@semordnilap I mean, sure if your ISP blocks the BitTorrent protocol, or you intend to do some not-legal or quasi-legal things, a VPN or proxy are good. But I'm just seeding some Debian ISOs, so who cares?

Besides IP address shielding doesn't work IMO.

Always remember to make sure you are in the sudoers file

@mwlucas don't forget an /s at the end

@mdhughes ironically, JIMP is already taken.

@cassidyjames I didn't find it memorable in the least though. Can't remember a single song from that movie that wasn't in a different star wars movie in some form.

@ConnyDuck you know how tusky will default to "load more" for messages that are older than an hour, and retains a cache if messages from before that?

Sometimes it happens after loading tusky, and the messages are older than the break point, in the cached messages

@omnipotens @brandon fair enough

I miss the era where #email was a big deal and the primary means of electronic text communication, before the advent of #IRC, #IM apps and #SMS messaging.

That era will never return, mind you.

@brandon

I haven't been this hyped about an OS release since Windows 95.

#Debian #Buster :debian: 🐕

@yogthos the best part is calling DNS-over-HTTPS DoH. Homer Simpson would be proud.

Some days, I feel that English lacks a certain precision that I want out of speech and communication.

@alchemyjones Well lucky for us, humans could not feel the earthquake that far away, but you could still observe the effects such as conference room equipment shaking and vibrating slightly. Animals can certainly detect it.

But its the actual wafer processing equipment that is super sensitive. It doesn't take much vibration at all (below the ability for humans to detect naturally) to trip seismic sensors and shut things down.

@burek By some dude, you mean people have been trying to get the devs to change the project name for longer than a decade.

Its a bad name all around, even when you ignore the political correctness of the subject. How it has persisted as long as it has is an anomaly.
