That explains so much, I’ve never put a hole in a wall (except with a drill, to attach things).

He’s seen going through brick walls frequently.

We have concrete and cinderblock walls, too. We usually reserve that material for prisons, though. or schools. No better educational environment quite like painted white cinderblocks.

I’m not from there, but who doesn’t know the name of Scunthorpe?

Same. The internet needs more strange nonsense.

Far Cry 2 through 4 are fun. After that it’s pretty meh.

Technically that’s a British tradition.

Got my location mixed up for Stonewall.

This is not my beautiful house

No.

Existence had grown exponentially more expensive in my lifetime, well outpacing what a 401k or pension will realistically ever be able to achieve. At best, it might buy me 5-10 years after I am physically unable to work; if I mentally decline too soon due to age (quite likely in my family), I will die in poverty.

That isn’t even touching on the possibility of a habitable climate or war, and assumes the survival of the current economic system.

A US news echo chamber at the whims of whatever they think will appease trump is going to be horrifying…

Try Linux in a VM (virtual machine) for a while.

• Low hassle compared to dual booting,
• no risk of Microsoft randomly doing something to windows that breaks your Linux install.
• low/No system downtime if you decide you don’t like one distro or another and want to switch,
• no loss of game data for your son (I’ve lost so many saves because of games putting them in nonsensical places in windows; why is appdata still the default for minecraft saves!?)

Nah, I’ve always used metal bowls.

I for one welcome our eldritch space otter overlords.

Weird opinion of mine; of the major varieties of porn, furry porn is significantly less objectionable.

• Live Action: major sex trafficking issues, “revenge porn”
• Hentai: its drawn and actual people arent harmed, but what the actual fuck is with Japans r@pe and child fetishes?!
• Furry porn: it’s drawn; you get some of the same awful stuff as hentai but it’s heavily frowned upon by the community and much easier to filter out.

Cincinnati is a strange and wonderful place.

Florida has had Do Not Travel advisories for at least a year for anyone trans (and frankly anyone LGBTQ+ in general).

Was that one of the protests where they sprayed manure on buildings? Or stopped trash pickup? Or a different one? The French are glorious in their ability to protest.

Florida is going to be absolutely overwhelmed with MAGA during that time-frame.

IT support everywhere sigh in satisfaction

It’s less about the means of communication now as it is an absolute state of surveillance to act upon before things are even in motion.

It’s name is probably caught be most automatic word filters, being one letter off from a racial slur.
