Found it

Easier to say with hindsight, there is literally a gif of him flashing people on a red carpet event but no one batted an eyelid at the time.

I use gentoo on my main PC and debian on an old Thinkpad.

Debian is solid as a rock provided you don’t edit the sources to make it a “FrankenDebian” where it is pulling in more recent packages like Ubuntu.

I had multiple friends who dressed like him and used his affectations during his peak popularity in the noughties. No SA’s though fortunately.

Looking back it was pretty much like a license to act more camp in public.

I work at a big company that advertises often at big events. We have internal discussions about making the ads less obnoxious.

Personally I get sleep paralysis almost weekly. It’s always disembodied voices as opposed to incubus’ or succubus’ (I wish!)

Accidentally doxxed myself the other day on IRC by repeating my Dad’s favourite dream anecdote. A psychicatrist (or philosopher depending on when he tells it) has a dream that he’d invented the funniest joke of all time, was famous and doing tours of SNL and others just telling the joke. He woke up in the night remembering it and it was just gibberish when he looked in the morning. I said I wasn’t sure if my Dad had just made it up. Someone looked for sources online and the only source was my Dad’s blog which had pictures of me at my wedding on it. Trying to keep this vague to avoid doxxing myself again. My life is basically Big Fish where my Dad loves to tell tall tales like this. Fortunately not too affected by this foible unless I mention it online. Looking forward to seeing the psychiatrist/philosopher at his funeral to be proved wrong like the end of that movie.

Much better after the England game at Murrayfield

Egyptian Lover had a few hits back in the day

Aside from bug/issue spam where maintainers are stuck dealing with bogus problems raised by LLMs and posted by lazy humans, I don’t think there ought to be an issue. Maintainer burnout is no joke though; a bad day topped off with a bogus bug report might be the straw breaking a camel’s back.

The other issue is licensed code with stricter copy left protections can be stolen for training data and unwittingly regurgitated into a code base elsewhere. Unfortunately this would require lawyers to actually bring these cases to court, which is not happening at the moment. Seems more manageable as an issue though since there is a path to resolving it. I think I need to make an EFF donation to help with that process.

Merry Sixmus to all who celebrate

Dirty bastard

Kind of similar with Ank.Spon. just been prescribed biologic drugs but waiting for an appointment to receive them.

Was originally having dicofenac with is an NSAID like ibuprofen but stronger - wasn’t working - so they bumped me up to etoricoxib but got side effects from that like an upset stomach so was advised to stop.

They hold off on the biologics because they are super expensive and only the NHS can dole them out. Apparently they originally designed them for Parkinsons disease but turns out they are a miracle cure for Ank.Spon. Fingers crossed it works out! Would like to be able to get out the flat more often, even going to the office like 3 days a week.

Glasgow vs Munster rivalry is quality. Love watching those teams play.

I was just implying that people in the Greens have a reputation for being assosicated with cannibis legalisation so I thought the headline was funny.

My personal policies are actually the opposite of what will likely be on the Green manifesto however I like the man as a person, and respect him. To my eye he seems to have the X-factor that the public seem to engage with, backed up by a consistent set of beliefs and a vision.

Depending on how strong his vision is, I might be tempted to vote for him regardless of my personal policy preferences because vision has been missing for a long time in UK politics.

Like the guy but he leads the Greens FFS lol

Edit: Left the comment first thing and realising now the phrasing is ambiguous. Should have read:

“I like the guy but I’m skeptical he has never tried drugs given that he leads the Greens lol”

Hard to take a hard moral stance while consuming any FIFA product tbh. The phony prize is par the course for them.

WRT Trump’s America being hosts, I think the most you can really ask of people is that they don’t visit and drop a bunch of money into the US economy.

But if I hop on that e-peen then maybe it won’t decide to take my job /s

I use IRC everyday. In particular the #<linux_distro>-chat channel on IRC.

We can’t know for sure. My point was that logically they’d be following what their internal polling / researchers are telling them.
