I'm more concerned about the implications of the word "robbing". I mean, I'm hoping there's consent happening here ...

Prisoners should still get basic nutrition. Food is a human right, even for convicted criminals.

z00s ,

If that's all they get for a single meal, then it's still nutritionally deficient. You can argue exactly where the line falls, but "as long as they don't starve to death" isn't it.

Which tastes better?

Now this is the kind of weird encouragement that there needs to be more of out in the world

I know two that are about relationships:

"Long distance is the wrong distance"

and

"Crazy bitches fuck like tigers"

I suspect it will replace Ubuntu as the new noob distro, which is a good thing. Doesn't run as fast on older hardware as mint w cinnamon, but that's not a big deal. I'm hoping the new DE will improve that.

Love how feature rich it is, especially love the switch to toggle tiling windows on the desktop.

What counts as a "legitimate" argument?

Most governments that allow it do so because they get mega bucks in tax revenue from it.

On the other hand, it destroys peoples' lives and facilitates money laundering on an embarrassingly industrial scale.

The counter argument is that the government then uses those tax dollars to build hospitals, schools and roads.

It's up to you if you think that's a legitimate reason :shrug:

Here's the education of the guy who heads the think tank that made this bullshit up:

Roberts earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in history from the University of Louisiana at Lafayette, a Master of Arts in history from Virginia Tech, and a Ph.D. in American history from University of Texas at Austin.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kevin_Roberts_(academic)

So basically, a history professor with 3rd rate qualifications from 4th rate universities.

No experience or knowledge in politics whatsoever.

If this is the garbage that actually sparks off the next US civil war, I will lose my fucking mind at the stupidity of it all.

O rly? Do tell how they are so influential-- without quoting their marketing material.

And if they have any influence whatsoever, frankly that makes it worse.

There are plenty of first tier universities in the US. Shame this guy couldn't get in to any of them

Lol no proof

Lol it's called reading comprehension, you should try it. Lol

Python, but we're more just acquaintances, I wouldn't say I know them well or anything

Same reason I wear a brown onion on my belt

It's not just nostalgia. I absolutely want a phone I can throw at a wall and put back together without it costing me money.

How should I change my polite behavior to be more accommodating?

My parents raised me to always say "yes sir" and "no ma'am", and I automatically say it to service workers and just about anyone with whom I'm not close that I interact with. I noticed recently that I had misgendered a cashier when saying something like "no thank you, ma'am" based on their appearing AFAB, but on a future visit...

Are you in the UK? I'm an Aussie and I've always considered "mate" to be gender neutral. I've seen all combinations of men and women saying it to each other.

Cheap labour under a command economy is hard to beat, I'll grant you that. But the best counter to that is to focus on high quality construction, like Toyota does, for example

z00s ,

Agree, except for the tens of thousands of dollars thing

People who believe in God will still scream during a fatal car accident. Belief in religion has nothing to do with the natural survival instinct.

You're trying to set up an idiotic no-win situation that has no bearing on reality.

"it's different"

No, if a test has no possible win outcome, then it's not a true test.

"Heads I win, tails you lose" is not proof of your ability to predict a coin toss.

By your logic, all Christians would commit suicide with a smile on their face.

Stop trying to straw man with unrelated metaphors

z00s ,

You don't get it. Your "test" is not a fair test. Your making shit up to justify your feelings. You're either 14 and think that you're smarter than the rest of the world, or your just really, really stupid.

Either way I'm not going to continue arguing with a pigeon who thinks it's playing chess.

z00s ,

I'm 14 and this is deep

I've been saying all this shit for years. Fuck John Howard and fuck greedy boomers.

Housing is a human right.

I already do, I'm a teacher. But if I could do anything to get paid, I'd run free English classes and conversation clubs for refugees

When was the last time you felt helpless in life?

I'm 24 and dealing with high blood pressure. I've seen five doctors, had countless tests, and they all say the same thing: "Take these pills and try to reduce pressure in your life." It's as though my blood pressure and heart rate have minds of their own, fluctuating freely without any reason....

z00s ,

OP you sound exactly like me at that age. I was diagnosed with kidney disease at 16 and got a transplant after one year of dialysis at age 27.

Things were amazing after that but now I've got terminal cancer at age 41.

Make the most of everything you've got while you still can.

Does anyone else think extroverts are being incredibly fragile when they post about how they “can’t” go to the movies or a restaurant alone?

z00s ,

That’s kinda what I do too. I acknowledge it as an effort that needs to be managed and have strategies to recharge afterwards.

I don’t hate being around people but it does take a lot of energy.

z00s ,

Cya?

Number 7 is gonna be a real question one day. Wonder whether it’ll be pneumatic tubes or matter transporters that gets there first?

Janus, a simple text editor

For the past few months I have been working on a simple windows notepad like text editor. It’s nothing special, but when I first switched to linux I looked around and it took me a while to find leafpad. Unlike leafpad however, Janus uses gtk3, a much more modern toolkit then gtk2, it can display and modify binary data, and it...

Thanks, Hugh

No no, they mean “artificially interesting” rice

Bluetooth is like the SpongeBob “repeating then saying something different” meme where you go through the whole annoying pairing process, then it plays through the PC speaker anyway

z00s ,

Why are you personally offended by Bluetooth being bad?

Won’t =/= can’t
