Calgary boy.

  • another "snap bad" post

    Jump

  • I like snaps. The nextcloud snap served me well for a decade at my last job. The ability to put everything required into one snap package and never modify the base system is awesome.

  • Alternatively... bidet

    Jump

  • Depilatory creams are your friend in that area.

  • Microsoft doing shady Microsoft stuff again

    Jump

  • Switched to Ubuntu completely this year and I think it's finally ready. There are still issues, there are always going to be issues, but at least I get to choose which apps I want to use.

    Windows 11 is just objectively terrible. It's Microsoft turning your power bill into their profit.

  • Grab some Kleenex before you go for the ending.

  • Rule34 blocked the UK entirely rather than comply due to the new law.

    Jump

  • It's the same schtick you hear from pedophiles in defense of their child sex dolls and it's unsurprising to see it coming from rule34 in particular considering they serve up a lot of that content in cartoon form.

  • Linux Reaches 5% Desktop Market Share In USA

    Jump

  • I put Ubuntu on my year old Windows laptop and to my surprise, everything is just better. I mean better than Windows AND better than Linux ever was before when I used it previously. I wouldn't be surprised if we start seeing some major manufacturers shipping PCs with Ubuntu pre-loaded in the coming years.

  • Ok, I have been in this situation. I was the crazy schizophrenic neighbour.

    This does not go well for you unless you avail yourself of every avenue to protect yourself. This person is mentally ill and their illness causes them to have delusions about your brother and your family. Whatever they are hearing is making them think that they need to react by terrorizing you. In their mind they are protecting themselves. It is very possible that this escalates to violence.

    You need to communicate regularly with the police and ask if there is a community mental health liason officer who you can be put into contact with. You need to keep a journal of every communication back and forth and every action the neighbour takes against you. Over time keep building a case until you can have the police detain them under whatever mental health laws you have.

    You also need to supply a constant stream of documentation of the behaviour to your landlord. They can take action to preserve their property in the face of a mental illness that very well might burn it down.

    I’m really sorry this is happening to you. Feel sorry for your neighbour if you want but advocate for yourselves and your needs first here.

  • Funniest part is: they can't even agree internally on how to believe

  • Careful, that is the sort of blasphemy that can get you murdered these days.

  • Get them to check your thyroid levels, that’s what it was when I was feeling similar at 24. It took years for me to feel normal and have energy again but it’s treatable.

    I was losing hair in the shower, I had dry skin on my arms and bad dandruff and I was exhausted all the time even after a large dose of aderall in the mornings. My TSH was 20 when it’s supposed to be below 6.

  • The US under Trump cannot be misunderstood: They are a threat to Canadian sovereignty.

    Jump

  • We don't want to annex part of the US. We don't want to import more conservative voters from the US. We just want to be left alone and our responses are going to be symmetrical in keeping with that unfortunately.

  • There Is No Safe Word: How the best-selling fantasy author Neil Gaiman hid the darkest parts of himself for decades.

    Jump

  • I'm really disappointed in Amanda Palmer. This does not paint a pretty picture of her.

  • Sugar water

    Jump

  • I have never seen the sugared version in western Canada, only the zero calorie ones.

  • Progressives Say GOP's H-1B Visa Feud Distracts From Real Problem: 'Billionaire Robber Barons'

    Jump

  • Yes, the issue is billionaire robber barons, AND the issue is that they are importing cheap labor to replace Americans, AND the cheap labor is suppressing wages for Americans. It's even worse than the TFW program in Canada as it applies to skilled labor that is available in the US, but more expensive.

  • Sign rule

    Jump

  • Hah, that set of channel letters on a stringer is worth 4k USD at least.

  • Sugar water

    Jump

  • Vitaminwater in Canada is sugar-free so I'm surprised to learn it's full sugar in the states. I definitely grab them here and there when I'm at the hospital for an appointment or looking for something that won't fuck with the ol' diabetes in the store.

  • Would Kamala Harris have won the 2024 election if Latinos didn't shift hard to the right?

    Jump

  • Oh no doubt in my mind it's the same as the stockholm syndrome afflicted gay men who were all over social media supporting Trump. It doesn't matter what the Republican party does or says, men in the US want to support it and delude themselves that they aren't it's targets.

  • I have no idea how to react to this.

    Jump

  • If you use Tumblr to get pictures of handsome working men / military men / etc, you see a lot of this crap coming from the same accounts sharing hot dudes. Gay men decrying "wokeism" and hating on trans people and immigrants.

    Being gay unfortunately does not correllate with intelligence.

  • What's the most irresponsible purchase you made that you don't regret?

    Jump

  • First bicycle this summer and soon second bicycle for winter. I have never felt better than since I started commuting on my bike to and from work.
