They get joy from killing other animals.

You seem to be psychic; or you can talk to them. Which is it?

My family has vet hospital people and spca people in it, and they don’t have your level of certainty.

it’s no one’s business why people choose to abort.

This. The only answer to “why” is “fuck off”, and for so many reasons. It’d suck to agonize over the decision, and once it’s made to then be second-guessed by some rando.

Dood. Boot times are useless ‘flex’ metrics more influenced by processor and disk speed than init systems. My el5 and el6 archive systems boot faster than my el7 ELS system, which itself is faster than el9; but not by enough to matter when you’re booting every week to a month. It’s never BEEN an issue.

Compare complexity: Has your init system metastasized over the entire host and re-implemented (poorly) other core systems, so long-dependable features just simply don’t work, and everything has its own rinky-dink silly-walk to configure instead of /etc/fstab or /etc/exports, instead of staying in its lane? No? You’re good. Diversity and specialization will give you excellent results and security. Yes? You have systemd.

There’s your comparison.

False.

The Facebook Portal TV was, and still is, gorgeous. The voice control is dead, the streaming services removed, the Alexa link dead, but as a video conf device that uses your TV really well, it’s a life-changer.

We chat with people on the other Coast weekly, and we get to see people in their living room from ours. We can’t go visit, but we can stay in touch.

We paid like $100 each for 4 of these. I’d’ve paid 5 times that for one with upgradeable assistant access and vanilla open video chat so it’s fb free. They’re all still running but they tether us to Fb since the zoom was ass.

I only saw it in tropical turquoise.

That would be gorgeous.

That graph is not accurate: it more says “some countries are bigger”, and also doesn’t count size of DCs nor how they’re cooled. BTU, square meters, and how much evaporative cooling BTUs per capita are the numbers that matter.

This graph shows none of that. Yes, America would still be way out of whack, but we can show that with an actual comparison instead of this lazy journalism.

Oh, wow. Genius plan. If the flatlander states aren’t completely toxic and ruined, they could be resettled as soon as the Cascadian and NewColonial state groups repair their economies enough to begin allowing new membership applications and setting up proper accessible care and prevention.

… and dirtbag richbitch reparation suits. They’ll pay for proper healthcare and rebuilding now with their tax money, or in a courtroom later.

Ouch. Sick burn.

The code is concrete.

My building has a plan-b for fire that is “shelter in-place in the main bathroom and block the door sweep.”

Yes, I think no investigation happened at all. Not one iota.

Yay! We’re going in 18 months!

My bro has moved-house 46 times in his life(10 before college). 5 countries, at least, each with their own language and pitfalls. I think even he approaches it with a little less nonchalance than you - and us an army family who runs it all like a move mission!

What I can’t replace is my wrecked spine. So we hire the gorillas and the truck.

Even for this last move, which was 2 doors and 80m down the road, they packed, drove for 4 seconds and unpacked, and I wasn’t broken more after than before. Woo!

Yeah, I say that’s a value judgement every time. If you can brutally trim down to crucial stuff and rent (yes rent) space from a buddy, I think that’s the best.

In our case we never expected to move back near our original location, and thus left nothing behind. But my mom is paying $400/mo for a 12x10 locker for all her worldly possessions when we moved her into care. It’s a pricy way to hoard stuff while she’s transitioning down that slope.

All my moves had someone on the ground either before, after, or both. It’s invaluable. Growing up bouncing around as a kid, my family can do a long-distance relo like it’s an army mission – checklists and fallback plans.

Glad you had a plan b – I overnighted in a chilly ottawa basement of some ghetto airBnB when my housing glitched on arrival with cross-country move #3 ( fucking realtor landlords ), but that was remedied before the main group closed the housing at origin and arrived to prep for the indolent movers’ arrival (ultimately out of the blue after being in the wind for 8 weeks with everything we owned).

I was glad we’d almost planned enough, and I could focus on the employment and keep that going.

Cross-country move #2 used NJ movers and they extorted us$10k extra to release our stuff, so one chilly overnight was ultimately survivable in comparison.
