I do something similar, but I guess scorched earth edition:

• Only use firefox, no chrome or chromium variants

• Never signed in to my google account (only have it to keep a gmail forward going for old ass subscriptions)

• Have firefox configured to only keep whitelisted sites’ cookies and data between restarts - google is not on that list

• uBlock Origin

The last several months I started seeing that youtube screen “enable history to see recommendations” blank page when first landing, as if it was a punishment to me. It’s not. I remember all the channels I like, and it’s easy enough to keep checking back. So that blank screen is actually a nice bonus to me.

Ten pills once is chump change

When I was a patient at the VA pain clinic for a couple years, I could fart ten pills on any given day.

Lighten up, Francis.

jumping won’t impress her

Unless it’s jump humping.

As soon as I read this I read the rest of your comment in Al Gore’s voice, ca 2k SNL, lol.

ITT I wish those that can recall would name and shame.

Was the transition into management easy for you, or was it a slow acceptance?

Funny thing I’ve been driving for 30+ years, and have never had a formal driving test:

• Permit at 15: No tests, only restriction was to have a licensed passenger in-vehicle

• License at 16: Had driver’s ed in school, state’s driving test waved, and license transferred to other states without any new driving test

• Motorcycle license: Took a safety course while in the military, state added endorsement without any test, which also transferred out-of-state

• Heavy vehicles: Trained on military 5-ton/deuce+0.5/Frontloaders/HMMWVs - all kinds of heavy equipment - no formal tests, only unit sign-off (even on civilian roads)

• The kicker: I now live in a US state where a driver license is good with no re-testing till age 64

Gonna suck when I actually do have to take a test. Hopefully there will be sane infra to go completely driverless by the time I get that old.

If your grandmother dies at age 102, Fox news would blame it on immigrants, somehow.

There was a post about an older dude that went camping with his girlfriend and popped an ol’ blue to get freaky. They wrapped up and fell asleep, but the dude woke up 4 hours in excruciating pain - his erection had never gone down. They rushed down the mountain to the hospital, another two hours later… ER docs told him it was too late, amputation time.

So it’s always a good idea to stay awake long enough to flush the pipes with a good piss to avoid a uti, the story just reinforced that notion for me about 1000% more.

Checkmate. We’re watching you.

I love it too, I buy some of the wallaby stuff now and again.

Just don’t eat a ton in any given day.

Edit - Oh shit:

In past warnings, the FDA notes: “If you’re 40 or older, eating 2 ounces of black licorice a day for at least two weeks could land you in the hospital with an irregular heart rhythm or arrhythmia.”

Yeah some kind of fucky configuration.

The root is:

http://archive.ubuntu.com

Which, if the ubuntu link is clicked, then drops you into the the real archive root… but the link is “appended” to the new path, but the same link is reproduced in the “new” folder. Click it again, and another segment added to your current path even though you’re in the same root archive, ad nauseam.

I couldn’t find this misconfiguration on stackoverflow, which leads me to believe someone at ubuntu is doing something especially special here.

Intact? And if not, is there a lot of smacking involved?

“Could not fetch embedded watch page”

This does not look like a look like Java Runtime Environment.

I    don’t    use    an    ide,    but    I    wrote    a    script    that    replaces    any    space    I    type    with    four.

I    haven’t    worked    out    all    the    use    cases    yet,    though.
