Why not leave it open? Haha, I’m just finding this thread a month later and would like a shirt…

Does this book really exist?? Asking for a friend. The friend is my 3yo kid.

The “joke” is that it’s an issue that people feel compelled to comment on, but the sleeping person can’t. Predictably, most people are blowing straight past this and commenting their opinions, but most of the other replies are joking or whimsical. Yours is straightforward no-nonsense. If I had to guess, I’d say that’s why you’re being singled out.

With a splash of “that’s not a knife… THIS is a knife”

There’s something inherently satisfying about the oppressed/harassed/accosted person who whips out a bigger stick and shuts that shit down.

No

Is fondant a cake?

Hell yeah now Linux and I both will panic in style

Ridiculously unfunny and eventually a commercial

Putin would never ban X in Russia, are you crazy?

“Hmm yes, banning my best propaganda tool. This is the move.” - Not Putin

Hell yeah brother let’er rip!

I got halfway through your comment but when you typed “webstraunt” like it was actually a word I stopped reading and started thinking about how I’d cut off all your fingers so you couldn’t type such a festering abortion of a word again

Wow dude, he said “webstaurant” which is the domain name of a website and a portmanteau of web and restaurant. Do extremely common literary devices often give you violent thoughts? Maybe consider therapy or something, damn.

All depends on what you collect, how it’s stored, how transparent you are about it, and how easy it is to opt out of. It can definitely be done well.

I thought I’d give this a shot, but the metrics/data collection flag was turned on by default and when I added a command to my docker-compose to turn them off, it was ignored. Then, I created an account and looked for a way to turn them off in the settings and there was none. You expect people interested in self-hosting OSS to be cool with sending data out of their network every time the server is started, a memo is created, a comment is created, a webhook is dispatched, a resource or a user is created?! Also, the metrics are collected by a 3rd party with their own ToS that could change at any time?

Holy hell, hard pass. I’d rather use a piece of paper.

Which is another reason everyone in charge is scared of remote work. The divide is what keeps this ridiculous political shitstorm going. I say this as a techie Texan with a permanent WFH job who used the pandemic as an excuse to move out of the city. The small town I live near now has slowly transformed from a typical R-voting small Texas town to a purpleish LGBT friendlyish badass mixed community. We still voted for that stupid pee-baby Abbott, but change is definitely in the air…

20 years ago I asked my dad this and he said it was because if you pass on the right and then try to merge back into the left lane, any mistakes force you (or the other car) into oncoming traffic.

This is where Neal Stephenson got the idea for Seveneves. Fact. Don’t bother verifying.
