Is there a shortage of dildos in Texas that they need such laws to stop hoarding?

That's what the constant cry wolf has lead to. The absurd has become real.

What's its heilage?

You can have mouse support with nano. Alt-m toggles it on or off.

All other things considered, that car just looks laughably shit. Idiots and their money...

Unlike modern reptiles, the T-rex was warm blooded, much like their close relatives birds, so their metabolic rate would be higher than, say, crocodiles, lizards, turtles, etc. Their food needs would be way higher than cold blooded reptiles, so a month without food would be more challenging. Might survive a month if it gorged itself beforehand, but quite likely not.

Seinfeld has this covered:

This thread could well have been written by an infinite amount of monkeys, too.

When I first joined Lemmy, I made the same mistake.

I'm now on lemm.ee, which is quite a tolerant instance with none of the bullshit... at least not yet. .sdf is also a good instance (I have that as a backup account).

A story that The Onion would be proud of. Could have been used as a form of self-advertising, too.

Would the foetuses of any of the damned by considered guilty? I presume there must have been a few pregnant women murdered by that malevolent deity in that fairy story of your ilk (if you're not on the wind-up, might I add).

Maybe dribbled the wrong way. Baby spit can be a projectile...

Depends on what wave of skinheads you're talking about. Skinheads emerged in the UK in working class urban communities in the late sixties. They were influenced by the early sixties mod scene, the Jamaican rude boy scene, a strong identity towards their working class roots that alienated them against the government and the then middle class hippie lifestyle. As they were in working class areas in urban Britain, they were also rubbing shoulders with working class black people who brought with them their West Indian music and dress style. Ska Music and reggae were big influences on the tastes of first wave skinheads. In this way, it's ironic that the second wave of skinheads in the late seventies and beyond got involved with fascist politics, considering its working class multicultural roots.

I'm not sure you can say that skinheads were an offshoot of punk, at least not the first wave of skinheads, as skinheads predate punk by nearly a decade. As I mentioned above, the first skinheads were interested in ska, reggae and other music from West Indian roots. They were more an offshoot of the early sixties mods, with added interest in black working class styles and music.

The second wave came around when punk was in the ascendency in the late seventies, and that is where Oi music is based on. But Oi and the second wave's interest in fascism is certainly not what skinheads were originally about. The birth of Oi was convenient in a way for the likes of the fascist National Front in the UK, who were heavily recruiting amongst the skinheads in the late seventies, as it pulled skinheads away from that "problematic" (for the fascists) black music. I mean, there'd be a conflict of interest if you're heavily influenced by black music and styles and yet want to "send the foreigners back where they came from". In many ways Oi was a betrayal of the skinhead scene.

I'm in the UK, and last year got a Lenovo ThinkPad laptop with Linux pre-installed that was cheaper than the Windows equivalent. I had a choice of RAM, SSD, display and OS. Ubuntu was the only choice of Linux, though.

The whole of The Ramones catalogue. Basically just one song split into parts.

You're right. Over the years, I've installed various kinds of Windows for relatives, and various Linux distros for myself and my wife. I've found, particularly in recent years, Linux is easier to install and more straightforward. Yeah, I'm an experienced user, so it's fairly easy for me and not intimidating, but I can't see a Linux installation as more difficult to install compared to Windows.

Most users, as you say, don't install an OS themselves, which applies to both Windows, Mac and Linux.

Thankfully the BBC aired the MASH episodes that were without the laughter track when I was watching it years (decades) ago. However, I've seen it more recently on one of the minor UK Freeview channels, and that came with laughter added... which eventually grates.

Should have made a detour to Pratt's Bottom.

Being from the UK, it took me a couple of seconds longer to get the meaning.

Yeah, he deserves a great autumn.
