People mention eating it whole… I at least shave the hair off it first.

WSL is pretty good these days. Dual boot with Windows is still a pretty risky move with how easily Windows will overwrite your boot loader. I usually recommend you pick one os or the other rather than dual boot, so I’m in favor of WSL or virtualbox. Personally, I have never cared for needing to reboot just to switch operating systems. I tend to stick with one and the second one does nothing but take up disk partition space.

WSL lets you run both simultaneously without rebooting. Virtualbox lets you do the same with extra setup. Virtualbox makes it easier to do GUI setups than WSL does, and the network configuration is a little more obvious.

The best option is to get a second machine so you can run both. If that’s not an option, virtualbox is the better choice for learning. If you just want a Linux environment on your existing setup (similar to using a Mac) then WSL is usually good enough

It really bothers me that Odo didn’t choose to be the same plastic blue barrel that nearly killed Worf

Ask a project manager

They sometimes do

The Last Supper is a classic painting that has been parodied many times in movies and shows.

What’s wrong with it?

I want an instance already established, very populated, and proven to last long term, so I don’t have to create another account

Back to School, definitely. Well, not really badmouth, but I thought it was fairly mediocre.

But really I meant to praise his standup and say his movies didn’t do him justice. He was just funnier when doing his own material

His standup was definitely better than any of his movies

I see it’s mostly from the user marcus_inferno

It’s a clear pattern of missing the correct context of different communities

I think it would be wise to have a partner, first to be a backup child-watcher in case your attention focuses in one direction. And the legal witness isn’t a bad thing to have also.

You shouldn’t be driving a car in the supermarket. They do provide those motorized carts you can ram carts with though

Not everyone. But it’s definitely very overrepresented here, including some large communities of extremists that I don’t typically see elsewhere.

This is what I see from my folks. That believe anything that supports their existing views, but anything that would require them to understand something they aren’t aware of, they suddenly don’t trust the sources. They say things like “science can be used to say all sorts of things, we can’t know that they’re right this time!”

These are the same parents who taught me critical thinking when reading newspaper articles when I was a kid. Suddenly they can’t be bothered to employ the same critical thinking to articles they read today.

I still blame Facebook and the other similar social media platforms. They have catered to and encouraged the short attention spans we have today

I mean it should be fairly obvious, but sometimes a person is at home while browsing, and might like to see these. Other times they are at work while browsing and could actually get into trouble for viewing them

This is about the “not safe for work” tag, isn’t it?

I’m shocked at what an unpopular thought this is. Like… If you go out in public, there’s a very real risk that people in public will see you. If that’s a concern you have, then you should take steps to not be seen in public. To me, that would mean not making my presence obvious when visiting a bar.

Camera or not, if people are looking for you, they will find ways to look for you in public places. You should always assume you’re being watched, because you probably already are.

Received dirt on the American Democrat party from the Russians and released it during the election to help Trump.

He said he received stuff on the Republicans as well, but it was “not interesting” and didn’t publish it. Didn’t really support his stated goal of transparency.

I have such bad things to say about recruiters. They generally don’t have a clue about any of the skills related to the jobs I’m after, and they take a huge cut of the pay the entire time I’m working the job.

On the other hand, the two best jobs (highest pay and best working environment) I’ve had in my career, I got through recruiters, so I acknowledge them as a useful business when it works out. The last one has led to the company buying my contract and hiring me directly for the past 12 years

I don’t know, I think Thanos should have worn a suit

I’m not saying fan theories aren’t allowed, I just said I’m not a fan of it.

I would hardly call their outings “secret” when it involves Kira getting into costume and walking clear across the promenade before deciding the holosuite isn’t for her. I just didn’t interpret any of the details as “hints they were dating” when the simpler “friends going out to do something fun” was not only on the table, it was clearly the intention of the scene.

For the record, I didn’t see Garak and Julian as dating either. Sure, Garak may have been trying, but Julian was more enamored with the spy scenario and intrigue than Garak himself as a potential partner

Honestly, I’m not the biggest fan of the tendency to interpret platonic relationships as sexual ones. I do get the desire for more representation, but I just wish the community wasn’t so willing to ignore regular old platonic friendships.

I’m sure that comes mostly from me as a guy who puts more emphasis on strong platonic bonds than sexual relationships. But I just don’t see Julian and O’Brien’s “bromance” as a boyfriend relationship, nor did I see Kira and Jadzia’s as dating either.
