You can absolutely go as nuts or more nuts with this on linux. You can do all kinds of hardening steps, and centrally deploy the policies with push or pull. Microsoft has even moved towards dsc (desired state configuration).

Fascism is more about control and there's a lot of pivoting to maintain the appearance of authority. So there is a lot of hypocrisy on topics that are often claimed that they are just totally against. Fascist leaders work with highly regarded artists that will have them or that are forced to work with them. Fascists want to look cool and well put together, so art is crucial to them. Meanwhile they will say art is not a real career and will hate art that doesn't support the latest narrative.

There's not a strict black and white on the fringes of their ideologies, it's more what they can use to increase power.

I learned them and basically never use vim.

I use sed if i need to change things with a pattern, cat the file if i need to see the contents, use head or tail if its too much to fit on the screen.

If I am writing code, I use a code editor. Emacs and vim can do a lot, but they can also fuck off.

There definitely wasn't a clear BOM and wasn't close to $1 or $5

Other languages behind reverse proxies from apache httpd or nginx do not have the same memory hit. You can still blame php. Not my fault they tied their language to the webserver in a way that uses tons of extra memory.

Easy example. Have they fixed file upload behavior yet? Do they store the entire file in memory by default instead of chunking it and storing it as it comes in?

If not it's like the worst memory usage of any language possible.

If you have to go change the php.ini to adjust file upload sizes, it's not really moving forward and is decades behind other languages.

In congested cities if you don't enter the intersection when its not completely clear then you'll have to wait ~40 minutes for a chance to go across. Waymo's riders have that as one of the biggest frustrations. Then theres a gridlock behind them.

There's no winning with cars.

I am on a cycle right now where I can't sleep without ambien and 300mcg melatonin. I've struggled with falling and/or staying asleep my whole life. My brain will calm down some and ill taper off of the ambien again at some point.

Besides the long term health, i am just not a pleasure to be around if i run on no sleep.

I still have some triptans, a couple different ones in the medicine cabinet. I can go a year without thinking i might need one. They make me feel like my brain is starved for oxygen or something like that.

They do work, but if hydration, tylenol, or ibuprofen will help I'd rather use them.

Yeah I think it went away at the start of my 30s. Definitely glad it's not a worry anymore.

I can still get stress or dehydration headaches, but no constant small one that breaks through to eye stabbing with my heartbeat.

I have heard it is common for them to go away by 30s.

For a decent chunk of my early 20s i had to take amitriptyline a couple of hours before bedtime to prevent migraines. It also makes you sleep on cloud 9. I was on call at nights and there was no snapping out of the sleep pull, thats the only scenario I can think that it may not help.

Talk to a doctor about it. I have had a couple of brain scans and don't have anything up there that looks bad. It just happens to some people.

I'm glad you checked it out. It's quite a fun and absurd series.
