The least death could do is take a pull. What a wheel sucker!

I’ve read several books in the Objectivists library, including Atlas shrugged, the fountainhead, and the virtue of selfishness.

For a certain kind of person, I do think they have value in showing a different ethical/moral framework. To wit, if you have been raised on the principal that you must always sacrifice your own happiness for others, then Onjectivist philosophy is quite novel and can actually be helpful in moving towards a more self-actualized thought mode.

For most others, however, it can turn you into a raging a-hole.

In terms of how tenable the overall principles are in practice, just remember that Rand herself went on social security.

Service guarantees citizenship! Would you like to know more?

I also believe that student loans are not dischargeable in bankruptcy.

Medicine too.

An instrument in my lab is running jdk 1_8_131…and this is a recent/newish piece of equipment.

Creation of embryos should happen entirely outside the body of the female, followed by decapitation of the male as God intended.

Ha ha. Yes of course. Corrected.

Windows is like the corner prostitute: pay some money, usually get what you want although not the best, occasionally get some horrible disease

Linux is like the sweet SO: has its quirks but you love them for it. let’s you grow in your skills but that can be challenging at times. Surprises you in good and bad ways.

Edit: for grammar

Can confirm that with pihole you still get these. I browse with vanilla chrome on my phone at home and use a pihole, and I get these messages.

Dammit. Beat me to it

You haven’t installed Linux until you’ve done it in the original Klingon.

I feel this.

Although my last bootloader is adventure was pretty easy…installed a completely separate drive for Linux and wanted to boot off of that drive (sdb). A bug in the Linux mint installer put the bootloader on my the windows drive instead (sda).

Was fairly straightforward to switch over though (change in fstab then installing grub). I use the bios boot selector (F11) for me to select either the win loader or my Linux mint efi.

Am switching over to Linux as primary driver. So tired of nags, ads, “switch to Edge”, long updates, etc. love being able to ssh+x onto that (relatively beefy) box from my laptop and run ides and such.

He did do one on world war II regarding the history and rise of the Japanese empire. Like all of his podcast, is very well done.

Reminding me of corrupted .mdb files means I need more alcohol tonight to pacify the demons in my head

OMG I feel old.

Also regret the money I spent buying Sun stock in the late 90s.
