I thought this up until a few years ago. When I text these friends, they text back.

Also you can browse FB marketplace without an account. I have my roommate do the deed if I really need something, like a car this year, but most of the time I don’t bother.

Vote (cope) harder

I don’t get why people think I’m out at work or everyone supports me being gay or something based on my comment.

I’ve heard vile homophobia at work. They’re still gonna be homophobes no matter what in November

You’re saying this to a gay guy who works around trumpers in a factory.

Trump being president doesn’t mean the gays will be rounded up into camps or something. I hate when people play this card that we’re all gonna get fucking murdered and it’s my fault for not voting blue, like what? It’s apparent that it’s playing on emotions to use LGBT people as some weird guilt trip and it’s honestly pretty gross. I can take care of myself and my partner and our home just fine thanks. And I feel no differently safety wise whether it’s a Republican or Democrat in office.

God what the fuck is this comment. Donezo? Can you not make a genocide into tryin to be cute or whatever tf this is

Fuck Biden. Committed leftists / socialists / communists are not gonna hand wring about one president over another. I haven’t voted since Obama 2012, no plans to start anytime soon. Electoralism will not save us and I’m tired of hearing the lesser of two evils is the solution for the last, idunno 50 years? Unless a candidate were to stop all weapon sales to Israel (never gonna happen), it’s not worth all this song and dance bullshit

Cue every one of the factory workers at my job to crack jokes about a Chinese invasion all day

This seems like a dumb tiktok trend or some shit. It’s hard to get by in this world without a cellphone

But I just wish anyone would still want to talk on the phone. I love chatting with friends for an hour or so on the phone but everyone hates it now. Quick random texts just feel so much less personal. Ah well

Wow Linux 12 lookin sooo much better than Windows 12

Sooo jailbroken PS5 soon?

I am lol’ing at all the messages freaking out about my browser on most websites when I use Internet Explorer on the shop computer that still runs windows 7 and is slow as shit. It’s one of those garbo “all-in-one” desktop screen things which is basically just laptop parts from like 2008 crammed in a monitor

Well this is interesting.

I worked for 7 years at a Swedish company who built granulators, Rapid Granulator AB. I worked stateside though as the only electrical technician.

From what I could glean about the machinery we built and sold, they would say that the only viable way to recycle plastic is as it was being manufactured. So say you’re a facotry making hundreds of garbage cans a day. All the rejects (wrong chemical makeup, big bulge from the molding process, etc) would go into a granulator for “recycling”. The granulator grinds it down into small pellets which are then used at the beginning of the line.

From what I remember, customers were very very picky about what could be used after granulation. A little bit of the wrong color of dye would ruin a whole batch for instance. I’m curious to see exactly how this site zero plans to recycle waste products coming from the general population, on an engineering / technical level…

This, of course, is also dancing around the fact that it’s a bit of an open secret that most places in America do not recycle. And I’m talking systemically, not on an individual level. In my county I know that all recycling goes to the exact same landfill as all the trash. It’s a bit hard to feel hopeful when the USA sends 242 million pounds of plastic straight to the ocean every year. I felt a little better about it when China would sort through and recycle our plastics.

I haven’t seen an ad on any of my devices in like 4+ years, nor have I paid for any monthly subscriptions.

Say what you’d like about Google and Android, I’m not exactly singing their praises or anything, but I don’t think that’s possible with Apple.

Well remember when that Arch update broke grub?

I couldn’t boot into my PC at all. And for whatever reason, the fix they posted on the Arch wiki wasn’t working for me.

I deleted my bootloader in a live ISO environment and installed a different one (rEFInd). It was actually very easy.

Having the flexibility and power to do whatever you want to your system is truly something I deeply appreciate with Linux.

Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum

Idk man my life fell apart and I failed out of college. Hard. Picked myself back up and learned a trade and I’ve had a very successful career that I love and a beautiful old home I’m remodeling and a partner who loves me and we’re gonna get married soon.

Video games are just something to pass the time.

I just wish GOG would utilize Proton in a way to incorporate Linux support. It would be a slam dunk for them in terms of their userbase.

I just wish GOG would utilize Proton to make way for broad Linux support. It would be a slam dunk for them in terms of their userbase.

I got some massive 48U rack off Craigslist for like $50 and then cut it in half with an angle grinder, got some steel and screwed it all together to keep it stable. It ain’t pretty but the Frankenstein monster vibe adds to its character.

And I’m using the other half for audio equipment down the line so it all worked out
