@owlpaste@mastodon.social i disagree. that post is a perfect example of a slippery slope argument if i've ever seen one

and yes, for all its balkiness, systemd is *miles* better than anything any distro i'd ever used was doing before. there may be better init systems, but i wouldn't know.
but sure, let's beat lennart with the meme stick some more
i don't really get the #systemd age verification controversy, except that the "age" entry seems to be added at a ridiculously bad time (rogue states passing bad laws): certificates (may) contain full name AND address, and those are regularly sent to other people. i believe ubuntu and other distros (may) ask you about your phone number AND the *room* you are working in, which is saved locally. now, your date of birth MAY BE saved locally, as well.
terrible optics, useless, but inconsequential.

@lionel@pouet.chapril.org @nixCraft@mastodon.social @reddy_1975@mastodon.online this pr was to revert the original one, which added a field for age, and was merged.
sad that #chuck #norris is dead? don't be. bruce schneier is still alive and is not a deeply homophobic, trump-humping magat https://www.schneierfacts.com/ #chucknorris
if A ⊢ B ("A" implies "B") is true, ¬B ⊢ ¬A ("not A" implies "not B") follows, but ¬A ⊢ ¬B does not
having said that, "if you're not left-wing when you're young, you have no heart. if you're not right-wing when you're old, you have no brains, " makes sense, iff you consider dementia. if you're right-wing when you're old, you still have no brains, but if you've never been left-wing even in your youth, you've probably always been a sad sack of shit

@xkcd@mastodon.com.br cars should be designed to sacrifice the driver's life to save others. the driver chose to get behind the wheel, so he should have to bear that risk.

@standev@mstdn.social however, i am currently considering licking a stick of lithium. i am never doing that with a sheet of lead.

@standev@mstdn.social oh, i didn't even notice uranium being yellow--uranium, even the stable isotopes, seems to be nastily toxic even disregarding its radioactivity. i agree that it should probably be the same as lead.

@jeffowski Radon and mercury should both be green. Lead should be red.
