Having seen the YouTube, I’ve learned the ONLY chant for the train queue is “im-ho-tep! Im-ho-tep!”

Same.

Then I went to work for the company whose code Solaris was derived from. Back in time almost!

Comically, now, my C and Solaris experience is a marketable skill for reliable employment, albeit less fun.

Have you tried the lutris/steam options? I’d love to know there are options if people can’t avoid it.

Excellent summary.

Ah, Webster – the guy who rewrote American and the Dictionary that first equated Figurative with Literal.

It’s logically unsound.

Remembering that Dictionaries don’t tell you what’s right, only what’s popular at best, and that Webster is about the worst there, It’s not a great reference. And if we trusted the mob to decide how to spell and pronounce words, you and I would be MUCH better at the head-wobble – popularity as a mechanism for evolution would have refactored a LOT of pronunciation and spelling a while ago.

The abbreviation of “until” is " 'til ". I know this because it’s an abbreviation, and “until” doesn’t have two Ls.

I worry when families from economically depressed areas do this bullshit. Like, what’s the return on cosplaying white trash at great expense?

Oh geeze.

Some people have test environments that aren’t their prod environment.

Others stick with a distro that has better validation and/or long-term support.

Please don’t blame the kernel devs.

Everything’s better than Systemd.

Hell, I bruised my hip bone once at a martial arts seminar. The next-level pain I felt from just that make me worry for when I’m dumber/older and need a replacement.

Looking at trending, it’s 50-50 I’ll be fine into my 80s or be 4-joints-bionic by 70. Nothing in-between.

Consider that once the laser you, your astigmatism is gone: even if you need corrective lenses, they’re much simpler than they could be.

As an example, my twin got his eyes done when he was rocking some serious coke-bottle lenses and working the fancy FAANG jobs and livin’ large. He’s had a coupla tune-ups, but never for the astigmatism. (and, even now, they’ve tuned one eye for close focus and the brain still copes, drastically reducing his need for presbyopia lenses)
