I always felt Marcie's use of "Sir!" for Patty was an acceptance and respect for Patty's tomboy-ness, which is why I ship.
But, yeah, after seeing the replies and checking the Wikipedia article, I think I do remember some scenarios that made Patty's attraction to "Chuck" coupled with his obliviousness the punchline.
That's not quite true. If you can't complete a build without a proprietary dependency, it's not really foss even if all the source code is freely available, because you can't exercise the freedom 1 (or 3). Similarly, if there's not a FOSS RTS, you can't exercise freedom 0.
"The Java Trap" from RMS was about this, IIRC.
Oi! Can we get an admin over here? r/PrequelMemes is leaking again!
I've gotten to 42% vegan, 42% lacto-vegetarian, and 14% omnivore, but I can and should do better.
But, I don't think individual action is the "right" solve for this. I think we have to cap emissions by regulation. We could do cap and trade if will had really good measures for removal and capture, but we can't depend on self-reporting for that.
Are Patty and Marcie a couple? They were in my head, but that could be some lesbian fetishism from my toxic masculinity...
Nix is an awesome idea. The language sucks donkey balls. I wish Nickel (typed Nix language) was still being worked on.
Well, I wasn't a doctor, but I was a programmer well on my way to becoming upper-middle class, maybe even Capital instead of Labor.
But, for reasons probably largely unrelated to how neurotypical I may (or may not) be, that's been "on hold" for some years and I'm not sure I'll be able to get back "on track".
I doubt that's a useful datapoint, and I probably shouldn't even post this.
Yeah, I run a mixed (unsupported) system from time to time for hw support, but testing requires a lot for admin time than stable does, so I can certainly see that moving to something more malleable than stable. Arguably that's what I'm doing while my system is mixed, since it's not (supported) Debian.
Do you have a job?
I don't currently. Are you hiring computer programmers? I've got 20+ applications sent out via Indeed, but I haven't found one yet.
Even when I was employed, I still visited the library, a few bars, and the saturday farmer's market. While I don't think visiting the bar is necessarily a must, you really should participate in your local library and farmer's market. Connecting to your community is important.
I installed Gentoo 2004.3 under the watchful eye of a Gentoo developer. (Gentoo did come in handy because I was using amd64 Opterons before most binary distributions had 64-bit packages.) It also took me about 3 years to get tired of rebuilding world "continuously". I similarly switch to Debian on 2007-11 and I'm writing this from that installation, just migrated across several generations of hardware.
"They'll get healthy enough" is an albist view, no matter what else you might believe in.
Probably Plaid. They ask for online banking credentials instead of doing the "traditional" collect ACH, do two sub-dollar transactions, confirm amounts.
They settled a lawsuit that claimed they were scraping private transactions and selling them. They didn't admit fault, but I still refuse to hand them my credentials.
Despite that, they remain popular, since MOST users willingly provide those credentials and get a faster account linking experience, which makes them much more likely to stick around and transfer money into the service recommending Plaid as the linking method.
I've also heard there as some services that refuse to use the "traditional" ACH method of account linking, only allowing Plaid.
