I’m pretty sure there are a handful of states that cloud seed. It has nothing to do with the imaginary chem trails though.

It’s such a dichotomy. Women get catcalled every day and feel uncomfortable and harassed. Understandable. The average man gets catcalled a handful of times in his life and cherishes those moments almost as much as their children’s births.

Such a fucking letdown. I didn’t have a lot of faith in him, but I hoped that his being shut out of the SC would at least light a fire under his ass, hell what did he have to lose? FUUUCK!!

Before I went to University one of my parent’s University friends told me that my dad got laid a lot back in the day. Like looked me in the eye for emphasis when he said,“A LOT!” I didn’t have the best relationship with my dad, but before I went off to higher learning, I broached the subject with him. “How?” was my basic question. He looked a little confused and just said,“I just asked them if they wanted to fuck. Most said no, some said yes.” It’s not complicated.

Easy, but then people will throw up their hands and say,“That’s not easy, how the fuck am I supposed to know that?”

You know that through man pages, tdlr or whatever. Then if you find yourself doing it a lot, you make a tiny script that makes the process something like

I absolutely hate all this container shit, for my uses. That said, they make sense when you need to sandbox applications for whatever reason, but most of those uses seem like they would be better served with VMs.

It always makes me kind of sad when people disparage CLI use. It’s like people thinking they don’t need to actually learn anything because they can always look up what they need to know on their phone. It seems a shame to miss so much of the richness of the experience. I found myself arguing, promoting, whatever, terminal use a few times and then realized how pointless it is. It’s like arguing with someone about what food they like. You can just hope they develop a more sophisticated palate at some point, or at least become more open-minded, but you can’t force it on them.

This was a long way to get around to saying I like that you had that change of frame and are embracing the fun of personalizing your interactions with your computer.

terrorism

n 1: the calculated use of violence (or the threat of violence) against civilians in order to attain goals that are political or religious or ideological in nature; this is done through intimidation or coercion or instilling fear

Well, kind of sounds like textbook terrorism. And to be clear, I’m cheering on these terrorists. This is terrorist on terrorist action and, in my opinion, a fair and fitting response.

The simple answer: corrupt capitalism.

…what different paths have been taken? Certainly not enacting a tax code that would make multiple unit ownership progressively unfeasible. That’s just a start. Of course, that would take the electorate to actually be educated and informed in their voting and stop reelecting these geriatric ghouls on both sides of the aisle. To be fair (to be faaaiiiirr) I share a lot of your nihilism.

Your sarcastic inability to see a different path does not mean a different path doesn’t exist.
