One successful launch and it will be up to $350. The stock market is illegitimate.

I started with Slackware in 96 then was on a friend’s Debian server in like 98. I lost the friend account so I switched to Ubuntu in like… 08 mainly because that’s what Digital Ocean offered in its prebuilt stacks, I didn’t really have an opinion. Switched to Linux on the desktop only last year, went with Mint since I’d gotten used to Ubuntu. I’m happy, don’t feel the need to do anything else really. I have a Steam Deck so obviously I’ve used SteamOS, not really a fan of the immutable thing.

I read this entire comment and I don’t regret it.

Worse than that, the printer I have, a Brother MFC-J895DW, actively eats its own ink on purpose (in the name of keeping it from drying out). Like most people, we print infrequently and I noticed that like every other time we would go to print we would be out of ink. After a bit of searching I found out this was a known thing and it was done on purpose.

I now turn the printer on to print and off when not printing. I haven’t bought ink in over a year. Yeah the print heads need to be conditioned if you go too long between prints, but so what.

What a load of bullshit.

Edit: This post is irony.

Yep not to mention that if you manage to have a good garden when SHTF you’re just the first target for the raiders.

There is an excellent, practical book about surviving economic collapse by someone who went through it in Argentina.

It’s more rigged than anybody wants to admit. It was down 500 today. It will be up 600 tomorrow.

In the kangaroo court in which a mob ousted me, Wikipedia’s administrators showed that they don’t appear to value details like formal charges, a designated prosecutor, basic decorum, distinction between prosecution and judge, dispassionate adjudication, and so forth

These hypocrite fucks always rail off at the mouth about how abused they are… and it’s always just to get their foot in the door. Once they run the show, they rewrite history, dole out all the abuse they want and face zero repercussions. Intolerant shits that the rest of us simply must tolerate. Well go fuck yourself Larry Sanger. The world doesn’t need more right-wing bullshit.
