About one-fourth of a top-tier professional video card, or a whole -almost top-tier- consumer card. Or a relatively decent factory-made classical guitar. That being said I’d probably go for a extrawide capo to fit my ten-string instead. And then buy coke with the remaining 950$. Regular, not diet

Damn, same here. Couldn’t have described the feeling of marinating in your sheets filthy better than you have

What a story. You weren’t able to move for three weeks ?

…and this guy peed on it !

He’s crackin’.

Damn that is hardcore

Yea I suppose if you consider your significant other to be a filthy kuffar doomed to wade through lava for the rest of time… that relationship is going to be a ride

who needs tinder when there’s lemmy ?

Yea I kinda get the same feeling. Although for a lot of people their religion does not preclude the acceptation/understanding of a physical world, it’s a more of set of rites that they inherited and that’s part of their identity. There’s plenty of religious people who are scientists. For some, it may be difficult to reconcile

My wife was a freeform muslim when we met and we learned a lot from each other, then again she’s a very flexible and tolerant being. I was and still am pretty much agnostic I guess. No strong opinion… no horse in the cosmic race

not every country has a nuclear arsenal

Perhaps if you ran Linux you’d be less crankyyyyy

Of course they fucking grab it. They have 45 backdoors with golden handles otherwise they’re show the fucking source

No, I have never seen that anywhere. That being said I have not visited the US nor most of the other countries. I am a french citizen and although I have witnessed the odd little french flag hung up in gardens (very uncommon, but I’ve seen it) the prevailing sentiment in France seems to be a certain pride in gastronomy, sports and sometimes sciences, and a general tendency to criticize most governments. Rightly so, I think.

I don’t think hivemind is a bullshit concept. It’s another word for gregarian behavior. The observed dominance of a single point of view, amplified by the underlying system of upvotes that brings a visibility bias to already popular points of view.

Isn’t that what we call the hivemind ?

Yes, as much as I dislike the increasingly moralist culture on there, it still has a bunch of great contributions, if you care to sift through the awful interface. Sadly it’s got achievements now, which in my experience were so far confined to games. It’s not something I want popping in a corner of my monitor completely unprompted while I am trying to focus on an insightful comment. Not the kind of thing you get with free software… my last experience with Linux was Fedora 20-something, one which I aim to reiterate now, fifteen years later, that Wayland has improved to the point of letting me use my hardware to its full potential (drawing tablet, multiple monitors, etc). I’ve already installed Mint on my wife’s laptop, which she enjoys very much (because it gets out of her way), and I think I might go for Fedora again for my workstation later this year, or maybe Manjaro, who knows.

Classic liberal or social liberal ? (=american or european ?)

Never a day passes without one
