“The Theory and Practice of Oligarchical Collectivism” is a hell of read, as well as “The Navidson Record”.

But “The Necronomicon” is my favorite fictional book, I think.

Only reserve IPs that are outside of the DHCP range you’ve configured.

I’m still thoroughly stoked for this game.

Wat. There are three sides my dudes. What am I missing?

Same with meat on the bone for me. Like… I love a biryani, but it’s so much better when the chicken/lamb is boneless. I get that the bone imparts some flavor, but I don’t think it’s worth the effort and mess.

I bet you money he couldn’t point out where Haiti is on an unlabeled map of the Caribbean.

Child Stone and Theodore Nugget has made my evening, thank you.

This! Health insurance is the reason why medical costs in the US are so ridiculous. Health insurance, and IMO all insurance, is a scam. And since the “customers” (people who NEED care) can’t see the price of service beforehand, there is no way for them to choose the most cost efficient option, which allows providers to charge whatever they want. Then the insurance company can come up with reasons not to pay and put the client on the line for the cost.

I use/admin Linux each and every day at a professional level and at least once a week I’m final panel doggo.

I buy multiplayer games on steam since that’s where my friends are. I pirate almost everything else unless I want to support the developer (typically small indie games or high quality stuff like FromSoft). If I buy a game, I do prefer GOG but steam can be convenient, especially on Linux.

There are huge archives of flash animations and you can install a safe “emulator” for playing flash that even runs in your browser. Look up Ruffle. I can’t remember the name of the big archive site I used, but it didn’t take much googling. I know I was able to find Homestar, Larry Carlson, Adam Phillips (bitey), joe cartoon and salad fingers as well as a ton of games from back in the day.

I’m honestly fine just being a brain in a jar. Give me access to books and film and video games and I don’t think I need a body. Is there a name for what’s wrong with me?

Wait… You’re telling me that they continue to do crimes with guns even when the guns are illegal? Criminals? Really? I refuse to believe it.

I have never seen this actually happen and I have a lot of experience with gaming with randos (I’m old and I also started a gaming club in college that had over 75 members with at least 15 of them being female). I’ve been playing MTG and D&D at local shops for decades now and I’ve never once seen other dudes simping or fighting over a girl at the table.

Not saying it can’t happen, nerds are nerds and do often lack social skills. But from my experience (and from what I’ve heard from my female gamer friends), this has got to be a rare situation.

I actually really enjoyed trig class.

I hated all math classes before it, but I had a great teacher and something about the real-life usefulness (triangulation, navigation, etc) of trig clicked for me and I enjoyed it and made an A.

I fucking failed the shit out of statistics, and hilariously that’s the most related to my real life job, where I’m dealing with gigantic data sets daily looking for outliers/trends.

Airsonic Advanced and DSUB on Android are pretty good options since DSUB has advanced local caching options.

I aquire my music then run it through Picard for tagging which places it into my NAS where it is mounted to airsonic and jellyfin containers for consumption.

The jellyfin apps have gotten a lot better and I find myself using feishin and finamp more often lately.

A mile is 1.6KM, so 160 KM

Lol yup
