Is this old? Is this what old feels like?

Just put Tumbleweed on my laptop because I was sick of Windows 11 (I used Linux in the past but haven't used it for many years). I have an Elan 04f3:0903 Fingerprint reader which is listed as supported here https://fprint.freedesktop.org/supported-devices.html Don't know how to get it working though, the Tumbleweed user fingerprint configuration I can't get working and fprintd-enroll seems to work better but all I get from fprintd-verify then is "verify-no-match (done)"

Do I need a testing branch of something or am I just doing something wrong?

There already is for the president, it's the emoluments clause, they decided to wipe their butt with it 8 years ago.

Beautiful enough that it distracts from the shoes lol, but seriously you did great, do they come in extended sizing?

Lol, I don't think the alchemists were planning on sharing the technique if they found it.

Easy, you have a very different idea of what the "nation" in "national security" and "national interests" is than they do.

The internet has ruined me, I was worried this was going to cover actual mallard duck courtship.

Honestly this was magically delightful though.

Everyone seeing this meme and talking about Turkish delight and not talking about how they seem to think the plot of Les Mis is Jean Valjean stole a load of bread because omg, bread is so good.

If you look at the description of the data ie. That falls are considered to be gaining altitude not losing altitude, they seem to be referring to distance from solid object connected to ground not distance from ground or sea level. So mountains and buildings don't count unless you jump off of it.

They might have them but I assume they vaccinate the chickens against salmonella which the US refuses to bother with and you don't get e coli from the inside of meat, you get it from contamination.

[–] kerrigan778 3 points 3 days ago

Salmonella can be killed at less than 140 if it's for long enough, you can sous vide chicken reasonably safely down to 135 or maybe even push it a little lower. HOWEVER this will not be medium rare. Medium rare is 130. 135-140 are solidly medium, barely a blush of pink at that temp really.

People somehow still surprised by Switzerland being neutral on Naziism

 

I don't remember a lot of details but I remember the human race ends up allying itself with a seemingly friendly alien race that agrees to give humanity advanced medicine and technology, but with the goal of slowly wiping out humanity through slowly making the species sterile. It follows a couple that is trying to conceive but has so far been unable to and the overlords keep reassuring them thR everything is fine just keep trying but the woman does digging and figures out what is happening but it's already too late. I think there is a time travel story where humanity is prevented from either coming into contact with the aliens in the first place or is warned away from making the deal.

Thank you thank you, it's driving me crazy.
