I was shopping for parts for a Halloween costume at the beginning of the month. Christmas music was playing in the store.

Just don’t.

Actually, I think that one at least has some history to it.

The disk drive was one of the first ways to store information between computer sessions as the first computers didn’t have built in storage. You would create a program, run it, and then when you shut the computer off it was gone. Since the disk drive was used to store programs for later, or “save” them, the icon was born from the physical object.

Sharing, conversely, doesn’t really have a real world example to base the icon on. Maybe two hands exchanging things? Perhaps two arrows to illustrate the ability for things to go both ways? Maybe a set of interconnected dots to show the connection between things? Any of them could work, so the iconography is less clear.

But people always judge them as slow because they only see them on land. Sometimes you just gotta find your place in the world to really excel.

Mining Accidents

I love hearing about a new tool like this.

I disagree.

• XP felt like it was mine.
• 7 felt like it was mine
• 8 felt like they were trying to force something on me.
• 10 felt like they were pushing bloatware like a cell phone. At least l could remove some of that?
• 11 feels like they decided it’s their computer, I’m just renting time in it by watching ads. You could remove half the programs by default and I would not miss any of them. Do I need a version of minesweeper with micro transactions? No!

I’m not certain I want to know what this means. I kinda love the idea that this is just an idiom that is or was common. Is it modern? Ancient? Could be either, could be both!

Frustratingly, those are actually two separate plans.

Frodo’s necklace isn’t invisible; therefore, we can assume that it does not work unless worn on a body part specifically, as he is wearing it while it is on the necklace but he is not invisible.

The real question is what body parts would work. Fingers obviously do, but would toes? Cockring? Nose piercing? Could you say that the ring being in his butt counts as wearing it? If someone can go outside wearing nothing but a buttplug, then there is some president.

Can only buttplugs be worn, or can anything be worn in the butt? Is a ring a buttplug? Cash or credit?

Only if you’re doing it right. Witnesses are a problem.

Wait, did you say vacation?

In much the way I am aware of the Windows store: I avoid it and work to get the software directly from the source. I regularly run into the issue of software not being there or being of unknown version.

Perhaps that is some bias from Windows following me over.

I’m literally trying to get into Linux and one of the first things was installing software, which involves copying and running random bits of code from whatever website has the highest search result. I would say a lot of software is running code you have no idea what it does.

So, you’re not all right?

Every station I have gone to with them has had the mute button labeled or at least functional. If they didn’t, I would never return.

The only time they are useful is when they offer a coupon for something I was already going to buy, but that happens so infrequently I’d rather have my attention back.

I don’t think an inflatable wrench would work very well.

I tried out podman at first, but I found many docker instances simply provide a string of crap instead of explanations. It was easy to get a grasp of how docker worked, and now that I have an idea I feel like I could jump into podman better.

Manual? You mean the half-finished wiki someone put together that is the only source of information while also missing the information I need?
