Mistakes aren’t stupid, they are human. Hell we are even making our AI in our own image now…

Was using Ligma in the 80’s, glad to see it still in circulation.
Ligma balls / Ligma sweaty balls / Ligma sweaty (sports clothing you happen to be holding) e.g. Ligma sweaty socks

That is a great word
- Comment on TIL 1 week ago:
So the usage would be “I’m a bit spuddle today”? Or maybe “it’s a spuddle kind of day today” or maybe “I’m just going to have to spuddle my way through this”

- Comment on What are some FOSS programs that are objectively better than their proprietary counterparts? 2 weeks ago:
Weird, I have 100’s of thousands of files synced.
Been using it for years.
Linux, windows and Mac in the circuit. Never a problem that wasn’t user error.

Syncthing!
I don’t even know what to compare it to, I have been using it so long.

Na, peas and gravy is great.
- Comment on I can't believe it 2 weeks ago:
You are cooking them too long.
They are edible raw, so you only need to heat them through to go with your hot meal. They should still be firm and sweet when cooked.
Literally 2 min in boiling water, 3 if from frozen.
- Comment on Jack Dorsey would like to ‘delete all IP law’. 2 weeks ago:
Free are imagining a world with no IP protection.
- Comment on Jack Dorsey would like to ‘delete all IP law’. 3 weeks ago:
No. If there is no IP protection, Amazon will just be able to take people’s work.
- Comment on Jack Dorsey would like to ‘delete all IP law’. 3 weeks ago:
Totally agree, but removal is not a good option.
- Comment on Jack Dorsey would like to ‘delete all IP law’. 3 weeks ago:
Because Amazon stole it, made a copy available for 1/10 the price.
The marketing power of Amazon is 10’s of thousands of times greater than the original author, so you probably never hear that the book you are interested in has an author that is different from the one Amazon puts on the cover, who is a pen name of their “AI author”.
Note: I think IP law is a bit shit really, but removing any protection from creative works is dangerous, and extremely short sighted. If you don’t want to reward the corporations, learn to pirate…piracy is far more ethical than calling for the removal of IP law.

I believe it is called Liquid democracy
- Comment on Trust your training 1 month ago:
Take another moment to realize how shit Paw Patrol is.
- Not challenging, has clear cut good/bad dynamic. Bluey doesn’t have "bad guys"
- PP is fairly inclusive.
- Almost not emotional depth, everyone is always in a good mood.
- Started off fairly grounded, but then power scaling for no reason.
- Repetitive and boring.
- What the fuck is up with dogs being intelligent enough to do the PP things, but also being subservient to humans? The whole dynamic is so fucked, Bluey doesn’t have humans at all.
I only compare them because the are both dog based kids shows. But PP sucks
- Comment on Inching closer to the grave every day 1 month ago:
Na, being 40 is fine. I’m 45, eat well and get a little exercise. I am healthier than I was in my 20’s, I have more stamina and I think more clearly.
- Comment on Inching closer to the grave every day 1 month ago:
Just remember folks, those 2007 people are able to vote now.
