Varg was one happy dude then…

The Apple II was a good computer but if I lived in that era I probably would have used a Commodore 64 and later the Amigas or a i386 IBM clone.

Seymour, who reportedly had a daily rate of $150 for his translation services, lasted less than a day on the job before he was replaced.

$150 in 1977 is roughly $800 today. I don’t think he charged enough for such an epic troll.

Burzum: I’m a joke to you?

“It’s not like drug addicts will stop taking drugs if I quit heroin.”

I saw this very post just a few moments ago. Holy shit, these guys can’t keep it in their pants.

Movies and shows that I have watched this year in no particular order and not all released this year:

The Beekeeper

Iron Claw

Say Nothing

Altered States

The Substance

Oppenheimer

Peaky Blinders (rewatch)

Kneecap

In The Name of the Father

The Batman

Lord of the Rings (rewatch)

The Departed (rewatch)

Deep Space Nine (haven’t finished)

The Devil’s Own

Sicario

Additionally, my wife has recently started watching Gossip Girl but I only catch glimpses of that show. Did anybody actually like that show when it came out?

True but I drew that comparison since they both donated to left wing parties in countries outside their native homeland. Soros is a prick but not for the reasons that the neo-Nazis would have you believe.

From the his Wikipedia:

More controversially, Feeney gave substantial personal donations to Sinn Féin, a left-wing Irish nationalist party that has been historically associated with the IRA.

He was a basically an Irish-American George Soros.

And it’s down Along the Falls Road, that’s where I long to be, Lying in the dark with a Provo company, A comrade on my left and another on me right And a clip of ammunition for my little Armalite.

Bravo! Couldn’t have said it better myself. Having been involved in bodybuilding and gym culture for 4 years now, there’s a lot of overlap between that and Nofap and other manosphere/right-wing nonsense; online that is. I almost fell down this rabbit hole myself.

Oh boy, it’s that time of year again. The NoFap team are no match for my peer-reviewed evidence.

You wouldn’t run a script to ensure the proper functioning of your lungs.

I was going to comment “where’s the body pillow?” but you beat to it. Touche.

Thank you! Bookmarking for future reference.

Same here. People erroneously associate these climate changing monstrosities with Republican-voting, rural America but I’ve seen these in my supposedly liberal city way too many times. The worse offenders are college frat boys with inflated egos wasting their tuition on lift kits and oversized chrome wheels. And you’re right about their usage. My dad once had two pickups: an F-150 King Ranch and a Nissan Frontier basic trim. You would think that, even with the luxury features, the F-150 would do the heavy work, right? Nope. The Frontier was always doing the dirty work while the King Ranch was my dad’s crown jewel (before he sold it).

As I mentioned on another thread, I’m trying to reduce my car dependency by walking and cycling more often but I do intend to buy “one more” car; preferably a 80s/90s Toyota pickup but a Land Cruiser 80 series is also in the cards.

If there’s one I’ve learned after being on the internet for 17 years, it’s this; you can throw an entire mountain of evidence at a conspiracy theorist and they STILL won’t believe you.

Looked into Kagi. Seems interesting. Personally, I use either Brave search or Searx. There’s was post over at Linux@lemmy.ml about open source alternatives to ChatGPT and I might look into those. But I definitely keep Kagi in mind. By the way, How good is Kagi for,um… “sailing the high seas”?
