Our physics department used KDE managed over network shares implemented by one professor in his free time, in complete defiance of the rest of the university which used windows.
Even now they're still holding out strong, whilst Microsoft eats the rest of the university alive.
(sidenote: I get it, tech support in Linux is vritually non-existent, whilst tech-support in Windows is everywhere)
Octave FTW. Matlab is such a corporate cesspool
You can't use racial slurs or derogatory words, but you don't actually need to resort to such profanity to communicate a point.... and I feel that if you do, then you probably are worth filtering out.
Eh, as long as you're not spreading western propaganda you can pretty much say what you want. Fuck Russia!
Everyone is just 2 Kevin Bacon's away from severe alcohol dependency.
The one thing I like about Starmer is that he doesn't try to be funny. He tries to be a politician. A bad one. One that inherited a broken system. One who is also now under fire from criticism of corruption. But he doesn't shy away from it. He attends interviews where he gets regularly roasted for his bad performance, and he trucks on.
I don't like him, but I respect what he tries to be.
It's a miracle any of us are functioning at all. Sometimes my mum tells me how she feels bad for the childhood that we had growing up, but I usually tell her that: since we didn't die, she did a good job; and since we're healthy working adults, she did a great job.
I hope not. My hands tremor when they say they find a politician "funny".
When you're alone and life is getting you lonely you can always go,
Crown town!
Just listen to the trumpet as it vibrates through the tushy
Linger in the cushion of a faceful of that hiney
Happy again....
I realize a lot of people don't like to be alone with their thoughts. I'm fine. Usually there's a song playing if I'm not distracted, or I'm looking to the future to make plans.
Others, I tend to find, are far more in tune with their subconscious which appears to be saying nasty things to them the moment they're alone.
I had a bad childhood (like many), but I think my coping mechanism was to escape to fantasy (later books, games, art), and as a result I think I trained myself to not spend too long listening to my feelings. It probably is disassociation, but I don't see it as a bad baseline to have.
Ah I see, you're baiting me. Have a good day, sir!
