“Some people deserve to be punished.” - Amos Burton (actor Wes Chatham), The Expanse season 2, in reference to an opportunist who had been enriching himself during a humanitarian crisis; comparing him to pimps that force kids and vulnerable people into prostitution.

You can call it 𝓜𝓮𝓻𝓭𝓮, but it’ll still taste like shit.

Windows search bar

I’m baffled that people actually have the news on the taskbar. It’s the first thing I kill on every install (not that I use Windows, but sometimes I need it in a VM). I’m not letting Minitrue force-feed me.

The Man In The High Castle was supposed to be a speculative historical drama, not a rough guide to the future

It takes very little to sue a small project out of existence. It’s a risk they can’t take.

Remember kids, everything can be art.

Except what Destides posted. They have created the opposite of art.

He’s also a contributor to Asahi Linux. One of his MRs changed the build options that somehow caused it to (IIRC) use mainline Mesa instead of the branch that is specifically modified to work on ARM.

It’s not only his fault, but mostly.

Republicans took to the streets in adult diapers when it was revealed that their geriatric rapist felon wannabe god had to use diapers, with the rallying cry “REAL MEN WEAR DIAPERS”. Never assume that their degeneracy has an upper limit because they’ll prove you wrong the next day.

They’ve let TLS certs expire on multiple occasions. They’ve made the decision to enable the AUR in the default installation, which can cause conflicts with out-of-date dependencies because of the delayed release schedule compared to Arch. They’ve shipped software on their stable branch that included unmerged upstream code. One of their developers temporarily broke Asahi Linux.

I don’t hate the project, but I can’t trust the developers and management.

It’s all about trust. Manjaro has given me reasons to distrust them.

Woah, tone down that rhetoric, Yosif!

Elephants. African elephants have large ears to assist in maintaining their body temperature. Asian elephants that migrated farther north (India and S-E-Asia) evolved smaller ears because the evolutionary pressure wasn’t as significant.

Like this?

The Middle East has been cooking for so long, it’s impossible to point at a faction that is the “Good Guys”. But right now, one faction is hell-bent on exterminating another nation’s people, both military and civilian, so it should be pretty fucking obvious who the worst “Bad Guys” are. There are no good guys, only victims.

You should read Ramzi Yousef’s statement at his 1998 trial. Terrorist factions like Hezbollah and Hamas exist only because Israel is consistently refusing to make peace through diplomacy.

Where Linux?

(I might be open to allowing all memes related to the F/LOSS world even if not directly related to Linux… but you’ll have to convince me.)

It’s called the Milwaukee protocol, and it’s considered to be a failure.

The patient is put in a medically induced coma and treated with strong antiviral medication until the natural immune system can produce antibodies, but even a successful treatment doesn’t guarantee survival. Also, the debilitating neural damage. Honestly, I might still prefer a morphine overdose.

There were cases where symptomatic patients survived, but the number is in the lower single digits and they all suffered debilitating neural damage. I wouldn’t call it recovery, no.

The immunoglobulin treatment aims to eliminate the pathogen before it can infect the nervous system. Once that happens, once the headaches start, it’s game over.

They clearly didn’t have it.

How can you tell? The incubation period of rabies can last for years.

Internet famous, celebrity animals?

They were squirrels on Instagram. That amounts to nothing.

These keyboard warriors don’t understand how fucked up rabies can get. Near 100% fatal once the infected becomes symptomatic, and it’s probably one of the worst disease-related deaths I can imagine. I’d rather take a cyanide pill.

I live near a forest where the fox population had to be culled because of the potential contact between humans or their pets and infected animals. There were billboards and television announcements that warned against approaching a wild animal that is acting friendly because it’s an indicator of infection.
