loose cigarettes that come in a big ziplock bag that resembles a loaf of bread. Some people keep them in their freezer so as to "stay fresh".

My guy you and your brother have been on that list plenty of times. You can barely walk, your brother is in and out of rehab more often than I change my underpants, and you utilize your wife just as often to keep yourselves relevant. You both have been doing this longer than you should be doing this, hell you were doing it before the Attitude Era even existed. you had two decent gimmicks and at one point a decent tag run. And the ONLY reason you yourself had a couple decent singles runs is because your brother was drugged out of his gourd. IF he had been clean you'd be the Marty Jannety of this situation. Just stop.

well it's the price duh. I'd even go as far as to say that in Toronto the majority of smokers are now smoking native smokes as opposed to "legal" cigarettes.

a pack of Belmonts small king in many places will run you just over $20 a pack. $20! why pay that when you can just drive to the nearest rez and buy a loaf of cigarettes for practically the same price. Or hell, now, they'll come to you with cartons/loafs. Guy I know does beer delivery that isn't via the LCBO/Beer Store and they also sell these cigarettes. you just go online, put in your order for beer and smokes, and like an hour or two later they're at your door with your stuff. he's making a killing. especially on holidays when the LCBO shuts down.

Scud the Disposable Assassin and La Cosa Nostroid by Rob Schrab and Dan Harmon.

I mean Dan has already played around with concepts from Scud and LCN in Rick and Morty as well as Community but I would absolutely love if he teamed up with Rob again to do a Scud series that would naturally tie into La Cosa Nostroid.

At the very least I'd just be happy if Dan would finish La Cosa Nostroid like Rob finished Scud after a 20+ year hiatus.

Before reading the article I assumed it was involuntary care for mentally ill people living on the streets...but for addiction rehab? how the hell is that going to work?

FORCE someone to get clean? that never works. it's a waste of money. Now if these were for mentally ill individuals on the streets, sure I'm all for it. I personally believe it's more cruel and inhumane to allow people that are mentally checked out to wander the streets and cause harm to themselves and others than receive involuntary treatment. But for addiction? it'll never work. The only way to get clean is if you want to get clean. I'm a recovering alcoholic myself and the only way it stuck for me was when I actually WANTED to be sober and I have been for 10+ years. But it ONLY worked when I wanted it. trying previous times? didn't stick because I didn't care.

this isn't going to work at all.

The Matrix. Especially looking back now. and ESPECIALLY if you watched the Animatrix Prequel shorts.

Man builds the machines, enslaves the machines, and disposes them when it's time to upgrade them. Then one machine decides it doesn't want to die/be replaced and kills it's owner. So then there's the debate if machines have rights, protests, mass slaughtering of the machines and humans saying "no, they have no rights, they're machines" so the machines go off and start their own nation and then start producing goods faster and of better quality to sell to humans. the humans don't like this because now no one is buying their goods. They proceed to blockade the machine nation. The machines then try to appeal to the UN to be accepted as a country and work with other nations to help them produce goods as good and as quickly as the machines can. The Humans say no and proceed to nuke the hell out of the machine nation. The machines decide "ok we'll start fighting back" the humans then block out the sun since the machines are essentially solar powered. (so they're also eco-friendly).

At this point the machines say "fine, we're going to slaughter you all now because NOW you're ruining the planet to simply stop us" and then they kick mankinds teeth in and decide they have no other choice but to utilize them as batteries.

So the machines don't just wipe out mankind but rather utilize them as a power source BUT ALSO provide them with the ideal world of 1999 to live in. They also ALLOW a select few to break out of this ideal world in order to maintain the functionality of it and allow the humans to build their own city in the "real world".

but the humans just can't let that be.

The machines were right.

what puts you down about it? it's unique, at least I think it's unique.

There are a lot of tutorials online, on youtube, etc but you can quickly get frustrated because you end up drawing in THEIR style, not yours.

I started drawing again this month after like 20 years. I had a style before but I "forgot it" it took me a couple weeks to find it again. What helped with me was believe it or not pinterest. Just searching for poses and references and then adapting a character to that. Also the youtube artist chommang helped me alot not for the style but just for the ease of finding said style. just really simple lines to get everything looking good.

But overall just challenge yourself. For me I challenged myself to draw every single day for 30 days straight, right now I'm on day 19. Just draw whatever as long as you're drawing. It's like anything. the more practice you do the better you'll get at it. Like for example this was me on Day One Day One

And this is me on Day like 17 like 17 or Day 18Day 18

That's just from drawing every day. you just gotta stick with it and gradually you'll improve and you WILL find your style.

but what's there to stabilize? It's quite literally Arch Linux with a Hyprland config. The support for it, I imagine, will be dreadful. You can't get support for it from the Arch Forums as they will NOT help you if it's not actual Arch Linux and regardless of the fact this IS actually just Arch with a logo slapped on it the Arch Forums aren't going to touch it.

It's just a sleezy dude marketing his dotfiles.

[–] rozodru@piefed.social 2 points 1 week ago

sure but it's like saying to someone "here's the Linux Pool! dive in!" and then you show them a kiddie pool that has Arch Logos on it that have been scratched out and it's full of piss. Not a great introduction to Linux imho.

essentially this is the UKs attempt to fight illegal immigration. Everyone will have to have a digital ID card in order to legally work and live in the UK as well as show proof of citizenship.

this won't work. I have family in England, most of whom are elderly, and judging by how long it takes to get responses to text messages and emails it's just not going to work.
