@karen Most of them are very difficult to immerse yourself in without a huge time commitment, which is necessary to remain even slightly competitive. -

@hakui Just cringeworthy. -

@lnxw48a1 I have a strong aversion to the notion of people as some arbitrary 'class'. At that point, you're not regarding them as people anymore. -

@rysiek @moritzheiber One interesting side effect I found on this with Deb/Ubuntu: If the service was originally written as a SYSV unit, it's enumerated by systemd on boot, creating on-the-fly unit files. Thus, any changes you make using systemctl won't persist, as it will be recreated next boot.
I learnt this the hard way with Avahi (which is socket activated), when I couldn't understand why it kept coming back. I had to actually remove it to get it to stop.Not really a shortcoming of systemd as much as it is the distro maintainers, but really, really odd behaviour. -

@rysiek @iliana Is that some socket activation strangeness? -

@technowix It's all fun and games until the Nazis come along and fuck it up for everyone. -

@technowix Like the Maginot line? It wasn't so extensive though, I don't think. -

@karen Although I would not get my grubby mitts on a GPU until late '99. -

@karen I remember a clear line between the start of the GPU era in...'97? And the rest of it. As soon as PC's got the fancy shaders and coloured lighting it was a different world. -

@lnxw48a1 There was a feature a few weeks back about such a commute - http://www.latimes.com/local/california/la-me-lopez-commute-cherry-20171216-story.html
I'm not that surprised. It's an interesting place, like nowhere else I've seen in the US. -

@lnxw48a1 From some of the descriptions it appears that the nature of some of these homeless problems is highly varied.
Portland had a lot of lifestyle bums, from what I could see. It sounds like LA has a fair fiew people whom simply cannot afford to live there.In conversation from thespinning.top permalink -

@lnxw48a1 I saw a little documentary about the trailer park near LAX once; home to airline employees that are effectively homeless. It was fascinating, if a little depressing. In conversation from thespinning.top permalink -

Pretty interesting story about homelessness in LA. Quite shocking, really.
