It’s a tough world where “ear rape” strictly falls into the “being an asshole” category.

> don't joke about rape Where do you draw the line? Are jokes involving death also out of the question? I’m not a big fan of rape jokes, but is there some specific list of things which are unacceptable to joke about in 2020?

How come? All I see is loads of unnecessary fluff. I for one find xmonad & co extremely pleasant to use even if there’s a slight learning curve. I really don’t see what Cinnamon, Gnome & co. have to offer (except to users who aren’t

AFAICT Sweden refused to interview and indict Assange as long as he remained in the embassy. If that’s true then IMO “charges were dropped” isn’t putting it a bit strongly. Also AFAIK Swedish prosecutors wanted to drop these charges in 201

Yup, sleep well and have a shower right before landing. Rather easy (depending on the route), but could be expensive depending on how valuable your time is. Doesn’t even always have to be first, lots of airlines have excellent product in bi

I run xmonad on Debian bullseye with 5.5.3-grsec kernel, it’s definitely snappy. There’s no perceptible input lag, even when testing using the iPhone slo-mo thingy. I mostly use Chromium, electrum, signal-desktop and urxvt. Everything goes

That’s clever, but still leaves a significant edge case. I’d hazard to guess that 101-year-olds don’t travel very much and are therefore rather likely to be forced to get new passports for this specific purpose. (But perhaps the home office

Which is bizarre, Assange just hates the US in general. Of course he’d want the least competent people running the country. He’s much further left than any US democrats.
