There is a group actively working to open source Insulin manufacturing to make it practical to self produce.

The intersection of female Linux user and female YouTuber is very small, however there are female Linux user groups, which are much larger, who often meet at conferences. Might be something to look into.

Andrea Borman is interesting…

It’s for people who think the only thing holding them back from writing the next great novel is their TikTok addiction.

Most of these devices have the same fate as that new year resolution treadmill.

However the idea of running Linux on this form factor is interesting.

This is due to the way Reddit handles video. The video and the audio are two separate files that are combined by Reddit embedded media player. There are tools to combine them however I usually just go to the source to get the original instead or trying to pull it from Reddit.

Like Kevin Spacey?

In 2020 during the summer I was feeling pretty depressed due to obviously Covid but also my father dying and a lot of riots were happening nearby. I was generally not in a good place and wanted a change to get out of the rut I was in.

I decided to move into an apartment exactly like this but near the beach. When I say near I mean I could see the ocean from my window. It was exactly this size and configuration. It cost $900 a month back then.

The problem wasn’t as much the size as the people you live with. It attracts either young adults who want to party or older people with big life problems, like addiction, divorce, mental health issues.

The place I lived was an old wooden building so it was very easy to hear my neighbors. I didn’t sleep well the entire time I lived there…

The communal bathroom was constantly dirty despite having a service come in daily and they had laundry room that was constantly backing up and malfunctioning.

The same place today goes for nearly $2k. I lasted two months before moving into a slightly larger place with a private bath, a left after my lease was up a year later.

Living at the beach was great, but I’ll never live in a place like this again.

I am pretty confident you’re right about the origin. Ergodox wanted to add an additional macro key and needed a name for a less hyper Hyper key. Since then a couple other keyboard manufacturers adopted it. Much like its name, its history is also “meh”

I haven’t seen many references to Reason, and previous to this story I had not heard of them before. Most of the stories I am seeing are sourcing the mother. She seems to be doing a lot of interviews.

I never made claims regarding knowing the full story. Not sure anyone can know the full story until the other parties start talking. I was only responding to the claim that the story should be dismissed because of the source, and claims of what the sources motivations are.

I am supportive of reserving judgement for when more information comes out. I am just not supportive of jumping to the conclusion that because the linked article is from a questionable or biased source that it is automatically dismissed as fabrication and/or propaganda. Especially when there is so many organization who seem to be in defense of the mother.

As a middle aged father of two grown boys, one of the things I wish I had done better was encourage them to go out on their own more. Their mother would always be so worried, and knowing she has the best intention for them I would give in.

Also there was a couple of years when they were young I would try to force them to go outside and play, but they would quickly become bored and come back in the house. This was so frustrating at the time and then I realized that there were no other kids playing outside either. When I was growing up in the 80s and early 90s, I practically lived outside with my friends.

My boys are significantly more dependent on us, much less capable and their development seems stunted or slowed, which I am sure is partly due to the pandemic, but also due to the sheltering that has become normalized in our culture. Allowing this to happen is one of my biggest regrets as a father, which all things considered I guess isn’t that bad while keeping things in perspective.

I have absolutely no doubt in my mind that the abundance of information has a side effect of over protectiveness. This makes some sense as it would be evolutionarily beneficial to protect against potential threats, however media is tricking our brains to believe that these threats are both abundant and persistent.

Children need unsupervised freedom as part of their development, it allows them to learn how to navigate the world in a healthy regulated way, and how to deal with challenges, like problem solving or social interaction. The perception that the world is a dangerous place that children need constant protection from is flawed. If that were true, we would have never have survived as a species.

This is why you check the story against multiple sources. Just search “brittany patterson georgia” and you will find this has gone viral and there is tons of outrage over this.

Ah alright. My point is OP is asking what can be done in other distros that can’t be done in Mint and your answer was have the entire configuration be in plain text. I completely agree that if you want that kind of reproducibility NixOS is the most refined, well established, and best way to handle this. However to answer OP I would say this is possible in Mint but just much more painful.

Why not? Isn’t this the whole concept of Bash Script, Ansible, Terraform, etc… I mean it can be as simple as a git repo that pulls down an install script then syncs your dot files. What am I missing? If you’re referencing Nix, you can also have that on Mint.

Am I so old that I am misremembering or is this meme like 25 years old. I feel like I saw this image in the late 90s or early ‘00 slowly load over my 56k.

I think this kind of thing is great. The policies and procedures that have been developed for the internet are going to have flaws. The internet was/is a new technology in the big picture. You can’t expect the first few drafts of how to run it to be perfect. There are going to be exceptions, edge cases and inconsistencies in any system designed to run indefinitely. This is a bug, IANA will turn it into a feature.

Read my many other replies. That’s not my point, not what I am saying. Maybe I said it poorly but I am saying that people don’t bother to learn about the people they are so offended for.

People are screaming racist about a guy who does this for over a decade as a living. This is a Tuesday for this guy, nothing new, nothing shocking. It’s like being offended that a butcher kills animals, it’s in the name, he tears people down for money.

The republican party does this shit daily, this isn’t even the worst thing that group has done this week. The difference is this comedian is paid to make this shit up while everyone else actually means it.

What I have a problem with is people being offended on behalf of the people of Puerto Rico, because it smells of fake virtue. Like when people are offended at school shootings but nothing changes. Because PR has been suffering for a century and no one in the US cares or even bothers to learn the fundamentals of their culture, like for instance that Puerto Rican is a nationality, not a race. A huge amount of Americans don’t even realize it’s a part of US and that they are citizens.

Yet a mediocre roast comic makes some inappropriate jokes and now it’s time to pay attention to PR. I don’t buy it, a month from now no one will remember and PR will continue to be the bastard step-child of the US.
