Yes a lot of people compared it to exercise. But that's something I don't do either unless it's on my own terms. I know it would be good for me to work out an hour per day but I don't. I just can't bring myself to i

I do. The night temperatures are similar here. Days a lot hotter of course. But most people I know run it mainly during the day, as it's cheaper on a dynamic contract (and basically free if you have solar panels). The heating during th

I don't think anyone here moralises Aircon. It's something that's most used during periods of sun so it's really mostly powered by renewables. During the times of high ac usage there's always an energy surplus from

Maybe but I've just not been able to make it work. I get that in other ways though.

This is exactly what the OP and I argue against, people insisting that it must be good for everyone. By the way the 'painful' part does more heaviy lifting there, not the boring. I've really tried a LOT during therapy and in

For me it just doesn't work but everyone is different, that's my point. And the relaxation is a prerequisite for having control.

I wonder if these btop fixes got into the standard ports collection? Or even upstream? I like the command for viewing the ARC cache size, never knew that. It's only 2GB on my system (of 64GB RAM).

There's very little decent work though. If you live there you're either fully remote which is rare these days, or you work in the tourist industry.

And tax payers of course! It's not a bad idea at all.

My ex is an immigrant from a poor country and she does this kind of job, like driving uber. For a middle man who provides the car so it's not very lucrative. Doesn't mean you're automatically underclass. In her whole family n

That you consider immigrants to be automatically part of an 'underclass' is very telling of the stigmatisation of asylum seekers. Some of them are doctors and scientists especially from places like Syria.

Which is a direct result of the right-wing conservatives complaining about them taking locals' jobs. There are some exceptions like for Ukrainian refugees. By the way this is only during the validation of their asylum-seeker status. On

It is because it is all bad at least to me.The right has crossed so many red lines for me that it's just no longer possible to work with them.

Ignoring problems until they become too big to pooh-pooh away is how we got into the climate crisis. And some countries are still pooh-poohing it away.

Yes but it's the same EU that mandates this. If they can mandate interoperability they will just mandate their backdoor at the same time

True they did in the end but my point is, nothing bad happened. Like, why did America even get involved in that shit anyway? It was a French problem (and really, it was fair they wanted to kick the French colonisers out).

Yes this is indeed a problem. But this is even more reason to keep private conversations private. It will stop those LLMs learning your footprint from your private conversations. It's an interesting thing what you're saying. I&#x2

Well no but that has some other reasons outside the fragmentation. Businesses in general hate the MIT license because anything they contribute can be used by their competitors without opening the source. I personally like this about FreeBSD
