@sarvo @davidhunterwalsh also it’s as stable as a two-legged stool

@DeveloperMemes also, Linus says he names all his projects after himself.

@stux it’s a little strange to see her on something other than Numberphile. Really cool video.

@stux I, uh, locked myself out of it. With 2FA, yes. But not recently; years ago when I changed phone numbers and forgot to update the account first. Didn’t care enough to go prove my identity to Twitter support, then or now.

@stux I knew those were big snakes, but I don’t think I had the right perspective before. :blobcatsweat: Not normally scared of snakes, because a python wouldn’t bother me, but that gives me the heebie-jeebies.

@stux but it’s like he saw the bad guys’ vision for the OASIS and thought, “yeah I’m just going to cut to the chase.”

@stux so I’ll start some actual discussion and say that’s about not having an official state religion, wherein only members of that religion can hold government office. It has never been about public officials having no religious views or not shaping policy based on their views.Everyone has beliefs (see every reply to OP) and it is unreasonable to say they can’t act according to those beliefs.

@stux on the other hand, I doubt you’d like it if I just showed up one day to live under your bed. And if I did, I imagine you may have house rules that I don’t want to follow. Nation-states and their different laws are basically private property rights in the large. The problem such feel-good, big-happy-family rhetoric is that we are a deeply dysfunctional family. Boundaries are very important for personal well-being just like borders are necessary for civic well-being.

@stux am I the only person annoyed that he captioned his own voice, but not hers when she’s harder to hear?

@alejandrobdn as someone who uses NixOS, but not Arch, why didn’t the game change for them too? Is it just that *everything* is an Arch package already? :blobcatThink:

@bonifartius @urusan seconded. It’s FOSS, very powerful, and fairly standard for the hypervisor-as-regular-program space (as opposed to xen or KVM)

@lowqualityfacts um, excuse me, this is a high quality opinion, and I feel deceived by your user name. I need you to stop or I might think I’m not the most important person in my own head.

@kaia alas, my college choir went on tour in Italy, and they can tell you it’s still very potato country. Everyone but me was sick of having potatoes at every meal by the end of two weeks.

@colinsmatt11 @urusan indeed. Custard, ice cream, and gelato are all made of the same three basic ingredients (plus flavorings) just in different proportions.

@Piejacker875 @gardiner_bryant *today* it does. Spacesuits have been around at least 60 years. Surgery drones are probably less efficient in terms of volume, mass, energy expenditure, and maybe even production costs, still. Which isn’t to say the situation can’t change, but there’s some catching up to do.

@futurebird what is “weatherman cosplay” in this context, and how does that get one of a watch list?

@futurebird oh yeah, that would do it. I hadn’t heard of that group before, or forgot I had, so missed the reference entirely.
