Reminiscent of an old Windows screensaver.

Interesting, it still shows as deleted for me. I wonder if it’s the client.

Fair enough, I can respect that.

Nowadays most Linux users seem to use ssh user@host. When I was getting started, that didn’t exist (or at least I was unaware of it) so I still frequently use the -l flag instead.

Nothing wrong with it, just that at least I mostly encounter its use by experienced users.

Brooklyn 99 was a wonderful show.

Old.

In my previous post, I said I was allergic to crabs. I don’t actually know if that’s true, because I’ve never eaten one; the claim is based on the fact that all three of my siblings are - violently so - so I never felt the need to test it. Perhaps that’s why I’ve never explored the moral implications.

That said, many times I’ve seen the claim that most animals that become seafood don’t have nervous systems supporting feeling pain the way that we do. If my food didn’t suffer, that would be a comfort to me; however, I’m not sure I believe that claim (and especially not the moral excuse it tries to provide).

I have been with friends who fish in catch-and-release environments. The only time I participated in one, I was a child and didn’t really know what it entailed beforehand (and, to my relief, didn’t catch anything). If fish truly aren’t sentient and can’t feel pain, then there’s no reason to object; but the idea of being spiked through the cheek, pulled from my atmosphere, suffocating for a while and then being returned - with no comprehension of what happened - is pretty horrifying.

I know it was a long post, but I was just pontificating because I don’t have an objectively defensible answer to your question, other than perhaps if I ate crabs ever I’d feel more qualms. Truth be told, I don’t often feel those qualms about beef or chicken or other land bound meat, I just have more opportunity to.

That Chinese place sounds very upsetting, if real. Hopefully you still enjoyed the linked video.

Also, I see your instance is separate from mine, but given the recent drama over veganism on my instance perhaps we should exercise caution in our conversation!

I call my toddler “Little Bean” as a term of endearment (well predating my knowledge of lemmy, let alone this trend). I just showed this picture to my wife and said it was a representation of our toddler when they’re an adult.

My wife rolled her eyes at me.

edit: Clarification.

You’re special to me.

You must wait to find out.

You, like me, must be old.

I also frequently pass -l to the ssh command.

I like this reference.

You’re allowed to add buttons? I thought modern phones only took them away.

I don’t remember watching Cars 2, but did the OBD port say anything about this?

Hopefully it doesn’t need to be said that representation is important in media and I don’t want to diminish anyone with a disability. This is just a joke.

This may or may not be an official definition, but in my retail experience a lemon anything is something that has been returned as defective three or more times.

Is that a thing that happens?

It’s fine if you are and fine if you aren’t, but this message kinda seems to contrast with your other posts in this thread.

In this very comment you said “having a weird hobby.” There’s nothing wrong with having a weird hobby, but it’s not normal.

None of my favorite people are “normal.” So long as their hobbies don’t cause harm to anyone, that’s fine.

My feelings toward furries are entirely neutral and I don’t support the claim that normality is a positive automatically.

That said, I disagree with your claim.
