I just had to go and check because I got my 2 year subscription for ~$0.75 a month ($1 CAD) back in April. When I check their pricing page while not logged in, it shows me that I can save 50% on my first year and pay $6 monthly.

I think at this point I am more excited for, and have higher expectations of, Skywind.

Liz is one of my favourite poorly adjusted gremlins.

As a Jr. Full Stack, I'm in this picture and I don't like it.

This may be shit advice, but it may help.

I have a mint laptop and was also linux illiterate when I started. The way I did most of my learning was by googling (or duckduckgo-ing) "How do I [x] linux mint" and reading through stack overflow threads. If this doesn't return results, (almost) any solution for Debian or Ubuntu will work on Mint.

In general, I just assumed that if I thought the computer could do it, there would be a way to do it.

Thank you 7th Prime Minister of Canada, Sir Wilfrid Laurier.

I work with Java. And I'm definitely 'rose tinted glasses' because I also learned to code in Java. But I'm the opposite.

Do you use Java at home?

Fuck no, I want to stay sane.

Depending on the day, anywhere from 1 or 2 to several dozen

I've been using mine since 2011, and I will continue using it for many years. I have an alternate one that I use in some cases (things that need a little more professionalism attached), but for everything else, I will forever be LordPassionFruit.

I also have never tasted passion fruit.

I grew up Catholic, and (at least here, Catholicism is a really big place) it's not so much "he has money" as it is "he will bring stability."

The second commenter's "cash cow" comment is a bit of an outlier in my experience, because usually the highlights of dating a nerd are more akin to the second comment. They'll be an active father and attentive husband, and they're less likely to cheat (in their view). I've also heard things like this about D&D/Warhammer players, because they use their imagination alot (making them good at entertaining children) and the hobbies take a lot of focus (meaning they'll be willing and able to tackle problems that arise).

Older catholics are used to men whose only role in the family is "produce baby and produce money", so a lot of modern dating advice is in the guise of "make sure he's a good man before you marry him"

Maybe we should reanimate John MacDonald. Not to be a politician or give him any legitimate power (for obvious reasons), just give him a bat and make him a CN lobbyist.

Surely we'd get our rail soon.

I only noticed with my partner after they already told me they were a lefty, and we were working together one day and kept bumping each other.

Now we make sure that I sit on the right and they sit on the left.

'Subscribed - Scaled' to catch up, then 'Subscribed - New' to interact.

Forgot for a moment that 'thongs' could mean flip-flops/sandals. Wondered what dad was up to.

Mine's outside, but I also have the same version... who's out here cloning this cat?

Oh I've been trying. He's tech adverse in general, so the concept of open source software scares him because it means trusting others with regards to tech.

It also doesn't help that my dad still isn't filly convinced Linux isn't a virus/dangerous to my PC.

Another way to think about it is that there are companies that make money off of gambling. If they're making money off of it, then there's more money coming in than they're giving out. Meaning gambling is designed for the average player to lose money.

I both hate and love this, just imaginining it in modern writing.

Like, imagine you're reading a book that was written and published this year, and every double 's' follows the 'ſs' formatting. On one hand, it'd be hilarious. On the other, I would lose my mind trying to parse it for at least the first while.
