It could be a Facebook profile entry!

That’s so hilarious and crafty. I love that.

In April of 2023, right-wing podcaster Steven Crowder announced that he and his wife, Hilary, were divorcing—an event, he explained to listeners of Louder with Crowder, to which he did not consent. She “didn’t want to be married anymore,” he said, “and in the state of Texas, that is completely permitted.”

Crowder, upset, lamented: “My beliefs don’t matter.”

Fuck you. You consent to be in a marriage, not out.

It’s also a laundering scheme to make free software proprietary.

Ah. I usually conflate the two under “internet archive”.

What’s the second?

Every now and then I see a parent having a tender moment with their child and I smile. I then reflect on whether my vasectomy/shirk of parenthood was the right choice.

I always come to the conclusion that it was. Perhaps when I’m older I will feel differently but I just can’t imagine that in my life for a long time.

[…] has no place in education other than its historic significance to the art of literature.

I don’t think it belongs as art in literature. It’s garbage, jumbled, mad texts. I’d say it belongs in studies of mythology or the analysis of our frail human minds to accept such idiocy for so long and so deeply.

Not to mention the other problematic ones that actively discourage subtlety in favor of dogma. It’s not automatically wrong if you covet something. Additionally, your parents earn your honor and respect, they shouldn’t be granted it unconditionally.

Brutal, cruel, sad. Makes me angry at the universe.

That Sikh has no business being that handsome.

I would seriously consider something like this since my computing job requires me to stare at a light bulb all day. Perhaps there’s a demographic that would spring for this in the same way there is for quality chairs.

TIL about the Great Filter. Thanks for the rabbit hole!

Oh yay! Happy times. The fdroid version doesn’t have that yet but I look forward to the update.

It is way way lighter weight and is overall a better experience. I use osmand for routing because the voice is much better tuned (OM just says barely-useful things like “turn left” instead of “turn left at Broadway”. I think both have their uses. If the voice was better I would use OM exclusively.

“Less traumatic than violent, ad-hoc suicide” perhaps?

I felt the same about BotW. At first I enjoyed the freshness and exploration but it quickly gave way to the sinking realization that it’s an empty world with smatterings of lifeless villages and MMO-style quests. Ew.

Recently cut, myself! Happy to have done so.

Yeah, normalize either being okay. Just like long or short hair. Diversity is the spice of life.

Considering the absolutely devastating performance hits 3.x brings (and the apparent design failures that make it extremely difficult if not impossible to reclaim it) I wonder if openssl’s days are numbered. WolfSSL seems to be favorable to the HAProxy team. Hopefully that can get some traction.
