vettnerk, to asklemmy in What's a food you forget you like? Then you eat it, and wonder why you don't buy it more often?

Green olives. None of my cooking use them as an ingredient, so once in a blue moon I remember that I like them, so I eat an entire jar with a toothpick.

At least the 1st one is likely to actually fly in a somewhat stable manner. The rest are likely too heavy, in addition to the last one having a grossly offset CoG.

vettnerk, (edited ) to asklemmy in What was the last dumb phone you had before your first smartphone?

Sony Ericsson W810i. Got it in 2007, I think. When it started to die on me in late 2009 i replaced it with an iPhone 3G, which was my first apple phone. It was also my last apple phone as I hated how locked down everything was.

EDIT: I just remembered I had a secondary dumbphone around 2012 or thereabouts. It was a dual SIM nokia of some sort that I used mainly as a backup phone in case my main ran out of battery while I was on the move.

Best quote from Eragon. So say we all.

vettnerk, to asklemmy in If another species on Earth began to develop civilization, how would you like to see them approached?

Discouragement. It was a bad idea to climb down from the trees to begin with.

I found mine here, I’m sure you’ll recognize yours: m.gsmarena.com/sony_ericsson-phones-19.php

My “salads” are technically that due to having cucumber in them. But other than that it’s mostly just cheese which I don’t like with olives.

I may have, I don’t know enough about olives to tell. I usually just buy the biggest jar of castrated green olives that I can find here in scandinavialand.

This amazing picture looks like an opening slide to WTYP.

Justin: “In this picture you can see a Lightning F1… It’s not supposed to be like that. But before we get ahead of ourself, we have to ask the fundamental question of: What is a plane.”

Correct me if I am wrong, but I was under impression that Porche lost the bid to build Tigers, though? And all the chassis they built for it were instead used for the Ferdinand.

I have exactly zero experience in what work a law office does, but I would think it’s mostly paperwork and email? If so you can do that at no startup costs.

Pick a distro (pop, mint, whatever), and install libreoffice or one of its many variants for offfice integration.

A common misconception is that linux involves a lot of coding. Sure, it can if you want to - all the hooks for programatical access are there, for example if you want to build shell scripts for automation. But you don’t need to. It’s just an option many linux users, myself included, like to take advantage of.

When it comes to convincing you, all I can say is this: It costs you nothing to try.

Now that you mention it, I find systemd messing with my DNS settings incredibly annoying as well, so I can’t help but agree on that point. At this production system at work, when troubleshooting, I often need to alter DNS between local, local (in chroot), some other server in the same cluster, and a public one. This is done across several service restarts and the occasional reboot. Not being able to trust that resolv.conf remains as I left it is frustrating.

On the newest version of our production image, systemd-resolvd is disabled.

vettnerk, to asklemmy in Excluding the obvious ones such as politics, what topics can't you stand listening to people talk about?

I don’t mind drugs. I just find people who make it their personality annoying.
