Living in the US, the last time I tried to buy “Brioche” bread (Sara Lee was the brand), it was just like eating a sandwich made with a dense shortbread.

This is how my friend in Florida got his bag full of airsoft guns past a school resource officer - he just told her the bag was full of guns. Apparently that works on Florida cops. 🤷‍♂️

It’s been pretty nice. I started slacking on my charging schedule a few months after I got it, so it’s degraded a little bit, but I can still make it through an 8-hour shift with Spotify going through my headset. The only thing motivating me to get something else is the locked down bootloader. I’d like to install something de-google-ified, but it’s straight up impossible on the US version of the S22.

Tbf, my Galaxy S22 did this a couple months ago with a system update. All my battery optimization exceptions were reset, so my alarm clock app wasn’t allowed to run in the background. Took me a week to figure out why my alarm wasn’t going off, because they also changed the location of those settings to an even more obscure menu in app permissions.

Someone remind me, what’s the first chapter in On Tyranny?

This is true. Apple’s excuse for it is that it’s used for FindMy and locking down a stolen device. So the Bluetooth and GPS and/or cellular radio still function with the device “off”.

This is honestly exactly what programming is: breaking down big problems into step by step simple problems. If you’ve never considered taking up programming before, I’d suggest you try it sometime and see where it takes you. It’s not hard to learn, it just takes time.

Gentoo with OpenRC is a good option imo

But what if you tell yourself they would despite all signs to the contrary?

That shit needs to be in a museum

As usual, the real villain was capitalism all along!

Man, that gorilla needs to work on his stance. He’s swinging like an schoolgirl.

This is the stance my wife and I are taking lately. I’m native too, so dammit, I was born in this beautiful land, and I’ll not let some fucking uneducated Christian rednecks force me to leave.

They’re being paid minimum wage. It’s not a great job.

Edit: And apparently they split their tips with the people working in the restaurant too, so I really feel like this is just exploitation.

The red dot means nothing to me. My brain has apparently learned to block it out nearly completely.

But what if the ghost messed up their dance move and now they think you’re just taunting them? Do you really want to risk pissing off the ghost?

Thought Slime goes by Mildred…

But they’re kind of self-aware, so I think it’s supposed to make them more off-putting.

At risk of looking dumb, what’s up with all the posts about the JFK assassination today?

Fun fact: Redbox is operated by Chicken Soup for the Soul. I almost got hired by them but they screwed me over after I had already resigned from my previous position.
