Art School Confidential and Napoleon Dynamite are pretty good snapshots of the Xennial generation

I only saw a couple of his videos, but he seemed like a genuinely good person. R.I.P.

That may be so, but “Just Hanging Out With My Family” is a stone cold banger of a song that must be played every time I hang out with my family.

I have over 20,000 bookmarks that I saved going all the way back to the 90s. I’ve been integrating tagging ever since del.icio.us was launched.

I would love to check this out. How does this work with expired domains?

Complete darkness. Black out curtains on windows. Remove anything that has a light. I can see the tiny LED light on a charging cable through my eyelids. I fall asleep so much faster after getting rid of all light sources.

No alcohol. Drinking would make me fall asleep easily, but I would wake up in the middle of the night and couldn’t fall back asleep for 1 to 2 hours every time.

neofetch is deprecated. There are several alternatives like fastfetch.

I think you’re in the wrong classroom. Government abortion-clinic cellphone tracking software is next door.

Thank you, Ward Christensen. RIP. I was just commenting on another thread earlier today, recounting my nostalgia for dialing into a small BBS after school and talking to my friends.

I am still running an FX-8320 and it’s fast enough for everything that I need it for. It baffles me to see people arguing about the differences between different Ryzen CPUs.

I received a chain e-mail saying that If I mail the person who sent me this $1 and forward the e-mail to all my entire contact list, I will be a millionaire. There are hundreds of email addresses in the body of this email from all the forwards that have happened before it was forwarded to me. How cool! Unrelated: how are all these spammers getting my email address? I only gave it to all my friends and family. And my friends/family only send me cool chain emails and funny jokes. e-mail is a new technology, so surly they will fix this spam problem by the year 2000.

Seriously, as an IT person, I still never know what most of my USB ports are capable of, but I’m glad they are backwards compatible. If something is slow, then I try a different cable and port.

Microsoft’s loss of cloud data for the Sidekick phone was one of the biggest disasters in cloud computing history.

REFUSED!!! I discovered them way too late. They were a band ahead of their time!

Screeching Weasel, NOFX, Pennywise, No Use For A Name, Rancid/Greenday for introducing me to punk.

I’ve lived in a house that has a Black Widow problem for 14 years. I had severe arachnophobia when I moved here. Unfortunately, I don’t use poisons in my house, so my only option was to kill them by hand. The first several years, I would do regular patrols of my garage and yard at night to squish them. Night is the best time to kill them because they will usually sit in the middle of their nests. If they are not in the nest, I can usually find a bug to throw in the web that draws them out quickly. I had a favorite tool for the job, but anything screwdriver-ish will work. I know all their favorite spots, so it doesn’t take long to do a sweep. I also destroy the egg sacks.

I realize that without covering my house with poison, I will never be rid of them. More than anything, I just try to keep my floors and yard tidy with less spots for them to call home. Luckily, I have never seen one in the house other than a few juveniles. I think there is no food in the house for them, so the small ones that get in the house end up starving.

Most people go with poisons, so I thought I would pop in with my weirdness. Don’t worry about it too much. But also take precautions like not leaving your shoes where they could get in. And inspect boxes that have been in the garage before bringing into the house.

I was the same. I also avoided any Kpackage because of kdependencies it would install along with it.

I was shocked when my Linux Guru recommended KDE whenever it was that Plasma got really good. I reluctantly tried it and I was hooked. I was in love with the infinitely user configurable UI. I felt like I could easily bend the interface to do what I wanted. It’s been many years now and it’s hard for me to use anything but KDE. I even tried to give Plasma Mobile a go on my Pine Phone.

I’m glad you found this stick. I need help reaching something approximately that distance away. Let’s get in touch!

8/10. I would definitely find a use for this stick on an adventure.
