In English, it’s usually used in a context where there’s some humor, frustration, or irony involved, like in the comic.

Anybody want a peanut?

It was originally posted in 2019. Joke of course being that things associated with the 1920s would be relevant again in the 2020s.

Comic then shared as a meme with the 3rd panel being replaced with other panels. https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/things-were-bringing-back-in-the-2020s

Not on Netflix in my region :(

EulerOS, a Linux distro, was certified UNIX.

But OS X, macOS, and at least one Linux distro are/were UNIX certified.

The network gear I manage is only accessible via VPN, or from a trusted internal network…

…and by the gear I manage, I mean my home network (a router and a few managed switches and access points). If a doofus like me can set it up for my home, I’d think that actual companies would be able to figure it out, too.

Debian (i3 on laptop, headless on homelab).

But apparently my coffee is Arch.

While “the system” is absolutely at fault for this, lifestyle creep — and changing finances — is very real.

For example, if you can almost afford a house, and your rental is modest, you’re probably not spending all of your take-home. But if you make just a little bit more it might make financial sense to buy a house, stretching your budget to the max. Short term this really hurts, but long term may end up being a savvy decision.

Opting for a hefty mortgage can be risky, but can also pay off in the long run — especially in a place like California where property taxes are basically fixed at time of purchase.

IIRC Torvalds uses Fedora.

(Debian for me.)

Same, an R4 with an i5 4670k I built in grad school. It’s my ham radio computer now, as happy running Debian as the day I built it.

UN-Verified

Unfortunate abbreviation…

Remote backup server would be my suggestion.

Configure it with a VPN to talk to your home network and set it up at a trusted friend’s or family’s place.

I do this with a raspberry pi and an external HDD that takes daily/weekly/monthly snapshots, with daily rsync. Works nicely for me.

I would be very surprised if such a fork would diverge from Linux. I would guess that this would be little more than a branch with (most likely) support for Russian hardware. Just my hunch.

A legitimate hard fork doesn’t seem particularly smart to me, but what do I know…

I’m guessing it’s because the developers either have a different speciality that they focus on, are employed to support specific hardware, or both.

Perhaps microwaving for significantly longer, at a low power level, would be safer and result in higher success/yield?

At 28 years old, it’s safe to say Leo doesn’t use KDE.

Happy birthday!

Just use your $200+ Fluke to check the batteries, problem solved.

San Francisco has a bunch of mixed stuff.
