The Weirdest Linux Bug Ever Discovered
You've seen a bunch of weird bugs on Linux but I think this is one of the strangest, the can't print on tuesday bug, yes that is an accurate description of w...YouTube
Some of the emails I get are truly sad reflections of the complicated and rather sorry state of things we are in. Like this.
(also, apparently #curl is used in another popular game)
"Rainbow 6 Siege Activation issue"
It’s weird when two things pop up around the same time, looking the same. Even more weird when one is a crypto start-up with a billion dollar valuation. And the other an under-funded non-profit in the Fediverse.
That’s the story of an unlikely couple: #Farcaster and #Newsmast.
Both built around channels, or communities. The success of Farcaster shows the potential in the #Fediverse.

An unlikely couple
Farcaster, meet Newsmast. It’s weird when two things pop up around the same time, looking the same. Like Hollywood releasing two versions of the same story, in the same year.Michael Foster (Patchwork Blog)
the similarities are there (though I think the basic idea is very similar to, say, FB groups and subreddits). But more important, it seems to me, are the differences. In Farcaster, everything from storage to content to channel creation are financialized.
As with crypto vs. open source in general, it's a question of whether making the economic layer explicit will attract or repel people.

I recently learned that Epicurus was actually not all that into wild abandon, but rather into healthy living, hanging out with friends, and managing expectations.

Steven Moffat has always been "astonished" by how popular his Doctor Who episode 'Blink' became.
Initially, it was supposed to be a "big budget blockbuster episode, with CGI heavy aliens".
However, he was told at the last minute that his budget had been drastically cut, the two lead actors were unavailable, and his episode could only use minimal locations.
As a result, "I had to rewrite my entire script in the back of a taxi in 45 minutes, just making something up."
Moffat says that he "felt no pressure, because the Doctor isn't in it, so nobody will like it."
To his amazement, it has been "talked about for years, and people constantly compare to it, which is astonishing."
Moffat has since adopted the "less is more approach. Sometimes, the power of the imagination is your greatest ally. Keeping people guessing."

‘So the Aesir commissioned a giant to build a wall. If he delivered the pizza in over 30 minutes it would be free, but if he did it on time he would get the sun, the moon, and Freya. He was initially on schedule due to the aid of his horse. Loki turned into a female horse to distract it. The pizza was free, and Loki gave birth to an 8-legged horse’

Opinion On Kitchen Knives:
I'm looking for advice on buying a set of replacement knives for my kitchen. I've had the set we've been using (Ginsu serrated) for some years now and would like to get myself something more effective and sharp for everyday use. One look at Amazon and the huge number of blades and brands out there has shown that my knowledge is inadequate on the subject. I want some low maintenance blades that will keep an edge for a long time. Steel? Ceramic? Titanium? Brands? Someone who knows this stuff and can point me in a reasonable direction to start at without bankrupting my home budget please throw some suggestions at me?

If there's a Sur la Table in your area that offers classes, Knife Skills is usually offered once or twice a month, and it's the least expensive class in the lineup.
I'd have to join Instagram or something to offer video coaching.

I loved living in the Mt Pleasant neighborhood across from the Zoo where I was awakened each morning by the din the monkeys made. Raucous, but not at all annoying. It's a great town to live in. 😀

in reply to Joshua Lee • • •Thanks Brodie, I love this video! From the good old times a few years into working at #Canonical. #CUPS already used by every distro for several years, but not all apps sent jobs in PDF format yet, several, like OpenOffice (predecessor of #LibreOffice) still sent PostScript, standard of old #Unix times. And printers still needed drivers and some manufacturers made (usually closed-source) ones, and everyone with an integration more awkward than the other ...
Happy Tuesday!
