All my devices, Linux or otherwise, have a host name after fictional a vessel be it water, air, or space. Weatherlight, Swordfish_II, Hammerhead, Pequod, Flying_Dutchman, Serenity, Arwing, Cloudbase, Prydwen, Nebuchadnezzar... I'm sure there are more I'm not thinking of. Nebuchadnezzar is my LTO machine that I can never spell correctly... but that's fine, I only log in to do an annual backup to cold and fresh install of any workstation or laptop or cellphone to tape and store in my safe. Have been doing that for 3 years now. I have to look up how to spell it literally every time.

This feels like one of those European translated turns of phrase. Like in Dutch there is a phrase that translates to "monkey sandwich story" that is used to call somebody a liar.

Because the alternatives are to roll over and take it or revolt with violence and we should strive for peaceful resolution before violent revolution.

Nintendo is a Japanese company. They settled out of court. The US legal system did not get involved...

Deluxe editions of games are anti-consumer even if it is an upgrade. Just sell the whole fucking game to me or don't sell anything at all.

If you have more than one outlet in your bathroom and only one is GFCI, they are likely already wired downstream of the protected outlet and will be protected.

What american genocide is being censored?

Every person I've ever talked to from Chicago says deep dish is a tourist thing. I have to agree with the larger consensus that it's not that good. Not awful by any means but it's not good enough for how difficult it is to eat without making a big mess.

Well here's another fun fact about steam for you then, you can sell your game on steam and retain the full profit of the sale by selling steam keys on other platforms like itch.io or humble bundle. The only stipulation to this method of sale is that you have to sell it at the same price the game is listed on steam at. Steam does not take a cut of steam key sales and encourages developers to distribute steam keys. They are free to request from steam and you can request however many you would like. No other platform does this.

But we aren't in an Idiocracy like in the movie. That movie was about well meaning idiots in government because they were the "smartest" of the idiot population. What we currently have is an evil corporatocracy. Capitalism decides how our elected officials govern through lobbying. People are becoming dumber over time because of knowing, bad actors who want that to be the case. Education is getting worse, those in charge want citizens to fall in line and they want us to fight so that we elect the same people over and over and over again so that said people can continue to reap the benefits of that corporate lobbying.

Top to bottom the system is the way that it is because of intelligent bad actors squeezing us for all we are worth, not idiots.
