Everyone knows more limbs means more capable, and above them all is zero limbs.

I don't like this.

Is it for downloading illegal content? i can't tell

I assume some of it is related to torrenting, but I can't tell which ones and how much. They can't all be for torrenting, right????

I'm assuming they also had more family and community than we have. And a lot less social pressure.

I had so much unsupervised time lol.

Store a lot of things you never access

Hope that helps 😌

I asked my parents exactly this.

They said something like

It was possible to live on one salary, so your mother could be a full time stay at home mom. This gave us the energy to be able to follow other passions

Basically 2 people with 2 full-time jobs between them have more energy than 2 people with 3 full time jobs between them.

Mom could volunteer and join clubs while I was at school. Dad could do marathons on the weekend. We could do family activities like camping or skiing because they weren't exhausted by also having to do another 40 hours of work per week between them.

Its true, but [politics incoming] it's harder since the nuclear home resulted in the elimination of community, and both parents are forced to work to get by, and it only looks to be getting worse.

Raising kids is great (for many people), but it shouldn't be your entire life. The unfortunate reality is that work and raising kids is the only life many people have access to.

It's also not really the case that parents are "doing it to keep the population up" so the premise is wrong.

But it's funny to imagine it that way

That's a lot of dragons. You sure they're not wyverns?

I need to do more to help the poor people around me.

I think I kinda get you, but also I think that it's just kinda the nature of humans to put people on pedestal. I can't really answer why (and honestly maybe I'm totally wrong, I'm not a social scientist).

As far as pedestal candidates go, if we had to choose, I'd rank him pretty high. Seems to be a fairly reasonable and ethical guy, pretty smart, willing to listen to experts, loves to learn, self aware, and seems to be pretty ethical. Not as far left as I'd like, but choices are slim lol.
How much is a facade and how much is truly him? We can never know. If it's a facade, it's an excellent one.

Ikr like... Give me a docker compose file and tell me what env vars need to be set to what. Why is it so complicated?

Lol yeah for sure, none of that is preachy. You're totally reading your own words in a totally unbiased way

 

The day should start at like... Equatorial dawn or something.

 

All of the major review websites for gaming hardware conspicuously did not include the smaller handheld OEMs in their head-to-head rankings/comparisons. Unfortunate it is only these smaller OEMs that support external GPUs.

I know that a bunch of ayaneo and onexplayer devices can run bazzite, can you folks recommend any (relatively ) unbiased reviews sites that can provide head-to-head comparisons that include the major OEMs and the smaller OEMs too?
I've been out of touch with the PC review scene for a while now and idk who is trustworthy and would still bother with the smaller brands.

I'm looking to pick up a new bazzite handheld that I can dock to an eGPU.

 

Looking at buying a handheld PC, and none of the review sites cover OEMs like ayaneo or onexplayer in their head-to-hear breakdowns, so I can't get an idea how those ones compare to the major OEMs.
It's frustrating because those small OEMs are the only ones that support eGPUs
But it's only mildly frustrating because honestly I know my usecase is a bit of an edge case.

What about being around 10000 bananas for 8 hours? Are people on banana plantations at significantly higher risk of cancer?

Come mista tally man
Tally me tumours
Daylight come and me need to go hospital 😔

 

I may have been packing lunches instead of showering, when I thought of this.

 

Back when optical disks were more common mediums for video games

 

She is so proud of me, she tells everyone

 

I cum in the shower, instead.

 

Imagine living in a universe where, without even trying, you can run so fast that if you trip, you will die and splatter your body over a couple hundred meters of ground. And if you trip into someone, it'll kill them and possibly an entire pile of people.

Like, in motor racing, the cars get wrecked but the drivers are fine. In the movie Cars, they all die. The race spectators are watching a blood sport.

 

What is a bread roll if not all crust?
What is toasting, if not making the whole piece of bread more crust-like?
