This is why I always unplug the other drive before I install Linux, because the one time I didn’t I couldn’t boot the other OS anymore.

I didn’t format the wrong drive, but the Linux installer automatically detected the existing EFI partition and just overwrote it. Luckily, that was the only issue and I was able to recreate the EFI partition, and it taught me a lesson that I will never forget.

Is the site down? Keeps timing out for me.

Come to Canada, the weed is legal

“Full keyboard” as in you need a number pad? Are macro keys also a requirement?

Practically any keyboard made in the last decade should be plug and play.

God forbid we actually rehabilitate people instead of profiting off of their enslavement and not actually giving a shit if they get better or not.

I’m in Canada, those places are all within a kilometre of me rn

A&W burgers are so basic, they’re almost bland.

Dairy Queen, Fatburger, Five Guys, Burger’s Priest - they all easily clear A&W burgers.

Chubby chicken is gas tho.

I’m sorry, but that is an instance of separating the art from the artist, I really don’t care.

Don’t you tell me what I am isn’t

Vivaldi isn’t entirely open source, if that matters to you.

Brave would be my recommendation, I just disable the crypto stuff.

Please submit a third copy of that letter, but replace Windows with iOS, PC with iPhone, Microsoft with Apple, and Edge with Safari.

Get some cheap carabiners and use one for each style/color/whatever.

The miracle of creation

I saw a video on this exact topic a while ago, it was pretty interesting. Not enough to make me move off Arch (BTW), but I could see it used on some old hardware if I felt like tinkerin’.

FOR THE COMMONWEALTH

Sick Emo Philips reference, bro.

Get a cheap VPS on digital ocean, and make a wireguard tunnel from there to your server. Then you don’t need any open ports on your home network

A laser would work better. Over vast distances, a giant mirror would eventually scatter the light, not to mention would be super inaccurate.

Speaking of inaccurate, even if we could shine a mirror or a laser, it could be millions of years until that light reaches any other civilization, then they would have to travel millions of lightyears to reach the point of origin of the “smoke signal”.

I say “point of origin” and not “Earth”, because our galaxy would have also travelled far from the spot we were in when we fired our laser. The Milky Way travels at over 2 million km/h, so even in a measly million years, that puts us over 2 trillion km from where we started.

You can probably see where this is going.

I’m of the mind that we are undoubtedly not alone in the universe - the sheer scale and endlessness of it tells us that there are an infinite number of possibilities. There most likely are other worlds that formed and evolved in the exact same manner as ours, maybe even under conditions so perfect as to cause them to follow the exact same path as us.

Though the unfortunate truth is, we probably will never encounter another species. There could be an infinite number of ourselves, but we are forever separated by the ever expanding breadth of space and time.

It’s part of a lyric from an Arabic song that was featured in some viral Tiktok videos, most notably this one

It became sort of a filler word, but mostly think of it as being synonymous with “cool”
