Docker and git I think.

The freedom is great, and the fact that things don't change out from under me is awesome
I can use a basic or tiling window manager while still running a modern system. Updating Windows or macOS = new "improved" GUI, generally speaking. KDE and Gnome also change, but it's your choice to use/not use them, as it should be!
Started with Red Hat in the kernel 2.0 or 2.2 days, because I picked up a book+install CD at a garage sale.
Slackware on an old laptop got me through undergrad (desktop ran Gentoo, but I didn't use it much).
Switched to Debian after that, with a little Arch in grad school btw (not a huge fan
to each their own).
Running Debian now (desktop, laptop, and SBCs), but my heart belongs to Slackware.
"Noar"...
Somewhere, someone is crying into comically large novelty coffee mug.
The messaging on this topic is interesting
too doom and gloom and you can turn people off, since it seems hopeless. Too rosey, and you come across as a science-denying dolt.
The hedline+lede here seem to strike a nice balance.
The one on marijuana...simply perfect.
Congratulations! We were running laundry non-stop after babby was formed. The spit up, dear God...
I think these ones are particularly interesting because yeah it's stupid, but not entirely baseless. Garlic has antibacterial properties, as well as (I think?) antiviral (!), antifungal, and antiprotozoal properties. So it is plausible, and it seems like the reason it doesn't work is that it's additionally an irritant, which ends up stimulating mucus production and inflammation, exacerbating the problem.
Eh, but this is kinda true for all trade/niche publications?
IT publications would have, "Portal to hell messing with your wifi? Try this."
Cooking blogs
"Portal to hell, hello to flavor!"
Meanwhile, a patch shows up on the Linux kernel mailing list
"fix rng behavior: portal to hell causes /dev/random to be less secure with increased frequency of 0x06 0x06 0x06."
Some false premises in this thread
corporations are not required to maximize profits. Even if maximizing profit was mandatory, this is a pretty subjective topic
is short term profit while pissing off your customers "maximizing profit," or is sacrificing short term gains for long term customer loyalty "maximizing profit"? It's not a rhetorical question, and I think you can find examples of both.
Corporations are also not all pursuing endless growth; in addition to "growth stocks" there are "dividend stocks." Some companies aren't aggressively pursuing growth, but are making profit, and the stock reflects this. It feels almost antiquated in the "to the moon" era, but these companies do exist.
We didn't used to have left handed people either
we just had right handed people with really shitty handwriting...
Both links dead.
