Oliven, Norwegian. For some reason it’s an uncountable noun.

Må innrømme at jeg ikke er kjent med uttrykket. Er det en dansk eufemisme for tysk?

Itt’s æ fønn mim, bøtt Ai ålwejs fil lajk thej kudd hæv dønn æ better dsjåbb åv the juropien spelling. In eni kejs, itt’s æ veri nais søbreddit, æn Ai kip fårgetting iff ther’s wan ån Lemmy.

Hä?

Yeah, I think my sway config is around five years old now. The Wayland experience hasn’t been entirely without warts, but as someone who kind of just uses the desktop to drive a browser and a bunch of terminals, there’s not a whole lot of problems to run into either.

Yeah, the left generally considers it a “fighting day” similar to March 8th. The right does gardening (to make it visible that they’re not marching). Others do whatever they feel like; not uncommon to spend the day hung over.

If ssh has a security issue and you permit root logins then hostiles likely have an easier time getting access to root on the machine than if they only get access to your user account—then they need multiple exploits.

Generally you also want to be root as little as possible. Hence sudo, run0, etc.

Kokoro.

Also have vague plans to reread Der Zauberberg

Likely also will reread V. and the Count of Monte Christo at some point.

Yeah, let’s have a go with the ACI (anti-coercion instrument) and see if we can’t make their patents free game. Playing to Trump’s tune is unlikely to work out well

They helped resuscitate Europe with the Marshall plan and helped keep us safe through the cold war with NATO. We have seriously had a good relationship for all of living memory.

I had to figure out how to do the factory reset at the gym after I got the blue triangle of death when leaving work. Oddly enough it synced the gym plan I wanted and leaving it connected to the phone didn’t seem to produce any other ill effects, but I stayed away from anything using GPS.

But yeah, the general advice for Garmins just now seems to be “just don’t” and hope it doesn’t triangle itself until the fix is out

They’re stuck in a reboot loop, but not bricked. A factory reset works (but the problem may reappear on update).

If reporting critically on what the government and its members are up to is now “feeding the trolls”, then the phrase has lost all meaning.

It’s one thing to not engage with online bullies and leave them bored. It’s another thing entirely to start anew with first they came for the illegal immigrants, and I didn’t say anything, for I wasn’t an illegal immigrant.

Translating a comment by a Norwegian author:

as someone who once put in a lot of effort to excuse the far right etc when they maybe cross the line a little bit but probably don’t really mean it so let’s all calm down a bit, I’ve learned one thing:

the only reward you get for doing this is that they the next day bombastically step over that same line to show that they don’t feel bound by your wimpy sense of decency

because the fight is against what they perceive as a wimpy, castrated centrist decency is one of the central driving forces in such groups

More people who have tried to explain away the nazi salute could probably stand to learn the same lesson ASAP. The only thing they’re really communicating is that the rich & powerful can do what they want and the excusers will stay their loyal lapdogs.

Yeah, they’re a good example of conspicuous consumption.

Too recent. Let Gore win back in 2000.

And it is, of course, all guys who died.

Or at the very least avoid car ownership and overuse:

When you use a 3500-pound car to transport your 150-pound self around, 96 percent of the weight of that clump of matter is the car. You’re moving 25 times more junk around than you need to, and thus using 25 times more energy to do it.

Imagine that you’re hungry for lunch, so you go to a restaurant. But you don’t just order yourself a blackened salmon salad for $15.00. You order twenty five salads for $375.00! Then, you eat one of them, and leave the other 24 blackened salmon salads, $360.00 worth of food, to get collected by the waiter and slopped unceremoniously into a big black garbage bag. All that fine wild-caught Alaskan Salmon, lovingly seasoned and grilled. All the fine crumbles of feta cheese, the mango salsa, diced green onion, shaved peppers, rich zingy dressing, and everything else the chef worked on for hours – plopped into the slimy garbage bag. This is exactly what you are doing, every time you drive!

Of course, a lot of people, especially in North America, don’t really have an alternative, and they’ll be financially and bodily worse off for it.

Or at the very least lift the seat.

Guessing they also don’t close the lid so they get to spray themselves with whatever’s in the bowl when they flush. And then don’t wash their hands before leaving.

Yeah, I switched to deezer then, haven’t had any trouble with it.
