I'm.... At a loss for words but I'll screenshot this and put everything on my bucket list

Everyone here fixing stuff with 3D printers while I am here struggling how to sew up wool silk leggings in a way that keeps them elastic and fighting for my life with darning

I've always heard promises promises give an end to those promises in the bridge of Lady Gaga's Pokerface

Thanks man, I'll try my best

Oof for someone who isn't tech savvy this was a hard read but I appreciate it!

My experience with Linux - and as I now know, probably GNU? - is limited to not pressing a button while my dad's computer at work turned on so that I would end up in not in Windows. He had one amazing game on Linux where some troll had to roll stones (I wish I could find it again). I came to work with him every now and then and was allowed to play while he would half desperately half violently try to get rid of the chaos on his desk, which consisted of about 700 pounds of paper and occasional random paper clips.

I loved these days. And the canteen's gravy with rice for some reason.

(Edit: this was in the mid to late 90s)

That's the thing, my dad was one of the first informatics people (computer based algebra in Russia and Germany) and my mom did her thesis on how to design a cigar shaped body in 3D on a computer. But they are in their mid to late 60s now and my dad went from being a professor of IT to "how do I open the internet" so my confusion is based on bias from my family. All his former colleagues also didn't stay up to date with technology and they worked for an elite university in Germany.

Anyway, good that they are alive and kicking! And glad their kicks are not so random as my folks'.

I'm sorry, and I don't want to be disrespectful or rude, but as a person who has no clue about computers I am very surprised the creator of Linux is still alive. I somehow thought he is super old and probably dead by now or at least not using the internet. I'm so sorry for my ignorance.

Edit: Thank you everyone for the many interesting replies, I've learned a lot of random stuff which I greatly appreciate!

I saw someone on the German equivalent to Craigslist selling a rooster for 5€ today. Said they had three home grown roosters and that's too many. It's a full grown rooster. I am both surprised that this is so cheap and that it's legal to just sell roosters like a second hand iPod.

I wouldn't eat soap simply because it's amphiphilic, which is why, well, it makes good soap. The molecules have a hydrophilic and a lipophilic side and this will much rather soap off and severely damage the lining of your digestive route, potentially and probably also resulting in dangerous foaming.

If you take the most simple soap that's just like potassium ions and negatively charged fatty acid residues, I'm not 100% sure but I doubt that the fatty acids want to accept a proton because they are rather stable when negatively charged, hence they won't work well to buffer the stomach acid. And again, by the time that the fatty acid thinks about accepting a proton or not it will most likely be soaping up your cells' membranes.

I assumed it's sinister for left turn but then I got confused why L was turning right (is L supposed to be for leave?)

For someone with family ties in Ukraine, being on the outside is still incredibly terrifying. Let alone that Muskfuck is now promoting AFD

What?? What do you mean with a kid became lion king?
