Not enough to be an issue unless you already have diabetes or another blood sugar problem.

Dysphagia, maybe?

It’s most likely a displacement activity.

Obligatory Achewood link

If you have a Nebula subscription, Lindsay Ellis has a fascinating video about Blazing Saddles and why it really couldn’t be made today, but not for the reasons you’d think; it has more to do with the history of the Western genre and the state of race relations in the US than “political correctness.” I wish she’d put it on Youtube.

So I guess that’s my roundabout answer: any movie that “couldn’t be made today” is probably because of larger social forces than just “too much swearing/violence/nudity/etc.”

As someone who’s used both, I think men’s and women’s restrooms are equally gross overall. Humans is humans, bodies is bodies, grossness doesn’t discriminate, etc.

I find regular oat milk and/or almond milk too watery, same as you. Oat milk or almond milk-based creamers are where it’s at for me. Califia Farms also makes a “barista blend” oat milk specifically for coffee drinks if you can find it.

There’s a fork of QKSMS called Quik SMS that’s still being developed! That’s what I use now.

TV bumpers/“vanity plates.” The Viacom and 20th Century Fox ones were particularly bad when I was a kid. I don’t watch much TV…

I grew up in Florida but I haven’t lived there in a long time and I had a visceral fear reaction to just reading the words “palmetto bugs.” AUGH.

Glass shark! Glass shark!

I see people recommending Debian but you also said you enjoy tinkering, so I’d recommend SpiralLinux. It’s basically Debian but it uses BTRFS so you can roll back to a previous snapshot if you break something. I don’t think Spiral has updated to Trixie yet so you’d need to manually upgrade but that’s not too big a hassle if you do it immediately.

So the NVIDIA graphics card is not as big of an issue as it would have been even five years ago. Just use the proprietary drivers. And for my money, Linux Mint is the best distro for beginners, hands-down. You never have to touch the command line and everything just works.

I second this, with the addition that you can also use DistroSea to test-drive distros in your browser. Also, DistroWatch has a search that you can filter by “Beginners” to find some that might be easier.

Well, shit. Sorry Mr Macklemore :(

Haven’t gotten there yet. I’m curious to see what happens with Motorola though!

Same!

California is not the center of the universe, but in the US, a fair amount of companies have to tailor their practices to accommodate California law, because A) it’s so weird a lot of the time, and B) California is huge and rich, so there’s a lot of business to be had. It just makes sense to accommodate the outlier. What happens in California has knock-on effects for the rest of the country, and occasionally the rest of the world; case in point, the recent systemd debacle. It’s not certain that they added the age thing in response to the California law specifically, but it was certainly a factor.

Was expecting this link to be a Rickroll tbh

David Bowie is overrated.
