Taken a little out of context, but still funny.

But you couldn’t release your own projects based on this under pure MIT or Apache-2.0. Presumably you’d need to include the same restriction about selling on Atlassian’s marketplace.

There’s a loud subculture of furries who insist sex is shameful and something to apologize for.

Split meaning equal shares, or split as in each person pays for what they ordered?

Canadian checking in.

Biggest oddity to me is that the default for restaurants is one bill, and waiters get annoyed if you ask them to split it by person.

Like why would I want to either:

• do math correctly splitting the bill while trying to leave; or
• be worried I ordered something more expensive than the average and unfairly make others cover it?

It’s complete insanity to me.

I will never not be jealous of the pure joy a cat must feel stretching.

Which book?

“No, in fact Tolkien said the exact opposite. Jews are based on dwarves.”

See how that works when you don’t actually provide a source? To be honest, I have no idea if Tolkien based the races of Middle Earth on human peoples, and would’ve liked to learn if he did. But instead of actually teaching me something, I’m left here with intellectual blue balls, so thank you for a wonderful start to Locktober.

It works okay for a while, but eventually it loses the plot. The storylines are usually pretty generic and washed out.

I run Gentoo as my main distro, and have for a couple years now. It’s a pretty stable rolling release (IMO more stable than Arch), and since you’re already an advanced user, the experience should be pretty rewarding!

The wiki is great, and the installation handbook is top notch.

You get to control exactly what features each package is compiled with, so no bloat at all.

KDE 6 just landed too!

Shit, that’s where my sex drive went. Can I have it back please?

That’s a ridiculous rationale. If the Lemmy developers actually cared about the integrity of users’ posts, they wouldn’t have released software without support for cryptographic signing.

Bah, real power users only need a magnet and a pin.

Linux is whatever the Linux Mark Institute says it is.

You don’t need reproducible builds. You can get by if you trust whoever compiled it, like your distro’s maintainers or the pidgin developers.

Hiiii 😽

The risk of mis-ordering your layers is a security issue.

There are two ways to layer a VPN and tor:

1. Tor over VPN; or
2. VPN over Tor.

In the first option, you gain little. Tor already encrypts your traffic, so your ISP can’t see inside them. Technically, Tor over a VPN hides the fact that you’re using Tor from your ISP, but Tor’s snowflake does something similar if you need that.

In the second option, you’re revealing your VPN account information, which could theoretically be associated back to you. Tor adds nothing over just a VPN in this case.

Don’t mix tor plus VPN.

If you’re using tor browser without tor for some reason, carry on.
