Indeed it is brother… indeed it is.

Rugby players.

I don’t care for sports so much, but a ton of my friends play rugby. Several of my exes play rugby. I’ve got cousins who play rugby. I live in the States and, while rugby is popular, it’s no where near the levels of enthusiasm where like 90% of the people a person hangs out with plays it (and you not also play or have any real interest in it). Mostly to support people I was dating, I’ve been to like ten games in my life and, while I understand how the game is played, I’m just completely uninterested in sports and following sports as a hobby or interest. I don’t know why, but rugby people love me and I love them.

Season 1 was basically Seth MacFarlane’s TNG fan scripts… it’s a Star Trek series through and through.

I really loved the “Anchor Man” DVD menu. Solid graphics, great playthrough, simple controls.

Behind the Bastards is fucking great! If you like their stuff, you might also enjoy “Respect The Dead (A Podcast Where We Don’t).” It’s a kind of queer younger sibling to BTB and a whole lot of fun, but they only cover people who are for sure dead.

Was gonna say, I think I’ve seen that porn.

Yeah, Apple was able to fall on their faces with the Lisa but still get to the Macintosh and greatness.

This is going to be my Year of Linux, finally taking the plunge. Nothing special, just a used laptop running Mint to replace a Chromebook (who’s hardware has finally failed). Gonna try to replace my gaming PC next year once I’ve got more of a handle on the different distros and have played around with them (and more money).

because I do not trust big tech.

Dude, same. I mean, I get that’s why many are here, but it’s just gotten so much worse lately.

Starting to build my first Linux machine to use as my daily driver laptop. Been meaning to get into it all for years, but Microsoft’s constant shenanigans as of late and everyone on Lemmy really pushed me to take the plunge.

It’ll be a “baby’s first project” of a used Thinkpad running on Mint, but it’s a start to getting out from under these corporate fucks. Every step away is a step to which I’m not planning to return.

Yeah, the plan was similar to when Time-Warner acquired Myspace only to not understand what a social media site is inherently; then fumble the bag and sell as fast as possible. They really fucked themselves left right and center on that deal… but everyone’s friend Tom is still a multimillionaire.

Automattic declined to share a time frame as to when the migration would be complete, given its scale, but a rep for the company called the progress so far “exciting.”

Yeah, they’ve been talking about this for years now.

OMG, are y’all dating now?

Finally pulled the trigger and started emailing therapists to look for who’s taking clients. That I got anxiety just thinking about doing this should have been my first clue I need therapy.

“No, no, no, it’s not a company town… it’s a company tower… which is completely different. By the way, did you meet Brian? He’s the new manager of the convenience store the company opened in the lobby. It’s right next to the company elementary school. You can use the company issued script to buy stuff there, it’s great!”

In the case of Rowling, it wasn’t a smoke screen so much as black mold.

Sounds like they have a lot in common… it’s a nice meet cute.
