No joke, I genuinely considered switching to geology after I learnt there were only 3 people in that major and they spent most of their time on field trips collecting rocks…

In blue at a funeral… 🙄

I think local businesses should still be allowed some form of advertisement, and also especially local cultural establishments to advertise what shows are currently running. In limited, dedicated spaces.

Otherwise, I agree. No more ads.

But the upside is they’re very helpfully signposting themselves now !

The only concern I’d have is ticks. Is there a way to get rid of them without going crazy with bug spray or destroying the plants ?

The extreme irony of course, is that the same kind of person who thinks school shootings don’t exist, is the kind of person who shoots up a school.

Great news ! Everything should be a non-profit, honestly.

I kinda wish I liked Mastodon, but I think the very format of Twitter-like social media was a bad idea from the start. Mastodon just feels like the least bad version of it.

I don’t think humans do well with access to a stream unfiltered, nearly-contextless random thoughts from other people.

That’s pretty cool !

If I had to do this myself, I would probably choose NixOS, so that I could write up a config on one of the PCs, and the deploy the exact same thing on every single one and be certain the build is perfectly reproduced.

Though I’m sure there are similar tools for other distros, but that’s what I know.

The one positive change in Windows 11 is the move away from monochromatic icons.

Having every program be a white outline on the same color background was always a stupid idea.

Seems like someone took DRY too far…

The authenticator itself is not supposed to use the same auth dialog than everything else 😅

A 70GB code base is not something that’s ever supposed to happen. Pretending that’s okay for any product is the actual madness here.

I guarantee you this is the sort of app that accidentally ships 3 full copies of Google Chrome.

Wait until you hear about “Release Candidate Males” and “Emergency Hotfix Males” !
