  1. Been in Mexico almost 7 years- it's common knowledge, you don't drink the tap water, ever. The destitute who can't afford bottled water might be the exception.
  2. adjacent perhaps but I am looking forward to this book https://nostarch.com/game-boy-coding-adventure
  3. cocaine shark was the obvious sequel
  4. No. The parents are responsible for their children, not tech firms or anyone else.
  5. I don't use it but it's one of the few projects I have followed the change log fairly religiously for many years (others being Slackware and MAME which I also rarely use)
  6. Google was acting up for me as well, so that could be
  7. flying is not safer than driving- unless you drive 500 miles with 150 other people every time you get in the car- statistics are massaged, and I think risk of accident per journey is better (and is higher in flying)

  8. If I was 104 I would have just made the dive without a chute and gone out that way
  9. I was on a plane during an aborted landing over the weekend, I think the 2nd/3rd I've experienced. I always assume death will occur shortly after but it hasn't yet.
  10. I'll have you know in Mexico my eggs are still $1.50 or less a dozen
  11. Was about to say- dietary cholesterol doesn't matter! Eat those eggs folks
  12. Come on Telegram uncensored!
  13. His traitorous nature made official
  14. I wouldn't touch this with a ten foot pole so good riddance
  15. I don't have any problem with giving monkeys a job, but it does appear they were abused in this case
  16. I use obsidian because apple notes lost all my notes amazingly when syncing between two computers and my phone- and my hope is that the markdown file method that obsidian uses in iCloud will be more resilient.

    That said I'd rather have something that versions my notes files

  17. I was going to guess without reading the article that it has to do with Drs etc arriving at work at 8am and mothers waiting until they arrive to have the baby extracted- seems about right
  18. I must say props for the BAP reference
  19. the based Riddley Walker
  20. this one is probably the only good book on this subject
  21. I don't want Knuth to Robert Jordan/George RR Martin himself so I'm waiting for vol 5 to complete before purchasing the set
  22. we should put speed limiters on cars so they can't go faster than 5 mph and endanger someone else
  23. nah. my bank, electric company, telephone carrier, internet carrier, and social media platforms (effectively the public square) should have no choice but to carry me regardless of my opinions
  24. it aligns with my values on free speech and I think social media platforms should be common carriers and be forced to allow all free speech (aside from fire in a crowded theater)
  25. fine with downvoting, just no banning or censoring for unpopular opinions
  26. 100% agree with florida here, would be huge for me
  27. I'm not an elixir programmer but I saw that and decided to pick it up
  28. there's no chance in hell I'd clean my airbnb if there's a fee attached

    when I go to a hotel or airbnb etc (and yes, they are equivalent) the main reason for me doing so is that I have no intention of cleaning up after myself

  29. Just received Kubernetes: Up & Running 3rd edition from Amazon yesterday, but good to know there will soon be some alternatives
