Here's something I learned from the 2005 feature film "Lord of War" starring Nicholas Cage:

That flag is now Dutch.

"$3,000 setup to play a game from 2010."

I have an RTX 4070 that I've been using to play Half Life. I've owned my copy for a while, but have never played it.

Drives my wife crazy lol

I was walking my dog around the yard last night. We don't have any lights in the backyard so I always go out with a flashlight. Pointing it at the ground, I could see them emerging by the dozens.

So anyway, the flashlight gets put up for a few weeks.

Fun fact: Neptune was discovered on 23 Sept 1846. It takes 164.8 Earth years for it to complete an orbit, which means that the first full Neptunian year since discovery happened 12 July 2011.

Pluto won't do this for another 154 years.

I would, but to do so, I must first insert my poo key. And I dunno, these voting requirements are getting more and more ridiculous each year. I have rights under the Twenty-Sixth, dammit!

Speaking of abusive owner, I saw a Cybertruck in the wild for the first time today. Pictures and videos don't do justice to how fucking atrocious those things are.

Depends on what I need to return to baseline.

  • Need to cry to just get it out? Moon Song by Phoebe Bridgers
  • Need to scream at everything? Monkey Wrench by Foo Fighters
  • Need to just piss and moan for fourteen minutes? Beach Life-in-Death by Car Seat Headrest
  • Need to feel calm again? Literally the entirety of Loveless by My Bloody Valentine
  • Need something to lift me up so I can wear a happy face? Don't Stop by Fleetwood Mac

BOB! I LOVE IT!!

Also, my guy has a primordial pouch. It flops left and right when he walks. Very funny. Not fat, just at the upper end of a healthy weight.

It's been the same story for years in Oklahoma. For a few years there, we were getting more earthquakes than California.

This makes me wonder how many Lemmy users have optical drives. I do.

It's all about what you're acclimated to. I've lived with 105 and dry in west Texas AND 90 and swampy in Oklahoma and I'll take the former. When the dew point hits about 70 degrees, you can sweat and sweat and sweat and sweat and none of it matters because it will almost never evaporate off of you. And 70 is baby humidity. We had a few days last summer where the dew point came up just short of 80. Which can make a 100 degree day yield a heat index of 125+.

And all that humidity really saps your AC's cooling potential. It spends most of its energy pulling moisture from the air instead of actually making the air cool enough to be much use. It'll be 80 degrees and swampy inside your house too, especially if it's older construction. Nobody ever mentions this when talking about dry heat vs wet heat. If you can keep your indoor dew point below 60, you're doing alright.

I'll take this over Florida or Houston. We start to get some real relief by Labor Day and it's usually gone entirely by Halloween.

Some of us here are paying attention and are aware of the situation. We just aren't all that common, unfortunately. You hear the same thing come up like clockwork when someone brings up the heat waves and wild fires in the PNW.

Isn't that basically the same life cycle as anglerfish?

My orange cat is the direct opposite. You look in his general direction for even a fraction of a second, and he's all over you like Grandma's kisses.

It's sweet.

But it's also exhausting sometimes.

I'm under no illusion Ubuntu is perfect. But I PAID for my Windows licenses. And if I paid, I don't want to see ads. I don't care about Win 8's penetrative pricing model or the $25 coupon. I don't care that I paid for my licenses 10+ years ago. Don't sell me ads on a product I paid for. And Windows serves up ads all the god damned time now. If there's anything good to be said about Windows 8, it's that it didn't take every opportunity to sell me an Office 365 subscription ever second breath I took. I don't actually remember the last time I saw an ad in Ubuntu, and I've been using it to varying degrees since 2011. I think we can at least agree Canonical is better than Microsoft, yeah?

All that said, I've had thoughts of switching to plain old Debian, especially now that I'd consider myself much more experienced and comfortable in Linux. But if I were recommending a distro to a new user, I am one million percent telling them Ubuntu or Mint, depending on how they feel about the Windows UI.
