Good point. But rationing continued in the UK until 1954 so it did affect them.

Boomers made that bland war time food linger. They were children during and just after WW2 so it was part of their childhood nostalgia and they fed it to their own kids. Also we’ve had Indian/ Chinese restaurants in the UK for a while but they were mostly just in major cities at first so the average person still had little exposure to foreign or exotic food until the late 1970s/ early 1980s.

Came here when the Reddit 3rd party app threat started looming, loved it and never went back.

Sure, Lemmy doesn’t have the same variety and amount of content that’s on Reddit but that’s because it’s a smaller and newer platform along with the fact that not all instances federate with each other (which is great).

I still get my scrolling urge fulfilled and presented with random memes and news that I’m interested in without the data harvesting factor which is perfect for me.

Slackware. Horrible experience.

Then Ubuntu.

Now Debian.

Was LFS a bit too much?

Can’t tell if GIF that’s not moving or meme without text.

I don’t understand how they talked the court down from rape to sexual abuse.

I’m from the UK and thought these had to be fake til I saw Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch.

Nope, all real.

There’s a town called Barrow-in-Furness which officially has the dashes in it.

I had the Pinebook Pro. It was pretty good, solidly built, had a 1080p screen and could handle Openshot video editor, web browsing and video playback. All I needed.

I didn’t have it hooked up to an external display but according to the website it can handle 4K playback. Mainly used it for listening to music in Cmus whilst browsing in Firefox.

Battery life was pretty good, about 10 hours IIRC but mine just stopped booting after I left the battery dead for a few months.

Might buy another one though https://pine64.com/product-category/pinebook-pro/

Are you still at it?

Nose! Is that antisemitism?

I used to have to tell my female friend to put the lid down when she stayed over. My cat loves drinking from the toilet so if the lids up when I open the door and I don’t catch him in time he’ll just dunk his head in it.

You should really put it down when you flush too which minimises the amount of fecal or urine particles that get into the air.

I sir am a Linux engineer and resent your insinuation that I’m a programmer.

Debian with XFCE. Lightweight, clean and stable.

Oh God, please tell me that Lemmy users are not officially called Lemmings
