In my case, I think I matter quite a bit to 6-7 people (family and a few close friends); and matter somewhat to maybe 6-7 more. I don't think anyone else would really care. And I've learnt to make my peace with it. I used to be the people-pleaser type, but I've been happier living on my own terms.
I guess it's saying that Arch people use the AUR and PKGBUILD files. Idk exactly. It might even be a reference to the (somewhat) recent malware incident with the *-patch-bin browser packages. I must admit that I don't really find it funny. But maybe I too am missing the point here. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Anyway, in case you don't know, and wish to use Arch at some point, the content on AUR is user submitted, and hence security cannot be guaranteed. People do report malicious packages, and it's safe in general. But always read the PKGBUILD before installing anything, just in case something silly is going on.
I don't think it'll be ideal. Converting the mirror to z1 would be a big hassle. I don't see any migration path where I can safely lose a disk without losing data. Also, if both of the old drives fail, I lose everything.
In any case, I'm perfectly happy with 8TB for now. It's a doubling of my current capacity, of which I'm only using around 70%. I'll be fine for quite a few years.
(Also, won't it be around 12 TB, and not 14.5 TB?)
I usually was lucky enough to get hyper fixated just before exams due to my anxiety. So I was a straight-A student. But it was always a struggle against myself. And it kept getting harder as I got into college, and then university. I also constantly got the "not reaching my potential" line even though I was very good academically, since I sucked in the regular classes and only shined in exams. Basically, they thought that I could do even better if I could perform that well without even trying. (I was trying my best, or least as much as my monkey brain would allow me.)
I remember when I joined high school, people thought I was cheating in exams because I barely did homework (it wasn't graded, so didn't feel any pressure to do it well) and was frequently distracted. But soon enough they realized that it's just the way I was.
Even now, I need to give myself forced deadlines by promising my colleagues/superiors so that the anxiety of embarrassment forces me to actually do my work. I want to get a diagnosis, but you guys know how hard it is for us to get motivated for that.
They're always pro bootlicking.
All the reasons that others mentioned, plus it sound cool.
I'm just waiting for Forgejo federation to be a thing, and some sort of definitive website for discovering projects. Right now, even though I do have my slefhosted forgejo instance, I still need to keep my code on GitHub, or no-one else will ever know about it.
Because he's pretty much that. Idk about the middle eastern part. (Why did you even include that phrase, are you racist? There are dictators in Europe, South America, North America, all parts of Asia, idk how Australia is nowadays.)
But he's definitely a dictator.
Milk too. I only need milk for my cortados, so often end up with way too much milk. Usually end up making some milk cakes.
It's like the people complaining about SJWs and cancel culture. Sure, some people are annoying and use these things to harass others, but the vast majority are just normal people who care about certain things. But people on the other side, when they can't provide a good argument against them, start to vilify the people themselves. It's similar to how right wingers cry about decorum when they're more likely to vote for rapists.
I must admit that I had given into this anti-SJW hate at some point in my late teens, but I luckily realized how I was acting like a little bitch, hating on people I don't even know just because they're passionate about equality. The funny thing was, I still believed in their causes, but was pretty much brainwashed into believing that they're hurting the cause by being vocal. It's weird how dumb we often are.
Honestly, the only American politician who I really like is Zohran. Even Bernie has weird stances when it comes to Palestine, even though he's probably the second best one. I tried to like and trust AOC, but she's all bark and no bite.
