Ah, the secret Canadian operative we never suspected!
Upon further research, he seems hard-core apolitical.
I must have assumed he was like his character that he played on Boston Legal - who was clownishly right-wing.
Sorry about that improper assumption, and thanks for calling me out on it!
Or - here's a radical idea -
EAT A SECOND FUCKING WAFFLE
From what I've heard, Shatner is normally pretty right-wing about issues. Maybe fiscally, but not socially. Maybe I'm misremembering, or conflating his character on Boston Legal.
I guess it shows people can be complex.
"Firefox spends big money on features nobody wants".
How would they expect to collect this "money" thing? Across international borders and stuff?
Well - I don't think this is healthy or possible in 2 months.
Last year, I weighed in at 242 with high blood pressure and decided to get serious about weight loss. I started tracking my input and output to my system. I have a watch that measures approximately how much I work off. I use apps to track how much I'm taking in. The one factor that is missing is your BMR, your basal metabolic rate. This is how many calories you burn just by being alive. There are special scales or devices that can measure this for you. You will need this to figure out the math.
Food calories eaten - BMR - Exercise calories spent = Calorie deficit or excess
So, if you exercise more, or eat fewer calories, you'll lose weight.
So, a pound of fat is 3500 calories, so if you have a deficit of about 500 calories a day, that's about a pound of fat per week. If you have a deficit of 1000 calories a day - that's a lot! - then you might lose 2 pounds a week.
Using this formula, I managed to lose about 45+ pounds in 6 months. I worked up to a walk+jog and managed to cover about 3+ miles per day. Unfortunately, with the cold weather of winter, I've not been able to exercise much, so my weight loss stopped in December.
But what you're talking about is losing 5+ pounds per week. That would require a 2500 calorie deficit! That would be a super-heavy workout every day. And then eating very sensibly. Even so, there is danger that some of your weight loss would be muscle and bone loss in addition to fat.
tl;dr - Don't do this. Also, talk to a doctor.
Got it.
One murder is OK. Two is over the line.
But it's the low bar that the Republicans are still on the wrong side of.
What was it trained on, though?
Even if what it produces is "not technically child abuse", it was trained on how to make pretend child abuse, emulating what it has already seen. It uses previous child abuse as a guide to make stuff. It may also mix and match the real child abuse to make pretend child abuse. There might be real abused children in those images.
That's bad, right?
Read "On Tyranny" by Timothy Snyder. It's a must-read in today's environment.
I had been talking about getting fed up with my (circa 2021) Windows 10 machine for months, and I finally turned it into a Linux self-hosting machine! This has been my hobby over the last few weeks.
- Step 1: I bought an 8TB NAS drive to put into it.
- Step 2: Installed Kubuntu. Easy-peasy. Probably easier than Windows.
- Step 3: Installed Docker and Jellyfin. Super easy. Now I'm seeing my library inside my house.
-
- In the process of dumping all my old DVDs to my archive. Since I'm Gen-X, I have a horde of DVDs and Blurays (and CDs) just sitting around.
- Step 4: It's passed the wife test. "This is pretty wild without commercials."
- Step 5: I also installed NextCloud. OK, that just works, too!
- Step 6: I wanted NextCloud outside of my house to take notes and stuff. So, I set up a tunnel and I'm using CloudFlare Zero Trust and basically setting up whitelisted devices because I'm paranoid about someone doing something with my server.
- Step 7: Happily surprised that most of my Steam library still works. Installed Steam.
And, I'm happy. I'm surprised how easy it was! But I have some to-do items.
- I need to set up some sort of offsite backup that's automatic. Previous to this server I had been saving things to Koofr. I might up my plan with them to set up an automatic backup, but I'd very much be interested in what all of you do.
- I want something to stream music and make a Pandora replacement for my wife. Cloudflare doesn't like streaming, so I'd need some other solution than through my JellyFin/Cloudflare path.
- I'm just now discovering all the cool things that can be done with a self-hosted server. Baby steps, though! Suggestions on easy low-hanging fruit for next steps to install?
I wish I would have taken the leap years ago. My resistance came from not being able to play my games. However Linux has come so far in the last 2 years on that front. The only game I "miss" is League of Legends. But maybe that's a good thing.

How to tell if your "manifesto" is not well thought out is if it has open-ended questions.
Everyone else sees the problem with you answering the above question. If you answer it with the answer in your heart douchebag Alexander and Nicholas - it makes you sound like a racist. Just come out and say the racist part. We know you wanna.
