  Ah, so you’re just heartless and/or conservative, got it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Comfy cozy⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  You mean aside from attacks on trans people, immigrants, citizens who they suspect are immigrants, starting to make a list of autistic people (probably to put us in camps later), wrecking the economy, taking away entitlements to give to his rich cronies, and emboldening white supremacists and neonazis with his audible nazi dog whistles and general behavior?

  Yep, and sometimes you’re just not cut out for the needs of your kid.

  That’s unfortunately where I am. I love my kid, but fuck if they don’t want to make me want to run out for a pack of smokes and a gallon of milk some days (jk mostly)

  What kind of “real world load” are you putting on your trimmer? Mine barely ever gets caught in hair, and when it does, the hair gets cut before it can apply any meaningful amount of force to the trimmer guard.

  Be somewhat honest with the kid. Let him know you love chatting with him, but you’re over sensory (or whatever your particular issue is at the time) at the moment and you can’t give him the attention he deserves right now, but you’d live to hear about it later.

  Kids are smarter and notice more than you think. Being honest and open about your issues is healthy for both of you, and helps show the kid it’s ok to not be in the mood to talk to someone and a kind/polite way to disengage.

  Was that supposed to be ‘did not meet your expectations’, or was your therapist on something that day? Cuz I have no idea how not being mad at expectations being met means they’re too high.

  I’ve tried bread containers (like boxes, but sealed plastic) and it was awful. I swear it went moldy faster in the thing than outside it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Let's put an end to the discussion; what is the best way?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m lawful neutral until I lose the bread clip and go chaotic neutral. Sometimes I’m lawful good the whole time, but I’ve been chaotic at the start and that’s fun!

  Damn, that’s a hell of a high effort response, thank you for the info!

  I’ll try another SilverBlue install, probably a bluefin variant you mentioned. It definitely sounds like I need to unlearn a lot of the info I’ve picked up over the years, including avoiding flat packs (or was that snap?). Not sure what toolbox is, but I expect I’ll have to look into that in due time.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨End of 10 is a campaign to move people over to Linux with Windows 10 support ending⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Any reason to go vanilla Debian and not a Debian based system like Ubuntu? I’m not looking to do much advanced on my desktop other than maybe some docker/bash/Powershell development, gaming, and basic browsing.

  I definitely am attracted to ‘it just works’, but I also want to make sure I’m not handcuffing myself with an os that makes it hard to play with it as well. I know those are at two ends of a spectrum, but worst case I have plenty of VMs to use to play if necessary.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨End of 10 is a campaign to move people over to Linux with Windows 10 support ending⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Funny you mention that, Silver blue was the first thing I tried (because I’ve used fedora off and on for over a decade) and something about it just didn’t work for me, but I don’t remember what. Didn’t try the regular version tho.

  In the end, I want something I can game on and dev with (which is the easy part, since VSCodium is multiplatform). If Steam doesn’t work, the install is getting torched (which is why Alma is getting the boot).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨End of 10 is a campaign to move people over to Linux with Windows 10 support ending⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Are you able to run windows in a VM for your software?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨End of 10 is a campaign to move people over to Linux with Windows 10 support ending⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Tried using Alma on my rig at home (since I’m using it on my servers), and I’m already going to be looking for a new distro. Went back to it after a week or so not having the energy to deal with it and apps like Firefox and steam wouldn’t launch.

  Need to find a decent OS to run in its place so I can stop booting to Win10

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Some retailers have broken Doom: The Dark Ages' street date, and huge spoilers are already out there [Eurogamer]⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I mostly agree, but then there are pieces of media like Memento where spoiling it changes how you watch the movie. Because you’re likely going to be looking for how they put the movie together to build up to that reveal at the end.

  The only thing is disagree with is the story. I thought it was alright.

  It was barely alright up until the end and you basically do a NewGame+ in the most boring and lazy way possible; go through this gateway to a ‘new dimension’ that’s exactly the same as this one. About the time I saw that I immediately quit and uninstalled. I couldn’t care less if there is a better story after you NG+ it however many more times, I couldn’t stand playing through that game again.

  I may never pursue the main mission. Looks kinda dumb.

  It very much is, and the ‘ending’ was enough for me to drop the game and uninstall it same day. I barely made it to the end, and goddamn was it not worth it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How can you tell 23 subgenres of equally shitty growls and screams apart, but not see the most Metal basics?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  [OP] called metal shitty growls and screams,

  To give the OP credit, even as a metal fan, they’re not exactly wrong. There are plenty of bands/genres that I try to listen to and come away thinking something to that effect.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anyone?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Lucky, they tried to do the same for me, but they didn’t get all of it. It’s rather annoying at times, but I’ll take it over the ingrown toenails.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anyone?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Idk exactly, but the root itself goes like an inch or so into your toe.

  Kinda like you, I’ve got random spots where the root grows and piles up, but since most of the root is dead, it’s only like one or two spots on the whole toe. One of them is bad enough that once a year or so it annoys/hurts enough that I remove the offending nail and end up pulling part of the root out. Looks like a newborn horn off of an animal lol

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anyone?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Is your toe nail completely missing, or do you still have some root growing? I have two that have a bit of root that just grows and gets uncomfortable until I pull it out. Not sure is trade the rest of my nails for that tbh

  Yes to ripping up roads for greenspace, not to removing sidewalks too.

  Make the citu green and walkable, and you solve so many problems in one go

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Generational differences⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  a super tiny crack pipe with a bowl that’s already half ash lol

  That used to be my normal until I switched to carts and my lungs have thanked my every hit for years. I know that flower tastes better, but the added shit that comes with smoke isn’t worth it IMO. Personal preference is personal and all that, but yeah, there’s probably part of the particular experience that you relate to and is nostalgic or some shit.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Shazam director swore he'd never do another IP-based movie again after "crazy" backlash from DC fans, but Until Dawn's script was just too good to pass up: "I had to do it"⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Ultimately a film is what the director creates. If the writing wasn’t good it’s up to them to figure something out how to improve it. If the producers try and force changes it’s up to the director to either make them fit or convince them otherwise.

  I will say, however, that even the best directors get fucked by bad editing. I mean, how many versions of Blade Runner are there (and how many of them are actually good)?
