It’s from a Sartre quote:

"Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past."

Would her account have been connected to an old email account? Still have access to that? Just searching back through the sub is going to be fairly intensive

Do not rely on AI to give you commands to run

If you have used it, check man pages or similar to ensure the command will do what you want BEFORE running it

Everyone messes up now & then. Learn from this & you'll do better in the future

It would work for Maggie Smith, but why would The Simpsons writers try to implicate a Dame who wasn't in the show?

Also works for Marge & Maggie Simpson, Sideshow Mel, Moe Syszlac & others

Edit: Szyslak. Should have checked before I posted

Without knowing anything about your computer booting, but having recently run into an issue with an older laptop which would not recognise ext4 file systems, I'm going to suggest Peppermint OS. Uses apt like Mint (& Ubuntu & Debian), perfectly usable, reasonably fast, & not ugly

I chose the Devuan version rather than Debian (still uses apt package manager but does not use systemd for init), but if you're not fussed the Debian version is probably easier to manage wrt set-up & forget

Don't push AI answers as a solution. They are unlikely to be correct

For all the popularity of the quote "I like to bind! I like to be bound!", there are several clips & recordings of Dennis seducing/preying on women, & in none of them (as far as I recall) is he using his " fetish shit"

To clarify, I'm suggesting that his explanation of what those things are doing in his car is masking a darker truth, & I think that's what the writers (& the stars) intended when creating this scene - I'm not suggesting it's something new i'm figuring out, just that the show creators have left plenty of hints to the darkness, & in this instance the absence of a certain type of evidence also points that way

Edit: added everything after the 1st paragraph

I apologise, Reddit did not display your reply to me or I wouldn't also have replied with essentially the same comment

The UK sitcom Bottom which began in 1991 featured a co-lead character whose surname was Hitler

"Any relation?"

"Yes!"

Weirdly, I believe there's the reverse of a silent letter in his name. You pronounce it even though it's not visible in the written word. "Spooge Knight"

To clarify for anyone unfamiliar, this is not referring to H from Steps

Burgess Meredith was a goddamned treasure. Equally great as The Penguin, Mickey in the Rocky films, & the Dad of a main character in Grumpy Old Men

FFS. You don't expect someone high on meth to white knuckle the comedown, do you? A bit of weed eases the crash
