that’s when the two scales collide…

‘fucking cold’

it’s your fault. you’re the one that left the best part on top.

you have a bright future ahead of you in for-profit food service at public schools. the only thing missing is the taco sauce ketchup.

i had the spindle adapter to put on a stack of 45s, and also a simple disc that fit down it and just allowed one to sit on the turntable at a time. i didnt’ need to use these snap-in adapters.

it looks like cachyos just makes available anything in arch’s repos that worked for them at that time.

any upgrade or update can ‘break’ something.

mint does have an upgrade path from one major version to the next. the upgrade tool might not be available immediately upon the release of the next version, but in your case it has been around awhile.

backups are, of course, your responsibility, as is any unexpected manual customizations or software added from outside mint repositories.

both. and all your friends and ‘friends’, too.

i have a couple dozen older systems sitting around here, mostly 2nd to 4th gen–a few newer, a few older. that i cannot even give away. i’m gonna end up binning all but the ‘best’ 5 or 6 this spring when the recycle truck makes its annual trek here.

throw it up on ebay, get most or all your ‘investment’ back. just make it the cheapest comparable BIN.

the “real id” marked state id and dl also do, but have also been ignored by the police state.

people have proved their status or citizenship only to be assaulted and detained anyway…

so, FUCK OFF.

so they also chose the venue? that venue??

like this DoJ would actually follow laws that get in the way of carrying-out the rapist-in-chief’s (also illegal) orders.

in my rural part of the u.s., the telco only sells dsl to a max of 10 mbps (and as slow as 384kbps if you’re at the end of the signal’s reach–at which point they also charge you more for the shit-tier speeds)… even if you’re literally next door to their central office… and even if they don’t have fiber down your street (which is their reasoning for the artificial limit–to push people towards fiber so they can pull the copper).

when i worked for an ‘authorized agent’, our payments from the carrier were based on number of signups or contracts, and not at all on the cost of phones associated with them.

televisions of the near future when you first turn them on: “Internet connection and account required to complete initial product set up.”

gonna call those turds tomorrow to make sure the one phone we got from one of their retailers is unlocked. and then bitch (again) about us purposefully paying full retail for it to avoid payments and a contract, and having the agent forge (!) a contract for it anyway after-the-fact (for a dollar) so they could get the commission.

and when they don’t find anything, they’ll make something up.

you must complete the quest with your love on a holiday, during the hours of 7 and eleven, while carrying a diamond shamrock. it has to be a kwik trip and you must travel in a circle, k?

… which, in firefox, is either off by default or can be switched off.
