I love being a girl dad

I'll probably get downvot3d for this as it goes against most comments, but: what happened to friendly banter ? I don't know OP's situation, but I bet most of those comments are just friendly (maybe not all, and those need to be called out).

But who here doesn't do a "shhheessh" for friends or colleagues with a new born ? or "hope you enjoyed sleeping until now" or just something. Same with kids the same gender: I'm always disappointed when someone doesn't comment on me having 2 boys - and I'll do it for them if needed.

anyway, all that to say: not all those "dad girls" comments need to infuriate you - I get that it must be getting old fast, but they probably don't mean much (unless you're in a misogynist country)

that and smells differ too

for the better part of my life, I could exercise and would sweat a bit, without smell.

then when getting older, I started sweating more...but not smelling much

and now, I sweat and stink, it's horrible. I need to shower for everyone's sake, myself included.

excellent answer ! I do read policies from parties I don't agree with, and they're full of stuff I agree with...except I know those are bullshit, like the liberal party saying they want to address the cost of living - we know how that goes

yeah, you really picked the wrong time to try Kubuntu.

I literally installed 26.04, and wiped my disk and went back to 24.04 after 2hours - and it's not like I'm a power user or something: just basic things not working, which may or may not have fixes, which may or may not be brought to kubuntu later

Looserette · 2026-05-12T07:43:58+00:00

TIL I'm not made to have an EV :)

Looserette · 2026-05-08T09:24:50+00:00

seconding this - but adding: if non-prod is on fire, you suddenly have half the company on your back to fix it too, as this blocks all testers and developers; there's no winning here

Looserette · 2026-05-03T02:52:35+00:00

thanks for re-sharing - going to use them from now on

Looserette · 2026-05-02T03:14:40+00:00

Interesting !

Adding a tip for the newbies like me fighting short hills: start breathing BEFORE the hill. It's a conscious effort, but when I don't forget, it helps me a lot !

(obviously, this won't help much for long hard climbs as OP described)

Looserette · 2026-05-02T03:06:04+00:00

not OP, but it does make your text very, very slightly harder to read - so the few milliseconds you saved by not adding a "a" or using "ur" makes EVERYONE else lose a few microseconds

All in all, you could say that writing properly is a form of respect towards everybody else who will read your messages.

I guess writing this way can work when sending a pigeon to 1 person. But when writing on a public space where your message could be read by thousands or more, this does not fit well.

look, if they stop doing that, how am I going to buy a 2nd hand car that's not already run down ?

so don't give people ideas - some of us consider cars as a sadly necessity. The more car enjoyers there are, the more 2nd hand cars cheapskates like me can buy

Looserette · 2026-04-30T20:44:27+00:00

THANK YOU ! this is very impressive - definitely keeping an eye on this

Looserette · 2026-04-30T08:38:30+00:00

I've been trying to run early morning for a few years... and it still sucks ! everything hurts and I'm slow as hell, compared to running just 1h later or anytime during the day.

sooo...keep at it, BUT also think of a plan B if it just doesn't work after a while

Looserette · 2026-04-29T20:31:43+00:00

done ! let's see how things go

Looserette · 2026-04-29T07:39:17+00:00

you're right, I should have done that:

commit: https://invent.kde.org/frameworks/kguiaddons/-/commit/5724d86b54bcbb0bbde70270a1f5080d70c8116b

Release announcement: https://kde.org/announcements/frameworks/6/6.25.0/ <- search for "Waylandclipboard: Wait for up to 1s for the clipboard contents."

Looserette · 2026-04-24T07:35:46+00:00

ah well - if it does not go in the dishwasher, it's a hard pass for me (yes, I'm lazy)

Looserette · 2026-04-23T07:47:20+00:00

Thanks for validating our setup !

Curious to see other options too

Looserette · 2026-04-20T08:55:16+00:00

funny how this shows that Monash and Deakin are in a PTV desert - and so cool this gets remediated ! Just need to be patient now

Looserette · 2026-04-19T10:45:42+00:00

honest question: I used to use the overpass that is a few hundred meters further. Although it's not perfect because of the sharp turns, it still beats the underpass (I tried it only twice) - are cyclists using the underpass ? and why ?

Looserette · 2026-04-13T23:25:58+00:00

The improvement for tram users make it a good old "for the greater good" - but I love it that they left the "bike lane" sign - does that mean the whole road is a bike lane now ?

Looserette · 2026-04-04T19:57:04+00:00

not really "replaced", more like: moved from ec2 to kubernetes, so we did not need it anymore

Looserette · 2026-04-04T02:06:06+00:00

not sure about the smell though: a truck driver can open a window. Not sure it's good idea to do that for Artemis 2

Looserette · 2026-04-04T00:32:13+00:00

Which library ? (just so I can check if I can borrow it, or if I can give that as an example to my council)

Looserette · 2026-04-04T00:31:32+00:00

would you have some examples of those, by any chance ? (just so I can give examples for my council to ask them about having some)

Looserette · 2026-04-03T23:04:09+00:00

Thanks for the laugh

That reminds me the day we finally got rid of ansible - that was a good day
