I’ve known many average folks with mountain/lake/beach property. They’re not wealthy, just their first home wasn’t in an expensive place, same as the “cabin”. I’ve been to “lake houses” that were just an old trailer home, or an inexpensive, minimalist construction.

The ones I know also rent out the cabin when they’re not using it to subsidize it.

But yea, this isn’t typical at all. The people I know are very much the exception.

Hahahaha, a home in Manhattan? Some of the most expensive real estate in the world at something like $1300 per square foot.

Typical New Yorker (city, that is). Many people there think they’re the center of the world, that NYC is the place to be and everywhere else wants to be NYC.

Yea, he’s way the fuck out of touch. I don’t know anyone with a “weekend home”.

I know people with vacation homes, but they bought those when they were older (50’s), and they’re usually small places say at a beach/lake, etc, that often gets rented out when they aren’t using it (as that’s how they pay for it).

Says right ony receipt the deliver fee is not for the driver. 1

Or they just don’t care so long as it gets them the convenience they want - because they don’t understand what it means.

Yea, no, I wouldn’t recommend searching for this unicorn.

Scheduled sex with someone who’s indifferent to it?

Do you want scheduled emotional closeness with someone who isn’t into it?

Why are you asking this question? It sounds more like a rant.

I’m sure you know moderation is neither instantaneous nor perfect. So that makes this a rant instead if a genuine question.

I have an ancient Drobo.

Believe it or not, it’s only sound is the fan, which I can’t hear even when it’s on.

SSD will still generate heat, so will need a fan.

iOS is meaningless. We have zero insight into what’s really going on, and it’s not a device that allows any control.

Apple lies and obfuscates as much as any other org does, and is majorly hypocritical about it.

Plus, it’s a lot easier to provide updates when you control all the hardware, and sunset perfectly good hardware by not allowing apps to continue to work.

Yea, a tiger… Yea

Who cares about looking stupid. Just done what you gotta do.

Hahahaha, dammit you made me snort

Excel tables.

No Linux/OSS app can do this (and will likely never). Open Office devs have outright declared they won’t.

Or the automated process that export/import data via excel.

Let’s see you rebuild all those things, without man hours or errors. Costly errors.

Whenever someone gets on a “just switch” campaign (whether it’s something like Linux or Metric), I know they’ve never had to work on a migration project and seen the challenges, difficulties, and risk.

I use Linux for servers, but I’ll be damned if I’m gonna spend time converting my workstation - there’s zero value in it for me when I have decades of tools and process. The value proposition just isn’t there.

Don’t go taking down a fence until you fully understand what it’s for.

I was about to post the same. It was a funny episode.

I think the nerd/tinker space today is stuff like self-hosting, local storage, return from cloud.

Apps that don’t phone home to someone else’s server, keeping your contacts, calendar, shopping list, etc on your own stuff.

We could, if someone cared to put in the effort to make that happen.

Be that “someone” .

Graphene will run on all Pixels I think. They don’t make a distinction on their website.

For other phones, Lineage is a great alternative OS if a phone is bootloader unlockable and there’s a build for it.

Come on baby…

Light. My. Fire.

Haha, fine, I’ll give you that one

Because bonnet means “any of various hoods, covers, or protective devices”.

The etymology of which:

bonnet(n.) early 15c., “kind of cap or bonnet worn by men and women,” from Old French bonet, short for chapel de bonet, a cap made from bonet “kind of cloth used as a headdress” (12c., Modern French bonnet), from Medieval Latin bonitum, bonetum “material for hats,” which is perhaps a shortening of Late Latin abonnis “a kind of cap” (7c.), which is perhaps from a Germanic source. (If that is correct, a chapel de bonet would be etymologically a “cap made of cap”).

So bonnet as a cover for the forward part of a vehicle originated with bonnet as a cover for one’s head.

I’ve never heard of a fruck

And trunk originates with the trunk that was literally strapped to the back of a carriage to transport your stuff.
