I think it was 24-40, not 18. Soo yeah.

Yeah, that guy sucked. I have no fucking clue what the settings are on the deli slicer, and I’ve never had a deli person not just slice a bit and let me see if that’s what I wanted.

I think they might have vertically aligned to Newsom because there isn’t a good horizon in this photo, and trump is known to stand at an angle. I would have used the light post out of focus in the back, though.

Ubuntu has started going off the deep end. They’ve been heading in that direction for a while, but they recently (I guess like 5 years-ish ago) hit this corporatey, money-grabbing, mentality that’s so completely opposite of what made Linux great.

The feel I get about it is 10 years ago, tutorials were written using Ubuntu because it was an easy distro to use and was a great platform for beginners, so people used that as their platform to teach. Now it feels like tutorials are written using Ubuntu because they’re being sponsored to. A lot of how-tos I come accros have the same vibe as watching a video animation tutorial that uses adobe and oh gosh, it’s also sponsored by adobe. Or a networking tutorial sponsored by Cisco. I’ve actually started just looking to see if another distro is acknowledged before I actually see what they have to say.

There’s a very different feel if you’re trying to set something up and a website has “if you’re in this family of linux, here’s what you do, or if you’re in this one, do this” versus “so you want to set up x in linux? Here’s how you do it in Ubuntu”. It’s as if no other distro exists.

Anyway, ignoring that rant. Linux is super stable these days, you can take pretty much any distro and you’ll be fine. I tend to gravitate toward the base distros, like fedora, opensuse, and Debian over Rocky, mint, etc. I haven’t come across one in the past five years that gave me any trouble, except when it came to updated nvidia drivers and wayland. In which case some distros were behind a month or two on getting those updated.

There needs to be a crease in the cardboard in order for it to cause that effect. There’s no crease to this cardboard. It’s perfect except for the sloppy edge.

The cardboard is too perfect. It’s like the ai is trying to make the text look like it was written over a piece of cardboard box at the fold, but there’s no folds anywhere. Or texture, or gradient, or anything that would resemble a real piece of cardboard.

The cardboard is the most perfect large piece of cardboard I’ve ever seen. Yet it still was roughly cut to shape, and never folded.

If they’re journalists, no. They specifically should not step in.

New password week for me!

Hey, I think I’ve seen this one before.

…Dad?

I do bioanalysis without a sample management system. I recently had a 1000+ sample project with 6 analytes, all samples needing a few reanalyses due to everything in this whole project being complete shit.

I spent probably three weeks of time just tracking samples to figure out what needed what analysis through excel. It’s so painful knowing that a proper python script could do it in a few seconds.

It’s probably because Access fucking sucks, leaving excel as the only database adjacent program available to office workers. I would love to be able to use anything but excel on my projects. Hell, python and some CSVs would make my life so much easier, but I ain’t going through IT to let me have that, and it opens up a HUGE can of worms in my line of work if I start using homemade scripts. The execs can pay for a LIMS system if they want me more productive.

Similarly, if you go back even further into console and PC gaming history you can find some game that use what, looking back, would be considered terrible control layout and/or gameplay mechanics.

You can just say resident evil.
