On a first date I'm looking for common interests, and gauging how easy the conversation flows. Do we feel natural together? Does the time go too fast and do I not want it to end? I want to establish a connection on a first date and leave with us both wanting more.

I'm all seriousness, I was looking into this today, and stumbled upon this page. 9 Best Text Editors for the Linux Command Line obviously skip vim, neovim, and emacs. Hope it helps!

Then go for 2 ☺️ the extra bedroom can be split usage, maybe a spare bedroom for guests, a playroom for the cats, and a small home office. We have 3 cats and they definitely brighten the day. Wish you the best!

Ok forget meaning and happiness. Let's talk utilitarian. What living space would best fit what you need? If you don't need much, tuck most of that money in a relatively safe investment and buy whatever you could pay off the quickest. Life is long, you're going to need that money someday.

Keep your memories by recalling them frequently. Every time you remember something, you make a new copy in your brain. Recalling memories is like making a backup. I'm 45 and I still remember things from as early as 3. I remember the feeling of the orange shag carpet in the house I grew up on my toes. I remember going down a waterslide on my uncle's lap and my cousin teaching me how to ride a bike. I remember the feeling of bass in my stomach when the marching band practiced across the street. Keep recalling your memories.

Leave the pan in the oven and set it to self clean. When you take it out, that stuff will literally blow away leaving a shiny new pan. Nevermind that self clean costs more than a new pan. Your oven needs a cleaning anyway if your pan looks like that.

Everything is owned by someone. Al Jazeera leans left, and yes they're a state run media organization, but they're more factual than not according to ground news. Perhaps the reason Al Jazeera hasn't published the death toll is because they can't verify it and their journalistic integrity prevents them from echoing unverifiable rumors.

My '08 JK is still going strong. Just modern enough.

Yes, it's vanilla flavored.

This is awesome, thank you! Now I need to learn silicone mold making 🤔

 

I've taken to storing it for craft projects. Recently I had the kids fill ornaments with the poo. It was great fun!

I am considering moving away from Ubuntu, but I haven't tried other distributions for years. I started on Linux Mint Cinnamon back in 2012, but switched to Ubuntu when I built my current PC in 2020 because I wanted more up-to-date packages. Now I am faced with needing to replace my SSD which gives me reason enough to install a new distro. I have an AMD Ryzen 7 2700X with 32G of RAM and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060, so I would need something that plays nicely with nvidia. I routinely use libreoffice, digikam, gimp, virtualbox, bambu studio, sublime text, filezilla, thunderbird, minecraft, steam, Open WebUI and Stable Diffusion (Automatic1111). I liked Ubuntu because it was familiar, fairly easy to customize, and everything was kept fairly well up to date. I am not a big fan of snap, and I would prefer a more logical and unified package management system. I was wondering if you all had some recommendations for me. Thanks

 

And thus began the second dark age. In the 21st century, the election of Donald Trump triggered a chain of events that ceased scientific progress globally. Environmental stewardship gave way to rampant consumption and dirty industry. Women once again became subjugated to property and lost all human rights. Logic and reason was forgotten and replaced with conspiracy theories and superstition. Over the next few centuries tribalism and the decay of modern society played out against the backdrop of now unstoppable climate change, which was largely attributed to superstitious causes by small groups of devolved humans living in filth amongst the ruins of a once great civilization.

 
 

I just picked up some 16TB WD Red Pros for $219, and they're normally $289. Had to share with my fellow hoarders.

 

I have between 20-30 TB of data I want to keep a copy of in a firesafe. I do not want to use an online storage solution, I want to maintain my personal data at my home.

My current plan is to get (2) Mediasonic HFR2-SU3S2 PRORAID enclosures and (8) WD Red Pro NAS 16TB drives to fill them. The first would contain a full backup and be placed in the safe. The second would be attached to my machine and receive nightly backups. Periodically, I would rotate the enclosures, taking the one from the safe and swap it with the one connected to my machine.

Are there any problems with my plan that I am not thinking of? Are there better solutions?

Is anyone else keeping a rotating data backup in a safe? How is it working out for you?

 

I downloaded a model but the Homer had several model flaws and the sponge base didn't fit my sponges so I designed my own. I basically kept only the spout.

I started with a PNG of Homer disappearing into the bushes. I cleaned it up a lot in gimp, then used adobe's PNG to SVG converter, which I'll say works very well. Brought that into inkscape and cleaned it up even more. Separated him into colors, pulled them into tinkercad at different heights, then printed him with 4 color changes.
