Maybe the solution has nothing to do with park benches. Maybe if people had homes, they wouldn't have to sleep in the park.

I believe there is already plans in the timeline to bring Tumblr to the fediverse.

The unstable is named Sid, after the kid next door who liked to blow up toys.

To be fair, the paid version of Davinci comes with the missing codecs. It's only the free version that people have trouble with x264/x265.

I use the hair ties from the dollar store, they're just like rubber bands but they have a layer of cloth around them. Used to get 100 for $1.

The one time you decide to do the right thing, that cable you threw out? You'll need that in almost exactly a week. Somehow it's been in the box for 4 years, but now it's needed.

Installing is easy just add:

alias updog="sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y"

to your .bashrc or .zshrc

When it was just the writers strike they had to keep going forward but no one was allowed to write gags or improvise gags. Now that the actors are striking the whole production can't go forward.

There's a high chance that the two strikes will end together and production will continue without any limitations. We might have the film delayed but I'd rather wait a bit longer for a better film.

I hope you enjoy this painstaking remaster of one of the best desktop wallpapers of all time. Now it's up to you to configure your theme to match.

Hey, just, uh, wanted to clear the air a bit. You know when you're saying "Linux," what you're probably referring to is what some folks call "GNU plus Linux," if you really want to get into the weeds of it. But don't sweat it, alright? I'm not here to be a buzzkill or anything.

See, what we call "Linux" is actually just a part of the whole thing, man. It's the kernel, the core, the... engine, you could say, of the operating system. But the GNU stuff, that's the body of the car, the seats, the steering wheel. You need both to take a drive, you know?

But look, it's not a big deal. We're all just trying to get from point A to point B, right? So, whether you're saying "Linux" or "GNU plus Linux", it doesn't change the journey. It's just semantics.

Sure, I get it. Richard Stallman and the gang over at the Free Software Foundation, they put in a lot of effort into the GNU software, and I respect that. But sometimes you gotta go with the flow, man. And right now, that flow is "Linux". It's simpler, it's what people know, and frankly, it's the Linux kernel that's making the whole thing work in the first place.

So next time you want to get technical, feel free to drop a "GNU plus Linux". Stallman would probably give you a nod of approval. But if you're just chilling out, hanging back, and you say "Linux"... well, it's all good, man. Linux is just Linux. And there's nothing wrong with that.
