Yeah, I meant “guaranteed”

the US doesn’t give their citizens the same rights as those in other countries receive.

The U.S. doesn’t give their citizens the same rights that the U.S. constitution has.

When people ask me why I like Linux, my go-to reason is my main personal machine. I use it for everything I do outside of work, including running my Emby server.

I built it from $500 worth of parts 13 years ago. I’ve kept updating the os and applications. It’s starting to slow down a bit after the last os upgrade, but it’s still plenty usable.

I am getting concerned about the spinning platters. As far as I am aware, Linux won’t prevent an ancient hard disk drive from reaching the natural end of is life.

It’s probably time to move on to a new machine. Well, new motherboard, CPU, RAM, and disks at least.

I live in The U.S., so of course I’m not actually familiar with a functional health care system. However almost 50 years ago when I was in elementary school, there were health lessons that taught us kids how to brush and floss.

Regular flossing doesn’t seem to be the kind of thing you should need an X-ray to learn about.

That’s ridiculous.

The spy’s actual activities are criminal. They didn’t come into the country to get a job working construction or to get an education or escape criminal activities at home. They came into the country to specifically violate the laws of the country.

If a hitman comes into a country to assassinate someone, it doesn’t matter if they’re doing it for money. They should be held accountable for the crimes they commit in the country.

Did you read the article? They weren’t migrants, they were spies.

I’m ok with people sneaking in to make money. I’m ok with people sneaking in to escape bad situations.

Don’t pretend that spies aren’t committing a crime in the country where they are spying.

I’m guessing the French wouldn’t be especially accommodating to such vigilantism.

You are absolutely correct!

You’d need to use a guillotine.

It’s $16 now.

That which doesn’t kill you probably isn’t a parasitic wasp sting.

The trick is to license private companies to produce the powder. You still get the budget savings, and you get reasonable license fees from the private companies, but you offload the risk of having to invest in the industrial dehydrators.

Yeah, but it’s not like anything interesting and movie-worthy ever happened back then.

As others have pointed out, Neapolitan ice cream is not named after Napoleon.

Extra painful when you consider there is a pastry called Napoleon:

How?

The nice thing about Linux is, he can’t buy it and fuck it up.

As I understand it, it isn’t sunlight, but distance.

If a child spends all its time indoors focusing on nothing farther than the walls, myopia will result.

Because ignoring genocides is what the world does.

“This is frightening! Someone like me afraid of heights might just wet myself up there!” wrote one Chinese online commenter.

If you’re afraid of heights, why the hell would you be up there? Wrong turn on the way to the corner store?

Report back.

I have heard that the younger generations just want to bang on the drum all day.
