Thanks for the tip, but I have a follow up question. When is best to pour an oblation of goat's blood to the Dark Lord? Is it just as I'm defenestrating the laptop or while it is midway in its descent? I've heard that's

Ah bollocks, I've been shitposting using my work GH keys. Hopefully I don't get a surprise call from the boss soon.

In fairness they could save some RAM by rewriting it in Rust 6 or 7 times.

It's because Ubuntu Touch is actually meant to be used from the command line.

Lovely. This makes me feel even more comfortable with the amount of auto-playing video bloat on the web.

Every time I see the unfiltered web, it is a glimpse into how the 'other side' must live. It is surreal to imagine how anyone accepts this as 'normal' but somehow they manage to survive.

A lot of late 90s to early 2000s geeks had extremely strong opinions and didn't keep them to themselves. Less of it now. Compare the typical Reddit to old Usenet posts.

You can even install PowerShell for your command line and you'll feel right at home!

Absolutely. I was being sarcastic. I'm not fond of this rabid incrementation that originated with Chrome.

[sarcasm] I am looking forward to the days when we ditch memorable release versions and just use the git commit hash to identify a release. [/sarcasm]

My SNES still boots first time every time and it is inching towards 33 years old. I've never needed to open the case to maintain it. Meanwhile I went through two Xbox 360s in 4 years which RROD'd themselves. I know the hardware is

Someone ask it, how long has Oceania been at war with Eurasia? See if the Bard gives a different answer each time, insisting that it has always been the case.

Oh, it's definitely illegal in most every jurisdiction. I was never in the dark about that :P

That's a better word for it perhaps, if you see the act in a negative light. Even then, doesn't forgery entail presenting the work as if it were an original? It's not quite the same if I make a copy of something where 'o

> What ought to be has no relevance to what is Then why even argue? But that's besides the point. If a law is unenforceable, it doesn't really matter. You could create a law mandating everyone wear green socks on Tuesdays, and

Nothing to do with feelings, but logic. How is it theft if the original still exists? If I copy your words above verbatim and send it to a friend, is that theft? Your comment will still exist unless dang deems otherwise. It might be costly

That's the problem. A human body is not replicable in the same way that data or text is. The concept of ownership breaks down in the digital world. Storage is cheap, lives aren't.

Theft is a difficult charge to lay when it is a replication; a result of memcpy'ing something from one location to another. It might be something else, but it isn't the same as nicking your car keys or tunic.

We have hope on the horizon. The Ladybird browser won't look so out of place on classic UIs when it reaches maturity.

Very authentic! It even has a closed forum that's pending an upgrade. To complete the experience they could've linked to the forum but left in the PHP error messages.

I wasn't aware that was configurable (we were told SMS or Gauthenticator app), I wanted just a OTP code. I'd be delighted if that's really available. I'll chase it up with our admin. Thanks

I don't think you can quantify it in neat charts and numbers. But I suggest that the depraved individuals who consume such materials are already used to being outliers and willing to go to extremes to procure such materials, so in most
