Thank you for pointing that out. With 66 open issues, it would seem helpful to continue maintaining. Ah, well, free code is hard to keep working on.

You are right. Thank you

I have never read them except out of Boredom

Fun Fact: this has always been true. That and avoiding the children. In the days of outhouses, sitting on the toilet for hours was not great. So they read newspapers.

Edit: I was more being funny about wasting time in the bathroom too avoid child responsibility. People have often needed long times to make things work. The person that responded to me had some great points.

Very true! I love thinking about ancient greeks complaining about “kids these days.”

F-Droid is fantastic for privacy respecting software.

Tiny Travel Tracker (Secure long term GPS tracker and log) The description seems very focused on keeping things private and as a Google Maps location history. I have not used it.

ZFS is a large consu6 of RAM. I would think putting swap in ZFS is a terrible idea. I have not checked current recommendations.

Is this an actual video wall? Looked like bad CGI art. Kinda absurd.

Great post though.

If you can, perhaps talk with your boss about the situation. “I am hungry as my apartment building had a fire and all my food might be covered in toxins”, is a one off that gets some extra dispensation.

Edit: your response as 6 hours ago. You either are the chips, or are at work.

Right! My imagination makes the best images.

The bright colors. Something has changed and suddenly neon jackets and shirts were available. It felt very optimistic and futuristic. Everything was briefly neon. It was glorious.

It was not long after that pants got huge and clothing got dark, subtle, and depressed. Like everyone wants to be an adult and not an easy target for the random gunmen.

Shit. School shootings weren’t a thing. I miss that not being a thing.

Neon all of the things!

I was going to add other groups that would have to be in on it, but it is only required that you are all not real.

I am real. My family is real. But outside maybe 30 miles from my house, no one else needs to be real.

Sure, I can and have driven farther, but the trackers alert the actors. This has the advantage of the Earth’s population can be just a few hundred thousand total.

Why? Clearly, I am the last truly important person, for reasons that are not yet clear.

So … 50,000 people are in on it at least. And they are… 40%+ of the Earth’s population.

Edit: to finish the thought. OP’s 10% puts those in on it at 800 million people. My 50 thousand is a much smaller number.

True.

A case can be made for a large number of buttons. I wonder if the extra complications of multiple buttons would have a good payoff.

The espresso machine next to the drip coffee maker also has issues.

No. Bed, Bath, and Beyond.

I like it. It is a bit heavy handed with the philosophy. I would love to see more.

Didn’t the use to put the astronauts into quarantine for a few days prior to launch. It avoids hangovers and the flu, in space.

Pretty sure they are providing train data to facilitate the optimal learning of silicon intelligence for the repair of chairs. Future mamels can then chat with the bot to learn Christmas gifts for humans.

Great point. IBM has a long history of squeezing every penny from their customers. At one corner job, IBM had to come onsite a few times a year to perform system updates. We were not allowed by IBM to upgrade the OS ourselves.

Sadly, message does not list a dollar amount. Replies are great though. Lots of pointing out the listed items are small compared to corporation size.

Thank you!
