None of the things you mentioned sounds even remotely plausible though. 🥲

Yes, electoral college should be abolished. It’s probably not gonna happen though, so this is a temporary band-aid solution that many states have implemented.

Nice try, FBI.

The script you provided works as expected for me. I’m on Arch, so the binary is called perl-rename, but no other modification is needed.

It’s hard to be that optimistic nowadays. I was born in India, and live in US. I’ve seen too many lunatics get elected.

The pain of drinking chamomile tea does have a masking effect.

Ok, I guess I misinterpreted what you said. My laptop only has a DC barrel port. I want to charge it using any of the high wattage GaN chargers. To do that, I’ll need something that converts the USB-C to barrel, and does the voltage negotiations. But thanks anyway. Maybe this’ll help someone else.

Hey, I’m interested in the last thing. Can you give me some details on how to do it? I’d love not to carry around the bulky stock charger.

I took a look at it. From what I understand, some of the lines in your setup are redundant. The final product seems to do basically the same job as mine. In any case, if it works, it works.

Hey, great post. I have one request. Can you maybe add some description for what the iptables entries do? I have a similar setup with a lot less iptables rules that works well for me. But I’m not an expert in networking, and am now worried that I might be missing something that can leak my home IP.

They’re just outsourcing their ethics.

There’s propaganda, definitely. Also, there are people who simply don’t care what they watch. They’ll just open Netflix and watch whatever they see on the home screen. It’s hard for them to understand why I might wanna watch some Iranian movie from the 80s.

You can cheat by doing it right after ejaculation.

At that point, you’re just paying for training Microsoft’s AI.

If smart people thought like this, we won’t have cryptography.

You do realize that tickets to the castles, memorabilia etc. would sell without them, right? And there’s no shortage of celebrities. If they don’t exist, something else will take their place in those tabloids.

Similar properties in other countries also make a ton of money. Why do you think it’s the “royal family” that brings in the money? It’s not like tourists can even meet them. What exactly do you think is the draw for normal people? Outside of some lunatics, who gives a fuck?

I never denied it. But not everyone has the same flaws. I might even have this exact flaw, but not everyone has it.

That’s bullshit. Not everyone is like this. I’m sure there are many who share my political beliefs, who fall for this shit. Maybe I do too. But for you to say that everyone does this is bullshit. This sort of thinking only serves to normalize idiocy.

1. Pretend you need to leave.
2. Pretend to drive away.
3. Pretend to remember that you actually need to be here.
4. Pretend to not be disappointed in yourself.
5. Park again.
