I wouldn't be surprised if they were working on it in some capacity. They've done well with Linux support so far.

I thought some platforms (particularly Facebook/Instagram) will parse images for "bad" words and throttle the engagement of those posts, so people have taken to censoring themselves to avoid that.

Your taxes already go to various public programs, like infrastructure (roads and highways), Israel, public education, police, public services, paying off national debt, Israel again, social security, Medicare, veteran benefits, the salaries of public officials, Israel... Oh yeah, and food programs.

So, like, what's the problem?

What a fascinating character he is. Again, thanks for sharing and I'm sorry you had to deal with this nonsense. At least you got a good story out of it!

Absolutely insane read. Thanks for sharing, although I'm still very stuck on Phillip's personality. It sounds like he was rather inclusive, yet was a real shitbag outside the table?

As a person who has to use Teams for work: fuck Teams.

I'm convinced those people have to be elaborate trolls. Like the flat earthers.

Hello neighbor! NC will welcome you. It's purple here. Rural areas are not so great but closer to the bigger cities (Charlotte, Raleigh, Asheville, Greensboro/Winston) are nice.

Sorry about your sanity.

I had a similar experience on my laptop. I tried Ubuntu which broke after trying to throw on Nvidia drivers (using the official docs). I tried Mint and Debian, both of which couldn't detect my laptop's wifi card (after hours of trying to fix - apparently a common issue but the fixes did not work for me!). I landed on Fedora, worked great. I'm now on EndeavourOS, but Fedora was the stepping stone I needed.

My desktop I built recently is Bazzite, which is Fedora based and I love it.

I did one of those Hey girls, did you know that um memes (and continued to make them) back in the day. Netted me niche internet micro celebrity status. I won't tell you which one, though.

Aviators stay on during the Sloppy Joe.

Get 'em wet, Shaggy!

Not the fella you replied to, but a common method is to keep up a dream journal. Write your dreams down, write down common themes. The idea is that your subconscious will pick up on these things while you're dreaming, and you'll be able to control your dreams.

I did theatre in high school (a decade ago) and we performed the straight play The Boys Next Door, a story about four intellectually disabled men living together with the help of their caretaker. The original show was written circa 1988, and uses "retarded" as the word to describe the men. Obviously for a high school play, we couldn't use that.

Our director interfaced with a local group to determine what the correct terminology should be, and over the course of rehearsal, we changed the phrase from mentally challenged to intellectually challenged to intellectually disabled. It was important to us to make sure we got it right, but it was also surprising that the term changed very quickly.

Not sure what the politically correct term is nowadays, I try and avoid the R slur. Point is, this is a dumb greentext among the many I have saved; I Guess I could have picked a different one.

There is a long-standing history of using fried chicken and watermelon (among other foods) to negatively depict Black People in the United States. I agree that both foods are excellent (watermelon even being a popular summertime fruit that can feed a lot of people), but having them together on Juneteenth (a day of celebration for the freedom of Black People) is pretty on the nose.

I suppose so, but this is Anon we're talking about.

I know a few people who work for companies that acknowledge and give time off for Juneteenth. My company is not such a company, though.

Spectrum, even, treats Juneteenth like any other federal holiday, like Christmas or Thanksgiving. It's basically a volunteer-first, lottery system for who gets time off and who has to work, but those that work get extra holiday pay and the call centers try and do something extra (like catering) for those that are working.

According to my friend who works there, it was red drink.

Thanks for the info. Pretty awful.

Nazi signposting? Any examples specifically? Gave up on IH after the plagiarism deal, and I know some of his earlier content tends to lean on the edgier side of things.
