I’m still importing flavored nic pouches from Sweden but one of my orders got seized by customs. Thankfully the vendor refunded me for it, but still a pain in the ass.

Adults like flavor, too.

Also, on the whole, isn’t nicotine consumption among kids on the downswing anyway? Take the wins where you have them. That has far more to do with making smoking un-cool (and millennials and X’er parents quitting in droves) than any sort of flavor ban.

And a lot of us quit (smoking, at least…we pivoted our addiction to one with less damning side effects) with…drumroll please…flavored vapes.

Whatever it is it’s probably h.264.

I don’t get it? Are you upset that business-oriented distros aren’t building for hardware that’s no longer being built?

Surprised Pikachu.

Their customers are businesses who are almost always running modern hardware. There’s no significant reason to expect them to compile i386 binaries in 2026, because no enterprise customer is using i386…largely because there’s no good reason to, when more capable processors that consume less power are more readily available.

Same thing for x86-64.

Nothing stopping you from compiling from source tho.

That’s great but my work uses Office and the PWAs suck ass.

Actually I’d call the Outlook PWA slightly better than the Windows desktop client. But that bar isn’t very high.

I built my older kid a gaming PC for his birthday. He just turned 10. It’s not great…I got him a new CPU (technically better than mine, 5600x3d) and mobo, and handed-down 32gb of 2400, nvme, SSD, and my 1660 Super…so certainly decent and capable, but not an antique, and not a power horse. Super mid.

For some reason, one of the first games he wanted to play was Portal. So, for reference, Portal came out well before he did, and I’m sure he only knows of it because of references in cartoons.

But my younger kid…he’s 7…he’s nobodies fool. He knew as soon as cake was promised that it’s not going to happen. He told me, essentially as soon as it was announced in the game…that the cake is a lie.

Serious proud dad moment. It’s like “The Cake is a Lie” was imbued into the very sperm that gestated into him.

Oh and second game older game wanted to play on his new PC was Skyrim.

I think sewing is a pretty important skill in a sailor isn’t it?

Don’t they need to repair sails?

Isn’t sewing just tying knows on a really small scale? Aren’t sailors good at knots?

Would have to be pirate radio. You think this fcc is gonna be handing out licenses to left-wing secular media?

Must go deeper.

Model fly brain out of Redstone. Play minecraft on that.

Wooden skewers.

Ya know, I’m not gay…but that face looks like it gives good head.

Sorry, next year…next digit is 5 so need to round up.

15 tabs? Those are rookie numbers. Unless you mean “before 8:07 Monday morning”.

Half of Americans think it’s a pro-USA song.

I think there’s an even simpler explanation: people with zero empathy over other people are more likely to fuck kids.

They don’t want to replace teachers.

They want to replace mandatory reporters.

Mostly the ones Born in the USA.

I hope the song 99 luftbaloons is included in their training data.

God that 5% is just such flagrant bait, too.

Yeah, that seems achievable…on the surface.

Except almost every presidential election of my lifetime was less than a 5% margin to begin with. With the exception of Reagan, every single one has been <10%.

That 5% is legit the most important part of the fucking election. And it’s a carrot to draw out “enlightened centrists” who can’t see past their own eyebrows.

If the greens get it, it’s essentially a “thanks for the assist!” from the Republicans, no matter what…because that margin is enough to enable them to win.

And the way this government is going, do you think they’d even see the money 4 years later?
