You Linux users sure are a contentious people.

The Mail has less utility than toilet paper.

MATLAB: And I took that personally.

It’s ok, not every social event is going to go well and most of the time it’s nothing personal, we’re all just kind of bumbling along through the confusing and absurd reality that is life.

May I join this group hug?

First a $40 fee just to swipe plastic is stupid, even VISA don’t charge anywhere near that much for the card machine operator. Sorry you have to deal with that.

Also does the US not have smartphone banking apps? Do you have to pay fees for a bank transfer? Is it the landlord setting those fees? I’m confused how a free at point of use system is getting slapped with a fee.

Why does everyone in the US have to write cheques to eachother, wasting everyone’s time going in person to the bank to cash them in? Even my employer just does a bank transfer to pay me my income.

That’s fucking ridiculous, sorry to hear that.

But why can’t your landlord just accept a bank transfer every month you can set up on your banking app? Is this not a thing in the US?

Who the hell is still writing cheques? Does this landlord also contact the tenant by carrier pigeon?

Unless this one has John Bercow as the robotic speaker of the house, I’m not interested.

This is the one with John Bercow, I’m sold!

When a whippet has better style than me…

And thus the inherent dichotomy of a decentralised social network is revealed: social networks require the network effect for good senses of communities which means one instance will end up hosting most of the bigger communities, therefore true decentralisation can’t occur on Lemmy but it’s a step in the right direction.

I am not going to like the day they remove that.

Like an emotionally abusive partner.

Oh for fucks sake.

The Royal Observatory Greenwich:

“Well, as the first to co-ordinate time we-”

The International Telecommunication Union and International Earth Rotation and Reference Systems Service in Unison:

“Excuse me, I think you’ll find we manage the time.”

NIST: “I don’t see your footprints up there! We’re going off my Omega Speedmaster!”

T’was a reference good sir

The only way this could have been better was if the tattoo was some beautifully kerned font above the ass that said “the kernel compiling, look busy”.

What’s the counter to that sentence then?

Every time I try to explain why this is a dumb sentence using the door lock analogy I always get rebuffed by it.

So is there a 9th circle? Would that be a programming language where the only way to compile would be to speak op-codes out loud in the correct sequence & cadence into a microphone?

CIA agents glow in the dark.
