I don’t know why anyone would question why a psychopath with too much money would lie. I mean, c’mon everyone. What does he have to gain?!

I wish he’d eat a homeless man’s ass.

Ever since IBM / Red Hat ruined CentOS, I’ve been using Debian when I need Linux. Welcome in from the cold. We have hot coco and blankets.

MacOS (less with each release). One of the Linux distros that aims to minimize the “Linux” experience for new users, like Mint. There are others that are also good for new users who don’t care what’s underneath. I’ll let others suggest them as I don’t keep track of them all.

“My daughter, who was always mad about my guns, agreed to come see my new gun. I don’t know how it accidentally shot her in the head.”

That a grand jury in TX didn’t move on this is a real indictment of the citizens of that state. But we already knew what sort of people live there and are proud of their politics.

Struggle to paste the path to a file. Seriously.

Guess what car I won’t buy.

Yes, 100%. When I opened an investment account, I explained to our financial planner that I was going through the motions doing what I know I’m supposed to as a responsible adult. But I absolutely don’t expect humanity not to destroy itself before the point in my life where I’m supposed to reap that reward.

Hence, I spend more than is probably advisable on things like going to shows, travel, special events, etc. I wanna enjoy as much as possible before it all burns down, cause that’s exactly what’s gonna happen. And I plan on checking out early if things get bad enough, but that’ll be a while yet.

Ostanin was also convicted of offending the feelings of Christians with another off-colour joke he made about Jesus, which angered Orthodox nationalists.

This is arguably the greater crime. Fuck off religious people, keep that shit to yourself and don’t bother others about it.

Asked by the judge on Wednesday whether he understood his sentence, Ostanin said: “To hell with your judicial practice. No, I don’t.”

This guy is a fucking badass. What a terrible shame. Hope he comes out on the other side in one piece.

Install Fedora in a VM if you can?

They’re great devices.

Recently, my partner’s 18yo nephew asked her if she had any iPods (she doesn’t). I took a photo of the eight or so different models that I still have in storage and sent it to him just to gloat. I’m a monster.

C’mon now. You’re not nearly rich or influential enough to get away with that and you know it. Rules are for regular people, not the rich or mighty. Sheesh.

No. I can’t think of a better way of mobilizing the people than taking away internet. This won’t happen. If it does, it will be a disaster.

It’s finally the year of Desktop Linux, about fifteen (or more) years after people thought it would happen. I’m happy for all the nerds who are finally vindicated. (I like Linux, but I’m an Apple guy.)

I’m still pretty pissed off about that. It’s when I learned that a huge number of my fellow citizens are really stupid. Covid was when I learned that they’re also hateful pieces of shit.

Freedom fries, you guys. Woohoo.

Fuck that. It was predicted a full year before. This is bullshit. Stop reading the NYT. They lied about the attack on Oct 7 (claimed sex crimes that didn’t happen) and never made a retraction. I cancelled my subscription to them and to the Washington Post (cause Bezos killed an opinion piece endorsing Biden, who I voted for because fuck Trump, but Biden was a terrible candidate).

Listen to the audio-book, “Manufacturing Consent,” from Noam Chomsky. Unfortunately, he’s in the Epstein docs, so I can’t recommend him otherwise. Oh well. All these people are monsters.

I’ll say it again: We need to disenfranchise older people from voting. They have no stakes in long-term decisions and they’re hurting us. Yes, my mom is a racist piece of shit who voted for Trump three times. Yes, she’s hurting us. Yes, I cut her off for doing so.

You would have really liked the comedian we saw last night. Epstein files were the main topic. Sammy Obeid. Good stuff.

This was my first outloud-laugh of the day. I love it.

Once again is not accurate. The surge is unlike anything before. It’s pretty incredible and that speaks to how badly they have fucked up. There was an article about how they are reevaluating their AI stuffs. Whether that’s true or not, I don’t know, but that it could be plausible says a lot.

Probably the only good outcome of the second Trump admin is countries moving off of USA tech. I’m here for it.
