  • Why Saskatchewan calls a hooded sweatshirt a 'bunny hug'

    Jump

  • That's a loooong way down to get to:

    "Named after a dance."

    That being said, being named after a dance is just one theory. Truth is no one remembers anymore.

    Growing up in Saskatchewan, my brain almost naturally began to delineate a difference between hooded sweaters with a zipper (hoodie) and hooded sweaters without a zipper (bunny hug). It's a completely arbitrary naming convention that my brain decided to pull from its ass one day. But it stuck and I continue to use it.

  • Epstein conspirator Steve Bannon: “We‘re gonna have ICE surround the polls…We’ll never again allow an election to be stolen.”

    Jump

  • maybe stash a maga hat hidden somewhere, if you see ICE approaching to possibly arrest you and prevent you from voting, put the hat on.

    That's legitimately genius and hilarious at the same time.

  • Message to Epstein: "Thank you for a fun night... Your littlest girl was a little naughty."

  • I sense a new Samsung billboard.

  • New Mexico warns against consuming raw milk after newborn dies from listeria

    Jump

  • This is survival of the poorly educated, poorly resourced, poorly connected communities.

    Or this is the "find out" moment for a MAGA housewife who spent the last year cheering on RFK Junior and yellilng about the "woke agenda" of pasteurization.

    The point is, we don't know. But since RAW milk is both more expensive AND more inconvenient to obtain, I'm going to go with my theory over a poor mother.

  • PSU is 750. Heck, with the exception of the GPU it's the second most expensive part in the old girl. I upgraded it a few years back when I installed a more powerful fan for cooling.

    its been more than enough for this setup for the last few years since then. Which basically confirms my suspicion that the PSU has crapped the bed.

    Thanks for the assist.

  • DOJ Released Unredacted Nude Images in Epstein Files

    Jump

  • I don't disagree that they're incompetent. But in this particular case what they're doing isn't incompetent at all. Surely you've noticed that anything in there that has Trumps name next to it is all things that couldn't be corroborated. Or things that couldn't be followed up on for one reason it another.

    They took his name off from anything that was potentially investigated and proven, and left the "she says.." statements that have had no investigative follow-up so they can say "look how honest we are. Yes he's in there but none of it is actually provable"

    Its a greasy, and slimy and frankly pure evil scheme. But its not an incompetent one.

  • People espousing that unions don't work should have a look at police unions.

    Jump

  • The only issue with Unions is a corporate system that has spent decades on a campaign of misinformation and vilification.

    Never forget that its unions that gave you a five day work week, 8 hour days, and child labour laws.

    Nothing is given by a corporation out of the kindness of their heart. And nothing makes them more gleeful than listening to people repeat their anti-union screed.

  • France Just Created Its Own Open Source Alternative to Microsoft Teams and Zoom

  • I get that government use needs to be stringently tested for security, and so things take a little longer. But really, there are PLENTY of good FOSS products in existence that can be used as a base framework and a head-start to things like this.

    You don't have to re-invent the wheel when you could easily fork Jitsi-meet and harden it/secure it to your needs in the government.

    Jitsi is one of my top 5 FOSS projects that are basically already mature enough to be used in a professional setting

  • *Davenport

    Chesterfield actually. "Davenport" was a name brand of chesterfiled-style-sofa that became popular enough to become synonymous (Like Kleenex became synonymous with tissues, or Chapagne became synonymous with almost any bubbly wine)

  • Apple to Soon Take Up to 30% Cut From All Patreon Creators in iOS App

    Jump

  • What exactly does Apple think that they're brining to the equation in order to deserve that 30? Is it simply that they're hosting an app on their store, so therefore they're entitled to a cut?

    So if I write a novel, and get it published, Microsoft can say "We deserve 30% because you used our product to produce your product?

    I'm so fucking tired of corporations. It's well past guillotine-o-clock.

    Jump

  • They didn't ban weapons. They banned generals leading independent armies.

    Roman military was, at that time at least, privatised. The generals were the elites and the rich who would often pay for their own armies. When Caesar for example wanted to go campaigning in Gaul, he'd pay for a lot of the cost or of his own pocket. This resulted in armies that were generally more loyal to their general than to Rome.

    That could naturally be a problem, so to prevent a general from getting ideas, the law mandated that they would have to disband their armies before crossing into Italy proper (or at least leaving their army encamped outside the territory)

    That point was traditionally just before the army would cross the Rubicon river, hence the phrase "crossing the Rubicon" denoting a kind of "red line" or "point of no return".

    When Caesar made the decision to March on Rome and incite a civil war, his army "crossed the Rubicon".
