You talk like it’s a done deal and recent talks about a referendum to revisit never existed.

do you want a cookie?

[insert obama awarding obama meme here]

I mean the UK won’t return Gilbraltar to Spain who were in the EU with them they won’t obviously return the falklands.

I’d like to see the UK also defending the “vote of the people” if Ireland voted to leave the UK

the fucking gall of calling massa centrist. shit-tier journalism.

we have problems with governments over printing. this shit has happened again and again for decades and it won’t stop.

disney isn’t the only one funding movies.

your regular $15m arty pantsy black and white movie isn’t paid for the mouse.

there isn’t a finite amount of film, why not let people who enjoy superhero movies watch superhero movies? why are these fucking directors compelled to curate what the industry produces? I’m guessing he got his budget rejected and blamed action flicks.

this is not audio specific but just an FYI, reinstalling does nothing on an updated system unless the program files were corrupted somehow, which is not normal.

to really reinstall a program from scratch you have to use apt-get purge or apt purge to ensure that global configurations files are removed, and pay attention to the logs printed out because some files may not be removed.

then, you have to manually delete your user configuration files for those programs, or create a new user un your computer to test it out first to see if user config files are generating any troubles.

just test it out.

some setups will work fine with wayland and some will work better with xorg.

there are of course ways solve those issues, but it’s easier to test both and use the one that works best for you.

wayland is the future, but the present is whatever works best for you.

dd is good if the destination disk is equal or bigger, unless you are brave enough to shrink the source partition.

if you are moving to a smaller disk for whatever reason (hdd to sdd) then you need to fallback to a different method, which takes us back to cp/rsync.

why not? sudo cp -ax foots the bill.

I assume people prefer rsync because you may need to run it twice, but unless you tick all the boxes rsync won’t copy capabilities (see getcap /usr/bin/rsh)

sudo cp -ax is short and sweet and does everything right.

it’s not the recommended way but it’s how I’ve been doing.

you format the new drives and just cp -a -x from the running os to the destination, update the destination fstab, then treat the new drives as an os with a broken boot and continue from there.

So that they don’t have to work until 67.

I mean if it were for the government they would put old people in an island and nuke it from time to time.

Enjoying the fruits of your labor? How dare you.

It’s also true that population is living longer and younger generations are not having kids. I mean there’s a little trick most don’t know is that those contributions in the form of taxes that you made all your life towards retirement, most of it gets spent immediately by the government. So if younger generations don’t have kids to keep the ponzi running the whole thing falls apart, and one of the symptoms is this, the need to raise retirement age.
