Seriously, if you’re motivated enough to do this, you should give programming a try. Python or Ruby or Javascript are ideal for this kind of thing, and you can solve problems like this in a few lines of code… just look up “word frequency in Python” or whatever language for examples.

If you want to see what the next level of this kind of analysis looks like, watch a few videos about how Elasticsearch works… not so much so you can USE Elasticsearch (although you can, it’s free), but just to get a sense of how they approach problems like this: Like imagine instead of just counting word occurrences, you kept track of WHERE in the text the word was. You could still count the number of occurrences, but also find surrounding text and do a bunch of other interesting things too.

Which denominations implement idempotent baptisms?

OONI monitors internet censorship and other forms of network interference, especially by state actors, worldwide. It’s an important contributor to digital rights and freedoms IMO, and you can run their client in the background to contribute non-personal data on pretty much any device.

How is your network handling telemetry shenanigans?

When they send over these time travelers, they’re not sending their best…

Lol why is Aqua Net hairspray specifically the thing that takes them down? Like other brands of hairspray don’t work? Spray paint or Elmer’s glue or maple syrup aren’t effective? You can’t just throw a bedsheet over them or hit them with a crowbar?

Lol I went through the exact same process.

It’s just any time there’s that much excitement, it must be no good, you know?

I didn’t actually realize that he didn’t say “metric fuckton” until I saw your comment and went back to reread it.

Well yes it needs to be inaugurated first, which will not happen until January.

I interpreted “it” in the post title as referring to Linux. Firefox is “just a browser,” but Linux is not.

Playing Diplomacy I’m pretty sure violates the Geneva convention.

Yep, you did it-- Mint is the right answer!

Damn okay well if the hackers are at that level I guess you’re just screwed.

Mine is not a Tesla, and its range is exaggerated… Or at least its range has a hidden asterisk that would read “under ideal conditions with a gentle driving style.” It self-adjusts based on my recent driving history, and I mostly don’t let the battery get low enough that I have to care about how precise it is… But it definitely skews heavily optimistic, especially when I first bought the car. It’s roughly the same in that regard as a Tesla is, according to the Tesla drivers I know.

Whoa really? How did you figure it out? I’d love to do that with my car, even if it’s a pain.

Let’s see the hackers figure that one out!

If you use iCloud mail (I don’t), they have an email relay service, too. They call them “email aliases.”

Damn great username btw 👌

She’s so fat that observers are really mostly seeing what she used to look like.
