    He does a years worth of updates in like 3 or 4 weeks and then takes off for like 6 months. For me that’s acceptable. When he does get around to it, he pushes updates like the Flash on speed and fixes nearly all flagged issues in addition to adding new features that have been requested.

    I did that once, I was staying at a family as an exchange student and immediately forced to help with chores. Now, they ran a large creche from that house so there were a lot of different chores and being on dishes could mean slaving away in the kitchen for well over an hour.

    Anyway, I didn’t know shit about how to properly dispose of oil and in the first or second week poured a large pan of oil down the drain. It ended up ruining some stuff and they had a hefty repair bill. I may be cynical, but I never gave a damn about it as they were basically using me as free labor anyway. Helping with household chores = ok. Helping clean up the gigantic daily mess of those shitty kids in your shitty creche = not ok

    I have 4 cats and I handle them all without getting scratched while trimming their nails. There is one cat that will bite the nail scissors, she is tricky to handle because of that. When she catches a finger between the nail scissors and her teeth, she bites full force and that does not make a pleasant experience. I tried burritoing her, but it’s just easier to have her on her back and using sleight of hand to distract her.



  • I used to like mac OS when I used it on a macbook as a daily driver, years ago (haven’t owned a mac in a decade now). But recently I helped my mom set up a new macbook and I found it unwield.

    I’m also with you on the Ubuntu and gnome front, although a buddy of mine swears with it. I just don’t like it. Not sure why, I have tried to work with Ubuntu + GNOME several times and I always end up switching to a different build.



  • The rag called metro making news from random stuff again, I see. This is not even news. It’s literally “reporting” that something is not happening.

    Like this: “Intel not buying AMD for 6B$” Industry insiders report that Intel has decided not to buy their rivals for 6B$. The CEO of AMD has reportedly stated having no interest in selling to Intel. Their spokesperson, when confronted with this breaking news, replied “WTF have you been smoking, Pringles?” We will continue to report on this story as it continues to develop.
