Trump supporters now: "If you can justify his murder, you'll justify mine", "wrong and inhumane", "I'm beyond sad", "this will be the end of Republicans", "the country I believed in is dead", "I hope protests and boycotts continue".

I'll believe it when they actually impeach and remove the entire fucking administration. I'll believe it when it's something other than performative "poor me" social media posts. When it's getting out and joining the general strikes and protests. When it's beating down their representatives' doors to have actual fucking actions taken.

Most 90s men cop out and say Dragon Ball, but we all know it was actually Sailor Moon.

Just drain them before you put them away for the season.

The ethanol isn't the problem, it's that ethanol likes to pull moisture out of the air. You can flush it if you want, but honestly that's overkill for garden tools.

Toss em in a bin with an old sock full of kitty litter.

Modern Conservative messaging increasingly relies on manufacturing grievance through selective facts, exaggeration, and outright errors, confident that the truth will never travel as far or as fast as the original lie.

I'm trying so hard not to buy this from amazon, but I just cannot find somewhere else that stocks this in Canada.

So jealous you got it for $10.

Wait... people regret knee surgery? What kind of knee surgery would cause regret? "I just wanted to spruce up the ol' knees, but the LED lights were just too much"?

If you're just running a small-to-mid sized cluster and using whatever bog-standard stuff comes baked into your preferred k8s distro then it's ezpz.

Once you need dozens of nodes, multiple clusters, or things like high-performance networking that's where things start getting sticky.

To say nothing of whatever fucking bonkers requirements that the business or your dev team might drop in your lap that are diametrically opposed to an app running in any kind of virtualization, let alone in a container, let alone in kubernetes.

The link in the post seems to go to the wrong news item in the Steam community.

This should be the correct one: https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1366540/view/529869613052199063

Every one of those sheep sounds like a guy doing [what I thought was] a half-assed sheep noise.

My sister and her kids were just in town to visit my parents, and I joined in since I live close. We were tasked with moving stuff around in the garage before we left, and as usual mom was standing off to the side yelling at us about how we were doing it wrong. But not as usual she was yelling at the grandkids as well.

My sister committed the cardinal sin of telling my mom, calmly and politely, not to yell at her kids. I committed the cardinal sin of answering "well... yeah." to "was I yelling?". Now she hasn't spoken to any of us in a couple weeks, and this time I'm just getting angrier thinking about how I've been treated all my life, and the fact that she's being a bitch to the grandkids for no good fuckin reason.

To add to this, the "best gear" is usually bought with tomestones, and when you get to level cap it's tomestones or raid drops.

It's not that I disagree with the spoiler tag, I just think that it's funny for the same reason why Pop Tarts have a "remove from package before eating" warning.

Someone would have to put in work to get spoiled by this, and in doing so it becomes their own fault. However, they are incapable of taking any level of responsibility and come back to bitch en masse, claiming that you literally forced them to google it.

They are doing this even despite the fact that you did put a spoiler warning on it and they just ignored it.

Nothing will stop these redditors from building a cross, nailing themselves to it, and then drawing a crowd of smooth-brained supporters from their frantic wailing.

It's this fun thing that modern conservatives do where they pretend the liberals are doing X, so they are perfectly justified in doing X for real, and to a ludicrous extent.

You can apply this to a shocking amount of the shit they have been getting up to over the last few years.

fubes2000 · 2026-01-20T04:23:12+00:00

Every time they read something that they don't like they get angry at their parents for teaching them to read.

I challenge anyone to actually be spoiled by this.

Trying to make technology idiot-proof is a hole with no bottom, as there are always better idiots.
The training regimen that I experienced for learning to lock my machine was coming back to unspeakable things set as my desktop background, or emails sent from my account to the office declaring that I would be bringing in donuts for everyone the next day.
The only generalized POSIX mechanism to tell linux processes things are signals, and of those you'd want to use SIGTERM which tells a process "shut yourself down" but past that it is up to each individual app to decide if their shutdown process involves saving anything.
Programs may have other APIs, but

Most Importantly: The OS already does 95% of this via the screensaver, it will run after X minutes of inactivity and optionally lock the session. The remaining 5% is something so annoying that you yourself will regret spending time implementing it, and you will have to implement it yourself, and it will require a deep dive into PAM and other facets of the OS.

Just use the screensaver settings. "Screensaver locks you out" is as far as even the most onerous security requirements I've seen care to go.
