This is the same article that was posted yesterday with the title "Kill DNS"

I mean, I've never actually set foot inside a strip club, so maybe they're not all owned and patronized by total skeezeballs like the media portrays. I just don't have much reason to assume that's the case here.

But like OP said in another reply, it seems like it might have been a hoax anyway, so it doesn't matter.

That sounds... weirdly specific and exploitative. If it was for queer people in general that'd be one thing, but I dunno.

Does the genus name literally translate to "shapeless dick"?

God, I love scientists.

Edit: yeah, basically

Just listened to that one. Also great.

If anyone is a punk rock fan, Dropkick Murphys put out an album based on unused Woody Guthrie lyrics.

It's called This Machine Still Kills Fascists.

The human body is 70% water. The energy required to evaporate all that would wipe out anything you'd get from combusting the organic matter. And it's not like they could leave them out back to dry out like seasoning firewood.

In the Abrahamic religions (Judaism, Christianity, Islam), having multiple faiths is explicitly forbidden in the Ten Commandments: https://en.m.wikisource.org/wiki/Bible_(King_James)/Exodus#20:1

2 I am the LORD thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.

3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me.

And you can see this play out historically: when Christians met peoples of other faiths, they didn't see it as an opportunity for learning and cultural exchange, they saw them as heathens that needed to be proselytized... or eradicated.

Conversely, I feel like Buddhists are the most likely to have other faiths, because Buddhism changed and adapted as it spread throughout Asia, and incorporated elements of the local religions.

The GPG keys that are used to sign packages expire and are rotated something like every six months to a year. If you don't get the new ones in an update before they start being used, pacman will refuse to update at all.

It's easily fixable, but if you don't know that, it can be quite intimidating.

My Windows 10 computer eerily waking itself from sleep got me in the habit of shutting it down completely every night. I'd be lying in bed, turn over and open my eyes, and see the light of the screen reflecting off the wall. It was like something out of a shitty horror movie about computers taking over the world.

To this fucking day, even in Windows 11, it takes "Update and Shut Down" as a mere fucking suggestion. About half the time, it'll restart after the update and just sit there chilling at the login screen. Not a single fuck given.

Linux is a breath of fresh air by comparison. Though, if you choose to run Arch you need to stay on top of updates or else a day will come where you won't be able to update because you're now too far behind. It can be fixed manually, but it's still annoying and a little scary if you're not familiar with it.

It's clear they did not walk out.

By the time I placed my order - paying a 1% fee to the app makers in the process - I would have happily paid double for the experience of simply flipping through a menu and talking to another human being.

(Emphasis mine.) This is from the very next paragraph after what I quoted.

You also clearly missed the point of my comment, which is that unless consumers start refusing to take this bullshit lying down, this stuff will be unavoidable in the future because there will be no other choices left.

That's assuming the employees give enough of a shit to pass the feedback on to the owners, and that the owners give enough of a shit to listen.

Yeah, it's better if you make it known why you're not giving them your business, but if it doesn't appreciably impact their revenue then most owners won't care either way.
