Support local bands
I played trumpet in a ska band in the 00s. This one time, in a small bar, things got a little rowdy and a guy ran into my trumpet while I was playing it. Hurt like a motherfucker. I spit out blood and it loosened a tooth. The other fans saw me spit out blood and started kicking the shit out of the guy on the ground. Then one dude bought me a beer to wash the blood down
Good times.
Support local bands.

Take your passkey and shove it where the sun don't shine
The amount of people in this thread that don't understand passkeys surprises me. This is Lemmy. Aren't we the technical Linux nerds of the Internet?

The Stop Wall Street Landlords Act has been introduced in Congress by Rep. Ro Khanna. The bill would raise taxes on the purchase of single family homes by private equity and corporations.
Raise taxes? Make it fucking illegal for a corporation to own a single family home.

Amazon keeps having to pull ‘deny, defend, depose’ merch from online shelves
Yet they continue to allow fake goods, as well as support scalpers (see nvidia cards).

Whales is whales
Good evening. The last scene was interesting from the point of view of a professional logician because it contained a number of logical fallacies; that is, invalid propositional constructions and syllogistic forms, of the type so often committed by my wife. 'All wood burns,' states Sir Bedevere. 'Therefore,' he concludes, 'all that burns is wood.' This is, of course, pure bullshit. Universal affirmatives can only be partially converted: all of Alma Cogan is dead, but only some of the class of dead people are Alma Cogan. 'Oh yes,' one would think. However, my wife does not understand this necessary limitation of the conversion of a proposition; consequently, she does not understand me, for how can a woman expect to appreciate a professor of logic, if the simplest cloth-eared syllogism causes her to flounder?
For example, given the premise, 'all fish live underwater' and 'all mackerel are fish', my wife will conclude, not that 'all mackerel live underwater', but that 'if she buys kippers it will not rain', or that 'trout live in trees', or even that 'I do not love her any more.' This she calls 'using her intuition'. I call it 'crap', and it gets me very irritated because it is not logical. 'There will be no supper tonight,' she will sometimes cry upon my return home. 'Why not?' I will ask. 'Because I have been screwing the milkman all day,' she will say, quite oblivious of the howling error she has made. 'But,' I will wearily point out, 'even given that the activities of screwing the milkman and getting supper are mutually exclusive, now that the screwing is over, surely then, supper may now, logically, be got.' 'You don't love me any more,' she will now often postulate. 'If you did, you would give me one now and again, so that I would not have to rely on that rancid Pakistani for my orgasms.' 'I will give you one after you have got me my supper,' I now usually scream, 'but not before'-- as you understand, making her bang contingent on the arrival of my supper. 'God, you turn me on when you're angry, you ancient brute!' she now mysteriously deduces, forcing her sweetly throbbing tongue down my throat. 'Fuck supper!' I now invariably conclude, throwing logic somewhat joyously to the four winds, and so we thrash about on our milk-stained floor, transported by animal passion, until we sink back, exhausted, onto the cartons of yogurt.
I'm afraid I seem to have strayed somewhat from my original brief. But in a nutshell: sex is more fun than logic. One cannot prove this, but it 'is' in the same sense that Mount Everest 'is', or that Alma Cogan 'isn't'.
Goodnight.

Can we name a more poorly implemented protocol? Probably. One used as much as Bluetooth? Probably not.

Trump’s alleged ‘sexual proclivities’ graphically detailed in new Epstein documents
Reply in thread
Well, it does start out with "containing details of late paedophile Jeffrey Epstein’s". At least there's that.

Better to give to their patreon if possible. Awesome authors like Shirlatoon have them. Because, quite frankly, fuck the publishers too.

Lemmy.ca update - Finances & New Server
I don't know enough about how Lemmy works. Can you have an active/passive cluster (physical or virtual) to assist in uptime for the instance?
