Everyone making a huge problem outta this. Wait until birds are gone if they’re there (fall or winter is fine). Borrow a ladder (preferably fibreglass), and gently remove while wearing gloves. Doesn’t look like any wires are damaged or at risk.
Someone else suggested a leaf blower. Might work. ;)
Pissing into the wind.
“Decaf!?”, he screamed incredulously as he plunged the broken carafe into the barkeepers neck.
Nope, haha. OpenSuse is old.
This is an amazing graph. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Linux_Distribution_Timeline.svg
OpenSuse comes from Suse which comes from Jurix and Slackware. There’s a dotted line from Redhat, because of the use of the RPM format, but that is as far as their interbred. Many people consider it one of the OG distros.
Arch sprang from the aether later, but one could argue it owes Gentoo for its concept (also a dotted line there).
Debian is an OG. It, Redhat, and Suse are approximately the same age.
Slackware on the other hand just keeps going.
There are a lot of people who are bad at business.
A $40 paper flower, and a $2000/mo lease. Assuming you are sole proprietor and have zero employees, and need an additional $2000/mo to live a meagre existence (food, apartment, etc.) and it takes you 15 minutes to fold each flower.
Minimum revenue to stay afloat, 800 flowers per month. You’d need to fold for 200 hours, or approximately a 40 hour week of folding. That leaves zero time to do any marketing. So you’re relying entirely on foot traffic, or you’re marketing as overtime.
To reach 800 sales per month with something so trivial, you’d property require a reach of at least 20,000 customer touch points per month, each who has the time to chat about paper flowers, because your conversion rate is going to be shit. If it’s passive reach, you might need to get an ad in front of half a million per month. You’d need to be a tiktok celeb or something to get this reach without adding expensive ads. And that’s a fucking gamble and a half.
There’s no way this model works. And the fact that someone tried it isn’t something to celebrate. They possibly poured their life savings into the drain, went bankrupt, and hopefully concluded they were bad at business.
If you want to sell paper flowers, do it as a side gig from you home. Or make them so luxurious that you can sell them at $1000 each, and rich people buy them as wedding presents – then you only need to sell four per month and can spend the rest of the time marketing.
Moths are nudists. Checkmate atheists
Right. I’m messaging three of them now. Apparently they want my credit card
Yeah, that’s been a long term problem for them.
I don’t want to see a modern Japan on war footing. I also don’t want to see a modern China on war footing. But here we go.
Non-animal fabrics don’t have this issue.
You’d be served dog, probably. This breed is called papillon because its ears look like butterflies.
I thought GCC dropped support for compiling to the abacus?
1.5% per month. Don’t compare directly to your home country’s annual inflation yet. Unless you’re Turkey or Russia.
Someone I know was in St Petersburg last week. The government shut down the internet due to this meeting, and we totally lost touch with them. But the internet being shut down in a major Russian city to quash any attempt to protest doesn’t even make news anymore.
You have a confirmation bias.
There’s a lot of versions and variations of this, all saying the same thing. Including the comic above. I don’t think any of them are wrong, as long as the message is heard :)
Rotten potatoes. Not good.
