Yeah, as fun as it sounds to jump on the bandwagon and shit on this app, I don't hate it. Especially if you actually go to the appstore page and look at the intended audience. Saying "lol git gud n read" is being pretty ableist to like, at least half the groups on that list.

To be fair, most of what I've seen of Chinese cuisine looks like dog yack, so I think we got the better end of the deal.

My GF, who likes to make a lot of handmade gifts, says she understands craft stores like Hobby Lobby (which this is) putting put stuff out early, since other crafters are probably starting their projects around this time and might need a few months to get them ready.

But this shit better not cross over into regular retail stores.

Legit question, if I don't believe in 'Free Palestine', but I do believe in 'Fuck Isreal', am I an ally or an asshole?

At least 132 games that theoretically should work, but because of bad/broken implementation don't, and 28 games where the linux community has been told explicitly to f- off.

So obviously I'm an idiot, I thought GoonCaves was the group people posted pictures of computer rooms overflowing with empty coke bottles, cigarette butts, fast food containers, and the occasional piss jug. What group am I thinking of?

EDIT: NeckbeardNests, that's what I was thinking of. Now see, that's just wholesome internet content.

Thanks, I threw up a little.

You awake in a darkened room. Your wrists and ankles are secured to the heavy metal chair upon which you sit. You wrack your brain for answers as to how you got here but all you can remember is being tazed, and a white van.

A man, his face obscured by shadow approaches, and points the barrel of a gun to your face. He speaks in a gravelly voice:

"Jeans? Or Beans? Jeans... Or Beans..."

The the Arch software repos are incredible and the Arch Wiki is, quite frankly, a work of art that should be celebrated with the same reverence as the Mona Lisa or David's uncircumcised cock.

But anyone recommending Arch to a Linux newbie needs a psych evaluation.

I've lost count of the number of times I've read stories to the effect of, "yeah, a regular package update bricked my desktop, but I just rolled my face across the keyboard and recompiled the offending software and got back to work, no big deal."

Cool. I'm so glad you can do that my guy, I really am. But how the hell do you expect average computer user to figure that out? The first time a software update leaves them at a command prompt with some cryptic GDM error message or a Nvidia kernel panic or something, they're going running back to Billy Gates' warm walled garden embrace. Shit, I like to think I'm half competent with Linux and I'd shit myself if that happened to me.

EDIT: Sorry, @[email protected], I didn't nessicarily mean to direct any of that to you specifically, it's sort of just my standard copy pasta whenever I see Arch reccomded.
