Damn me neither

This is the same fucking thing. It is simultaneously 12:25am MDT and 6:25am GMT where I live. If you ask my computer what time it is, it knows it is 06:25:00-06:00.

Two sides of the same coin buddy.

What you’re describing is LITERALLY the system we have. UTC is a global, coordinated time that tracks solar time to a precision of less than a second. As far as my computer is concerned, my time is UTC (technically GMT, but they both refer to the same time) minus 6 hours. We all could choose to say, “hey, wanna meet for dinner at 3AM?” and have that be a normal thing to say in my area, and an odd thing to say odd in Europe… but nobody wants that.

How stoned are you right now

I’m imagining something more fluid, where the time it is depends on exactly where you’re standing and the position of the sun in relation to it. You’d need to factor the direction you’re traveling as well as the distance whenever you went anywhere. We’d have a lot more intimate relationship with our current celestial situation.

I think they’re proposing personal time zones, where every individual’s clock shows their precise solar time, and nobody ever manages to be on time to work ever again.

You are right, of course. There are things we can’t condone. But you realize that by saying it you sound exactly like the “all lives matter” response to BLM: technically correct, but oblivious to the context in which the original statement arises. When we say Palestinian lives matter, we aren’t saying Israeli lives don’t. We’re saying that you have forgotten that Palestinian lives even matter at all.

I just tried making sugar cookies, adding black sesame powder and replacing a portion of the butter with sesame oil. These cookies slap.

Alcohol, R-rated movies, a driver’s license… Plenty of things aren’t suitable for children, so we don’t give them to children. Children shouldn’t be exposed to heterosexual erotica either. Do you want to ban that? Didn’t think so. How about, you know, take some personal responsibility as a parent for what your child should or should not see?

I dunno, probably very few. I wrote it myself in a week. From a quick glance, Newsboat does not support “open in browser” outside of Linux, and is unconfirmed to even run on Windows. We do. Mocassin’s interface also seems to be better suited to large screens and at-a-glance reading. Other than that they are years ahead.

I love RSS too, but gradually drifted away from it over the years. After the Reddit emigration I started getting back into it, and just published a super basic TUI feed reader if anyone is interested.

It’s called moccasin

The College Board should award DOUBLE college credit for taking this class to account for the missing high school credit.

Often used internally in software development to denote things like test files. feature.js might be your code, and feature.test.js would contain tests for that code which your testing framework would run automatically based on the filename.

Excellent art/world and pretty compelling story. Almost everything from Image Comics is really top quality. Recently read ODY-C and working my way through the Low series. Can’t recommend enough.

This is how I got caught for throwing a house party in high school. Cleaned the kitchen floor with pledge, left a slippy spot and my dad slipped and fell on it the moment they got home.

By that logic, thieves are virtuous and valued by society. In reality, the wealthy are creating value for themselves and their peers, and we operate on a system more like $1 = 1 vote, rather than 1 person = 1 vote. This system is usually called a plutocracy.

Incredible. But what actually did happen to cause the wealth gap to suddenly and rapidly start to widen?
