How tragic that man can never realize how beautiful life is until he is face to face with death.

ikiru,

You’re selling my nudes?!

ikiru,

Damn, what a waste of precious Chartreuse.

ikiru,

I’m not sure why you would assume I’m American. I mean, you happen to be right in this case, but I’m still not sure why you’d assume that.

ikiru,

As someone with dogs, I envy this so fucking much.

ikiru,

I use Translate You on Graphene. Works great!

This is going to be really atypical: smoke cigars.

I never really smoked cigarettes so I never had an addiction with them. But I do like cigars. I smoke them occasionally, as do most people with few exceptions. I’ve heard, though, from some former cigarette smokers that switching to cigars helped them mostly painlessly stop their addiction to constantly smoking cigarettes by instead just having an occasional, even maybe weekly, cigar. Cigars may be more intense but also don’t have all the chemicals and crap that some cigarettes have, and cigars even intentionally remove some of the chemicals that cigarettes may add, like ammonia.

ikiru,

Try it, man.

If you need any recommendations, please ask!

ikiru,

There you go! Good shit, man.

Glad it worked out for you.

Zapatista Rebel Autonomous Municipalities (MAREZ) and the Good Government Juntas have been abolished (enlacezapatista.ezln.org.mx)

FIRST. – A few months ago, after a long and profound critical and self-critical analysis, and after consulting all the Zapatista towns, it was decided to disappear the Zapatista Rebel Autonomous Municipalities (MAREZ) and the Good Government Juntas....

ikiru,

Damn, that’s disappointing.

Wish them the best.

ikiru,

GTA 4 was still solid, in my opinion. It’s a way better game than 5.

I’m looking forward to 6. I’m hoping 5 was a minor blip sandwiched between great games, like GTA 2. I never play online but I hope this game is truly on par with Vice City in quality.

ikiru,

I can see that, too. It is smaller but I liked the return to Liberty City but in a new and improved engine. It was fun and had the kind of classy setting I liked from driving around at night in GTA 3 to classical music.

GTA 5 really disappointed me because that was the actual spiritual sequel to San Andreas. 5 had one large city but the rest was rural areas and small rundown towns. It made it feel way smaller than San Andreas’ three cities to me. I still prefer San Andreas to 5.

I made it to Linux! What is your must-have FOSS or Free Software for linux?

Thank you so much, comrades! I am feeling pretty comfortable with linux mint, and now would like some suggestions for some absolutely necessary FOSS or free license software for the OS. So far I have the standard, Firefox, ThunderBird, LibreOffice, yada yada. Thank you again to everyone on the linux comm! sankara-salute

ikiru,

I wish I was a teen with $200 to burn again.

I have no idea what you should buy in particular but just have fun, you won’t be a kid for long.

ikiru,

Cool, cool. Now do Israel.

ikiru,

The Good Guys™ strike again!

ikiru,

There’s a really tragic documentary where a similar thing happens to young kids from Central America so they do the trek up alone because they are essentially just believing Hollywood propaganda lies about the US.

Which Way Home. I really recommend it.

ikiru,

I’ve used VeraCrypt successfully to encrypt volumes/folders.

It’s worked great for me, although I recently started encountering issues accessing files but it seems the problem is with my external and not with the encryption method. Hopefully I can recover those files someday. Backup your backups and then backup again.

ikiru,

Me right now with my Sunday afternoon negroni.

Here’s to us, dog.

ikiru,

Black Manhattan is one of my favorites!

You just sub the vermouth for Amaro Averna, I recommend it if you haven’t tried it. I may just make that next in your honor.

ikiru,

Hmm. Interesting. I never heard of it before so I don’t have any Dubonnet at home but I’ll try it at a bar next time and see how it goes. Thanks!

ikiru,

Being Islamophobic is a Virtue now?

ikiru,

2023 sucks.

Be careful, your understanding of incognito mode in Firefox may be wrong and that could be costing you

All the incognito browser windows share the same “session” in Firefox. So say you open an Incognito window to browse Facebook or something, then you open another Incognito window, this new incognito window is linked to the previous incognito window, meaning you are logged into Facebook at that new Incognito window as well....

ikiru,

Do you know if this is available for Android’s Mull?

I’ve tried looking for the option but haven’t found it.

ikiru,

No worries! Thanks for getting back to me!

