The difference between an IT person and a tech enthusiast

Yeah, I think I got it wrong, I thought about /usr, but it can be setup on a separate FS as well.

I believe that the only FS that absolutely need to be on the root partition are /etc and /var. The rest can be anywhere else with various degrees of tinkering. For /home to be moved, you should just need to edit your fstab (or your systemd mounts, depending on your distro).

Shame for Mickey 17, it’s pretty and original.

When we realise that glaciers are pretty much the one thing keeping our rivers flowing in the summer, it’ll probably be a tad late to do anything about it.

I really love all the 5+ years old articles about why systemd sucks.
It’s not perfect but it’s so much better than the plethora of different init methods Linux used to have. Also managing sysv init scripts sucked really bad.
It’s lightweight, most of it is optional, it’s declarative, it makes managing your systems much easier and it just works.

I didn’t even start talking about that, but yeah, at least to me, form is paramount over weight/complexity. At least until you have a strong enough foundation. Then you can take some liberty to strengthen in unusual moves.

Mobility and range of motion are also something to work on, it makes many things easier to do in your daily life.
But that’s something for another long post I guess !

Being sore doesn’t mean that muscle is being built, that’s a misconception, it’s actually muscle being damaged.

Soreness is micro-lesions in your muscles, and what builds them stronger is actually the rest following a workout. Because that’s when the body goes around to repair these lesions and builds stronger bonds within the muscle.

What builds muscle is resistance, nutrition and rest, the latter two being the most important.

You can’t build muscle if you don’t feed them right and give them time to recover.

So, killing yourself at the gym 3/4 days in a row, focusing on the same muscle group is actually really counterproductive.
Rotate your training focus with a split like push/pull/legs/core, or upper body/lower body/cardio, or whatever, as long as you enjoy it.

Give yourself time, eat right (as right as you can, don’t fall into the rice/chicken at every meal madness, balance is key), sleep a lot, take some rest days and deload weeks once in a while, and drink plenty of water.

And most importantly, be kind with yourself, it’s a marathon, not a sprint, you might struggle going to the gym some days, but showing up and doing less is better than not doing it at all.

Definitely a dead man switch, and several letters from me and my psychiatrist specifying that I’m not suicidal.

Affordable housing, better working conditions, less working hours, efficient healthcare and better pay. It’s not hard goddamn it.

The great equaliser!

For assisted suicide, I think you just need to make sure it’s the only option left to stop or prevent the suffering of a person (like an incurable disease, or debilitating conditions with no cure, etc.). You also need to make sure the choice is made with enlightened consent.

To allow someone to kill someone else is another level of complexity. The processes of gathering consent, and the reasons to proceed are extremely complex to make sure the decision is taken within the bounds of actual consent, especially if the person to be killed is not conscious or in a capacity to understand.

I guess it matches Aisha’s age in the Qur’an

Even a 1 or 2% per trade would bring massive amounts of money, not even trying to make it progressive or anything.

Given the number they supposedly have, even if only 1% of them actually work, that’s way more than enough to blow up the world.

I use both depending on the mood, but I noticed that baking soda neutralises the taste of tomato whereas sugar neutralises the acidic taste.

It’s probably both

Yes but not necessarily in the way you think. “Bad” posture is usually linked to weak muscles and lack of mobility/flexibility. If you strengthen/stretch your muscles and connective tissues, eventually it should help correct your posture.

I still don’t know if it was overly pretentious garbage or an enlightening allegory of the current state of the world. But watching it was definitely an experience. The cast is great, and I found it visually beautiful and interesting.

My Kindle never saw any WiFi connected to it. Everything goes through Calibre. I only read dead authors, so I don’t feel bad about pirating my books.
Sometimes I go buy used books at my local bookshops just because you should support your local bookshop.
