Cops suck at their job, and they hate it if you explain it to them.
I can't remember a single time in my 40-years-long life when a cop genuinely helped me in any way,
apart from writing a report (full of errors and spelling mistakes) that my insurance demanded.
And I really don't believe they "make the streets safer" either.

Ain't nobody got time for that crap!

In biology, the top one is called K-strategy and the bottom one R-strategy.
Both are valid strategies.

But generally, K is better suited for highly developed, intelligent, cooperative and social animals.
R is better suited for animals that live alone in a hostile environment full of predators.

There's a message about the modern job market in here somewhere I guess.

When you run OpenSUSE, you can feel it was made by Germans.
The installer is a beautiful example of German engineering.
The package manager is a perfect example of German over-engineering.
If you run it with KDE, you have 2 redundant GUI admin tools for every config in the system, and 4 for setting up printers.

You can easily tell them apart by cutting them with a knife: The false brown cap will show a stronger blue discoloration under ultraviolet light if the soil contains manganese at >20% bioavailable water content, and the temperature didn't drop below 12 degrees Celsius in the past month.

Do linux users have wives?

The word "free" does not refer to price; it refers to freedom.

  1. The freedom to use your wife as you wish, for any purpose.
  2. The freedom to study how your wife works, and change her so she works for you as you wish, instead of her controlling you.
  3. The freedom to redistribute your wife to your neighbor.
  4. The freedom to distribute your modified wife to others. By doing this you can give the whole community a chance to benefit from your changed wife.
