My mind just played out a little skit.

in a library

Librarian is standing at the front desk, doing front desk things. A man enters, driipping wet, comic injuries such as a black eye, fake bandages etc, kelp draped around him. He walks in, looks at librarian meaningfully, stalks off into the library without a word. Stalks back up to the front desk, and presents this book and a library card.

That tracks.

At that point, no license will help you, because they’re outright ignoring the law.

It’s not like these licenses require approval by any regulatory board. Remember you can write “all rights reserved” on any of your copyrightable work and extend no license to anyone whatsoever, or you can voluntarily release your work into the public domain and relinquish your copyright entirely, or anything in between.

Surely there are people who bought Chromebooks for college? Or boomers who bought the $245 Chromebook instead of the $285 Win10S manufactured ewaste laptop?

Name me a feature SteamOS has that Bazzite doesn’t.

Come out to the coast, we’ll get together, have a few laughs…

So, my understanding of auroras is, the planet’s magnetic field draws particles emitted by the sun toward the poles, and as those particles interact with the atmosphere they glow. So without a star and thus without solar wind, where do the aurora come from?

I can burp. But not during a swallow. Esophagus is half-duplex.

I’ve always had it with soda, and I thought I had swallowed in such a way that the CO2 was all trying to fizz out at once. Feels like you’ve stubbed your esophagus.

I think you’ll find that community is exactly that. I forget which it is, I’ve long since blocked it.

I learned a lot from Raspberry Pi tutorials; that’s where I got my start.

Bazzite might be a bit of a tough one to get your hands dirty in; it’s an immutable distro, it locks down the guts of the OS kind of like Android does. Useful for gaming appliances, not so much for learning to sysadmin.

The terminal automatically saves the commands you’ve typed in. Type “history” into your terminal.

It’s been a whole lot easier since bitch left town…

They’re imagining the community (the subreddit) as a space one enters by navigating to the community’s main page, and “leaving” it is going to do other things.

A major difference I noticed with Lemmy from my time on Reddit is communities aren’t quite as rabid about strict adherence to their topic or gimmick. r/whatisthisthing banned me for seven days once for elaborating what an E6B flight computer is for. Because “This community is for IDENTIFYING the thing, not DISCUSSING the thing!” Not…so much of that around here.

I suspect getting pissed off is the point.

One of the rules of that community is “post before you leave.” People put “rule” in the post to indicate they’re complying with that rule.

16 inches is the maximum diameter of the shell. They’re about as big around as a man’s chest. There’s video on Youtube of a man squeezing down the barrel of one of these guns.

“Caliber” in naval guns actually refers to the length of the barrel in multiples of its bore. USS North Carolina’s main guns are 16 inch, 45 caliber. Which means they’re 45*16 inches =720 inches / 12 inches to a foot = 60 feet long. The Iowa class’ guns are 16 inch 50 caliber, they’re about 7 feet longer.
