Cheaper, faster, better… Pick 2

I think the new name is awful. What is the connection to Toronto? Maybe there is one, but it’s not obvious and it shouldnt require a degree in history to make the connection.

Was Mr. Dundas an awful person? Definitely… Did he have historical ties to the city? Definitely. Should we remove his name from stuff? Probably… But pick a good name that makes sense…

I’d rather have names in the city that remind us of our awful past rather than words that sound nice but have no obvious connection to the city

Lol “paying traffic”

It’s well documented that pedestrians and cyclists coming into the neighborhood spend more money than some dude driving in from the waste island

Oops, i was confused. They have a risc-v tablet but shown with a keyboard accessory so it looks like a laptop

Not sure how much this will be but pine64 already has a risc-v development laptop available for a long time

Edit: not a laptop but a tablet

Unfortunately, its their platform and their rules… And not even rules… Their whims.

I dont know why people expect corporations to support anything other than profit. You want free speech? For-profit, non-free platforms aren’t the place to do it

So… Only slightly more than 2 microsofts ($3.2T market cap)

I"ve been playing this in early access for a while now…

Based on the current state of the game, october seems a bit rushed

They have a lot of bugs to fix, and a lot of optimization to do to get the fps up to where it needs to be.

Been playing since civ2…

I sank so much of my life into civ4 and civ5…

I couldnt get into civ6… Probably under 20hr of play time

I hope civ7 has something special that will get me back to that “one more turn” feeling…

Apparently it was a children’s tv show

Or maybe rail for commercial transport…

I hope you’re upgrading from debian buster to bullseye!

Not really good news for the plastic that isnt waste. Plastic pipes or structures in buildings that were meant to last decades we dont want eaten away by fungus

They cant. Its an addiction or stockholm syndrome

Yeah, but there was this one time i went to ikea to pick up a couch!!! Cant do that with a bike, you pinko commies!

For me, no…

I’ve gone from debian 9 to debian 11 and now debian sid without reinstalling OS on my desktop

Same with my servers. Debian 8 -> 11 all upgrades in-place. Will have to upgrade to 12 soon…

The only time i messed up an upgrade is when accidentally used the codename “bookworm” in the sources file and skipped a major version. The system tried to fully upgrade 2 versions ahead and promptly borked itself… But it was an LXC container so i just rolled back my mistake. Lesson learned…

But yeah. Full re-installs have NEVER been a thing for me since going debian. It will even happily clone to a new SSD when you need to upgrade your hardware. (As long as your new hardware has in-kernel drivers, or at least some basic functionality to boot and fix the problem, if any)

Once people become familar with the basics of linux, they realize that almost anything that these niche distros offer can be accomplished in debian

You’ll always end up on debian. You just dont know it yet

I keep hearing how addictive nicotine is (7x more than heroin??), but in my experience, i never got addicted. Is there something wrong with my brain?

I never smoked two packs a day, but i spent at least 3 years smoking socially (2 or 3 smokes at work every day and then 2 or 3 smokes at the bar on the weekend). So around a pack a week.

But during that time, i could always just take a week or two off if i needed to. I always wanted a smoke (especially with a beer or coffee) but i could resist the urge, no problem.

At the end of the 3 years, i just quit cold turkey. I would keep smoking once in a while with a beer, but i never went back to regular smoking…

Do you only get addicted if you’re smoking a pack a day or more?
