The themes are getting more boring with every release.
Which is why I went back to the Debian Squeeze theme.
I love how the boot process is a rocket launch from earth into deep space:

I’m in Europe, so I guess I’m just gonna feel ill tomorrow.
1 Teams message to my boss gets me 2 days off with full pay (ow, my tummy aches), and there’s not a goddamn thing in the world he can do about it.

How does that math work out when their wages are worth about as much as 1000 average human lives?

Billionaires shouldn’t exist.
There should be a hard upper limit on wealth somewhere around the $100 million mark.
An amount where you can still invest your money risk-free at ~1% above inflation and live a life of plenty without lifting a finger, forever.
Any property, company, or thing in general worth more than $100 million should never be owned by one person alone.

When your CPU is at 0 degrees Kelvin, nothing unpredictable can happen.

Removing the ruling class always leads to societal collapse.

Yeah, just read that their newest server OS puts a recovery partition to the right of the primary partition by default.
Which is completely useless on a server, and prevents you from growing the partition when you run out of space.

At this point, they’re basically saying “Office and AD guarantee our monopoly, so we can push out literal monkey shit, and tell admins to deal with it.”

and “actually needing Microsoft support but coming to you cause Microsoft doesn’t give a shit about private end users”

What they say: “You know about computers, right?”
What they mean: “Can you fix this bug in Microsoft’s software?”

At my first and only job involving SQL, the dev database was also the (only) backup.
The company was so cheap, only 2 people could log onto the server at a time, yet there were 5 admins that needed access.
(so they saved a few thousand on licenses, at the expense of half the employees sitting idle at any time, and getting frustrated.

allowing brazen broad-daylight murder to be endorsed by the public

Are you proposing to not allow people to voice support for the murder?

Yet somehow, saying “calm down, I’m not your dad” rarely diffuses the situation when my wife is mad at me.

Counter-example: The Beer Hall Putsch

It was the “founding myth” of the German nazi party.

Birdemic - Shock and Terror

Absolutely everything about this movie is so bad you feel second hand embarassment for the filmmaker.
The atrocious sound quality,
The cringy acting
The even more cringy writing
The 3 chords of “music” that are repeated all throughout as soundtrack
The heavy-handed preachy message
The special effects, the pacing, just…everything is as bad as it can be in a movie.

Part 4 is coming out next year.

My local bar is tended by a software engineer. It’s only open on Saturday evening cause he does it besides his day job.
But it’s great cause he does it for the love of mixing cocktails, and introducing people to great drinks from all around the world.

And he obviously doesn’t really need the money, cause when you show an interest, most drinks are on the house.
He uses a pencil, paper and a mechanical calculator to tally up the bill, which I absolutely understand when your career is in IT.

But don’t use JavaScript to add up the bill.

barely covered private expenses.

Don’t compare yourself to others, compare yourself to your past self.

This reads like a math problem.
“Assuming a linear decrease of physical age through running, in which year did the physical age match the real age?”

I once ate 6 pizzas in one sitting.
