lolcatnip, to memes in Your mix tape isn't fire, it's smouldering at best

Strangers who use public spaces absolutely owe other people their consideration. It’s part of the price of admission to a public space. It’s not enforceable in practice but I’d be surprised if a certain level of being inconsiderate is even legal in most public spaces.

IMHO you would have been within your rights to yank that guy’s console out of his hands and smash it.

Of course the risk escalating wouldn’t be worth it, but you’d have the moral high ground at least.

Signs like that wouldn’t be necessary if we weren’t living in a hypercapitalist dystopia.

Funny, she doesn’t look Klingon.

Oh, the horror!

Ok, I just reread it. I don’t see what you think I’m missing. You mean an improperly written find command misbehaving? The fact that a different date format could prevent a bug from manifesting doesn’t seem like much of an argument.

But $(date) does return a string with spaces, at least on every system I’ve ever used. And what’s so bad about the possibility of spaces in filenames? They’re slightly inconvenient in a command line, but I haven’t used a commuter this century that didn’t support spaces in filenames.

One rotor vs two, human anatomy vs Klingon?

IIRC there’s an episode of Enterprise where Ferengis try to capture the crew to sell them as slaves

Ok but they definitely do. Quark might not be the most reliable commentator.

Why is Lib capitalized when Linux is case sensitive and Lib files aren’t a thing?

They really missed an opportunity to say “to have been continued”.

Although they do practice slavery and piracy.

lolcatnip, to linux in Laptop with long runtime

One rule of thumb I discovered when doing research about a year ago is that AMD chips are generally way better than Intel chips when it comes to power consumption.

“Paying” for tax cuts makes sense in the context of changing budgets while trying to keep them balanced. But no money is ever spent on tax cuts. It’s spent on the public infrastructure and services you mentioned. If you properly account for the money as being used to pay for public goods, then saying it’s also used to pay for tax cuts would be double counting.