It would be pretty cool if Mull did this as well, surprised it doesn’t.

ikiru,

A brick.

No, I won’t explain.

ikiru,

Nope.

ikiru,

All I will say is that I wasn’t doing anything related to construction/masonry, and it was not intended nor used for anything violent or illegal. And it wasn’t a lucky charm nor meant for self-defense either.

But I carried my brick daily. Sometimes I would carry it in my hand if it got too heavy on my back though.

IDF reveals Hamas command posts in and beneath Gaza hospital (www.ynetnews.com)

The IDF revealed on Friday, what it described as intelligence showing a Hamas command center located under a the Shifa Hospital in Gaza City. In a briefing, Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari told members of the foreign press corps that there are areas in the hospitals that are used by Hamas to direct its military operations.

ikiru,

So, are they now backtracking and implying they did bomb the hospital but were justified because of underground tunnels?

ikiru,

No need to read it, I can read inbetween the lines.

ikiru,

You missed my fascetiousness.

But, no, I didn’t read it. I usually read articles but I was busy at the moment and even if I weren’t busy I probably wouldn’t waste my time reading some statement the IDF put out because it is far more likely to be lies and settler propaganda than truth.

Although this still strikes me as an alarmist, al-Qaeda-is-hiding-in-Moria exaggeration/lie to justify their indiscriminate bombing campaign now that more people are questioning their obvious lies about not having bombed that hospital.

ikiru,

The original Final Fantasy 7 soundtrack is still the best soundtrack to a game I’ve ever heard.

ikiru,

They’re Communities here!

ikiru,

Yup! No worries.

Welcome!

VLC for android alternatives?

Hi, hope I can ask here. I’ve been using vlc for android as my music player but it really struggles after 5k local songs surprisingly so I’m looking for an alternative. The main problem I have is that after switching to the user account that has my local media, vlc refreshes and clears my playlist and I’m at the point...

ikiru,

Have you tried Retro Music?

I like it and got it in an attempt to move on to something more aesthetically pleasing than VLC, but I just ended up going back to VLC.

ikiru,

I found this explanation way more hilarious than the meme itself.

ikiru,

I don’t understand why you’re rolling your eyes in the title. Are you annoyed by your own post?

Anyway, I always prefer to wake up naturally as opposed by an alarm. Best case scenario to wake up by myself and on-time.

ikiru,

First of all, what’s up with this title? I thought Zelensky fucking died.

But the media was recently critical of Nazis in Ukraine until the current invasion. That includes BBC, Reuters, Guardian, and Telegraph just to name a few. Now they all pretend like it’s fake news, Russian propaganda. Haha

And, as far as I know, Ukraine only started seeking NATO membership after the 2014 US-backed coup. (They first applied in 2008.) So, I don’t know if Ukraine, like the Scandinavian countries, didn’t actually have popular support to join NATO pre-2022 but it’d make sense if public opinion has now shifted.

ikiru,

For sure, I agree with you.

But I have to take back what I said, Ukraine started seeking NATO membership as early as 2008. Although it does seem that they started seeking NATO as a priority after Euromaidan.

My point was that it’s doubtful to say they exercised their right as a country to freely decide whether to join NATO, especially if there was no major popular demand for it at the time, I’m sure it’s just coincidental that they sought NATO as a priority after a US-backed coup.

ikiru,

Black Manhattan. One of my favorites and surprisingly not well known.

Never heard of Mitcher’s before. Interesting aging process. How do you like it compared to typical bourbon?

ikiru,

I just think the one-word demand to justify oneself is obnoxious.

ikiru,

I never doubted that Israel bombed that hospital, but this tells you everything you need to know.

ikiru,

I agree. This study aside, I think EV is still really, incredibly shitty for working class people who can’t afford it or for tenants who don’t have plugs at home and need to sit at some WholeFoods or whatever like idiots to charge up.

And I agree about mileage. If I had to drive across country, where there may not even be any charging stations available, I would not do it in an EV.

I’m still torn on whether I should even get a hybrid. I hear those batteries are like ~$10k to replace and that’s after paying more upfront.

ikiru,

God, I fucking wish I lived in Europe.

I loathe glitter.

ikiru,

Fuck France and their bed bugs anyway.
