You know how there's those large burials that happen sometimes? What would you call a place where lots of deceased humans are buried?

Aww this is how I learn? Sad times indeed, but at least that lobster lived 3.5 years longer than if anyone other than Brady took him

The middle dragon never specified if the work done was the right work

This post has changed my Outlook on life, never thought a lemmy post would Sway me that much.

Quite low, as it turns out. Linked at the end of this article was this depressing read of Trump supporters saying "Get over it."

If we're to have a serious conversation on this for a second - my view is that I don't push people towards the lifestyle choices I've picked (veganism, Linux, meditation, etc.) but if it seems the person is already open to something I do, I'm happy to answer their questions in a non judgemental manner and be a resource for them.

I'm truthful in what I say, and I will just as easily tell them the bad things (no Photoshop, learning curve, you may find yourself running commands sometimes) as well as the good things so they can make an informed decision.

I've had one friend move over to Linux Mint on his laptop because he saw I was already using it and realised it's actually doable, and another friend start considering vegetarianism more seriously

I feel that if you constantly tell people how awesome and great Linux is and they're missing out, you just look like you're part of a cult and not a rational person.

There's always more to the story than what a news article and lawsuit will give, so I think it's best to keep that in mind with this post.

I maintain that the parents should perhaps have been more perceptive and involved with this kid's life, and ensuring this kid felt safe to come to them in times of need. The article mentions that the kid was already seeing a therapist, so I think it's safe to say there were some signs.

However, holy absolute shit, the model fucked up bad here and it's practically mirroring a predator here, isolating this kid further from getting help. There absolutely needs to be hard coded safeguards in place to prevent this kind of ideation even beginning. I would consider it negligent that any safeguards they had failed outright in this scenario.

Hilariously I am, even have @JustARegularNerd@aussie.zone registered.

I appreciate you offering, if you truly have no use for it yourself and don't know anyone else in your life that could use it, I'll be happy to turn it into a digital whiteboard

I completely agree - not detracting from your points at all, but I hate that not only can you not put your own system onto an iPhone but you can't even downgrade. Hell you can't even put your own apps on it without dumb restrictions.

I still had an iPad 3 that would have made an excellent smart whiteboard/todo device velcroed to the wall, but iOS 9 doesn't cut it (in fact, nearly bricks the iPad in performance). I could easily write up something that would run as a full screen to do app on Linux and that hardware would do it, but Apple doesn't let you.

Gave that hunk of shit away and still am keeping an eye out for an Android tablet I can set this up with.

Total opposite of autocorrect, I disabled mine because it was pissing me off, proceeded to ask a friend for a screenshit instead of a screenshot.

No worries, all the best with that.

I wish I could be more help with the radio app but I get the impression that it's intended to be built with the ROM and while I've compiled ROMs once before I have no idea how to include a different app with the build.

I know it probably wasn't your intention, but thank you for making my day with this comment, and for doing your part for the fucking birds.
