I am always amazed by human creativity.
- Create a religion, & you will end with 200 competing offshoots in 10 years.
- Create a Linux distribution, & you will have 20 competing versions in 10 years.
- Discover something new & interesting in science today, & you will probably end up with hundreds of PhD thesis a few years later.
- Create a beautiful piece of art, and you will soon have hundreds of remixes, parodies, mashups, etc...
This is life itself. Things never stay static.

Or, as Americans are so fond of saying: "Yippie Kay Yay, Motherf*ck*rs!"
From I understand, uh... (checks notes) it is an expression to challenge one's opponents, a bit like "come on!".
But what do I know? ๐คทโ๏ธ
My previous post was said firmly tongue-in-cheek... ๐
Oh no, there is no need for such a dramatic scenario!
I often say this under my breath when getting out of a 4h meeting, having obliterated the rest of the incompetent nincompoops I have to work with... ๐
Today, I learned something thanks to #NetBSD !
So, this NetBSD Foundation post:
https://mastodon.sdf.org/@netbsd/112382798178078765
Led me to this article:
https://blog.netbsd.org/tnf/entry/x_org_on_netbsd_the
Which led me to the lock (1) utility:
And finally to this command:
tmux lockc
... which allows one to safely lock a tmux session. I really like it so far.
This is the kind of depth and nice little surprise you don't get with commercial OS. Every day, you can learn about small utilities. :netbsd:
Oh yeah. Google it is.
Size of the document: 1.5 pages.
Saved .docx document from Google Docs = 2.3MB
Reformatted the document under Libre Office, saved .docx = 8.3KB
Something is really wrong here... ๐ค
And if you needed any more motivation, here are some CW screenshots for ya!
Don't ask me, I have no idea... ๐คทโ๏ธ
Free Speech Extremist = Fascist Speech Exclusively.
Remember these guys?
Seriously, though, they just created a secondary instance called "fsebugoutzone.org" so they can continue spewing their hate all over the place.
Recommendation: everyone block and defederate fsebugoutzone.org ASAP.

Ruby, you mean? ๐
Nah, too much work if the Ruby version is fast enough! ๐
Ruby might be faster than you think:

In other words:
- First, check your ruby code for strangleholds and remove them.
- Then, use the Ruby JIT for an easy speed boost
- Finally, rewrite the whole thing if needed.

Interesting times ahead.
So, if Donald J Trump ever becomes President of the United States of America again, will the US Army uphold its oath to the US Constitution?
In other words, are we going to see a modern Praetorian Guard, ready to depose Presidents and intrude in political life? How about the Republican Party?
Vladimir Putin must be laughing hysterically in the Kremlin right now: between DJT and Brexit he has pulled off the biggest covert attacks on his enemies ever.
