HR's job is to protect the company from its employees.

What is the deal with fairy toast? Can Australia not get cinnamon?

Pat_Riot ,

Anybody wanna peanut?

Pat_Riot ,

They were at the time.

Behold the new Corporation of War!

The 1911 is a much better looking gun.

Pat_Riot ,

Right? Like, the flesh of many fruits is called exactly that and has been, basically, forever.

The meat of the problem is that we are allowing industries, now, to define our language to maximize their profits.

The very first person to try to take advantage over others should have been eaten by the rest of the group, immediately.

Pat_Riot ,

Well, their beer is piss, so they should just stop doing that.

Pat_Riot ,

That is a frequently asked question.

Pat_Riot ,

Why are you hanging out in Nazi spaces?

Pat_Riot ,

Someone is going to make so much money selling iron lungs when they roll out polio 2.0 in a couple of years.

Ooh, maybe we can have a run of drug resistant typhoid or whooping cough while we're at it.

Have we ever had a good ebola outbreak in the US?

Pat_Riot ,

I ain't mad. You came back with real information. I was just snarking and hyperbolizing about what we have coming to us for letting these men gain control.

Pat_Riot ,

In the US holidays are for capitalism selling its products. Often it is candy, liquor, cut flowers, or some combination, oh and decorations, cards, themed clothing...

Let it sink in that the US love to celebrate Cinco de Mayo. Specifically, white, conservative voting Americans love to celebrate Cinco de Mayo, a day that they will tell you is the Mexican 4th of July, as they get piss drunk on Corona light.

Or how we treat St. Paddy's here...

Pat_Riot ,

Nobody will even remember them in 20 years.

Pat_Riot ,

One guy from an organization that nobody has ever heard of has released a statement! A statement!

Fuck RFK, but let's be real here, the coke off a toilet seat thing is one of the less controversial and dangerous things to come out of Kennedy's mouth.

Pat_Riot ,

It's funny how nobody said that at all until one of you drooling .ml tankies oozed in here.

Yet another reason to hate on the worse DB in existence

Larry Ellison and his two friends and former co-workers, Bob Miner and Ed Oates, started a consultancy called Software Development Laboratories (SDL) in 1977, later Oracle Corporation. SDL developed the original version of the Oracle software. The name Oracle comes from the code-name of a Central Intelligence Agency-funded project Ellison had worked on while formerly employed by Ampex;[7] the CIA was Oracle's first customer, and allowed the company to use the code name for the new product.[8]

Blockchain isn't a Database, and the worst one is AS400.

Pat_Riot ,

Wendy's gave me the worst food poisoning I have ever had. Passed out, almost crashed my motorcycle, and shit on myself while projectile vomiting. Fuck Wendy's.

Pat_Riot ,

That guy needs a banjo!

Pat_Riot ,

Even one you like can cause a great deal of disappointment and regret.

Pat_Riot ,

You should not be trying to get children off.

Pat_Riot ,

It's got one of those tails that curls up and around to 'is back, I think.

Pat_Riot ,

The shark bites when it cums

Pat_Riot ,

They're talking to me. I use Mint. I've never opened the terminal. Just because some of us aren't savvy doesn't mean we aren't at least casually interested. You could totally be joking too, I guess.

Pat_Riot ,

Man, your attitude is why Linux is still so fringe. That purity test shit is a real turn off.

For a casual user like myself, all that matters is my computer boots, is navigable and runs programs that do what I need. Mint/Cinnamon does that. It does it with no fuss. And every time some great FOSS warrior comes along to tell me it's not Linux enough I like it even more. I'm not interested in distro hopping, at all. To be really honest, I'm not interested in my computer. I just use it.

Pat_Riot ,

"Actually ...

I still don't get why Mint with its legacy Cinnamon desktop is recommended to new Linux users."

