The Aztecs believed that Hummingbirds were spirits of fallen warriors.

This made me imagine Dracula running off giggling like a kid. We need another version where it’s the vampire, wolf man and the mirror and the vampire is stirring the pot.

Who knew that 10 squirrels in a trench coat could get a physics degree?

Oddly enough that feeling fits with the epistemology topic 😂

Sorry to pile on but now compare the far right US Republican rhetoric to Hitler’s talking points.

Rimworld. You can do everything from hedonistic hobbit type colonies to the most despicable humans to have ever lived. Very relaxing to me.

When I’m feeling nostalgic, Shining Force II for the Sega Genesis.

Playing the games I payed for on hardware that can actually run them. Or just whatever hardware I want.

Less competency porn and more strapping a warp core to a photon torpedo in an attempt to make a black hole 😂 I’d still binge it

Bold of you to assume that there will be anyone around to deem us “ancient”

The point is to start healing his mind before he has the impulse to become a shooter. Prevention vs punishment. The impulse to punish is also sad ‘Murica noises smh

Or ask him how he’s doing. Trying to catch him out instead of helping him won’t solve anything.

That owl is giving the “do NOT take pictures of my kid” look.

It’s wild how you get: gun buyback programs = bad. Rather than: corrupt corporations need watchdogs.

Linode has some cool “turnkey” solutions for this. One example: https://www.linode.com/marketplace/apps/nextcloud/nextcloud/

Either way is fine it just depends on what you’re comfortable with and what you have on hand/want to buy.

That’s literally philosophy 101. When writing philosophical arguments one of the core parts is restating the point you are arguing against clearly and faithfully.

Username doesn’t check out

Careful here. Absolutely start learning bash, but one of the points of Mint is that everything a normal user needs to do can be done through a settings gui. Don’t feel bad for reaching for the gui if you need to get something done and don’t have time right then and there to learn. Have fun!

I know some software engineers like that. Some of it is knowing that the companies that make iot devices don’t give a crap about security. Some of it is plain ol paranoia. Mechanical door locks can be picked does that mean you invest in guard dogs? Crime is a thing but so is misanthropy. I think we should take reasonable precautions but believe that there are more good ppl than bad.

Honestly the robot vacuums make this 1000% better

Would have been better if his response was “ah shit”
