I don’t screw them in unless it’s in a confined location where the cable is applying pressure to unseat, or if it’s fallen off at least once

Modems can still make noise. As recently as five years ago I still had to work with modems. A lot of them now have silent mode though

You come from a nice family. My family disconnected each other all the time

I don’t believe that you don’t believe me

I don’t believe you

What? They didn’t sign the treaty. The treaty was between the PRC and the UK. HK didn’t sign….

HK has been politically part of PRC since, what, 97? It is not moving closer to China at this point. After Beijing installed a puppet, it became a definitive part of PRC. Hell, they are arresting news organizations. The UK held up their end of the deal, and PRC isn’t following through on theirs

I’m confused. You don’t know that the sun will rise tomorrow - you believe it will. Science is our best guess at how the universe around us works. Geocentric was how we believed the universe worked until that theory was proven to be wrong.

You know the current theory, and based on that knowledge you can believe it will rise. There could be some phenomenon that will turn the sun dark for 7 days that is not part of the current model. It’s unlikely, but possible.

Knowledge is the understanding of that which will not change. Yes, you can modify the theory tomorrow but it will not be the same theory as today. That’s why it’s knowable

I only joke about Arch being the superior distro because, well, I use it and because it’s apparently a thing.

I actually don’t have any strong feelings about Ubuntu. It’s a distro. It works. I only use Arch because of the AUR (I’m lazy, okay?). I don’t have strong feelings about it either. Linux is configurable to basically exactly what you want. Once (or if) you get into customization you just pick the distro that allows you to get to what you want faster.

I do have strong feelings about Windows though.

Gotta get out while the gettin is good. Otherwise, if you lose the copyright lawsuits… RIP

Uh oh, I think about Canada a lot.

I don’t think about Iraq. Should I?

We need to see proof of those WMDs first

No, Bush, you have to have actionable intel.

Wait, why would you not call 911? Murderer on the loose sounds like an emergency to me

Ew. Hexagons are the bestagons

Ustedes should be hablan

No I don’t approve sex work. Who am I? The sex work administration? Do you need a stamp from me to perform sex work? No?

Then who cares?

I am warming to her but her VP pick doesn’t matter to me. I refuse to vote for Trump.

Microsoft. Also I still end up in spam. Too lazy to do warmup
