That’s what I got for being lazy, utterly unusable.

I lied.

Ibidikis is my new username.

Let’s pack it up boys, he cracked it.

Would you like some toast? Some nice hot crisp brown buttered toast.

Wow, that’s so stupid. Absurdistan looks more and more like a documentary.

Is it just me or does this “leak” looks just like another marketing tactic?

1.4k stars, 83 forks. That’s some good shit.

I have had few phones over the years, few of them I damaged by using them in bad conditions, mainly on construction sites.

As far I can remember I have never cracked the screen. Phones are and always were fragile, its a piece of condensed technology, with large glass screen. What do people expect from glass dropped from 1m? Just take care of your shit.

It always amazes me how can people cary their phones in back pocket or just throw it in the bag with keys or other sharp objects.

I have stopped watching regular TV about 6 years ago. We now have internet TV, occasionally I watch something if I want to, but only if I can skip ads.

My SO sometimes watches on commercial channel and leaves the ads unskipped, so I counted: 10 minutes content, 10 minutes ads, that on repeat for hour and a half. I get it, those channels live from advertisements, but does it realy have to be 1/1?

Yeah, it worked much better than our current USB bluetooth dogle that lags every 30 seconds. Just because we could not get radio wit cassette player. I still have the cassette adapter.

I work from home, IT, 8-10 hours sitting, programming. If I ate five meals a day I’d weight a ton in few months.

Fasting helps me keeping the callory intake down. First meal at 3-6pm then some snack in the evening, keeping sugar intake low. If I eat in the morning I feel bloated and sluggish + at around 2pm I feel tired.

Not eating keeps me fresh.

Maybe he just does not want to TOUCH the unmanly bodywash. Try offering him that you will be applying it. And you save water too.

But does it make you hungry for apples?

Make pop.

That happened to me few times, once GPU driver update, once grub update, both relatively easy to fix by searching the error on Endeavour forums and reading their official updates. And both of these issues was me not reading the update notes.

And when I was once forced to reinstall it was matter of an hour at most to have PC with working environment up and running, thanks to separate home mount and keeping all my installation notes in one place.

But one can do that with Ubuntu too.

I learnt one lesson from my manny distro-hopping sessions in the last 12 years, allways separate home from system amd keep all essential installation scripts and files in one place.

Just wait when you try AUR on arch systems. I was long time ubuntu based user but once I tasted rolling release and AUR I don’t want to go back.
