  • part of the weird is the shared AC system should be pumping fresh air. I mean it sounds like cold air is coming in a tube to all rooms from a central place.

    against cold air the solution is to put up some shirts. why aren’t you doing that?

    why do you believe the AC system is spreading covid? is covid an active threat right now in your area?

    I don’t have solution to the cats, maybe cat doors. but what will you do when winter comes and it will be cold outside?


  • I will be honest. some of OPs’ claims are hard to believe and weird.

    but the first 3 accounts I have seen in the comments writing bullshit, also being against OP, have already got more downvotes by me than upvotes according to my client, even though I use downvotes very sparingly. that’s telling something.

    yes, it’s likely someone is pouring time or money into making people hate each other in this place.


  • I prefer reading the release notes before updating, because if there was something I don’t like often I can’t just go back. other then that it would be better if past release notes would be readable in the app, so you can read it later.

    I think apps that show the release notes right on next launch just wanted to tick off a feature request the developer did not really find useful to put enough thought into it.







  • It’s a condescending tone, actually.

    something I can agree with finally.

    I’m sorry if you think typing a few paragraphs is some herculean effort. I know it’s painful to have to step away from TikTok for so many seconds

    no no, you misunderstand me. but lets start with your assumption. I don’t use tiktok, and I condemn (now this is correct use I believe) its users. its even blocked at the home network, by me, mainly for 3rd party tracking.

    its not the few paragraphs I was meaning. when I was looking at your comment history one of the latest comments was spanning the screen with several code examples (or were they commands? I don’t remember). and there were several similar length comments of yours posted within an hour.

    my point is not that “you talk a lot”. but whether your opinions are actually yours.

    I don’t think bitcoin provides much value in itself. Its basically an asset that is hard to make more of, like money or gold, which are also valuable because of this and that gold and specific currencies are relatively widely used.

    bitcoin’s supposed added value over money is private digital transactions across the globe in a private way, so that you can send money whoever you want, but it’s not practically private, and has so large operating costs (even just the transaction fee) that it’s not really better than bank transactions.

    so in short: its value is in its scarcity, and that you can speculate on it. the other possible advantages are not realized.

    since the value is in speculation, the dollar limit is when investors start selling enough of it so that others will do the same out of fear. which is who knows how much. but it’s probably more related to other factors than the dollar value.

    oh forgot the second part.

    first of all. .pub files are not microsoft owned keyfiles, but Microsoft Office Publisher documents. this is irrelevant now, but this is the only connection of microsoft with .pub files

    second of all, .pub files can also be OpenPGP public key files. do you use SSH? look into your ~/.ssh/ directory and you will see them there too. also in /etc/ssh/
