Almost everyone using Linux installed it. Almost no one using Windows installed it.

I don’t disagree at all, but it’s a shame that they might have to. We haven’t been shaming our friends enough for being Trump supporting fuckwits, guys.

As long as they’re naked

A million heartbeats is 10 days. A billion is 27 years

A couple thoughts…

It is talking about President, but counts years where those names appeared on the ballot as Vice President too.

It also ignores that a lot of other people have also been on the ballots over the years.

Also, some of this is natural. When a president has an 8 year run, the Vice President is a natural person to take a shot at the presidency, so it’s perfectly normal to have 12 years where the same person is on the ballot as VP then P. It’s natural for this to happen more than once in a row. Whether we’ve had this long of a streak or not, I don’t know, but I suspect we might have.

This showerthought covers 44 years. The Bushs and Clintons double dipping is 12 years worth of ballots, but the other 32 years were natural. Hilary lost when she tried to double dip so I would argue the 8 years of Dubya are really the only anomaly in actual presidencies as far as “dynasties” are concerned.

Look up Kipp Davis on YouTube and anyone who has appeared in his videos, including Dan Mclelean, Digital Hammurabi and Jennifer Bird

Hanina ben Dosa was a first century Jewish miracle worker from Galilee. He was one of many who supposedly did a lot of the same things as Jesus, miracle healings, casting out demons, made it rain, etc, but wasn’t an apocalyptic with a messianic complex.

Anyway… there was a snake in town that had bit and hurt people. When he heard of it he went to the snakes hole and put his foot over it. The snake bit him and the snake died. The people came up with the first Chuck Norris meme. “Woe to anyone who is bitten by the snake, but woe to the snake that bites Hanina ben Dosa.”

I can assure you that I have better things to do in life than sit at a computer making up origins of common phrases

Fun trivia… Pulling yourself up from your bootstraps is impossible and the phrase came from an 1800s physics textbook that asked why a person can’t pull themselves up that way.

It somehow got twisted to mean that it should be possible with hard work.

It was also a crazy in the US. They called it butt chugging. It was funny to hear politicians talk about how we needed to do something about butt chugging

I’ve heard it called God’s blind spot before but poophole loophole is a great phrase

I used nothing but Slack for about 15 years. Other distros gave me.problems, hell, I compiled Gentoo from source but was never even successful at installing some of the newbie distros like Ubuntu, but Slack was always simple and rock solid. I wasn’t the best at resolving dependencies, I’d just build and install anything it said I needed. I think I’ve had more than one version of Python or Perl installed at a time, but it never mattered. Every few years I’d wipe everything and reinstall.

Wonder if OP thinks “right side up” means the left side is down

I switched in the late 90s to attract women. I still think it’s going to work someday.
