@wackJackle love how this is going from "this is inevitable, this is the futuuuuuuure" to "we're up shit creek without a paddle"

I double-checked this on a couple of Xitter stat sites and it's true. Average views of the main AfD account dropped 90% and average engagement dropped by 60%. This is commercial social media for you: bots, damn bots and Russian bots.

We’ve been talking about this for years. None of these far-right movements are organic.

Another absolute doozy: The ridiculous sexist attitude towards the series being an action/adventure? No, depicting the same amount of action that was in the original SHOUJO MANGA would not somehow make it a shonen? Women can write action sequences too which is evident in the WORK YOU'RE ADAPTING?

i know some people on here don't use twitter anymore but I would highly recommend reading the absolutely DISASTROUS interviews coming from the production staff of From Far Away... they clearly don't fucking care about this series one bit and just thought they could get away with coasting on an IP

Now if glibc could remove non-UTF-8 behaviors that are obsolete but can still be triggered by mistake. (To get an idea of major distro reality: Ubuntu is young enough to have always defaulted to UTF-8, Red Hat switched in 2002 and Debian, unreasonably late, in 2007.)

Ironic how the term "trickle down" is now mostly used to describe how the increase in price of certain goods causes inflation across the prices of a much broader set.

@thejessiekirk nevermind, I've re-read your forum post and I think I figured out what happened. I've replied in the forum with a more detailed answer, but my guess is that your grub.cfg file was not regenerated after you installed the kernel. Generate it by hand or have it generated […]

Highly motivated to find folks with Whistle InterJets -- late-90s 486 SOHO Internet appliances (IBM bought and sunsetted it, and sold off the whistle.com domain). People with long ISP memories may remember it because it was resold by ISPs in US /Europe / […]

A live Whistle InterJet, next to a Whistle-branded coffee cup. About the size of a large toaster, it features a green LCD screen and a blue rubbery keypad. The LED in the upper left is orange because the unit is running on its own internal UPS battery.The case of a unit is open, showing a vertical mainboard with two 32 MB SIMMs, a 486 covered by a heat sink, and a transcend 8 GB IDE flash. The main board is plugged into a horizontal backplane on the bottom.

@thejessiekirk OK, can you paste the contents of your grub.cfg?

@thejessiekirk what bootloader are you using?

The good folks at #Gentoo are looking for new infrastructure sponsors. They're mostly looking for rack-space, power and connectivity and they'll provide the hardware. Preferably outside the US, but not necessarily.

One interesting detail I noticed is that the animators chose to have no shading on the characters, only lines and flat colors. It makes the aesthetic reminiscent of '70s and '80s animation from the likes of Don Bluth, Ralph Bakshi and John Halas. I think it's a deliberate choice given the fairy […]

@dale I mean, what were the chances of having two visionary bands with the same name in wildly different genres.
