nmtui is the best, I just wish network manager played a little better with wireguard

One short story explains the other

I was crossing the road, looking both ways, when the egg

E   G   G

I was gonna ask why the reporter is wearing sunglasses indoors, but then I noticed the teeth

Is it not the 5 course dinner kicking in?

Me: "I must go now, my planet needs me."

Them: "Don't you live on Earth?"

Me: (already outside)

The lyrics of the rest of the song aren't that great

         Strapped in the chair of the city's gas chamber
         Why I'm here, I can't quite remember
    The Surgeon General says it's hazardous to breathe
               I'd have another cigarette
    But I can't see, tell me who you're gonna believe

            Take me down to the Paradise City
    Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty


  

So either the chorus is pure sarcasm, or his day to day to life is so unbearable that he genuinely wishes to go back to a time/place where the grass is green, and a time when he was still attracted to women

I stand throbbingly by my statement

Yandex is deptessingly good

Im an anything bird - by that I mean that caffeine dictates my schedule.

If I work UK timezones, then my last coffee is at 3pm and I'm in bed by 11:59pm and up at 8ish.

If I work US timezones, then my last coffee is at 8pm and I'm in bed by 4am and up at 12:01pm

Yeah, I might. Are you afraid of seeing grown men cry? Prick. I'm gonna enjoy slicing you next to garlic and frying the bejesus out of you

I have a high school friend who owns a paper mill. He was a rich kid who never did the work, and always took credit for others work.

He has an h-index of 90 and 200,000 citations. He is not a professor.

Yeah, run checkupdates in a timer, and then in your script invoke checkupdates -n

https://man.archlinux.org/man/checkupdates.8

    
-n, --nosync
Do not sync the temporary database, works   
best when the temporary database is   
updated regularly through some other   
means such as a cronjob or systemd timer.

  

go home Pam

Amazing that Karl Marx's long-lost hollywood brother said this

For (1), we started with the Maclaurin series 1/x to get us familiar with the idea of differential expansions, and then we moved to Taylor to derive expansions of some common functions like cos and sin:

cos(x) = 1 - x²/2! + x⁴/4! - ...

sin(x) = x - x³/3! + x⁵/5! - ....

We now start with the definition of e^x Taylor expansion, and proceed to do some substitutions:

e^x = 1 + x + x²/2! + x³/3! + .... + xⁿ/n!

We can then substitute in: x=iθ (remembering that i² = -1) to get

e^iθ = 1 + iθ - θ²/2! - iθ³/3! + θ⁴/4! + iθ⁵/5! + ... etc...

If we group by real and complex, we can arrange the above as:

e^iθ = (1 - θ²/2! + θ⁴/4! + ... ) + i(θ - θ³/3! + θ⁵/5! + ... )

You should now realise that the left part resembles the expansion of cos(θ), and the right part resembles sin(θ). That is:

e^iθ = cos(θ) + i sin(θ)

Finally, we substitute in θ = π

e^iπ = cos(π) + i sin(π)

And we know that cos(π) = -1, and that sin(π) = 0, meaning that we end up with

e^iπ = -1 + i 0

or

e^iπ + 1 = 0

The teacher got excited because it is literally one of the most beautiful mathematical statements you can get, that connects five universal identities under a single statement: 0, 1, e, i, and π -- and does so using 3 different operators (times, power, plus).

For (2), I'm still waiting as I think it's currently holding the world together by sheer mass alone

A delicacy in some parts, no doubt

Limp Biscuit means something else where I'm from

good video
