They throw buzzwords at venture capitalists in hopes of one day selling out.

More like the movie sucked and her genocidal views didn't help the matter. Get your head out of your ass.

I wonder if that site pings an IPv6 address on the virgin network and updates the output automatically based on the ping result.

Oh man.
One = chill small little fire.
Two = big fire, no one's getting cold.
Three = call the fire department cause we're about to start throwing big shit on this flame.

Coming from a non-US centric point of view: I generally believed in the idea that the government does everything it does for the good of an entity. Sometimes that entity is the people (legality of cannabis), sometimes it is one person (presidential pardons) and sometimes its a company (bailouts). We can argue how 'good' any of these actions actually are, but thats beside the point. I always knew there were backdoor deals and some companies or some people got special privileges (corruption). But that was always behind closed doors. Rarely did it leak to the public stage and when it did, news coverage and accountability followed (usually).

However you may feel about government, it generally works on the principles of law. The ideal was; If you followed the law, you had the same opportunity as anyone else doing it.

I still can't comprehend how Trump completely flipped this around. There is no semblance of just democracy and unjust corruption anymore. Giving the president actual gold in exchange for an exemption of law while openly broadcasting it. The ideal is broken and shattered on live TV. Justice is now blind because Trump is pissing on her face and she cant look at his limp dick anymore.

Never used them in my life and I've been machine computing over 25 years. Always one monitor, one desktop. I close shit I dont need regularly, I click on icons on the tab bar to get to the app I need. The tab bar is wide enough to hold like 30+ of them. Why do I need more than one desktop? Windows go over another, the tab bar shows everything I have open. Why switch? I never got it.

I think that was just the 90s.

Yeah, I didn't know that. I'm glad I'm protected for longer. Thanks modern medicine!

 

My little nuc server. Had to change some bios configs today so I busted out the old LCD and since it was there already, did a package update for the hell of it.
