Backup of a backup of an exile account I created to be anti-social in peace. Now my second residence on which I'm more social than usual.

So, uh, there are a bunch of papers that are of extremely low quality promoted by the press all the time, sure, but there is so much wrong with the so-called “Krefeld study” and beyond the paper itself BUT instead of other researchers criticizing it at least try to attempt to point out some individual flaws (like the insanely long list of sponsors and the clickbait title) they just went “it’s flawed and got a lot of methodological errors” in a single interview and nothing else.
@threia Keeping the limitations of meteorology and its underlying theoretical framework, the chaos theory, in mind, the weather for 2024 can be predicted to be sunny, cloudy, rainy (both liquid and frozen), snowy, windy and stormy conditions that may or may not include some lightning and thunder, with temperatures varying between “Bofrost” and “sauna” throughout the year. Expect waves of Sahara dust every now and then.

@spook Immutale Linux distributions that won’t let you mess with any of your system files and only allow distro-independent package formats such as flatpak and AppImage for user programs. https://www.zdnet.com/article/what-is-immutable-linux-heres-why-youd-run-an-immutable-linux-distro/

Some arguments in favor of immutale systems are funny, especially the one claiming that a read-only base will never break (as if the non-immutable but still hardly-tweakable Windows 11 with its automatic updates doesn’t constantly ship core-breaking updates like its predecessor).

Safety and security are immutable Linux's calling cards.

From my poor understanding of anything in life, this “immutable” bs is the exact opposite of how MS-DOS and most software written for it required full hardware access at all times. I don’t like both but the former sounds much worse than the latter and only because the MS-DOS era was defined by what. 16-bit graphics via Windows 3.1 and later landline-based internet provided by America Online at best.

I always thought my teeth were pretty bad and dentists and orthodontists loved to hate me for it because I’m an abnormal case within my region but this ad traumatized me and I’m somewhat glad no one has dared to re-upload it.
If my surgeon should complain about my weird bite tomorrow, I may remember him of this YouTube-exclusive ad produced by Extra gum celebrating people under the age of 30 with missing front teeth and completely bent gums MUCH worse than mine like it’s something someone should be proud of.
