Cycling. If you have a bike you can choose how much power you put through the pedals. I used to commute everyday by bike and I’d really put an effort in each way riding as hard and fast as I could. And one flat I lived in was at the tip of a brutal climb which I used to attack every day, arriving back spent. As it happened I did that same climb today and I struggled to get up it at all, I was definitely fitter 10 years ago!

I took a break from riding for a few years and barely touched my bikes but am now getting back in to it. But this time I’m deliberately trying to go slow. Find the local trails and low traffic areas and pootle along. I’ve been having great fun just exploring. But then if I want to try ride up the big hills I can do that too. I also never used to stop as side for traffic. But you can stop whenever you feel like. Bring some food and a drink and stop for a few minutes or at a cafe.

Have you tried switching to Linux?

In the UK, “programme” is used for events, TV shows, and schedules, while “program” is specifically used in computing contexts.

My advise it to not bother. As soon as you need device specific firewall rules the whole thing falls apart. The evangelicals dont like this fact and will down vote me for saying it.

No one needs IPv6 in their home on their devices.

Theres also a difference between dropping out of somewhere like Harvard and a back water university.

Here’s me unable to grow a beard in my 40s :-(

“IPv4 is running out of IP addresses so therefore every local network needs to move to IPv6” is a full clown move.

The same as every new service over the past 20 years. Start with free, then when they’re hooked add the advertising, paywalls and ramp up the enshitification to the Max. You need to grab market share with a loss leader, dominate and become the defacto standard before you turn your users into money providers.

Who the hell can say they’ve “contributed to the advancement of humanity”?

Give me a break

All that happens at boot is that linux.exe calls systemd.exe, uses all your system resources making your machine unusable bloat.

It’s almost as if people think systemd is one massive executable rather than a suite of tools

I can’t tell how strong that magnet is, but I wouldn’t risk it with my data.

Charging them 20x a week sounds ridiculous.

A way of keeping people employed usefully in many highly skilled jobs so you don’t need to give them social security payouts for being jobless. In this way it is a truly excellent idea.

I love Nirvana. I think a good case can be made that Nirvana were the only grunge band and that the others like you mentioned were grunge only in that they shared a fashion. They aren’t really the same genre of music, just look. IMHO.

A 1959 Gibson Les Paul in to a Marshall Plexi.

They’d have to be able to run a sub 21 minute 5K. For no other reason than it’d remove a lot of politicians from the running (DYSWIDT).

There’s probably about 3x as many people as there should be, but there are no good solutions to that. I think a Logans Run style setup might work as long as there’s a cool laser show and some cool music to go with it I think it could gain popularity as a spectator event.

The man should be in jail for child abuse.

China is in a very similar position to where the US was in the 1950s
