The rich are the problem, something needs to be done about them. I’m hungry.

Edit- ugh, embarrassing misspelling left up too long.

No shit?

No idea what to say about this, or what it even is. But I’m sorry to hear it. I had a very similar situation as a kid, multiple divorces, used as a pawn in their fight over money. It’s rough, but I learned from their mistakes and have a strong marriage that works.

Nah, been great, getting married was the smartest thing I’ve ever done.

Exactly, the vision was flawless, it will all be blamed on the execution. The people who failed to build it will be held accountable though; departments of them…

Fucking awesome system we have here.

You think that’s bad, I got married in 2008.

Then again, I’ve done a lot in that time, 3 kids into it, including 2 teenagers…

I actually kind of want him to succeed in this. If we manage to get ourselves out of this fucking nightmare, we’re going to need to undo a lot of damage, and this would open up one much needed tool.

Big fan. I don’t demand much from a window manager, just stay out of the way. I’ve never really had to give cinnamon any thought, shit just works. I spend most of my time in a terminal window though, so not really pushing the GUI.

This is cursed, unnecessary, unexpected and impressive all at the same time.

There’s the 27% crazy factor:

John: Hey, Bush is now at 37% approval. I feel much less like Kevin McCarthy screaming in traffic. But I wonder what his base is —

Tyrone: 27%.

John: … you said that immediately, and with some authority.

Tyrone: Obama vs. Alan Keyes. Keyes was from out of state, so you can eliminate any established political base; both candidates were black, so you can factor out racism; and Keyes was plainly, obviously, completely crazy. Batshit crazy. Head-trauma crazy. But 27% of the population of Illinois voted for him. They put party identification, personal prejudice, whatever ahead of rational judgement. Hell, even like 5% of Democrats voted for him. That’s crazy behaviour. I think you have to assume a 27% Crazification Factor in any population.

Thanks, I’ll look there. I usually just go Amazon or Newegg (easy returns if bad) but I’m sure there are better deals out there.

I used to pay like $69 for them in the US. Looks like they add a hundred bucks or so to the price…

I’ve got 30tb or so made up of 4 and 10tb used drives. All I’ll buy anymore. In fact, I need to change out of of my parity drives. Hopefully used market is still somewhat affordable.

I already have my nodes up and running. It’s been picking up like mad lately, much more chatter than this time last year.

You are a sane, rational and empathetic person. Well said.

I mean, fair enough, I’m not here to defend him, just an example of there being outliers. like I said, I wouldn’t give any of them the benefit of the doubt.

He intentionally walked in front of her car while drawing his weapon to fire. No hesitation, carrying a cell phone and gun and still wasn’t enough to cause anything but a stumble. He called her a fucking bitch and casually walked away.

This was murder, cold blooded, intentional and you are an asshole. Go find somewhere else to suck up to authority.

Hasn’t worked so far but I’ll keep it up.

D’’oh, meant to paste a quote, must have had a url in my clipboard. Thanks for the heads up.

Exactly, he was holding a phone and a gun and she didn’t even knock him off balance while he called her a “fucking bitch” as he murdered her.
