He misjudged his centre of mass. As many men do. ;)

Do you have a program to help you count sheep to fall asleep? Asking for a friend

Yeah, it was fucking weird. Which is why I started googling and found this.

Or the opposite – you wake up with the cat sleeping on your chest, nose three inches from yours, and you’re like: “I just want to roll over and now I can’t!”

This is actually hilarious.

Nice perspective.

What would you consider to be a contribution of value? Posting? Comments? Moderating? Installing a server rack in your closer for nightly backups? What would you suggest a minimum contribution for continued use should be?

I’m hoping it’s not irradiated by then.

When modern billboards became a thing, many cities or similar jurisdictions passed laws limiting their proliferation, in order to ensure you didn’t end up in a billboard filled dome.

In Canada, at least, you can register your address as a “no admail” destination, and you’ll stop getting those flyers entirely. It doesn’t stop certain protected classes of ads, in particular ads for prospective politicians during an election campaign, or mail that is personally addressed to you (even if it is an ad). But does shut it almost completely down. This would be the legal equivalent of installing a real-world ad-blocker.

Admittedly, a lot of people have flawed reasoning too.

I worked on open source software for over a decade (KDE). When we started having in person conferences, that’s the first time money changed hands. And even then, the conference attendance was free. Viewed through this lens of experience, this feels like an attempt to earn money from the fediverse for running video chats, rather than a grassroots effort.

Old man yells at cloud.

Birth is gross when viewed through this lens.

Paid online event? Weird. What happened to IRC for these sorts of meetings. I’m old.

Hey, AI can’t get them right, why should we? ;)

I’m in this comment and I don’t know why

Rotten potatoes. Not good.

Pro tip: when you find a comment by someone you find interesting or insightful on a topic you wish to see more about - click on their profile and see where else they’re posting. It’s a great way to find additional communities.

Furthermore, lemmyverse.net is amazing for finding communities.

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.
