As a former bar back and then bartender at a restaurant, maybe cocaine. We did a lot of that with the kitchen staff after hours.

I have no idea but I like to imagine hundreds of editors rushing out every time there’s a prominent death to be the first to change it.

I can’t believe the devil is so unforgiving

I’ve been using free software (both free as in freedom and free as in beer) off and on since I discovered slackware in the 90s, but I’ll be the first to admit I’m not plugged into the scene. I’m not plugged into most scenes except possibly rock and Americana music, and I know all the gross shit that happened there. Rock music especially. And that may actually be why I tend to avoid getting plugged in.

But I went through the whole report. I’m sad to find out someone with such lofty ideals in one area is so scummy. A lot of that just sounds like typical neckbeard idiocy dialed up to maximum. And if he were just any neckbeard or incel on the street everyone could just dismiss him. But he’s a prominent figure that represents a movement spouting gross and harmful shit. It has nothing to do with the validity of the movement, nor does it remove the value of free software, but him being a keynote speaker everywhere and being so involved makes things feel dirty.

I don’t know. I didn’t take my medication today so I’m scattered. I just hate when people doing important or influential work are gross people, especially if they have harmful attitudes towards minors.

I had no idea. With all of the things I have to follow on a daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly basis some things are just going to fall through the cracks. “Minor public figure holds reprehensible views” won’t generally hit my radar. “Major public figure did something reprehensible” may not hit my radar depending on how busy or drunk I am in a given week, which will leave me wondering why people hate them years later.

I’m not saying this as a criticism of you. You brought it up which is super valuable. There’s just so much shit to keep up with that I always appreciate context because I have other things going on and rarely have any idea what reprehensible thing a particular person has said or done.

Wouldn’t it just be advertising access to your self hosted drive full of feet pics on Lemmy or Mastodon?

Rusty Shackleford is just the name he uses to order Pizza with.

Six people posted tongue in cheek stuff mocking what the conservatives did when Biden wasn’t constantly in the news and suddenly news articles are saying the whole Internet was convinced.

Hey, that’s fair! Not everything speaks to everyone. World would be terribly boring if it did.

With the exception of the words “somewhat overrated”, I agree with this 100%. I have probably ~1000 hours in bg3 and just shy of 100 in expedition 33.

I wish I could play Expedition 33 for the first time again. It’s amazing. And it is very much a work of art.

With BG3 I can play it for the first time again by making different choices, adding mods, and choosing different classes. It’s a very fun video game with a lot of choices.

I’d highly recommend both. If someone is searching to fill between 40 and 100 hours (I like side quests, ok?) then Expedition 33 is absolutely amazing. If someone were looking to spend a couple of years before they have the money for another game then I can absolutely recommend BG3.

I didn’t even know these sorts of mini racks existed. now I’m going to have to get one for all my half sized preamps if they’ll fit. That would solve like half the problems with my studio room and may help bring back some of my spark for making music.

I have no recs. Just want to say I’m so excited to see this. I can probably build an audio patch panel.

To me a love note is so much better than trying to recapture the magic of the original. I still have the original and can go watch it right now. It’s one of the few things I have on DVD.

Society has changed in a lot of ways since the 80s so the commentary should change. The fact that the trailers make it look like it’s adding healthcare to the mix of (and possibly more prominently than) critiques of corruption and pollution makes me excited for this.

All great options. I’ll throw in two here. Cocaine and Able by Amigo the Devil and Broken Window Serenade by Whiskey Myers.

I wasn’t clear. Part of the reason no one remembers Cracker Barrel is that the food is pretty bleh. A few things are incredibly bad. Anything that is kind of ok is outshined by waffle house.

But yeah, being a server there has to suck.

Waffle House isn’t too bad. Even Anthony Bourdain enjoyed it. If I don’t get tacos when I’m up at 3am (we’ve got an amazing 24 hour taco stand about 10 minutes from me and the tacos are all $3 or less) I’ve been known to stop in and get my drunk ass scattered, smothered, covered, and chunked. It ain’t the best food in the world, but it definitely hits that little happy button in my brain.

Cracker barrel wishes they were waffle house.

That whole thing was so stupid. A bunch of folks hated it because they thought it was woke. A bunch more folks didn’t give the slightest shit but thought it was a terrible rebrand. Even more folks said “Wait, they’re still in business?”

It’s me.

One eight hundred, five five one, eight nine hundred. Diesel Driving Academy!

Years of drinking destroyed mine, and it’s all my fault. I would also try it.
