It isn't about the achieving the stated results (deportations), it's about putting on a circus for his base and building himself a personal army built entirely of members of his personality cult.

At work whenever we need to build little command line tools, my team is always vexxed by my guideline to have the meat+potatoes in a script that reads well-formatted data off stdin , and outputs well formatted-data to stout. They always wanna have some stupid interactive prompts and saving to files baked right in.

This is exactly why. You wanna save to a file?? > file

You want to read from a file? cat |

You want to save to a file but swap commas for colons? Sed.

You get so much FOR FREE w/ the GNU toolkit, even for what you build yourself, by thinking in streams.

I was about to shit a brick that you went from "go to the official trusted source" to "just trust me: curl [x] | sudo bash"

If I've said it once, I've said it a hundred times:

The Canadian office of Official Critic of Secondary Education and Sport has FAR too much unilateral power in the G8/7.

Finally someone had the balls to say it on the world stage.

Had to be me. Someone else might have gotten it wrong.

Directly from my ass, it's my assumption that the primary maintainers just don't have an incentivize the cost of supporting older devices and the disparate hardware configurations.

Like, planned obscellesance or not, smartphone churn is going to happen anyways. People lose them, smash them, fall into a pool with them, decide they NEED the newer camera soldered into them, etc...

It's not like there are old phones in a closet somewhere propping up business critical infrastructure like with computers.

The cost vs utility of maintaining forward features and security patches for a massive catalog of hardware configurations just isn't there.

You don't even need a brain. Just a heart.

They're either trying to get your goat, or it's genuine. Either way, it's not making the world any better by bestowing upon yourself the title of judge and enforcer. You're either taking bait or you're a fucking cop. "Ok" is all you gotta say.

I don't even think it's true.

This sounds like Trump floundering to take credit for anything. And in the absence of something, he invented a hypothetical

I'm uncomfortable with the idea that the only reason that being trans is valid is because of biological factors.

If we could construct a human that came into existence without being Female at some gestational point, you gonna tell them they can't be trans? If someone has a thyroid problem such that they their body CAN'T handle a sex hormone, you gonna tell them they can't be trans?

I feel like we're looking for a 9-D chess play when a 1-D play is sufficient: you say you're trans, you're trans. I'm not the fucking cops

 

Our city leaves free dirt out at the fire station for people to spread on their sidewalks in the winter. I grabbed some for the back ally which is very icy.

I probably only grabbed 30 lbs or so, but I was still very diligent to lift it properly. Last thing I need over the holidays is to have a sore back.

 

I know that the CTrain reminders to not forget your newspapers when leaving the train have been overwhelmingly successful because I haven't seen a newspaper on the train even one time in the last 10 years.
