“Congratulations to Drugs for winning the War on Drugs”

It turns out the problem isn’t the drugs. It’s mostly people in bad situations needing tools to cope or escape for a while. What works more then laws and cops is more equitable wealth distributions, healthcare, reasonable living costs, cities with 3rd place communities, and education.

It is when so many people stupid together that it systematically starts kill them. Is it a 3rd party punishment? Nope, it’s FAFO on a national scale. Unfortunately it’s going to be epic in just how much suffering it causes.

I’m actually both a student of history and old. I played this as a kid.

Highlight->Middle paste has been my friend for decades now. Using it from SunOS in the 90-s to now has been a great feature. It’s the quickest way to copy and paste while I’m working fast with text or data entry.

I love having both clipboards be functional. The latest rounds of tools that have stopped being as compatible with it has been no end of problems in my workflow. I’ll copy with the keyboard, highlight some text and then paste both clipboards somewhere else.

No, using the keyboard here isn’t as fast, don’t bother making that argument, especially since ctrl-c means different things in different places on Unix style systems. Left hand stays home row while the right is forced to leave for the mouse since it’s a GUI.

I’ve had to deal with many tools that don’t respect keyboard cut/paste as well. Add in that some tools like putty or git bash on windows have ctrl-ins for paste?

Panning in CAD/design is usually click and hold middle or even a two button system (freecad), so trying to take a middle click for that isn’t buying uniformity.

The copy/paste world is already fractured enough. Keep the highlight/middle click working so we can go fast. I might be a dinosaur, but I’m a fast dinosaur.

What? No way. I despise their captive scrolling stuff. Every time I get forced onto a windows system I forget that middle mouse is a weird scrolling mode and end up wandering randomly up and down pages until I realize what happened.

The biggest limitation on the older models is RAM. There’s other issues with network contention (the Ethernet is actually a USB device on the board), raw CPU (especially gen 1 boards), but really it’s all about the RAM.

I use these kinds of boards for more hardware/embedded kinds of situations. No GUI Linux machines will easily run in 200-400MB of RAM before you start spinning up additional services or tools.

If you’re really RAM blocked you can use a more stripped down Linux install or even hop to BSD and run real lean on resources for the OS. All of these options can still run most network services or simple build/dev kinds of support systems. They could be message queue servers, run GPIO-driven hardware systems, be sensor platforms, run DNS/DHCP/PiHole kinds of systems, be a speaker driver endpoint for a larger system, bong a clock sound every hour, or whatever. That’s just what I could come up with while typing on the fly. If you start adding hardware to the IO ports it just goes nuts what even the older boards are capable of.

Cocktails. Just need some bottles.

Let’s see the coats. That sounds like a blast, especially for your doggo buddy.

They know you MUST defend the children, so it’s a way of ensuring you’ll be afraid of them. It’s just more ways to inflict cruelty on everyone else by using children as hostages against us.

A key element of narcissism is that nothing really matters except the one person. The world is basically just something that happens and should always center around them. He’s one of the biggest narcissists to ever exist so suffering and pain in others means nothing to him. It never has and never will.

I’ve brought up dating and going out to my kids because finding a partner in life really does help people be happier in the long run.

What we’ve never done is to say anyone should be married or have children. That’s 100% their choice. I’ve raised kids, I don’t need grandkids running around on my behalf. Kids are energy suckers and expensive. I love them, and am well aware of how much they cost me. No one should have that forced upon them. You do you.

Huge hugs from a dad who just wants you to be happy in your own way.

Nice work NYC on picking someone who is acting in favor of the citizens. High hopes and long term goals should both be pursued, so far and so good.

Conservatives hate learning and education because they’re in favor of slavery for the masses. No one who reads history is surprised: news at 11.

Regan did that for a long time in office. His wife was running all too much of the Executive branch.

The rules are only effective if they’re enforced.

Would you like some sulfur to go with your pseudoscience, fascism, and stupidity?

The same as any other conservative policy: “fuck you, stop us if you can”

Those early days (Quake, UT, CS). Grab a gun and go. No real levels, buying hats, or special equipment only the richest can afford.

Yeah, I’d get thrashes by good players, but not because they have different equipment or loyalty/grind/pay-to-play items. A level playing field where getting murdered was just. Those were good days.

Sometimes it’s about sending a message.

Not great, mostly because we don’t have close enough family in Canada. They’re all too many branches out on the family tree to count.

I might have filled things in wrong since I did it quickly, but it’s fun to see how governments try to balance different kinds of immigrations needs and skills.

The US needs a huge kick in the balls. We’ve become much much much too full of ourselves. Not just this one wanabee tyrant, but the whole country needs a shake down. We don’t own the world and the world doesn’t OWE us anything. We’re not better than others unless we earn it. Having a bunch of self righteous white supremacist religious nutjobs elect the world’ greediest narcissist to the presidency pretty much means we dun fucked up as a civilization and now the whole world gets to pay for it.
