5 oz Tequila (blanco)
  • .5oz lime juice
  • 4 oz Grapefruit soda (Jarritos today)
  • Pinch of salt
 

I'm running out of mullvad in 23hr, and I'm excited to have port forwarding back! Hit a small snag though: I have the acct and have Eddie running on my phone as I type this, however when it comes to my Fedora install I'm paralyzed by choice.

Should I install:

  1. Eddie GUI,

  2. Eddie CLI,

  3. both those,

  4. or "Suite - based on our own AirVPN OpenVPN 3 library?"

I'm pretty comfortable with CLI especially if there's docs (actually prefer it typically), so that isn't really my concern. I'd like wireguard though which I'm not sure if "suite" yet supports, and port forwarding is the most important (slsk) so that would sway my decision as well (if it's only working on Eddie gui or something, for instance.)

My other main concern is I want the ability to auto connect to the VPN during the bootstrap, which "Suite" says it can do with bluetit, but idk if eddie CLI or GUI can do it. Would it be worth it to ditch wireguard until Suite supports it in favor of the bootstrap connection?

Any info at all that y'all have on these clients would be much appreciated, thank you.

 

I need to upgrade my laptop and one of the things I'm looking for is repairability/upgradability. I've been told thinkpads are good in this respect, how true is that? In terms of replacing batteries and memory, at least. I'm also looking at the frameworks, but those black friday deals are looking alright at lenovo.

With that in mind, any particular series of thinkpad (L, S, whatever) I should look for? I'm hardline against nvidia but is there a reason to pick AMD over Intel (or vice versa)? They both are privacy nightmares, right? And there is no "good alternative?"

 

Personally I used to use Pidgin, but since I moved my XMPP to Gajim because of OMEMO I have no need to stay tied to it necessarily. So I'm looking to expand my horizons, and I figured here's as good a place as any to start a discussion about Linux IRC clients.

What do y'all use? Terminal, GUI, both?
