Had me in the first half lmao

The Incredibles isn't Randian propaganda by any stretch. This interpretation is wildly missing the film's messages about society. Brad Bird, the director, called the "Ayn Rand" interpretation of the film "nonsense" and "ridiculous" in multiple interviews when this interpretation started getting parroted by people who didn't get the point of the film.

I think it got misinterpreted a few times. Some people said it was Ayn Rand or something like that, which is ridiculous. other people threw Nietzsche around, which I also find ridiculous. But I think the vast majority of people took it the way I intended. Some people said it was sort of a right-wing feeling, but I think that's as silly of an analysis as saying The Iron Giant was left-wing. I'm definitely a centrist and feel like both parties can be absurd.

Ah, that's funny, lol. I didn't finish watching this vid cause I decided to rewatch the slapping video when I recalled it a minute or two in.

Reminds me of this video from a while back where a guy cooks a chicken (and a steak) by slapping it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LHFhnnTWMgI

I'm in a similar boat to you; whether the blobs constitute a security threat seems to still be up in the air. I read through the issue thread on github a few months back and it seemed the vast majority of the blobs were built by scripts contained in the repository, but some weren't documented well, leading to uncertainty.

The comment by Long0x0 on Aug 05 lists a lot of the blob files.

It typically refers to any job where you're working overnight, like from midnight to 8AM.

Not my story, but one a friend told me.

Someone had the misconception that there was a huge, huge sector of labor dedicated to working in cemeteries in the USA. Like almost everyone knew at least one person who worked at a cemetery. This misconception arose due to the ubiquity of the term "graveyard shift" regardless of the actual job being performed.

I'm a fan of the classics: Parmesan, Cheddar, and Mozzarella, but my favorite changes depending on the dish. If it's cheese and crackers, Cheddar is my go-to. If I'm making a pasta dish, I tend to go with Parmesan and/or Mozzarella.

But my favorite cheese of all-time was a smoked ghost-pepper Gruyère that my wife got me from a local maker.

There’s no way to srsly prevent a full-bloat browser from messing with its environment.

Can you elaborate on this? I'm curious as to what manner a browser like Firefox could be exploited in order to affect its environment outside of something like a sandbox escape.

It's interesting to see some of the back-and-forth on this topic between different proponents of free software.

I listened to this talk by Linus Torvalds a while back and it relates to the GPL license used by the Linux kernel and why the kernel hasn't changed to GPLv3. Apparently Linus doesn't find this practice by Tivo and other hardware manufacturers to be an issue.

the difference between me and a liberal is im more then happy to take direct action. I’ll do whatever it takes to fight fascism [...] with the ballet box

in left wing circles most leftists only pretended not to vote

Not sure if you can have it both ways. How do you take "direct action at the ballot box" while also only pretending to withold your vote?
