actually opposite?

A cult is a thing, the opposite is not a thing. You can't name not a thing.

It's just everyone else doing whatever they want.

Tell me more.

Only the Salux brand though. I've gotten knock off ones that were way too smooth.

yep bullshit holidays.

I'm a dad and I love spending time with my kids. I absolutely don't want them to ever feel obligated to hang out with me or buy me a card or present or anything because of some bullshit holiday.

My wife is on all the normal social media, insta, Facebook and such, and has such high expectations for mothers day because it seems to have become some sort of requirement to make a post bragging about what your family did for you on mother's day.

I hate it all so much.

I spend time with the people I love and I frequently tell them how much I love them and do things to demonstrate it too.

mother's day, father's day, valentine's day and Christmas gift giving expectations can all go fuck right off.

Fuck it. It's a rental, amiright!?

Mine shows the full path and a new line for commands.

It will also print the exit code of the last command in red above the prompt, if the exit code is not 0.

PS1='$(ec="$?"; if [ $ec -gt 0 ]; then echo -e "\n"[\e[91m]"exit code: $ec"[\e[0m]; fi)\n[\e[92m]\u[\e[38;5;213m]@[\e[38;5;39m]\h[\e[0m]:$PWD\n$ '

We may be part of a simulation. Our entire universe may be a microscopic component of a much larger one. We may be weird 3 dimensional beings living on a planet inhabited by beings living in other dimensions that we cannot perceive. Their actions may affect our lives.

There are so many possibilities, I don't think it would ever be possible to truly know anything for certain.

I don't know for sure what I am, where I am, or why I am. But I am.

Other people and animals seem to have this same knowledge of their own existence. So I try to treat all humans and animals as I would like to be treated.

We don't know if we have a purpose but being kind, helping others, spreading joy and finding peace in beauty and love seems to be a pretty good way to go for me.

Interesting. I just imported a Debian cloud image.

My 72 year old, non techy father in law had a laptop that could not be updated to Windows 11 without modifying the installer to get around Microsoft limitations. I suggested Linux, He decided to just buy a new laptop with Windows 11 on it. About a week later he was complaining about the way Microsoft was forcing him to have an online account and how he wanted to get rid of onedrive. I suggested Linux again and he said why not?

I installed Linux Mint for him and gave him the password. I offered to show him around but he said he would take a look at it and let me know if he has trouble doing anything.

Its been a few months now, and he hasn't had any problems or even questions. Everything is just working for him.

I also gave my 16 year old daughter a Linux Mint laptop and the password a couple of years ago. She uses it all the time and has never asked for help in figuring out how to do anything.

The distro doesn't really matter too much, but if you are coming from Windows 7 or 10, Linux Mint will seem very familiar to you.

TIL that Arch users are Pastafarians.

May you be touched by his Noodly appendage!
