I had a wiener dog that absolutely SLAYED moles like it was his job. Seriously, I bet he killed more than a hundred over a few years. I guess it kind of was his job, wieners are bred to hunt burrowing animals like that. Dachshund is German for “badger hound”.

Anyway, he got a little older, fatter, and lazier, and we also moved to an area with tougher soil, so his mole slaying days were over (we thought). But then we got a young German Shepherd, and he figured out that he could find the mole (his downward pointing ears made him good at that), start digging the hole, and then stand back and let her take over. Then after she did all the hard work of grabbing and killing the thing, he would steal it from her and come present it to us very proudly.

He wasn’t a terribly bright dog, so I was really impressed when he started doing that. The German Shepherd was way smarter than him by any measure, but I think she didn’t care that he was taking credit for her kills. She was just having fun helping him. Both excellent dogs, I miss them a lot.

Lol. So many ponies

Kate McKinnon. She was on SNL for a long time, and she’s not-so-secretly the best part of a lot of the movies she’s in, even with minor roles.

Obviously there are various forms of sugar in a lot of things, it’s just a carbohydrate. My point is that there is zero reason to ever ADD sugar to any food, period. It is not an essential nutrient and it does not add anything beneficial other than flavor. It only promotes tooth decay, diabetes, and eventual organ failure. Yum.

Yep, that’s the main problem with all the buzzword substances that diet culture is obsessed with: fat, salt, carbs, etc… All of those are fine in moderation, but the problem is that the processed garbage that the average person eats for lunch contains a RIDICULOUS amount of those things.

Not sugar, though. Sugar is just bad for you, full stop. 😆

That’s not heterophobia, that’s just being horrified by ignorant bigots that are also hetero.

The mildly homophobic nature of the question is hilarious. “Would you want to live forever if you also had to be a little bit gay???”

You can do a lot better by buying your own modem and router, but that can be expensive. The thing you’re doing right now is a good idea if you don’t want to spend a lot of money, whine at your internet provider and get them to send you a better router.

I’m smart enough to know that there’s a lot I don’t know, and I took enough psychology classes to know that IQ tests are basically made-up nonsense. Comparing your intelligence to others is a losing battle and a waste of time.

One of the perks of being agnostic is that you don’t have to tell people you’re agnostic. When others ask me about my religion, I just shrug and say I was raised Christian but I’m not really religious anymore. I don’t mention that I’m agnostic unless they pry and ask more questions.

Not really, you’re ideally paying for a server that you have complete control of. The differences are mostly just fundamental limitations.

Example: if you’re hosting off site, you will always be connecting remotely, so your access depends on a network connection. If you’re hosting at home then your stuff is still accessible when your internet goes down

Depends on how much money they take over the long term I assume.

Personally I don’t care and I don’t really think it’s THAT unethical, but it is definitely theft. So be aware if you pull little tricks like that in the future. If you get caught, you’ll DEFINITELY get fired and your employer MIGHT press charges (and they would win).

Uhhhhh honey what you’re describing is called “theft”. Also known as “fraud” if you want a different name.

But to answer your question, I usually shit during working hours, so I get paid to shit. It’s a great feeling.

It’s fine, if hit-and-run leeching was a huge problem then more trackers would enforce seed ratios. But most don’t, because it’s not. The fact that you mostly leech just means that you can’t most private trackers. Oh well, just use the public trackers instead and seed what you can.

Right, a KVM’s usefulness is narrow and you’re ideally using it as a sort of backup to a backup of critical systems. That means you usually only hear about them in server environments, and that means that sysadmins pay a LOT of money for enterprise-grade KVMs.

But it’s very cool that we can build a dirt cheap, half-decent KVM out of a Pi nowadays. I might have just left mine running if I there wasn’t a Pi shortage; I wanted that Pi for other stuff.

It’s good for critical systems that you might need to reboot and do things like see the BIOS (which you can’t see if you’re using a normal VNC-type remote access solution). It’s probably not necessary for most setups, but it can be very useful in certain situations. I made one myself, then literally never used it, and I’m now using that Pi in a different project.

Lmao what the hell kind of response is this? Looks like AI generated nonsense with spelling mistakes.

I’ve heard of people bagging and relocating them several miles away. Makes sense to me if you’re careful about where you put them. Not sure how kosher that is though…

It should be noted that this is advice specific to white men in Western countries 😆 but yes, it’s true.
