“This is not a place of honor”

Enough. As in, don’t need more (total) than we have already. As in, we can slow the growth rate to roughly zero. This means we can have slightly fewer babies than in the past, or that more people than before are encouraged to not have babies without you jumping down their fucking throat about replacement rates and whatnot.

They implied there should be less children, not no children. Reductio ad absurdum.

I’m actually surprised at how little they spend on lobbying, even with the recent uptick. It must be the other thing, you know, our representatives are shareholders.

Damn me neither

This is the same fucking thing. It is simultaneously 12:25am MDT and 6:25am GMT where I live. If you ask my computer what time it is, it knows it is 06:25:00-06:00.

Two sides of the same coin buddy.

What you’re describing is LITERALLY the system we have. UTC is a global, coordinated time that tracks solar time to a precision of less than a second. As far as my computer is concerned, my time is UTC (technically GMT, but they both refer to the same time) minus 6 hours. We all could choose to say, “hey, wanna meet for dinner at 3AM?” and have that be a normal thing to say in my area, and an odd thing to say odd in Europe… but nobody wants that.

How stoned are you right now

I’m imagining something more fluid, where the time it is depends on exactly where you’re standing and the position of the sun in relation to it. You’d need to factor the direction you’re traveling as well as the distance whenever you went anywhere. We’d have a lot more intimate relationship with our current celestial situation.

I think they’re proposing personal time zones, where every individual’s clock shows their precise solar time, and nobody ever manages to be on time to work ever again.

Wait, why? Is the TV spying on me any more than my phone, every app I use, my desktop OS, every website I visit, all of my smart home devices, my car, my bank, traffic cameras, and my bottom left molar?

Can’t I just slap a PiHole on my home network and pretend I’ve done something about it?

I meant to reply to the parent comment

I just tried making sugar cookies, adding black sesame powder and replacing a portion of the butter with sesame oil. These cookies slap.

I spilled a half cup of 175F water on my hand and got blisters. You absolutely cannot bathe in it.

I dunno, probably very few. I wrote it myself in a week. From a quick glance, Newsboat does not support “open in browser” outside of Linux, and is unconfirmed to even run on Windows. We do. Mocassin’s interface also seems to be better suited to large screens and at-a-glance reading. Other than that they are years ahead.

I love RSS too, but gradually drifted away from it over the years. After the Reddit emigration I started getting back into it, and just published a super basic TUI feed reader if anyone is interested.

It’s called moccasin

Seriously. He can’t NOT publicly repeat every technical term that he hears, usually with next to no actual understanding.

Often used internally in software development to denote things like test files. feature.js might be your code, and feature.test.js would contain tests for that code which your testing framework would run automatically based on the filename.
