My recent ones aren't very serious but they've been living rent free.

Coworker called me a tech racoon because I don't throw computer shit away.

Other was another coworker mentioning that people that like purple really like it. Making me go "fuck" everytime I find a new purple thing in my home. Think I'm up to 30+ 🙃

What about you?

I just read Station Eleven by Emily St. John Mandel , and it's living rent free in my brain.

It was such a powerful book in so many ways. I loved the way the different storylines and characters were tied together, some intricately and some just loosely, as well as the multiple perspectives, timelines, and storylines.

I believe it was originally suggested to me as a book similar to the TV show LOST(2004-2010) and it did satisfy that quite well.

Other books that I have read and enjoyed in a similar vein include:

• The Silo trilogy by High Howey ( Wool, Shift, and Dust)
• Wayward Pines series by Blake Crouch (Pines, Wayward, and The Last Town)
• Some Desperate Glory by Emily Tesh
• MaddAddam Trilogy by Margaret Atwood (Oryx & Crake, the Year of the Flood, and MaddAddam)

Does anyone have any book suggestions for something similar I should look for?

Thanks!

What the title says! Edit:word

Sure, there are probably a thousand reasons why it wouldn’t work in Europe but still, it kinda sucks that Toyota’s rolling out EVs way faster in China than over here.

• One third of Canada’s emissions lose CO2 pollution pricing

• Climate solutions undercut

• MediaTek Filogic 880 processor
• 1 x 10 Gigabit SFP port

• 1 or 2 Gigabit Ethernet ports
• WiFi 7 (tri-band)

OpenWrt Two is expected to sell for around $250 when it hits the streets in late 2025

When faced with generic competition, Syngenta tried to prevent cheaper options from reaching farmers, court records show. The company said it was protecting its investments and helping consumers. The government said it was stiffing farmers for millions.

The Center for Public Integrity, a thirty-six-year-old nonprofit newsroom in Washington, DC, that won acclaim for its investigations but has endured financial and organizational turmoil for much of the past decade, has ceased publishing and is in talks to turn over its archives to the Project on Government Oversight (POGO), an anti-corruption watchdog group.

What does someone have to do that means no amount of remorse or effort to fix things will get you to forgive them? I don't mean forgive and forget to the point where they can hurt you again. If someone repeatedly steals from you, forgiveness doesn't mean putting them in a position where they can steal again.

I'm asking this purely out of curiosity. I'm just wondering what the attitude in my corner of the internet is.

Many users reported high memory/RAM usage, some 8GB+.

In my case gone from 1.5GB+ to 400MB or less on Raspberry Pi 4.

Adding MALLOC_TRIM_THRESHOLD_=100000can make a big difference.

With Docker:
Add to your docker-compose.yml and docker compose down && docker compose up -d

...
environment:
  - MALLOC_TRIM_THRESHOLD_=100000
...

With systemd:
Edit /etc/default/jellyfin change the value of MALLOC_TRIM_THRESHOLD_ and restart the service

# Disable glibc dynamic heap adjustment
MALLOC_TRIM_THRESHOLD_=100000

Source: https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin/issues/6306#issuecomment-1774093928

Official docker,Debian,Fedora packages already contain MALLOC_TRIM_THRESHOLD_.
Not present on some docker images like linuxserver/jellyfin

Check is container (already) have the variable
docker exec -it jellyfin printenv | grep MALLOC_TRIM_THRESHO LD_

When the two coolest people you know become friends

Gaza’s bakeries will run out of flour for bread within a week, the U.N. says. Agencies have cut food distributions to families in half. Markets are empty of most vegetables. Many aid workers cannot move around because of Israeli bombardment.

“We depend entirely on this aid box,” said Shorouq Shamlakh, a mother of three collecting her family’s monthly box of food from a U.N. distribution center in Jabaliya in northern Gaza. She and her children reduce their meals to make it last a month, she said. “If this closes, who else will provide us with food?”

The World Food Program said Thursday that its flour for bakeries is only enough to keep producing bread for 800,000 people a day until Tuesday and that its overall food supplies will last a maximum of two weeks. As a “last resort” once all other food is exhausted, it has emergency stocks of fortified nutritional biscuits for 415,000 people.

Fuel and medicine will last weeks longer before hitting zero. Hospitals are rationing antibiotics and painkillers. Aid groups are shifting limited fuel supplies between multiple needs, all indispensable — trucks to move aid, bakeries to make bread, wells and desalination plants to produce water, hospitals to keep machines running.

Original Title: Counties where far-right candidate John G. Schmitz received over 5% of the vote in 1972. Schmitz would go on to be expelled from the John Birch Society for extremism and was the father of the infamous Mary Kay Letourneau.

Obviously Republicans control the Executive & Legislative branches right now, and can afford to sacrifice some of their agenda to filibuster. But it’s obvious now that the Trump admin has no issue committing crimes and violating the constitution almost every week.

Are the courts the only thing that can stop them right now? A military coup isn’t happening without direct threats to us. And the GOP is to far up Trump’s ass to impeach and convict him. So that only leaves the courts, do you think the courts are being purposely overwhelmed to slow down their action against MAGA?
