Doing a little napkin math here, that’s about a half an ounce of heroin mixed into 385 gallons of water.

That seems more like the 55 gallon drums had previously been filled with heroin, but were drained and refilled with water, and just a little residue was leftover.

“It came out of nowhere”

Seriously, how can it be legal to put camouflage patterns on cars?

I was never a fan of Linus tech tips. He always seemed like a weird guy. I did watch that video where he totally fucked his Linux installation by being really dumb. The package manager warned him that he was about to destroy his system and made him type something like “Yes, I know what I’m doing”. He then reacted like, “why would Linux do this to me!? It’s so hard!”

Either a paid shill or an absolute moron.

Having kids is stupid. The world doesn’t need more people. Stop it.

Is it even possible for Linux to get enshitified? Wouldn’t the open source community just go back and fork from before the enshitification began? Surely, enshitified versions could be made but people would simply not use them unless there was some proprietary component they wanted.

Dickes’s work pants are always like this, horribly inconsistent. But they were cheap and they last forever so you just have to grab a pile of the same size, try them all on and buy the ones that fit. Good luck ordering online…

Masturbating, I’m masturbating. And so are you when you think that voting with your wallet does anything.

Indeed, you are thoroughly pacified. Your objections and moral outage quelled and your sense of significance sustained by the illusion that simply buying from a different conglomerate will have any impact.

Any suggestion that your impotent protest is inadequate must surely come from a childish fool.

I think the point is that we’re deluded to think that voting with our wallets does anything. You still work. You still buy. You still support the system. The one step you’re taking only gets you partway from the couch to the refrigerator. It doesn’t get you out the door and into a protest that would actually make a difference.
