I’ve only quit jobs when moving, one I gave 2 months notice and confirmed I would be around for two peak periods. I have done what you did without the vacation bit. Tell them first and then give them the letter.

Australia had a mass shooting in 1996 and pretty strict gun control came in. Now it’s only really sport shooters (who are a pretty responsible bunch from my experience), rural property owners with a good reason (pest control largely), certain occupations like specific security (cash transport for instance), cops and military that have guns. And criminals.

We still get the odd shooting but they’re pretty rare and to my understanding, almost never done by legal owners.

I’m not sure what things were like back in 1996 but I don’t believe we really have the gun culture so there’s not much opposition to gun control by the majority.

Playing Ghost of Yotei at the moment and absolutely loving it. Tsushima was an all timer for me so I’m happy for more.

I’ll go back to Ubuntu Touch. I used it a year ago and it wasn’t completely compatible with Fairphone. Now it is.

Show her some pictures or videos of DEs and see what she likes. If she’s someone who likes to make it look the way she wants, she might get a bit more out of KDE than Cinnamon for example.

I find this resistance weird. (From the “normies”, not the Signal users)

Most of them have phones filled with all sorts of crap that they download willy nilly, yet they only seem to put the walls up for Signal.

I thought Metroid did it pretty well. Hunters at least, not sure if there was another you might be talking about.

It’s a great system. Worth just clarifying that the “nominating” is just the candidate suggesting who to put which numbers next to, not actually them saying who the runoff vote goes to.

What does that have to do with the topic at hand?

Can recommend an afternoon nap.

Ah that makes sense. Thanks.

Why is that? (Genuine curiosity)

The original Macross opening theme is epic. (As in what the word used to mean)

The theme by Anri from the first season of Cat’s Eye (the original, not the remake releasing now) absolutely slaps. Second season theme (Derringer by Mariko Tome) isn’t too bad either. The ending themes are pretty corny but they grew on me.

Evangelion opening and ending (Fly Me to the Moon, not the Rei themes on the Netflix version)

I can’t remember which season it was in but Seize the Day from Laidback Camp is one of the happiest songs I’ve heard.

Samurai Champloo might have the best music of any anime. The gateway to Nujabes who would become my favourite artist.

Keys, phone, wallet. Watch if needing to know the time is relevant on my trip.

I’m a simple man.

Tempo is beautiful. I was using it but was having some crashes so I switched to dsub2000. Not as pretty but functioned better for me. Tempo is a fantastic choice though.

Tried dual booting Ubuntu and XP back around 2006, didn’t really see the point because gaming on Windows.

2020 got a Raspberry Pi and set up Retropie which gave me a good intro to Linux. Tried to get away from big tech in 2021 and was dual booting Mint and Windows 10. Ended up spending more time in 10 because gaming.

Got an old laptop from work and it was perfect to throw Mint on because no way it was going to handle gaming. Then I set up a media server, initially with the the Pi and then bought a cheap mini for it - and ran it on Mint. I’m primarily a console gamer now so gaming is far less of a concern for me on PC. Mint everything now.

I could distro hop or at least try something else, and maybe I will at some stage. But I’m too happy with Mint/Cinnamon to bother.

Doesn’t look like anything for Ubuntu Touch, PostmarketOS or even LineageOS. If you are looking at another phone each of the operating system’s websites list compatibility and what features are supported.

It wasn’t Discord itself that got breached it was their service provider. The article does mention age verification data. So possibly k-ID which I’ve found on their support site as the provider for age verification. And what do they say about saving those?

Discord and k-ID do not permanently store personal identity documents or your video selfies. Images of your identity documents and ID match selfies are deleted directly after your age group is confirmed, and the video selfie used for facial age estimation never leaves your device.

Thank you for this. I’ve been under the impression that energy drinks had more than coffee for years now.

Today seems a bit more pleasant heat-wise than the last few. I could look up data to confirm that but where’s the fun in that?
