Top 10 reddit moment: worthless agreeing meme response to an unhelpful comment that doesn’t even answer the question asked.

Some hobbies have minimal levels of skill/knowledge/equipment to properly do them, and I’d argue that self hosting is one of them. You can say people are hostile to beginners, but I might say people are trying to save them from themselves by not just telling them how to slap shit together so they can put it on the Internet and get owned by Internet Background Radiation in a short period of time.

My personal opinion is that beginners are too over confident in their skills or expect setting things up is like setting up an online account, and expect everything to be ready for them to install in their preferred method, and get upset when people tell them they need to upskill to be able to accomplish their goal.

An example of this is a conversation I had with someone online about some docker distributed app, and people were trying to get the person to use docker like the install doc says instead of trying to figure out how to just install it directly into the OS, because that’s the way they’re used to doing stuff and they were determined they weren’t going to change now despite the software author’s supported path not including direct install. If the person was willing to learn docker (which is not very difficult if you can follow a tutorial and use compose files), they’d be able to quickly accomplish what they want while also opening more doors for them in the future.

So Wu Tang really is for the children!

Having grown up around a lot of fundies, I’m not even remotely surprised.

Like, the amount of fucked up shit I heard or had said to me as a kid by my very religious family, including being told at a young age that if I didn’t stop touching things at the grocery store, my grandfather was going to rip of the arm and beat me to death with the bloody stump.

Of all the times in my life, that was definitely more than one of them.

Also, this story was repeated as nauseum over my adolescent/teen years for fuckin yucks…

TIL “tend to” means “always”

Don’t mind me, just going around the “well made” gate that’s totally connected to a fence

Keep going an let’s make MAGA glue

You don’t see any state run bread lines do you?

You do, they’re called food pantry lines, and they tend to be run by churches in my experience

Delivery method is super critical though, so be careful

“It’s not slavery when we call it something else”

The funny thing is, I’m not completely sure if you’re referring to the game console or BDSM

Pence is the opposite of suspense

I was thinking Beethoven meets a reverse Home Alone, somehow the dog is the only one going to france.

How far down the line before you wouldn’t be able to pull the trigger? Everyone here assumes we’re at the start of the line, rather than just getting picked up midway through. Not sure where I’d be able to call that myself though…

Sometimes that’s the only way to get through the day when you have no control over the shit that’s on fire.

If a vagina isn’t a house, then explain how Pillow Pants the vagina troll lives in there!

The scrubby side is to catch the sperm, the smooth side is for comfort on the vaginal wall, duh.

With an image of the Stature of Shakira Law, I really doubt they’re being genuine

First one, then the other

Seconding a rec for Bazzite, but please don’t make people think that distros this are a silver bullet. I’ve been running Bazzite for months, and while my experience is MOSTLY issue free, I did have to spend quite a while trying to figure out why certain flatpack apps refused to run sometimes on boot. Still don’t know what I did to fix my issue, and it’s working reliably, so I’m not going to touch it…
