I never watched Game of Thrones for the simple reason that I fell asleep reading the first book.

    @ElleGray Okay now I know of four people that drinks tea with milk (cream).

    I am once again getting the urge to install EndeavorOS but I... only use it to run firefox on it.

    Seriously, this is the biggest reason I stopped using Linux; I don't actually use it for anything but browsing the web since gaming just is so much more convinient on Windows and I'm not into Linux for ideological reasons (yet).

    I ALSO stopped because the number of bat shit racist libertarians on Linux forums I frequented were souring the experience. But that's another matter.

    My phone suddenly downloaded a bunch of games this morning "to help me".

    Luckily I found the built in bloatware responsible and could disable it.

    Is it weird that I find it weird how people can argue that a system that sells your privacy for profit and tries to force you to consume against your will is "freedom"?

    So apparently "X" has been hard to connect to for almost a day since they finally migrated twitter.com to x.com.

    I have not been digging further but what people tell me sounds like servers being well over capacity and timing out.

    The classic Greek Pantheon is just extra dysfunctional.

    But then as Red from OSP puts it (paraphrasing): The Greek gods were representatives of what was true, not what was good; Classical Greece was absolutely horrible to women so therefore the gods were, too.

    What the heck is it with spell check in Firefox?

    Another one:

    Provisioner is apparently not a word, but "provisioned" is. One would think the first one is much more common?

    @WhyNotZoidberg@topspicy.social avatar

    @ddlyh I admit English is a second language, but "provisioner" is common enough I would think to warrant actually having been fed into the database. I imagine they are next to each other in a list of words?

    You know one reason Pete might be aggressive and assertive is that his family is the only cat family in a whole city with millions of dogs. He's making himself look big, so to speak.

    You wont believe the number of stormtroopers theyre deploying against unarmed students unless you see it. This is just one side: at least 7 police departments with at least two layers at every point of egress, with several layers in back for rear control and rotation. They've got the army out against your kids for having the audacity to do whatever they can to stop a genocide

    a wide (~50m?) staircase with maybe 20 rows of cops in full riot gear stare down a handful of unarmed students

    Virginia GOP banning fiction novels about slavery because they’re allegedly traumatic to white kids but renaming their schools to Confederate terrorists despite their documented trauma on Black kids, aren't protecting children or education, they're protecting white supremacy.

    Help the pretty girl who lives upstairs spoke to me

    I mean she literally just said "hello" while I was sitting on the front of my car vaping

    But it seemed to be the only thing she came outside for??

    I have some coworkers and was telling them about how we used to take our car stereo face plates with us when we left the car back in the days when stereos weren't integrated into the dash and you wanted a nice one.

    They were very amazed. So I made this meme.

    @renwillis Fun story:
    Sis "inherited" dad's baby blue Saab 99 with a POS stereo in it when she went off to Uni.

    One morning every single car had been broken into on the parking lot and their stereos taken... except in sis car there was a better one lying on the seat.

    Our guess is that the thieves had realized THAT one was worthless, broken into my sis' car, found that one even WORSE and just dumped the better one in her seat.

    Dad installed it a week later after the police didn't want it.

    @WhyNotZoidberg@topspicy.social avatar

    @renwillis The stereo was still a pos, but a slightly less stinky one 😜
