I’m happy with XFCE and am looking forward to Wayland support.

“Unlucky Backup” is probably worse.

No idea. Only guess I had is that maybe it got knocked off the top of one of those 2 deck car transporter trailers.

Saw a minivan that was wedged under an overpass vertically with its front bumper on the ground.

You should have asked him if he’s planning to do that.

Humans domesticated wolves in this timeline. Imagine being in one of the dogless hellscapes.

The proliferation of competing mutually incompatible standards.

Don’t forget the GPL itself.

The Greek pantheon wasn’t known for being just or consistent. And technically, Prometheus didn’t even steal anything. The gods could still make fire as they pleased.

Prometheus pirated fire. And the punishments for piracy are worse than theft.

An opossum got into our garage a few months ago and our dogs found it. They had the poor thing cornered and hissing. I got them out of the garage and after making sure they didn’t get bit, I evicted the possum.

The dogs do everything they can to get into that garage and make a beeline for that corner every time.

Well, like Cuba without the embargo.

Pastrami and swiss on rye. Mayo and spicy mustard.

Muffaletta is a very close runner up.

Your assessment of probability is speculation

It is, but anecdote is insufficient to counter it.

Hence “are likely to be,” not “are always.”

Microsoft has been consistently “stupid” for a very long time about this one particular thing.

People who dual boot are likely to be linux newbies just trying it out. They’re more likely to blame linux when microsoft does what it does to competitors.

If Microsoft didn’t have a decades-long record of pulling shit like this, they might get the benefit of the doubt.

Lot easier to swap parts on a thinkpad.

I knew who it was before I opened it.

It kinda sucks that there’s a prime number of days in a week.
