Meanwhile people driving multi-tons vehicles are not coming to a complete halt at every stop sign and it’s completely fine. People in cars are important. They have places to go. Not like those idiots on bikes that may start ahead on a red light not to get hooked by a car turning right.
Look at all those damn people on bikes not stopping at stop signs:
No thanks, I’ll keep pedaling.
I am fortunate enough to know how to set up VMs and use Linux, so I run my own IRC server with a web interface (TheLounge). I can set the upload limit to what I want and settled for 100MB. This way my friends and I are not at the mercy of some proprietary software.
I do pay for a dedicated server that I also use to host my games’ servers and also a mumble server, but it’s so worth it, just to have control over our stuff.
In Québec there is a moving company that has been using the same jingle and phone number for decades. Ir’s really catchy and sticks in your head.
Le clan Panneton, pour déménager, faut composer le 937-0707.

Ask anyone in QC what’s the Clan Panneton’s number and they will start signing it.
Not in rescue mode. If you can’t mount your root partition because something was fudged in /etc/fstab, for example, you may be stuck in recovery and depending on your distribution, it may not have nano in that minimalist mode.
For me it also happens when I install a VM of Debian using the small image, on my dedicated server in a data center. The company hosting the server requires a special network configuration and AFAIK, there’s only vi. So i need to use the console to access the VM and from there, edit /etc/network/something with vi to setup the network. Once done I can reboot and install the rest of the software over the network, including nano.
I’ve been using Linux for more than two decades. Before nano I was using pico, but it also required to have pine/alpine installed. So knowing the basics of vi has often been helpful over the years for me.
Maybe it’s because I like tinkering with VMs and SBCs, and most people will not encounter situations where they don’t have nano, but it can happen. And you’ll be glad to know at least “i” and “:wq!”.
Sometimes you don’t even have the luxury of nano. Any moderately advanced Linux user should probably learn the basics of vi. Just knowing how to insert text and save it can fix a system that’s stuck in recovery. Even if it’s just to add a comment in front of a line in a config file.
How do you use these when you are connecting via SSH? You enable X forwarding?
It’s fine when you have a graphical environment, but what do you do when you dont have one?
Or throw a diskette in the trash while being chased by the police, then yell “HACK THE PLANET!” from the back of the police car.
No it makes sense. That’s why Hatsune Miku in North America is not a projected hologram; the equipment has been seized and used by the Biden team!
Wasn’t MTG doing crossfit? Maybe they should look into it. She could be not feminine enough for conservatives if she has been doing ‘men activities’ involving strength and muscles. Maybe MTG is secretly a men! Just sayin.
Apparently it’s when they are old enough to be in school shootings that they cease to be a precious important life to be protected at all cost.
I hope it’s using a shit load of energy, like other “AI” stuff. Because we’re absolutely not in a climate crisis where reducing consumption is necessary. More “AI” that consumes more power, that’s exactly what we need.
How often do you switch email address and provider?
I do tech support on the phone.
When I can’t take remote control, the person on the other side is not following instructions, and they just keep repeating “no, not working!” while trying multiple things one after another, that I can’t see.
Like, I can understand not being good with technology, I’ll be patient. But if I tell them to try loading the site in a private/incognito window and they’re telling me “but I tried in Firefox and it’s not working”, it’s not what I’m asking them to do. And if they’re like “wait, I’ll try again in Chrome” then repeat “nope, not working!”, it’s still not what I’m asking them to try!
Only for Israel…
South Africa did not compete at Olympic Games from 1964 to 1988, as a part of the sporting boycott of South Africa during the apartheid era.
It’s an interesting question. If someone could go back in time to try to shoot Hitler but ended up missing, would it still be a good deed?
The one about the memorial built in advance for a damn disaster that they all saw coming but did nothing about, except for the memorial of the future victims.
