I've always wanted to visit, but from the footage I've seen it would probably be pretty depressing. Not so depressing once the Chagos people are allowed back though.

As someone on the inside of the US...I don't know. We've always had a pretty strong strain of anti-intellectual idiocy, but the past decade or two has just been bizarre. The ugly hate and willful ignorance is embarrassing, scary, and really demoralizing.

It's not even close to the level bullshit that has gov't funding drug research, and then getting gouged by drug companies. That doesn't make it right. I hate this on principle, but on a pragmatic level I doubt the difference from the many current models is noticeable other than on a trivial statistical level. That said, it does really piss me off as a matter of principle.

Liberals as in free market capitalists, not left leaning progressives.

I believe from context that the person you are replying to was using Liberal meaning:
a person who favors an economic theory of laissez-faire and self-regulating markets
Not the left-leaning meaning. It's another reason political discourse is so awful. People aren't using common definitions of their vocabulary.

Do you have things on the external that precludes you formatting it? You aren't doing it too often, so a tarball might work, but you'll be wasting a lot of time doing it that way. Then again, if it's once a month, that doesn't seem like a huge deal. I just use rsync now and then for my external backup and it doesn't take long at all.

I'm kind of out of date with modern Linux stuff, but can't you throw that in the .xsessionsrc or .xinitrc file?
The only one I've found is [this one](https://github.com/Zetaphor/lemmy-keyword-filter), but it doesn't work. It only triggers if I open the keyword interface and save it after every page load. I don't know enough to fix it.
Any advice for a regular smart 27 year old youngster, who has chronically underachieved and is motivated to turn their life around. They have a couple years of JC completed, and has no idea what path to take, or really what paths exist. EDIT: OK, I see I gave slim pickins here. It's not me, it's my neighbor's kid. I've known his parents since before he was born. He's a super smart kid, but like a lot of smart kids, he got kind of jaded about...well, everything. I was visiting the other day and he asked me for advice, and my retired ass has nothing. Any relevant personal experience I may have, became dated years ago. He's good at just about all subjects. His longest lifelong hobby has been video games. He took a few programming classes and liked it, but the thought of doing it full time as a career would quickly become torture. He's kind of half-assed things and just realized he needs to get his shit straight. He was thinking something like finance, just numbers. Something solid that's just a *career* direction. He is going back to school, well most likely he is, but he needs an idea of what path to take. Most of his friends are unemployed/underemployed with computer degrees.

My ISP seems to be throttling my VPN connection. Just started a week or so ago. Anyone have any tips for correcting this shit? Edit: Sorry, I didn't leave much info. I guess I was thinking in more general terms. I use PIA, have for years. I've tried to change protocols and ports, my VPN speed still sits around 10K. Just ridiculous. Speed test without VPN:  SOLVED!! OK, I'm an absolute idiot. The tl;dr I had accidentally toggled the **Toggle Alt. Rate Limits** setting. Thank you everyone for attempting to help that which couldn't be helped!
I read Kim's *Mars* trilogy years ago and liked it. I decided to pick up *The Ministry of the Future* a couple days ago. It's very different, and without any spoilers, I have to say it's made me hate humanity even more than I already did. If you haven't read it, it's a near-future climate disaster book. Well written, interesting structure, and just pissing me off. I'm about halfway through it, so maybe it'll swing the other way in the second half.
My mom has a hole in the ground that she puts her clothes drying hanger in. Like [this](https://assets.leevalley.com/Size4/10061/01S1758-folding-clothes-dryer-u-01-r.jpg). The hole in the ground is a 2" or so pipe, set in concrete. The pipe has filled with gravel. Anyone have a tip on getting the rocks out? I can only get so many out using my fingers and then trying to use a set of chopsticks.
I put a little on Ngannou, but I think Fury will just toy with him before finishing Ngannou off. Heavyweights though, you never know.

This seems far more serious than the typical lobbing explosives at each other in which Hamas and Israel habitually partake.
OK, this is dumb, but it's gone through my head a couple times. I've seen a few science fiction movies and [shows](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a0l2mEmpBSA) where the people in the spaceship use a [gravity assist](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravity_assist) and lean into the turns like they're driving NASCAR or riding a roller coaster. I think they wouldn't feel the acceleration (vector change) because gravity is doing the acceleration on every molecule and there would be nothing to lean against. I'm often wrong though. Someone smarter than I am have some insight? EDIT: For what it's worth, I guess I shouldn't have used the Expanse clip as it upset some people. I just used it for an example of what I was asking. The question is this: Under little or no thrusters, would you feel a gravity assist? Even a radical one that changes your direction 90 degrees and greatly increases your velocity?

Maybe Izzy didn't have the best camp. The Red Tomato and others have said Izzy looked off in his fight, maybe they were on to something. I still think Strickland just figured the puzzle out though.

I was lucky enough to see Boingo live a few times. Danny killing Coachella a couple years ago absolutely blew me away. I didn't see it live, didn't even know he was performing, but I saw the video of that performance and it blew me away. That has little to do with this video. I can't say I have **a** favorite Boingo song, but *Grey Matter* will always be in the discussion.
I have to admit, I don't know any of these fighters, aside from the main event. Usually that makes for a very entertaining card.
