  • An animation from Obarski / Kiszkiloszki: https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=1767596029979438

    They cite their reference material as: Chroniques de Jehan Froissart (Froissart's Chronicles), Bruges ca. 1470-1475, Bibliothèque nationale de France: http://gallica.bnf.fr/ark:/12148/btv1b84386043/f167.item

    They have a longer animation, with the one above included, here: https://www.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=1663615227058317&id=1663615227058317

    Non-Facebook links to both: https//files.catbox.moe/pjfava.mp4 https//files.catbox.moe/o7qul7.mp4

    Edited to fix Facebook link and added non-Facebook links.

    I took an odd journey to get to this source. The actual graphic posted here is rotated and some of its colors were changed. The source for the visualization is this reddit post which links to the WSJ article. According to comments on the reddit post, the visualization pulled from charts from the second archive link, but I can’t find them in the non-paywalled WSJ article (and I can’t access the original article since I’m not subscribed to the WSJ).

  • Origin of “long pig”, copied from this Reddit comment:

    I think you might be right. In A St. Johnston's Camping among Cannibals (which the OED quotes in its etymology of the term), he describes how:

    The expression "long pig" is not a joke, nor a phrase invented by Europeans, but one frequently used by the Fijians, who looked upon a corpse as ordinary butcher's meat, and call a human body puaka balava, " long pig," in contradistinction to puaka dina, or " real pig."

    Which makes it sound like they were just distinguishing between the length of pigs and people.

  • I switched from Windows to EndeavourOS a few months ago and haven’t had any issues on my personal computer, it’s amazing.

    I also have EndeavourOS as a VM on my work laptop and I somehow managed to break systemd-boot when trying to do a system update though. The system update died halfway through and I defaulted to the classic solution of rebooting, which definitely made things worse because my boot partition in the VM broke. The great thing about Linux, and especially Arch, is the tools and knowledge readily available to fix things and everything was working again (with no data loss) in under 15 minutes. I’ve dealt with similar problems on Windows and either had to accept data loss or deal with significant headaches trying to resolve what should be a simple issue because the operating system refuses to provide basic information.

  • YouTube link to the video: https://youtu.be/Yr8oJWS9sJo

    I skimmed through it and it’s as stupid as you’d expect. The person in the video pretends to connect wires together, plugs a USB cable into a phone, then downloads an app to prove the increased internet speed. Comments are disabled and generic music plays over the video instead of any commentary.

  • The original scene: https://www.tiktok.com/@tm.jy/video/7246655883751558426 (I could only find a TikTok link unfortunately).

    For those who don’t want to click through, Tom is hit on the head by a woman (an actual racist caricature named Mammy Two Shoes) and starts to think he’s a mouse. He grows buck teeth (like a mouse or rat), starts eating cheese, and attempts to sleep on Jerry’s bed (as seen in the meme).

    It’s important to recognize racist stereotypes, especially with how prevalent they were in old cartoons, but it’s also important to avoid jumping to conclusions and calling out problems that aren’t there.

  • Even if some of the information is outdated, although I believe it’s all still valid, the main points / TL;DR are absolutely relevant. It’s unlikely that the main bureaus will change, and although the exact steps for freezing may change over time, the emphasis on freezing is important.
