Thanks. I forgot about reverse image searching. I found their Etsy shop and ordered me a print.

😉

As an aside, why do I feel like this is an alt account with a not-so-similar, yet-still-similar, name?

Years ago (2019), my ex and I bought those little magnetic balls for our kids. To this day she is still finding those balls all over her house.

~It’s the gift that keeps on giving.~

Is there a higher res version of this?

Edit: for anybody interested, there is an Etsy shop with this print.

The pregnancy test is sealed and unused. I want my money back!

In my area, there are special schools dedicated to hosting expelled kids. It most certainly makes things worse and not better.

Strong as a bumblebee

Isn’t it “strong as he can be”? 😂

👍

As a GenX (xennial actually), no… GenX needs to start being held accountable for the all the shit going on in this world. They are not above reproach, and it’s high time we all call them out on their narcissistic bullshit.

Nothing will get better.

I can’t help but feel Douglas was poking fun at himself, considering how his editors had to lock him in a room to finish So Long, And Thanks For All The Fish.

Federation by its very nature is the very definition of decentralized. My best guess is that you’re conflating high availability (e.g. fail over servers, or round robin, or something else where when one server goes down, another kicks in as a backup but still on the same domain) with federation.

~No shade btw.~

Bruh.

While a traditional social networking service will host all its content on servers managed by the owner of the website, the decentralized structure of the Fediverse allows any individual or organization to host a social platform using their own servers…. [Source]

(Emphasis mine)

It does when the majority of communities are on one server. This one included.

Reminds me of an old joke:

Q. Why is your mom like a shotgun?

A. Because one pump and she’s ready to blow.

Thank you for confirming what I said. 😊

This may or may not help, but here’s my two cents:

Windows was originally built to be as user-friendly as possible because its target audience are non-tech-savvy people. It then evolved into being a business OS. So security was never its first priority.

UNIX was built for tech savvy people to do business-sensitive stuff, and required sophisticated security models. Linux was modeled after UNIX (Minix specifically), and thus inherited those same principles. It evolved to become more user friendly. But security remained a priority.

Now, that said, both Windows and Linux are configurable. You can make Windows more secure with effort, just like you can make Linux less secure with effort (and I don’t mean simply using root all the time).

There are diehards on both sides , and they will make excellent (or terrible) arguments for their favored OS. So you need to decide what works best for you and your use case and go with that. 😊

I’m hoping that either he will implode from embarrassment, or his base will. If we’re really lucky, maybe both?

~Maybe not. But a boy can dream.~

Good question. These supposedly came from some committee in the US gov.