Now, we're not fighting, but I need you to see what you did. This right here is just a milder version of what I had to sort through just to get started. I started using Mint before I came to Lemmy, and Reddit's Linux subs are just as helpful, forgiving and accepting as the community here. Long time users are snarky, snobby and honestly not very helpful. It's not just Arch users. It was like Muscle Beach, but digital. Just flexing, no help at all. Then a user suggested that Mint would be a painless transition and they were right. It worked on the first install and within an hour I had Thunderbird opening my email, Blender set back up just like I had it on my poor dead windows 10 desktop, had my slicer. I haven't argued with anything. I've never opened the terminal. That's why Noobs are often pointed to Mint. And I won't leave it without a mighty good reason. My computer gets used for some of my hobbies, but computers quit being a hobby for me nearly 30 years ago.

I'm here to help

Pat_Riot ,

Bluto, is that you?

Pat_Riot ,

Motorbike has been used interchangeably with motorcycle for most of their existence.

Pat_Riot ,

Obama was president when I first saw that name given to hotdogs.

Pat_Riot ,

I wanted to give you a reasonable answer. There isn't one. The only answer I found is super fucking stupid.

Pat_Riot ,

They're gonna look at it real close. Especially the male dancers. They'll pay particular attention to them.

Pat_Riot ,

Pffft, I wish. I doubt i have more than 3 pounds of cheese in my fridge.

Pat_Riot ,

Y'all got a Birmingham too. Guess we know where Alabama got its tendencies from.

Pat_Riot ,

Did you quit reading before you got to the punchline?

The F-35 Debate Is Really about How We Killed the Avro Arrow | The Walrus ( thewalrus.ca )

CANADA DOESN’T TALK about the Avro Arrow because it’s nostalgic. It talks about the Arrow because it’s unfinished business. Every time Ottawa finds itself boxed in on defence procurement, every time the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) tries to remind Canada who it thinks really owns North American air ...

Pat_Riot ,

What happened to Canada boycotting the US? The US cannot be trusted.

Pat_Riot ,

When Smells Like Teen Spirit came out there was already far harder shit. Nirvana was never heavy at all.

Pat_Riot ,

I remember listening to Nirvana's Smells Like Teen Spirit when out came out thinking this was the roughest rock could ever go.

☝️

Those were your exact words...

Pat_Riot ,

Slice thin, fry crispy

Pat_Riot ,

Fucking boomer ass comic. Hur dur, husband bad. Lemmy could be so much better than this.

Pat_Riot ,

Jefferson thought Muslims would like it here and thought it would be a good idea.

Pat_Riot ,

Lol, TST doing the Lord's work (I got jokes) yet again.

Pat_Riot ,

Things in real life take longer than ticktock blurbs. It took years to fuck it this bad. It can't be unfucked overnight.

A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, Blue is sitting in deep focus with a calculator, an abacus, and several sketchbooks and papers scattered all around him. Blue: Each hot dog packet has 10 of them, and the buns come in packages of 12, so in order to- Green appears on the scene, with a bun of some sort hanging out of his mouth, peering at Blue's notebooks. Green: What are you calculating? Blue looks up to Green with an unreadable expression on his face. Green looks back to him, unsure of the situation. Blue raises an eyebrow, looking at Green with confusion. Blue: ...Are you eating a plain, dry hot dog bun?

I have no good reason to dislike bullpups, since I've not shot one yet, but I really dislike bullpups.

Pat_Riot ,

Sincerely, slow clap. Most appropriate use of Uncle Ruckus. You win the fucking Internet today.

The second comment needs to stop. Its a thought terminating cliche and just pushes us further down the rabbit hole.

These are what I call defenders of the status quo. People are perfectly capable of coming to these conclusions on their own but commenters insist on leading the conversation there every time. Not only does it terminate thought, it assumes the worse. Its incredibly hard to overcome the disinformation campaigns against normal ...

Pat_Riot ,

There are exactly two reasons for being on social media, to post content and to make comments. If you don't like it, why don't you go away.
