Do naps finally count as sleep? Coz that's been a fail forever.

Love my garmin, but sleep tracking is bs.

When your car just works, you don't report anything. The Prius is relevant because it has a battery pack (NiMH chemistry) famous for doing 300000kms before replacement. Not sure what extra words are going to help, it's a simple concept, don't need to report what ain't broke.

Blessed are the toolmakers

No-one reports that their car didn't need maintenance. See also, Toyota, Prius.

Why not, it works (Bazzite enjoyer)

Doesn’t need maintenance is an under-reported significance.

Toyota ? Doesn't need maintenance is an under-reported significance.

NGL, thought Terry Pratchett.

GNU Terry Pratchett.

This is lovely, as poetry, and I get why people might want it to be formatted perfectly, and use a specific font.

But, NO, this blinds me while using dark mode, plz help.

Poetry is text, and should be treated as such, but given it is under memed, I am sanguine with whatever I get.

My personal take, as a bike rider, use those corvid smarts (yes I know they're not technically corvids, but they fill the niche, and they're smart)

Jerky, throw it for them when they swoop. It lasts for the breeding season, and they will remember you (They're not called the black and white mafia for nothing, and their protection is relatively cheap). Next time you ride past watch the guy/gal behind you get swooped.

What's it again, No Gods, No Masters ? Best thing I've heard for a while, pass it on...

which will take 2 painless minutes, I miss journalism...

Sorry, you're probably right. It's a thing I expect to be problematic if the future. Of course all problems will burn up in the atmosphere...

and isn't that a nice thought, but no, it raises orbit fairly naturaly...

Yup, but scatter might be bad...Still, in principle, better satellites live...

Not wrong, and yet small parts of that 'orbit' would kinetically increase, in a Kessler sort of way...

Don't worry, greed ensures that Kessler Syndrome will get them in the not too distant future. Sure hope you aren't reliant on GPS or other satellite services, but at least, for a shining moment, shareholders got some value. /s

As it should be, don't do that.

Doctor, when I do this it hurts...

Also, you're creating a disk image...

Pass it on...
