I've been slow working through an informal list of Movies I Really Should Have Seen By Now and last night I got to John Carpenter's The Thing.

I’m a feral desktop Linux user and TIL that /etc isn’t “etcetera” like a sensible person would think, it’s “et-cee” like I’m shopping for a charming handmade scarf, and honestly y’all can keep it.

@Aatube Not et-cee-tera, just et-cee! Like the person who originally named it meant for it to be "etcetera" but other people came along and didn't know what "etcetera" was so they just read it literally as "etc".

@Aatube I mean specifically in the context of the /etc directory in a Linux installation. I'm sorry if that's not clear! I certainly agree that calling it "et-cee" is incorrect but that seems to be what they call that directory. It was in a training course I was doing and it's been confirmed by other Linux folks when I've brought it up.

So I'm curious:

People with a Nintendo Switch, what's your preference for docked vs handheld? Do you almost always do one or the other, does it depend on the game, does it depend on what you're doing while gaming? And if you also have a PS5 or Xbox X|S, what's your preference for games that are available on both that and the Switch?

Hey fellow ND peeps, question for you:

Is it just me or is drinking water a wildly unpredictable sensory experience? Like I want to drink more, but there’s so much VARIANCE. Curious what y’all’s thoughts are 🚰💦

@seekingfreedom I don't really like drinking cold water but I can chug room temperature water all day.

I'm already surrounded by kittens, so while typing may be trickier, it's a much better experience overall. #Monsterdon #QueenOfBlood

Hey #caturday buddies! I'm a foster for a local rescue and I'm about to drop a bunch of money on flea treatment so this month I'm mostly just asking for help with canned food! It's been a really rough month — two former fosters are back with me for a bit because landlords are evil — and every little bit helps! #FosterKittens #CatsOfMastodon #MutualAid

Hmmm to start with Mint or Ubuntu?

@heyfluxay I'm in an open relationship with Mint, I'll mess around with others but it's the one I always go back to.
