All the disgusting hyoo-mons in this thread sound like they’d allow their feemales to wear clothes.

its stability is described as “some risk”)

I wonder if that just means that Fedora is (almost-but-not-quite) rolling release, and thus is inherently riskier if you need stability? That’s how I interpreted it, but if it’s referring to some kind of Framework-specific issues, then that’s concerning.

I love my Thinkpad (X1 Yoga) and have been a Thinkpad addict for a long time. These frameworks look really good on paper and seem to be doing everything right, but I’m too scared to leave the warm embrace of the red nipple.

“You are not going to take my child,” Rebekah Hubley said. “This is the most ludacris thing I have ever heard in my entire life.”

Wow, seriously. I’m constantly surprised by how low USCIS can go. You’d think they’d want to roll out the red carpet considering the value immigrants can bring to this economy! Border towns complain about immigrants filling up their neighborhoods, but there are tons of area codes that would be happy to take them in. And besides, if you don’t like your neighbors, then move bitch! People like this give southern hospitality a bad name, and a they should get back to fucking goats or whatever it is they were doing before the internet.

So good on you, Rebekah. Most people don’t stand up for themselves, but you’re doing some good shit.

This isn’t quite the full story. The OP is editorialized clickbait. The engineer wasn’t just “criticizing” NC infrastructure, he was testifying in a lawsuit against it, and the defense complained about it to the NC board of examiners for engineers because he did not have a license. The board then sent him a letter saying they were investigating him for practicing engineering without a license.

“Wayne’s troubles began when he agreed to help his son, Kyle, a North Carolina attorney, with a case about a piping system that allegedly flooded a few local homes. In his deposition, Wayne testified truthfully that he was not (and never had been) a licensed engineer. In fact, like the majority of engineers nationwide, Wayne was not required to get a license since he worked for a company under the state’s “industrial exception,’” according to the Institute of Justice.

So it’s still stupid, but it’s not as stupid as the OP is making it out to be (for those sweet sweet clicks).

Python is the best language for tooling and systems stuff. It’s like bash, but good (and portable)

but the habit of overeating is gone

It’s only gone as long as they stay on the drug. Unless they make an effort to change their lifestyle and eating habits while they’re on the drug, nothing will change. For people who have immediate health issues due to their weight, then a drug like that makes sense. But for fat people trying to lose weight, I don’t think it’s sustainable.

I’m fortunate to be of a healthy weight and I’ve never had to worry about obesity. However, I do consciously make choices to eat less even when my body begs me to eat more. I feel like it would be much harder to develop that “skill” if I was on a drug like ozembic. The point is to learn to say “no” when my body is begging me to say “yes”.

I have a family member with a kid about to enter middle school who is very likely going to end up being this guy. We’ve been trying to de-weeb him, but it’s not going great. I think when the ninjutsu sinks its kunai in at such a young age, it’s a lost cause. My only hope now is to just make sure he knows how to run properly.

That’s is what it looks like when a Lemmy user goes super saiyan.
