  • Have you ever been rejected just because of your height?

  • I was once rejected for being too tall. I'm 1.96m (~6'5") and she was ~ 1.65m (~5'5"), said that she didn't like the thought of having to crane her neck to see my face.

  • Once in a Generation Person

  • There's always been very vocal criticisms of her from people who don't agree with her (for whatever reason they may have). But since she first started her activism, over a decade ago, no one I personally know has had a negative view of her. The people who don't like her are very vocal about it, but on the whole I've always assumed she's well liked.

    I've personally been a fan of hers since I found out about her, and every time I hear about her doing something I basically always go "hell yeah"

  • Let them eat starlink!

  • I did some digging and think I found the answer (more details in my comment here). The pricing in the screenshot is for business customers, not residential users.

  • Let them eat starlink!

  • I think I found the answer. When I checked Starlink's site, those prices plans match up with the personal plans, but it appears that the user in the screenshot has a business plan.

    Screenshots should be the Business Local Priority & Global Priority pricing respectively. My prices might be different than the original screenshot (I'm in Canada and I'm not sure how they localize pricing), but the data amounts seems to line up with the selections in the screenshot.

  • folks, you wouldn't believe it

  • I do not like that graph turning back on itself at the end. It implies some cursed time travel shit that I am not prepared to comprehend the consequences of.

  • Permanently Deleted

  • Still mad that they killed the Guardian.

  • Map of the average homicide rate per year in 2013-2023 in Canada and the USA

  • PEI resident here. As of last year, we've got ~180k people living here.

  • Shor(ule)k

  • Fun fact! Sharks have gills for breathing and nostrils for smelling, unlike us who have a mouth for breathing and nostrils for both!

  • Caught a dragon, now what?

  • "New problems" made me laugh and startle my cat. Thank you.

  • Please Advise! How Did Poilievre Fall Out of His Seat?

  • The last time Maxime Bernier won his seat was 2015, the last time he ran as a Conservative.

  • I recently got a fancy wireless Steelseries headset, and since I'm probably going to switch to Linux in the future I'm a bit worried about the continued functionality of it in a non-Windows setting.

  • I literally got the Acrtic Nova 7 a month ago, and I daily drive OpenSUSE. There were no issues getting it set up for normal use, but Sonar doesn't have a Linux version and as far as I could find there are no instructions to get it working so all of those creature comforts will not work.

    One thing to note is that if you connect to Windows via Bluetooth and not the dongle, make sure to unpair the headset before wiping Windows. I ran into this because I had it connected to my old phone and had to unpair it to connect it to my new one (the headset will not pair to a new device unless intentionally unpaired from the old one)

  • Permanently Deleted

  • I used sheets because it was portable and flexible, but now I'd almost always just use a db instead.

    My main use for excel now is "I need to send data to someone who isn't a programmer" and doing json > CSV conversions to see if my 3000 rows of data from a 3rd party have all the necessary bits.

  • Permanently Deleted

  • I really enjoyed spreadsheets before becoming a programmer (I still enjoy them, I just spend less time on them) and basically self taught over the years using Google Sheets.

    There are several really useful functions on sheets that simply do not exist in Excel, and there are others that work almost the same but not quite. Having to use Excel drives me insane sometimes because of how clunky it feels.

    By contrast, using LibreCalc feels kinda how you'd expect an open source Google Sheets to feel? It's slightly clunkier, but it gets the job done and generally feels better to use than Excel

  • Supply Chain Vulnerabilities found and fixed in Fedora's Pagure and openSUSE's Open Build Service

  • Perfect. Thank you for taking the time to respond

  • Just had a fun experience

  • My script is basically just the following in a .sh file:

    sudo apt update -y && sudo apt upgrade -y

    I think there's an autoremove statement as well, but I can't remember exactly off the top of my head.

    What broke it was entirely my fault, not the script. While I'm not entirely sure what had occurred, it's definitely related to me turning off the computer in the middle of what I'm going to call "post processing" where everything is put in place.

    My best guess is that there were mismatched files from different versions that were causing some kind of error. Because I was able to navigate the file system and actually use gnome-terminal once I got there, I'm starting to think I broke something in Cinnamon rather than the kernel. The consequences were that the "taskbar" was gone, I couldn't access the "start menu", my windows couldn't be resized, and no keyboard shortcuts worked.

  • Supply Chain Vulnerabilities found and fixed in Fedora's Pagure and openSUSE's Open Build Service

  • I've tried reading through the article, but unfortunately, I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed. I use openSUSE, how does this affect me, and what do I need to do/what can I do about this?

    Just had a fun experience

  • Millennials are watching monthly student loan payments skyrocket from $500 to $5000 under Trump: This will ‘crash the economy’

  • My partner was eligible for ~$750 per month repayments under a Biden era plan that Trump scrapped. They now have to pay ~$4300 per month. The headline isn't far off.
