Costco has this Italian water - carbonated if I recall - 8 bottles in a pack if I recall.

It’s always been on the pricey side… I think it was $12 or so when we first started buying it occasionally, likely 7-8 years ago. Then it went up to $16 seemingly overnight - now I think it’s close to $20.

It is a luxury, no question. It’s not that we can’t afford it, just that it is a LOT of money for water, lol. We get it less than once a year now, but it is always a very nice treat when we do.

But also, why is everybody so offended by censored words here? I don’t get it.

The biggest reason seems to be that it will evade filters, which people set up very intentionally and specifically to keep these Fedi-spaces a safe place for them mentally.

So, for example, someone comes here to get away from the ‘real world’ and news and whatnot, may have a filter that blocks anything with the word “Trump”, or one I actually see censored a lot more often, “Israel”

Then someone makes a post about “Isr*el is so bad” and it sails right through their filters.

On the fastest drive I have, longevity be dammed. I buy fast hardware because I want my computer to be fast - having my RAM (likely the fastest thing in the system) swap to a slow drive completely undermines that and defeats the purpose.

Hibernation I don’t normally mess with, and same with swappiness.

Always, yes, but thankfully I have a very wide scope.

But if you’re setting the time to UTC and your time zone to UTC, your time is still accurate. I assumed that was what OP was talking about doing, not just “leave the time as my time but change the time zone.”

Unlocking instantly and permanently breaks Knox too which destroys any chance of resale without being shady or flat out lying about it. I learned that the hard way, thankfully, with a cheapo A50 I was using as a secondary device back in heavy Pokemon Go days. That was my first Samsung since my Nexus, and my last, ever.

Ahh! Ok, my bad - I don’t hear it often, so I got them mixed up - the other, that some capitalist opinion-piece writing bags of shit were complaining about a lot over the last few years is referred to as “time theft.” (Took some tricky search-fu to find it)

Oh I don’t either, just a perfectly fitting meme. Especially when you look at it from the angle of “replacing things that already work” and “rewriting everything in it.”

Yeah this reads weird… the wording sounds like “employees stealing from employers”, but the graph references things like “minimum-wage violations”, which implies “employers stealing from employees” (a form of labour value theft)…

Yet overtime violations and rest-break violations could be people not being paid for OT or given mandated breaks, or it could be people claiming OT they didn’t work, or taking longer breaks than agreed upon ?!

In this case I think “Data Is Confusing” may be more accurate than “Data Is Beautiful.”

They’re not “/24 addresses”, it’s a mask.

/32 references one specific host, it is a mask of all 1s.

/24 references 254 hosts, it is a mask of 75% 1s and 25% 0s.

Should probably be asked in an active BSD community if you want a real and well informed answer.

Conservative/right-wing views have absolutely nothing to do with it in my books.

This is a smaller community with seemingly slightly more accountability, or at a minimum, decency and respect for our fellow humans and internet citizens. The majority of the animals on reddit because behave like 10 year olds in a COD lobby - hiding behind internet anonymity to act like complete assholes, and be as rude and disrespectful as they possibly can, because they believe there will be no consequences.

When I see someone behaving like that, seemingly unable to carry on a civil conversation, I do not hesitate to suggest that they go back to Reddit if they’re going to behave like those people. We do NOT want this community to devolve to that level. It is not a serious suggestion that they return there - it’s more so an invitation to examine their behavior, and maybe take a step back, and look at this community overall vs. that community overall, and give some consideration to maybe behaving like a mature adult instead. Spelling it out that way when dealing with those kinds of people typically just encourages them to double down though, so it gets wrapped up in that little retort instead.

To me it’s unexpected as I wasn’t following this all that closely.

I was following closely - checking for updates weekly or more, while struggling to be so much as content with my P9FP and trying to decide whether to upgrade to a P10FP (marginal upgrades on paper, but they really help out in the weakest areas).

Still entirely unexpected to me, and even in my wildest hypotheticals, Motorola was not on my radar.

For some reason I think I thought this was about a boxer or something… I don’t keep up on much that isn’t IMAX 70mm. After hitting IMDB, I’m almost more interested in the original HBO documentary!

I’ll grab all three and see how many I can convince the mrs’ to watch with me, ty!! :-)

PS: I can’t believe they called that app Valetudo (I get it - Hygieia). Just…that word has a very different meaning in many folks brains

It’s the robot vs the dirt, a fight to the death, or at least unconsciousness or a hospital trip! 🤣

I feel like I remember hearing about an event or series called Valetudo in like, the middle east or something, back in the 90s around like, UFC 1-3 timeframe. Where like, Rickson did the majority of his fighting as far as I understood/remember. I didn’t know until today it was a catchall term! I remember my buddy telling me about how absolutely legendary Rickson was and how it was such a shame all we had in the UFC was Royce, lol. I think I only ever saw him fight once, in Pride I’d guess… likely against Sakuraba (but I’m guessing and scraping the memory banks hard here.)

Edit: AH, just looked it up, it was Takada … a judo expert iirc … yes, some of the cobwebs shaking loose now! And the “Vale Tudo” I’d heard about was a thing, but it wasn’t in the middle east, it was Japan it seems! Probably confusing it with something else that was in the middle east.

Fair, and same here! Here’s hoping we cross paths again :-)
