Deploying it in Ukraine against Russia, or in Gaza against Israel would be brave.

Deploying it against his own civilians is cowardly.

Biebien and Hannah Montana Linux are affronts to god, whereas TempleOS is a tribute.

Are you having a stroke?

I tried cricket protein bars once and they made me shit like a horse. The chitin is not separated from the protein, and it is a LOT of fiber.

Throw Musk in prison for his many documented crimes, but don’t support this kind of dictator shit.

An old-timey duel to the death would be the logical solution to this problem

The only movie that legit made me cry was Seven Pounds with Will Smith. I only saw it once, and I tried real goddamn hard to suppress the tears, but a few leaked out. Luckily, none of the people I watched it with noticed, so my masculinity remained in-tact.

I’m asking as I’m trying to understand empathy and whether it’s normal to get so invested in fake characters,

Fuck yeah it is. It’s a beautiful thing to be so moved by something that it brings you to tears (especially art). It’s what makes us human: we’re not just mindless beasts trying to eat and fuck, we’re experiencing life to its fullest.

This is stupid. There’s no clear lines between capitism and communism, irl with regulations, shit always lands somewhere in the middle. If we look strictly at quality of life, capitalist-leaning countries win easily, even for the poorer countries (excluding the ones with actual slavery ofc).

Communism won’t save you from fascism.

Damn bro coke is the only one on the list that’s gonna hurt to cut.

But fuck them, this shit ain’t acceptable.

I’m drunk as fuck rn but the pub I went to had some bomb ass olives that tasted kind of like corn, and now I regret not asking what they were called.

Packaging desktop apps via deb (or other system package managers) is obsolete and should be frowned upon.

cue the angry comments from cranky old people

Didn’t the Trump admin suspend enforcement of foreign anti-bribery laws? Microsoft just has to write a check to the right person to kill this.

The problem is education. People know how to use Windows/Microsoft products, and are too lazy to learn anything else. Saying “that other thing sucks” is easier than admitting “Idk how to use that other thing, and I’m too lazy to learn”, especially in a corporate environment where you can’t climb ladders by acknowledging your own shortcomings.

Get LibreOffice/Nextcloud/etc into schools, and the problem will be solved in a single generation.

I have a new theory: Elon Musk is a habitual masturbator. He’s addicted to the fap, and is ashamed of it. His ketamine-flooded brain, in an attempt to square it with his inflated ego, came up with the nonsense theory that he has a duty to reproduce as much as possible by donating his sperm to gold digging women instead of his own protruding belly button. That’s probably why he tried to keep it a secret, because it’s something he’s ashamed of.

This is why grammar is important, and “grammar nazis” are the only good kind of nazis.

Don’t use drugs to solve a problem like this. You’ll just build a tolerance and solve nothing.

Look into strength training as others suggested. Start with bodyweight exercises before moving on to weights. It’ll take a while though as you’ll need to experiment to find what works, and ofc exercise isn’t an overnight thing.

Maybe also consult a physical therapist.

And if all of that is too much, running isn’t the only effective cardio exercise. Cycling, swimming and less obvious/weird ones like slideboard mountain climbers, which should all be easier on the knees

I don’t buy this argument. A single toothbrush lasts months, and a tube of paste can also last months if you’re careful with it… But even if you don’t, it’s one freaking dollar. You don’t even need to be a beggar to scrounge up a dollar, just walk through any public place and you’ll probably find enough coins on the ground.

poverty-induced anxiety messes with your brain.

Someone not brushing their teeth (or otherwise taking care of themselves) because of depression or some other mental illness is a whole different issue. It’s also not unique to poverty.

I used Java years ago for Android dev, but stopped when I stopped doing that. Every once in a while I’ll get the itch to work on a new project, and always wonder if Java would be a good idea.

My hesitance is that I don’t trust Oracle (and don’t know to what extent they’re involved nowadays), I’m not familiar enough with the ecosystem to know what is legacy crap to avoid, and I think it’s generally seen as an uncool language, and I’m way too cool to be taking such risks.

Sublime Text + sometimes LSP is all you need. It might be difficult for people who don’t know how to use a build system directly, but those people are underachievers anyways.

Poor people often can’t afford toothbrushes and/or toothpaste

… What? Is this sarcasm, or did you mean to say “completely destitute” instead of “poor”?

A quick search on Walmart right now shows a 4 pack of toothbrushes for $2.95 and individual tubes of toothpaste for $1.00.
