Haven't done the salt water test mostly because I just wanted to see results before I did a test like that

As the other commentor mentioned it's a reference to a Garbage Time video

Specifically this one

Gormadt OP , 1 month ago

I'm confused by your comment, was it meant to be a reply to someone else?

Gormadt OP , 1 month ago

The third point is related to this video which the comment is in response to

It could also be seen as poking fun at having to admit one's inadequacy in some regard (as some people have a really hard time admitting to their shortcomings)

My boss stopped asking me why I was late a few years ago

If I wasn't so damn good at what I do he'd probably care about me being late but we basically came to an agreement

I can be late as long as I'm still good at what I do

I got a promotion back in December, I've only been late a handful of times since then lol

And their pants are so much more advanced than my pants it melts my brain

Personally I think the "Nothing ever changes so don't even try" demographic is more annoying.

And overhauling our voting system to become such a thing requires engagement in our current system

Specifically pushing for candidates that support it and expressing how important it is to people in your locality (yes you have to talk to people IRL) and to the representatives who win

Gormadt , 2 months ago

Oh I forgot that nothing ever changes in regards to voting so we shouldn't even try

Oh wait! Woman's suffrage, The Civil Rights Act (Ending the Jim Crow Era), various states going for universal mail-in ballots, various states currently passing Ranked Choice voting (and actively having movements for it), etc

You mean to say they had political engagement?

If the supreme court justices that made those decisions were different because different people won the elections then there's a chance those decisions would have been different.

Politics takes place at many levels, city, county, state, country, there's many elections that are important.

If you don't engage in politics don't be made when shit doesn't go your way.

Gormadt , 2 months ago

You could do so yourself but I understand not wanting to as this would quickly turn your inbox into a trash fire for a long time depending of which politics community you post it to and who is federated with who.

"Wow, look at the amount of food our descendant can choose from. They'll never go hungry. Look they're even shaking with excitement in the cereal aisle. Huh, they're crying while standing in front the boxes. Must be tears of joy. And now they've fallen over and curled up in a ball... Weird."

"I think they're having a panic attack."

"What? Why?"

"I think they can't decide which cereal to buy."

"But there's so many to pick from, they can just grab any one of them and be set."

"Yeah I think that may be the problem, they got stuck deciding which one to grab and shut down."

"But they can just grab any of them."

"But what if they grab the wrong one?"

"I don't understand."

"Don't worry, they don't either."

No, no this checks out

Reach out to your reps and encourage others to do the same

Hello, it's me, a landfill

Those systems are going to be dirt cheap Linux boxes in the very near future

Or at least a couple will be for me

Gormadt , 2 months ago

Linux Mint is fire BTW

I'm running it on all my systems except my main rig currently and it's been rock solid

Gormadt , 2 months ago

It's got to have some software on it currently that doesn't play nicely with Linux. (CAD and Adobe Suite stuff)

Basically my plan to work around that issue is to spin up a Windows VM on my little server and just run it there so all my PCs can access the same Windows install.

I just haven't got around to that yet because I just haven't found the time yet

This is why I stick with old used cars, what it says on the tin is what I get and that won't change.

And I'm sure letting trump have an easier time getting elected will make things so much better.

I would recommend talking to your local representatives about the current situation and how important it is to you and expressing how you may support other people running against them if they don't support a ceasefire.

Local elections are really important.

Gormadt OP , 3 months ago

Primaries are for voting with your heart, the general is for voting strategically

Gormadt OP , 3 months ago

I've literally had multiple relatives tell me to my face how they're giddy with excitement for the day they get the order to march through the streets and kill people like me, a queer lefty.

I'd prefer if we didn't let that happen here.

Gormadt OP , 3 months ago

My local district flipped blue for the first time in decades, local elections and primaries are very important

Gormadt OP , 3 months ago

There's many reasons I call them relatives and not family

You can choose your family (and I have), can't choose your relatives though

But you don't have to associate with your relatives unless you want to

Gormadt OP , 3 months ago

Not voting is letting trump have an easier time at victory

I'd prefer he had the hardest time imaginable

If you've ever heard the call of an eagle it sounds a hell of a lot like a seagull

The fact that in a lot of media eagles are dubbed over because they don't sound "cool" enough makes me giggle every time I hear it
