I was the same way until it clicked. Took at least a good month on mine to feel decently comfortable, and now can effectively touch type. Never got to that point on a traditional layout. Ortholinear layouts rock, love my ergodox. Coincidentally, used Box Whites on the extra I built to use in the office at the start of the lockdowns when it was still close to two weeks. Really need to update that so its mapping matches my home board 😆

I like using this for making date sorting easy and so it's possible to find the video post later if it doesn't get removed.

-o '%(upload_date)s-%(title)s-%(id)s.%(ext)s'

If Privacy.com does service in the EU, you can use any name you want on the virtual credit cards you can mint with the service. Downside is the bank still gets details of the ultimate transaction vendor, since the transactions happen as debit transactions (at least on the free tier).

@kaia
I would guess more with how well preserved it is, if that's an original fossil and not a casting

@mian @kaia
That's my assessment, too. Still on balance, but that much less motion to get from the holster to an angle to hit the target.

@Dcgirl
Make sure you up the iron in your diet. My wife's favorite way to do so is with a steak

Or just better cooking. Even simple ground beef is great if cooked right. I've made this dish many times, and am doing so again tonight:

The version of the recipe I use calls for 1 cup of white rice if you tend to use that instead of brown rice like me, and I don't use scallions. Follow your rice packaging's directions for cooking that part.

(The Haio gochujang I get from my local H-mart doesn't have soy in it, fwiw)

@kaia
Late bloomers, obviously

We've reached a point where it looks like Woot shirts are now using AI art. Sword blade is too short, pommel of the hilt is misaligned, fingers are off, and there's some weird crap trailing off Aragorn's back.

@paula9 @kaia
Why would that matter? Cover songs aren't original either, but they're art just the same. Art is a creative endeavor that evokes an emotional response.

@paula9
Sounds like an emotional response to your art. At a minimum, you changed the medium, which still counts. Take the compliment 😉
@kaia

@paula9 @kaia
Why wouldn't it?

@mian @kaia
Nope, it's Elden Ring fan art. The woman on her knees is a variation on Rennala, Queen of the Full Moon.

@kaia
In Linux, probably parts of some command line tools that have existed for decades, like ping

Great video on the fall of Romain

Might also be listed as a USB condom

"Fascism should more appropriately be called Corporatism because it is a merger of state and corporate power."
- Mussolini

@freemo
I'll have to disagree with you, you're still describing a republic with your phrasing. I don't like dealing with poorly defined terms, broadening "democracy" to include republics and anything between the two. In the US, representatives are voted for, yet the core system is still a republic on paper.

Regardless, I'd argue the US has already slipped into corporatism, aka fascism, despite airs that voting still matters.
@volkris @Hyolobrika @realcaseyrollins

@volkris
Democracy is a crap system, which is why the the US constitution doesn't mention democracy a single time. It's a republic, meant to protect the rights of the smallest minority: the individual.

Fascism is simply corporatism, stated by Mussolini himself. We're already there in the US and have been for decades in my estimation, regardless of the party holding the reins.
