If you want to have a tiny chance to see a perfectly good car get towed for no reason add “I have the part that fell out.”

No Stupid Questions•Why are there so many Christmas songs, yet hardly any New Year's ones?English
5·2 days agoI heard once that in the early days of printing (and literacy) most of Europe’s reading material was made for or by the church. And one of the things that was very popular at various points in the 16th century were books of hymns, many of which contained old latin hymns turned Christmas carols. It doesn’t explain the lack of New Years songs, but it may be why we continue to have so many Christmas songs compared to every other holiday.

Much like xbox has become too little money for them to care about, so too is the desktop OS. At this point it is much more valuable as a tool to make people too dumb to do anything without AI.
I’ve been told I can have “not windows” on my work laptop when I’m eligible for an upgrade in September. Don’t know if that will be Linux (as requested) or a macbook. I’d prefer the former but I’ll be thrilled with either. This will finally be a microsoft free household.

I always wanted to be a fly on the wall when they named the colony (later state) of Virginia.
“We should name this place after Queen Elizabeth.”
“Excellent idea, Elizabethia it is!”
“No, no. Virginia. 'Cause she’s never… you know. Wink wink, nudge nudge.”
I’ve decided all flash fads on Lemmy are beans. So, like botanists consider tomatoes to be a fruit, I say corn is a bean.

55·10 days agoI stopped hosting my own email servers many years ago, even when I was being paid for it. Any time anyone mentions DKIM or yahoo throttling or anything of that nature I get a thousand yard stare and and start to hyperventilate. I’m sure it easier when you aren’t sending 5 million messages a month, but who needs the headache.
I was asked to evaluate the last version of Gemini for work. I set up the agent, gave it a robust
gemini.mdfile, and asked it about a bug I was seeing. It told me the bug was because I had spelled “Arrange” with 3 Rs. Except:- I hadn’t
- Doing so would not have caused the bug I was seeing
- 3 consecutive letter R’s didn’t exist anywhere in the code base
Gemini 3 really had no where to go but up.

My wife has enlisted friends to help me sell her yarn stash if she dies before me. There’s probably 10 large worth of high value dye lots sitting in bins around me. Her work includes a $200/month yarn shop stipend, and has for many years now.
