Russia has treaties with Britain since like 1904 that obligated it to engage in WWI. Thats how the murder of a Serbian devolved into a world war

Outcome of leading to the downfall of the regime regardless, it was a little different than Afghanistan or Ukraine

Time is weird. A few years ago, I would have agreed. Now I feel that everything from March 2020 to now was just yesterday, and everything before covid is ancient history

I use Merkur shaver with Cremo cream. Here’s my process:

turn faucet on until hot water running. Wet face. Apply cream. Shave. Rinse and dry

It literally isn’t different from shaving with a cartridge except a better shave, more pleasant, and cheaper. OK, it probably takes 10 seconds extra to change the blade vs popping cartridge, but that’s it

I shaved with an electric for a couple years, bad shaves and bad skin

What are you, a rival DCL school alumnus? I mean, not Weston obviously, cause that’s a thing. It’s a better name for a display server than Lincoln-Sudbury or Cambridge Ridge and Latin

Or are you just traumatized by the 128/Pike interchange traffic?

*looks west to Egypt. hmmm

Alternate browser engines

EU save us

lol, that brought back memories

Well there are/were systems like that, Crunchbang bring the one that pops into my mind most immediately, but there are others. I think they’re the minority though, even something like MX which you might say is just Debian with a nice xfce has the option of not using systemd, pop and mint don’t ship with snaps…so a bit more than just themeing…where to draw the line?

Firefox focus. It can be set as ad blocker not just as a history deleting browser. I use Firefox as my main browser on ios, but I don’t really see ads anywhere phone-wide

Wealthy enough to exercise? Wtf?

Ain’t even going there

At this point in my life no. When I was young, for sure

Whoa settle down there

Sucrose is 1:1 glucose/ fructose which is near the optimal 0.8 ratio for fueling endurance activities

I rode 100 miles solo in less than 5 hours Sunday on 360g sucrose in 4 750ml bottles

It’sa lot cheaper than all that fancy SIS/skratch etc

Carbs aren’t poison if you move your body

This was sort of a thing in the brief netbook flowering

It didn’t work

Very much so. Unless there are in kernel drivers, support is all over the map, particularly for newer or “non standard” hardware with proprietary drivers

Great to see

Closest I got to running it though was Zenwalk for about 6 months in 2009

Bodhi linux users do. Their Moksha desktop is based on Enlightenment, and the pace of development, while not speedy, is ongoing

just an FYI, the rum is probably much more carcinogenic. WHO has had a statement on that for some time https://www.who.int/europe/news/item/04-01-2023-no-level-of-alcohol-consumption-is-safe-for-our-health

I’ve been on Pop for a couple of years now (?3), I just keep upgrading, and nothing breaks. It has all the applications I need, no snaps, I’m very familiar with ubuntu/debian systems, and it just keeps ticking along. Usually I’d distrohop when whatever I was using would crap out, but Pop just keeps trucking along

Martin Wimpress is working on it https://github.com/wimpysworld/nix-config

is there enough activity for that?
