That’s pretty much it. There was a WSJ article about this very thing: frequent flyer miles are more based on spending with the airline CC then by actually flying.

Ha ha. Yes of course. Corrected.

Windows is like the corner prostitute: pay some money, usually get what you want although not the best, occasionally get some horrible disease

Linux is like the sweet SO: has its quirks but you love them for it. let’s you grow in your skills but that can be challenging at times. Surprises you in good and bad ways.

Edit: for grammar

Can confirm that with pihole you still get these. I browse with vanilla chrome on my phone at home and use a pihole, and I get these messages.

Iambic (some-number)-ter FTW

Rhode Island Red or a hybrid thereof (e.g. Golden Comet).

Great egg layers (the hens of course, not the roo pictured) and very mild mannered.

Give a man a fire and he is warm for a day.

Set a man on fire and he is warm for the rest of his life.

Dammit. Beat me to it

I bought my Tesla 4 years ago before EM went full douche mode. I actually quite like the car but would not buy one these days on account of him.

Looks like I have a fun Saturday project. Thanks!

You haven’t installed Linux until you’ve done it in the original Klingon.

Named tab groups.

Don’t get me wrong…I still use FF on Linux, but this is the one thing I miss…and the extension don’t seem to work as well as native groups…

I feel this.

Although my last bootloader is adventure was pretty easy…installed a completely separate drive for Linux and wanted to boot off of that drive (sdb). A bug in the Linux mint installer put the bootloader on my the windows drive instead (sda).

Was fairly straightforward to switch over though (change in fstab then installing grub). I use the bios boot selector (F11) for me to select either the win loader or my Linux mint efi.

Am switching over to Linux as primary driver. So tired of nags, ads, “switch to Edge”, long updates, etc. love being able to ssh+x onto that (relatively beefy) box from my laptop and run ides and such.

He did do one on world war II regarding the history and rise of the Japanese empire. Like all of his podcast, is very well done.

Fair enough, mate.

Using the touch screen as a pain, for sure. However, nearly all commands on the touch screen can be accessed via voice commands from a button on the steering wheel. In practice, the need to use the touch screen while driving (other than to monitor your speed and cruise control settings) is practically zero.

The voice commands work as well as anything. It’s much easier to push the roller button on the steering wheel and say “turn on defroster” than to manipulate controls (either on a touch screen or non-touch screen interface)

Reminding me of corrupted .mdb files means I need more alcohol tonight to pacify the demons in my head

OMG I feel old.

Also regret the money I spent buying Sun stock in the late 90s.
