A friend of a friend is a dairy farmer, and we were at his place and I was introduced to raw milk for the first time, and I did not enjoy the experience, nor do I understand people who seek it out.

I worked at a slaughterhouse for about 6 months, in Canada so obviously different. But the only time I saw a cow not unconscious while being drained was when the Orthodox Jews or Muslims stopped by. I didn't watch those twice.

My father insisted I work at one, like he worked at one when he was young. He used a .22, I used a captive bolt gun. Done correctly, the cow should be unconscious. But that industry attracts a certain type of people, so without the government keeping a close eye on the industry I believe the events of that article will happen more.

Wow, that's shit. I've been with Newsgroup.ninja for the past.... decade. I'm grandfathered in on some /r/usenet promotion from a long time ago but they're still pretty cheap and offer the same retention as easynews. Everything is on usenet, it's just a matter of finding the right indexer, nice thing is the good indexers just want money so barring a few sites it's pretty easy to get started.

Well.... That's 2 mins of my life I'll never get back. Thanks for the link tho

I thought I had a lifetime Plex pass, but turns out I was on yearly and the price went up $20/year, so I bought lifetime before the price went up. My whole family uses Plex, I couldn't handle setting up Jellyfin for everyone and their devices.

It is alot better, I keep hesitating on dropping the money for an equivalent amd card. I keep telling myself I'll do vfio and try looking glass. Then I look into the config and shudder. I can deal with a restart a day.

They jacked their prices, or are about to anyway. If you don't have a lifetime Plex pass then Plex might not be a viable option. My seedbox provider has been pushing people to Jellyfin for anyone without a Plex pass.

The trailer sold me on it, downloading now

I hate the one he has his wife do, trying to get the immigrant vote.

You'd think Harper would have his puppet say something that would appeal to the public. Honestly if they hadn't scrapped the carbon tax he'd just be repeating "Axe the Tax" ad nauseum.

That's a good idea actually. I hate writing regex, so I asked Gemini to do it just now. Once I explained it in the format it wanted: what the source would be, what I wanted filtered and the language I planned to use it with it spat out a perfect expression without me needing to even use my brain. Technology is wonderful.

Depends, my browser has mostly taken over as my pdf viewer and I think it lacks the functionality but if I were to install a cracked copy of Acrobat Pro or PhantomPDF then that's like a 2 click operation.

All the tech executives from silicon valley that are our age all restrict cellphone use by their kids. If the people creating the tech that ruined a generation don't let them use their own devices that say a lot.

Definitely, and modded Minecraft has taken a great game and made it so much better. The "Create" mod alone has made MC so much more than what Mojang intended.

And the launchers available for Linux let you use modpacks from every source including FTB, letting you forgo a launcher full of ads.

Yea and the whole Trump "He's not my kind of guy" thing screams like a lie to get Canadians to think Skippy isn't affiliated with Trump. But Skippy meeting with the family that owns the largest chain of for-profit hospitals is what scares me the most. If he wins, he'll push either an American system, or more likely a 2 tier system. Either way we get fucked.

That brought me back, I was on IRC in 1994 and someone shared the link to a website of the anarchists cookbook. And that is the first site I remember visiting... My brain says it was probably a Geocities site, but so much of the internet was that I can't recall

It's pretty common for me at least, I went from manjaro which broke during an update, to endeavour which broke many times but by that point I clued in to btrfs and it's snapshots. Now I have my home directory split into different hard drives and I just keep my fstab file backed up online in the event that a snapshot can't save me. Which happened last week, rather than continue on with endeavour I tried CachyOS this time. One day I'll install Arch the way it was meant to be, but until then...

No, I've been running Endeavour forever and know his pain quite well. It's almost always core packages that break it. None of the stuff from the AUR has ever caused issues. That being said he should be using btrfs and taking regular snapshots. Sometimes I feel like installing grub just to make recovering snapshots easier.

Twice this year I've had updates break the system, both were core packages. I just restore a snapshot then delay my next update for a couple days and it's usually fixed.

Amitriptyline as well, started taking it for peripheral neuropathy. Ended up on a higher dose because it's a heavy sedative. Take it before bed, and I'm out. I was taking Zopiclone before, to help me sleep but don't need it now. Also it failed as an antidepressant but works wonders for antianxiety.
