Depends on how much of asshole you are. I had no problems the brief time I was there.

Just let me know so I can change my crontabs.

When I recently upgrade a hundred windows 10 machines to 11 the majority of the keyboard time to do this was disabling all that shit.

I need the stl for this stat. I have some blue glow filament.

I dont care about vegans or their opinions. They are entitled to them but I block the communities so their brand of ridiculous doesn’t show up in my feed as much. Just like I block the women only community so they don’t have to worry about me reacting to their brand of bigotry.

Vegans are the most annoying. I get crap from some arch goons regularly. I don’t get much from vegans on lemmy because I block their communities. I’m not leaving the Linux communities. I was here before them and I’ll be here after they moved on to some other distro. They do however resemble Vegans in their inability to accept no one wants to hear them ad nauseam.

Its not that its bad. Its that it isn’t any better but people go out of their way to say it is. Its the Vegan choice for linux. I’ve installed it and used it but honestly it doesn’t bring anything better to the table. Right now I’ve installed KDE Neon but its going to go pretty quick.

Its the effete users that are annoying.

Arch users deserve to be defenestrated.

I really like it that your parents didn’t know.

Yeah its word the kiddies learn but don’t have any idea what it means.

No.

I’ve had milk two weeks past that still smelled good. I poured it out anyway. The secret to milk is that it has to stay cold. If it warms even a bit the shelf life is cut way short.

Edit: Even if you buy the milk and it ice cold doesn’t mean somewhere in the distribution process it hasn’t been allowed warm up. I have bought milk that went bad within a day.

How nature says block.

Its amazing how little they want to know why and just want to vent their frustration at you. Laughter doesn’t calm them down but it sure makes me feel better after I’ve explained it ten times.

Yup, I’m right about you.

Thank you for that pointless attempt at comparison. They never changed the name of gif nor the pronunciation of it.

I was young in the late 80’s and it was all new. I had a IBM AT, a bell 300 baud modem and a bluebox. The internet wasn’t really much at that point. We used tymnet nodes to access compuserve and some BBS. It was the best shit ever. Gif was a incredible improvement over bmp and tiff. I had two 20meg hard drives and converting to gif saved me a huge amount of space :).

The only reason anyone knows of the gif format is due to unisys backing off their royalty push in 94. A few years before there was a compression standard. The files were .arc. They made a big play at getting the BBS systems in the country to pay for using it and in less than a month they all switched to zip. You have of course heard of zip but arc died a quick death for being pushy. It was just a few years before unisys went after mosaic. It didn’t get very far because it triggered a similar action and it was clear gif wasn’t going to get much. They went after a few corporations but largely left the fledgling browsers alone.

No one questioned the name when they presented it. No one argued it because it wasn’t a problem. This whole pronunciation thing is really quite silly. It goes right along side other silly things such as which way the toilet paper goes on a roller. When kids these days say it wrong I leave it uncommented but invariably when I pronounce it correctly in a crowd of them one will attempt to correct me and trigger a “boomersplain” of exactly why they are incorrect. I give them the history of it until their eyes glaze over. Which is also fun.

Only I’m not a boomer. I’m a member of the meh generation.

Sometime around 2010 was the first time I encountered someone who was foaming at the mouth certain about how I was saying it wrong. Considering by that time I had know about the file format for twenty years I dismissed their error. Its really funny watching all these people making fools out of themselves in defense of getting it wrong. The very first article I read about the format specifically showed the pronunciation. All in all I think its stupid how they will not or can not accept they got it wrong. Instead they call me a boomer or make some lame argument that the author and the company that came up with it. The company that owned it don’t get to decide what to call it. I dive in every time this comes up as its entertaining watching all these ‘fetuses’ get it wrong.

I was around before they existed as well. I remember reading a article about the new format and dialing into CompuServe in 1988 and downloading the first compiler and decoders for it. I remember how the article specifically showed the pronunciation. I know I say it correctly as the author and unisys intended. I remember when unisys was butthurt in 94 and tried to charge the whole world wide web for it and how that failed. I remember it all so it doesn’t matter if you or anyone else got it wrong.

I didn’t.

Okay Fetus but

Nope, try again.
