Yeah, I had an old gay Navy veteran who was always trying to come onto me.

My mentor at the time was an old lesbian, retired RN.

The stories they told were both amazing and horrifying.

making sure to escalate things that will affect tens of millions of people because you don't want to end up in court -- and I don't say this lightly -- is straight-up evil.

Very true.

What is with this end-times porn?

I really wish people who believe in such nonsense would be shunned by society at large. These people are divorced from rationality, reality, and reason.

To be honest, most of the internet is dead anyway.

The good stuff is here in the Fediverse and there are a few havens out there where people can come together.

I can't touch sugar alcohols.

If I even look at them, I'll spend the next week on the toilet.

I have to avoid a lot of the low fat/low carb foods because they use this. Also almost anything sweetened with monkfruit has this in it.

It's my understanding that X.org has some fundamental security issues that can't be fixed. Is that correct?

That's every day that ends in a "y".

Yeah, the ones with dead ports become part of my network as either storage or some sort of home server.

Absolutely!

I love giving old hardware a new life.

Once I've finished tinkering, and if it's fully functional, I give them to poor families who can't afford to buy a laptop for their kids.

Sadly, there are a lot of those here in Appalachia.

I'll ~~make Debian servers out of~~ recycle your old intel Macs for you! Just pay to ship them to me. 🥰

They'll just pretend like they don't know each other when they cross paths at divorce court - just like they do at the liquor store.

No, I didn't.

I use an anonymous YT client, and wasn't aware it did that.

I want an eye replacement with a few extra ~~opsins~~ options, and some EM sense like what birds have

That's possible, but our brains haven't evolved to interpret anything outside of the visible spectrum.

Hypothetically, we could guide human evolution by introducing such tech into newborn babies for several generations.
