"Regional Car Dealership Rococo" is not an architecture style!

The fact that “сермяжная правда” directly translates to “homespun truth” proves that the working class was abused in both “capitalist utopia” and “socialist utopia”.

Starving again. I’m in that “running on fumes” state already. Come, sweet slumber

One of the top comments under a lobotomy sound effect video says this:
"Imagine that annoying sound playing in your head as it, your memories, feelings and thoughts slowly fade away"

Bitch, what if ALL my memories, feelings and thoughts are literal hell that I want to purge by all means necessary, but I don't want to die? Priviliged people be valuing their precious priviliged experiences without realizing that for a lot of us life is hell

Slacktivism and privacy don't mix well. Privacy is a conscious, active effort that never ends. Don't outsource privacy. Avoid integrated "privacy" solutions that offer centralized "all-in-one privacy thing" for a monthly fee/for free, like Proton and Brave. Privacy doesn't exist without decentralization.

The English Wikipedia's article on "Ostrich" has "Not to be confused with Osterreich" written on top :D
Americans, am I right?

Remember when I told you that American idioms are always about the money? Well:
- Normal languages: “I’ll remember this”
- Americans: “It will live in my head rent-free”

From Wikipedia’s article on military impostors:
“such a statement implies that the speaker was deployed to a combat zone, even if in reality they never left their home country.”

LMAO what if someone’s home country _is_ a combat zone?

White people decided to rename female circumcision, a traditional practice that takes place among Khoisan, Nyakyusa and Khoekhoe people, to “female genital mutilation”.

The amount of suffering that white people caused to the Africans is immeasurable. And now, white people decide to export their “culture” to Africa, and to tell African women what they can and cannot do to their own private parts? For those of you who don’t know, it’s women circumcising other women.

Can whites just fuck off for once? Let African people write their own laws on their land, and practice their own culture.

If they choose to go to your country, that’s a different story. But as long as they practice their culture among themselves on their own land, fuck off!

Because of all the injustice done to a regular folk by the banks and megacorporations, as well as the parts of government that value those two higher than doing the right thing for the regular people, piracy is all but justified.

For me, piracy is the default option. When it comes to stuff made by a megacorp, the first thing I do is see if I can pirate that. I would argue that piracy should be the default option for everyone.

No, you're not depriving corpo staff/hires of their salaries by pirating. If a megacorp is not paying them, it's not your fault.

I only pay for content if I want to support the creators. I was pirating since I got my first computer, I do pirate right now, and I will pirate in the future. I will advocate for piracy.

I don't know why, but the backrooms sound, e.g. the generic transformer hum, is so soothing to me. Call me crazy, but oh how I want my room, and maybe my entire apartment, to resemble a 2000's office. Think cs_office map, but for real!

I know it's probably because of my childhood, but I constantly feel like I'm being watched. Not just watched, but at any time a vague authority figure will rush into my room and make me do things because I'm long overdue on everything for some reason.

This notion somehow completely falls apart when I'm inside some office, the closer to 2000's in aesthetics, the better. I don't feel comfortable in luxurious interiors, or in Hygge-inducing Scandinavian interiors, or at "home" (I have no feeling of home). But 2000's office is my anxiety's kryptonite.

My dream is to have a cubicle at home. And that the door to my room should have that thing that automatically closes it. And the lock made by Abloy. Old office-style carpeted floor. Vertical metal shades. And let this paradise drown in soothing 60 cycle hum.

Carpeted toilet seat.

Isn't it eerie how the same cat looks cute to you and absolutely terrifying to a little mouse? Imagine a monster that knows no mercy, can hear your tiniest movement, is 20 times your size, is faster than you, with fangs as long as your head is wide, that can crack your skull in one good bite and swallows those like you whole.

There are two good ways to approach binary app distribution:
1. Every app has its own installer, shell-based or otherwise, that handles everything including choosing the right binary, downloading it, managing versions, updates, config files, etc — all of it.
2. Every app is distributed as source code. It's user's responsibility to build it by the guide provided in README and keep it updated.

In between those two pillars, there is an uncanny valley of orphaned dependency graphs, broken post-install scripts, vendor-locked enforced app stores, eCoSyStEmS of apps, Adobe Creative Cloud, and all the other shit.

Let's purely hypothetically say that someone used international shipping to get you a... liquid that tastes good but also moisturizes the skin very nicely. For the sake of argument, let's assume that you get just one bottle. What do you do: drink all of it or spread all of it all over your body? If you drink just half of it and use the other half on your body, neither will be enough to fullfill its respective purpose.
The liquid goes bad rather quickly. Yet, certain aficionados like it a bit aged.

Yes, RAID 1 is. What you wanted to say is “RAID is not an off-site backup”.

Driving data from your car (direction, Gs, cameras) can be used to estimate your “recklessness”, bought by banks and used to “properly evaluate” your insurance price 🙈

COLLATE in SQL and “collateral damage” are related words

Themes:
- lost glory that was there before amnesia/in hipster times, has to be reassembled again, but it might no longer have anything in common with me
- luxury escape location that is mine but also isn’t
- a workplace where I kinda don’t work but where I’m welcome still, with a desk reserved for me
- awful, uncomfortable, depersonalizing and dirty new world that I don’t know why I should attend if I can leave right now and nothing will change

Polish military has the official "8 wounds" chevron that is given to those who sustained 8 battle wounds. Do you know why Americans don't have those? Because you have to be Polish to get wounded eight times in battle and still be alive enough to wear this thing on your uniform. Poles are built different.
