Mint is a good recommendation. I’ve used it for most of a decade because I just want my system to work.

Nobody is both that bored and that motivated. Unless paid.

This is all I’ve run across on reverse engineering, so far but it is quite interesting.

Some of the trust comes from eyes on the project thanks to it being open source. This thing got discovered, after all. Not right away, sure, but before it spread everywhere. Same question of trust applies to commercial software too.

Ideally, PR reviews help with this but smaller projects esp with few contributors may not do much of that. I doubt anyone has spent time understanding the software supply chain (SSC) attack surface of their product but that seems like a good next step. Someone needs to write a tool that scans the SSC repos and flags certain measures like the # of maintainers.

PS: I have the worst allergies I’ve had in ages today and my brain is in a histamine fog so maybe I shouldn’t be trying to think about this stuff right now lol cough uuugh blows nose

Is there really anything they couldn’t collect?

“as many as a few children” 💀

I think you win.

If you haven’t yet, give Lief Ove Andsnes’ rendition a try.

Everyone has their favorite interpretations, I guess. This is one of mine. From a pianist that impressed the hell out of me when I first heard him.

(The album Horizons if the link doesn’t work or you’re boycotting Spotify or whatever)

Dvorak Symphony No 9, Largo

God I am getting crazy goosebumps just listening to this again. I love the 9th symphony so much.

Oh wow that is amazing. Thank you!

I forgot how much I love this kind of choral music.

Best I have ever had was this, but on cibatta with a spicy Cajun mayo type spread. From a local deli chain in Denver.

It isn’t rude to examine religious texts, myths, and traditions from an academic viewpoint, however.

According to World History Encyclopedia, the story is adapted from non-Israelite, near eastern myths.

… the concept of a “garden” of a god(s) was a very common metaphor in the ancient Near East of where the god(s) resided. For the narrator of Genesis, the “Garden in Eden” was imaginatively constructed for an etiological (origin or cause of things) purpose, not as a divine residence, but of the first man and woman on earth – Adam and Eve. As generally accepted in modern scholarship, Genesis 1-11 is labeled as the “Primeval History,” which includes mythologies and legends that were very common not just in Israel, but throughout the ancient Near East. These myths and legends are not Israelite in origin but were adapted by the biblical writers for either polemical or rhetorical purposes.

This doesn’t seem that much worse than American rules that have already been in place for a long, long time.

Do you really want to be like the US, though? I think maybe that’s not a great idea. (Source: am from US)

Totally agree. Have been there and done that quite a few times too.

POLISH HIM!

And if you can’t find an answer for a mint problem on a mint forum you might find an answer on an Ubuntu forum. In other words, add Linux mint to your search first and if that fails try Ubuntu instead. At least that has worked well for me over the last decade plus.

That first one is where I feel I’ve seen myself and others get downvoted more than anything else listed here. Maybe it is recency bias from that one thread the other day lol.

Yes. Every single time. Even if it is just walking around the block at a swift pace a few times a week (light to medium exercise). Usually the depression reduces after the 3rd or 4th time, sometimes sooner: fewer negative thoughts, less anhedonia, more motivation, less negative attitude, etc. If I keep at it, usually I actually can find myself in a good mood. Why the hell do I stop exercising then? I’ll have to get back to you on that.

Oof. Would a mirror help? Either clip onto handle bar or clip onto glasses/sunglasses?
