Yggdrasil In the mid 90s.

I like “butty” being slang for a piece of ass better.

Piece of …? Bread? Cake? Ass?

Best I can tell is it’s a normal `username@hostname current_directory$ sorta prompt with some coloring: • Red for the square brackets • Orange (color 172) for the username • Light blue (color 153) for the hostname • Amber (color 214) for the current working directory

Other than being hard to read from the embedded coloring I’m not sure why this is a war crime.

Yeah I’m gonna check this out at work next week for sure.

I’d prefer either of these than getting stung by Sting.

I love owning a home but fuck it’s expensive. Learn how to do stuff yourself is the best advice I can give you.

I have saved so much money being able to troubleshoot and repair simple things like hvac, electrical, plumbing, woodworking, etc. YouTube is amazing for learning this stuff. A good example: I recently had to replace two hvac condenser fans that would have likely cost me a $1000 a pop to fix. It’s bad enough the motors themselves were $300 a pop. Plumbing is easy if you have the right tools (pex is awesome). Electrical can be pretty easy if you’re willing to learn (I was a computer engineer in college and a system architect by trade so I get the electrical stuff). Learn how to patch holes in drywall. You’d be surprised how much you’ll be doing that. Learn how to replace a faucet. Learn how to replace the inwards of a toilet.

The great thing about a fixer upper is you can afford to make mistakes. Take your time, don’t rush it. Make little improvements all the time. It all adds up.

I had forgotten about this!! I’ll have to start up a VM this morning to check it out.

I remember a podcast I used to listen to a long time ago that argued that MS should just make a fork of the Linux kernel and just make the gui work like Windows. Better security and stability, and huge increase in user base with all the normal Linux users seeing it as viable alternative. I thought it was a brilliant idea. Well except Microsoft would likely have figured a way to kill Linux from the inside.

Thank you. 🙏 I’m glad I’m not the only one.

So… more like a butcher?

Hell most of the Jewish folks I know think Israel is being a dick. Are they also antisemitic?

Sorta. I found this video a while back that helped me understand it. Pay attention to the clock hands part and how the movement is affected by how fast information is traveling in them. It’s basically the same idea as the stick but a different direction.

So price hikes on cards they don’t have….

If I’m typing into the app, is that really collecting keystrokes?

Would you like a roommate?

The amount of data required for that would be immense. From what I’ve been able to find it’s over 200 petabytes.

And then they die when the servers are no longer maintained. Make more standalone games that don’t require servers.

It would take at least two guys to fuck an ostrich. Maybe 3. Unless it was a sick ostrich.
