I know Lord of the Flies is an allegory for the authors experience during and after WW2, but I do think its incredibly ironic the only real life example we have of the book turned out the complete opposite
If your in the left lane (USA) and nobodys in your half of the circle -> treat it like a regular roundabout and exit anytime after the first exit. If your in the right lane its the exact same except the farthest you can go in the circle is 2 exits
The only thing making it a horror is others not understanding how the roundabout works, which would be solved by making it mandatory on the drivers test
Please dont put anymore roundabouts in the US until its included in the drivers license test. Every trip to work is a gamble and I have to slam my breaks while in the circle at least once a day, people will even use the right turn only lane to go fully around...
This and people complaining when they only listen to the top 50 songs. "Nobody makes good insert genera here anymore! They do, their just below 1k listens. The insane amount of talent below the 100k and even the 1k listens mark is insane and I often find myself going "how the fuck does this perfect to me song only have 1k listens!"
Ah I fully take back my comment then.
Ironically ive read the book but haven't gotten around to watching the first movie
When people talk about the All Quiet on the Western Front movie their usually referring to the 2022 Netflix adaptation since the last adaptation was in 1979, and before that 1930. I've heard great things about the 1930 adaptation but have no clue which your talking about :0
The original movie maybe, but the most recent netflix one felt like it cut out every scene from the book that made you actually feel for the main character. By the end of the book you understand on an empathetic level that Paul's choice in the last scene of the book is a mercy to himself. The author deeply explores so much more then the horrors of war itself, brothership, the rich/powerful treating humans like game pieces, the effects of propaganda on those who are living the opposite reality, how the ones away from the front turn their backs on helping the troops despite being the loudest voice for pushing the war further. There is so much more to the book and its sad that such an viciously real story is dumbed down to "war bad and scary"
Thanks for sharing that project I had no idea it existed and it looks super cool! Although it isn't a maintained distro/real alternative as said by the creator themselves in the talk
One big diffrence between NixOS and Guix not mentioned is NixOS(the operating system only, the package manager is agnostic) is directly tied to systemD. Nothing against systemD but if your also interested in crafting/learning everything about your system your have more freedom with Guix and the NonGuix repo (nonguix is like an unofficial AUR for guix)
TLDR: husband caught his wife cheating through the camera of a robot vacuum, then decided to start recording the affair to help his legal case. He won NT$500,000 but since he illegally recorded the affair he was sued back and fined NT$150,000 (or prison time if he wishes not to pay)
I have a credit card purely for credit score. Im also a huge impulse buyer so my cap is $250. Ill never raise that cap because its pretty hard to screw yourself with, meanwhile all my coworkers talk about their thousands of dollars of credit card debt...
The ability to get the things you want now is not worth the very likely future of debt, nomatter how good you are with impulse buying
Interacting with you unlocks Epstein island at the wish granter, which teleports you into a prison cell with a broken camera and a security guard with a gun
KDE plasma wayland user since 5.20 specifically because the x11 version would bug out on me having a 240hz monitor alongside my 60hz drawing tablet. Plasma 6.7 has fixed basically every bug with refresh rate/animations I've had at this point including that frame rate one(which I think was caused by the animation reading from disk instead of ram?)
Had to stop watching at episode 5(?) cause of the arc where the little girl learns to accept and be happy with her arranged marriage to an old dude?! I figured it would be a one off "Japan being Japan" type thing but I searched it up just incase
Dropped it the second I found out the movie plot from that search. Such a bummer since I was super invested until that point :/
Unfortunately the electric cars being produced right now are just as bad as gas powered cars. Not to say you cant throw a battery in older cars and have a great little electric car for going around town, but the ones being newly produced are irreparable, single use, spyware ridden, pieces of shit made without the slightest concern the impact lithium battery mining and plastic production has on the environment. Maybe the upfront environmental cost will be offset by driving it for 10 years over a gas car that only dirtys the environment more the longer you have it, but a diesel converted to run off wood pellets(or other) or those prototype hydrogen engines are the only real alternatives for an environmentally friendly future. (Unless battery tech gets real environmentally friendly real quick)
iirc Debians reasoning is that on a desktop you dont really have any ports exposed anyway, so theres nothing to firewall. And on a base install your expected to follow the documentation that includes a guide to setting up a firewall

AoE and AoE2 still having an active player base and community makes me so happy. AoE2 is truly a timeless game

Being more knowledgeable then the person working the department, and still not knowing half of it, seems to just be the retail experience

Funny enough my old cat only had an issue with being cradled, absolutely hated it, but had no problem being held out like a gun and pretend fired
Your lucky she's content with the desk instead of laying fully across your keyboard like my old cat lol
