Well good to hear the Polish are stable.

Can someone hack this “bloc” and release all their private chats? Like, work and personal, conversations about their giant hemorrhoids and all.

I’m on the email list, myself, lol. Also just picked up a copy of Zippy #3, sitting about 5ft to my left just waiting to be read.

And someone else clarified “burning” as in sensation, not fire, that makes more sense! Still wondering how that managed to break skin but the burning I understand now lol.

Ooooohhhhhh ok I thought you/they meant like singed lol, that makes more sense!

Were the stix still wrapped or did you dump the powder, and where did the burning come from in an air rifle?

Character limits are a bitch to be fair. What’s wild to me though that you seem to think abbreviations were invented alongside texting by today’s youth, not y’know ancient Greece using IMP for Imperator on their coins and shit.

Sure, they got more popular in the late 1800s in English, but I don’t think you’re that old to be calling 145yo people “kids” lol.

Yes lmao, where you been? People want to be offended now to the degree where they look for things that aren’t really offensive but they can use it for sympathy likes.

Maybe I just have tuned my ability to notice it from years of “nothing is ever good enough” parents, teachers, and employers, but it’s literally the same mechanism that made my mom say “well a B is good but you need to be getting As. (And later) Well that low A is good but you need to get it higher.” Or my boss just always saying “faster faster” no matter how much “faster faster” you go, so I now just say “you got it boss” and continue at my pace instead of breaking my back just to hear “faster faster” again in response like he’s some kind of weird Gull that gained the ability to mimic human speech it can’t comprehend. It all comes from the same place, plus a dash of clickbait.

Go for a popular/“beginner” distro (basically mint or fedora or fedoraKDE, or Bazzite for gaming) so you can search up anything you need, and before you install anything test it all out with the live boot disk you created; keep backups and don’t be afraid to fuck up, at worst you reinstall and you can script much of the set up process; and do not be afraid of the terminal, learn its secrets, watch a “bash beginner” and “linux terminal beginner” video or a few on youtube and follow along like it’s a class, you’ll be fine.

That’s it, you’ll have specific questions later, but for now that’s all you need.

Tempted to put this through let me google that for you just to be smug, but here’s the direct link instead since I’m sure I’d also need to click the results for you. Do I need to read this to you too?

Not even my claim, yet I googled it for you. Guess the burden is on a third party who happened to know this common knowledge already.

And for linux step 3 usually doesn’t works because your local techy is probably someone who just knows how to google and paste into cmd the terminal.

This was sorta my fault, but I’m counting it. I have been flashing meshtastic devices recently and flashed two just fine from fedora (just had to DL ungoogled chromium because fuck chrome but librewolf can’t access serial ports so…), tried to flash a third from my friend’s windows PC and it just would not recognize it in the serial monitor, tried for like an hour being dumb, then I remembered drivers exist, downloaded one set of drivers, couldn’t install lord knows why, downloaded a second set that finally worked on a reboot and got it flashed.

I understand that sometimes you still have to install drivers on Linux too, but can we stop pretending you don’t have to on windows? What’s more while I was in there and edge wasn’t using my serial port my friend said to install a chrome based anyway to try, and I had to find the damn download pages instead of using a package manager, philistines.

Well “just some questions” isn’t particularly accurate either, that form gets submitted to the FBI, who runs an instant background check on you and makes sure you’re not a prohibited purchaser (felon, dishonorably discharged, IVC, too young), so it also weeds out those people.

What, were they surveiling you until they find out you’re gay and then “no looksies?” They’re surveiling all of us (and I for one am goddamn sick of it. Surveil that assholes!)

mechanically wiping data

You mean thermite the drives while the employees are gone for a holiday/lunch?

Rufus.

And who cares if there’s spyware on windows, you’re already using windows so there is, it’s windows. At that point you may as well just use etcher, but I’d use Rufus anyway because let’s be real it’s just better. The only reason not to use Rufus is because it’s windows exclusive, but if you’re using windows that probably doesn’t bother you, so…

Your dad was Don Schlitz? Or was he Kenny Rogers?

My account got deleted for inactivity like forever ago. I don’t post pics and there wasn’t much there at the time, I wish they’d have left it but I understand.

Anyway, what’s a good instance to make a new account? Mostly gonna lurk, don’t post pics much (or really at all), as I said.

Except AUS, kinda.
