I’ve used ls, cat, echo, cd, mkdir, mv, cp, rm, & ssh pretty much every day I’ve touched a computer since some time near the end of the twentieth century. Honorable mention to sudo, find, rename, ffmpeg, Gimp, & VLC. If you count ROMs for games, the list gets into the deeper past, though I don’t use them as often. I guess I still need to get around a few Windows/DOS machines, so DIR and (I don’t love DIR) CD are is probably the absolute oldest when at the keyboard, but it’s technically a different thing for different systems even though it does the same task.

As for loving it, I love when shit just works and I love the command line.

What is up with the sudden influx of this awful artist’s horny misogynistic shit getting posted over and over and over lately? Most of it gets rightly downvoted to hell, but plenty of it isn’t outright offensive enough in the moment to offset the up votes for boobs. Between this creep and Beep (the other horny shit stain cropping artist attribution and AI upscaling comics), the content here has really taken a turn for the worse. It’s like as soon as everyone turned on Beep, this other jerk popped up and started spewing another variety of horny slop. Seems like too much of coincidence to be a coincidence.

Some people have an account on many many many different instances and cross post to them all from different accounts so that when you block their account on one instance you’ll still see the posts from their alts. Could this be part of what you’re seeing?

Hey Beep, forget to switch accounts?

Take a look at the timeline for cigarettes. The time between something causing harm and someone putting together the statistics to prove that it does is not that short. 2006 was like yesterday. Kids that started vaping as children in 2006 aren’t even old enough for a midlife crisis yet.

Lol, not surprised. I have them tagged as horny for AI and I don’t mean they’re just enthusiastic.

That’s a copout and also just plain false, call them feelings or takes makes no difference here. That’s not how discourse works.

Some stories use hyperbole for dramatic effect, so clearly this is a flaw in the fundamental concept of all narrative fiction. What a dumb take.

Sounds like the lyrics to Shipoopi, originally from the “The Music Man”.

Squeeze her once when she isn’t lookin’ If you get a squeeze back, that’s fancy cookin’ Once more for a pepper-upper Never get sore on her way to supper

I fully agree. Crisps/chips are also great with chopsticks, no more flavor fingers.

But this is probably more an unpopular opinion in the west than a shower thought. It shouldn’t be unpopular, but just look at the other comments. Clearly not a lot of chopstick users. And I kind of doubt anyone that claims a salad can or should be shovelled.

You shouldn’t be shoveling a salad unless it’s potato or macaroni salad. Maybe your thinking of coleslaw? Leafy green salads are nearly impossible to shovel with a fork unless you mince the ingredients into unrecognizably tiny bits, aka a slaw. With very little practice, eating with chopsticks isn’t much different than eating with your fingers. In fact, there’s a few things I can do with chopsticks that I could never easily do with my fingers or a fork.

You can absolutely shovel with chopsticks. It may take a little extra dexterity, but is far from impossible. It’s really only harder if you haven’t much practice with chopsticks. Besides, shoveling anything with a fork is kind of a disaster when you throw leafy greens into the mix.

That’s not how I eat a salad with chopsticks. No stabbing, no shoveling; at the dinner table that is bad etiquette. It’s more like “grabbing” a clump of lettuce and toppings mixed together with a couple “fingers”, except your “fingers” are chopsticks. Most of the small bits stick to the leafy greens or are inherently wrapped up in them. I find picking those few remaining tiny bits out of the bottom of a bowl is actually easier with chopsticks than trying to shovel them on to a fork.

Good news! Eating things like salad, chips/crisps, fried rice, noodle dishes, ramen, etc. is a great way to get good with chopsticks.

2 demons for under a penny is quite a deal.

If you’re into that kind of speculation, you might enjoy “The Cosmic Serpent” by Jeremy Narby.

We could use something like the international fixed calendar and just make the new year’s day and leap days a day of the week so that the calendar shifts by a day or two every year.

That Wikipedia article is surprisingly silent on Norris’ support of Trump.

Fair use is not disrespectful, it’s not illegal, it’s not worsening the climate crisis like your local models.

Sand Hills aren’t very afraid of humans anyway.

Yes, that is the vulnerability that you are exploiting and making worse for an entire family of cranes.

I’ve seen this story before. It usually ends in tragedy for the cranes. You’ve likely already seen the results with the loss of their chick. You blame it on a wild animal without proof, but it’s just as likely that the reduction of their fear response to humans (as a direct result of your “kindness”) led to their death.
