@yuliyan The alt text is fun to read as much as the picture and says:

Scene from the 90s comedy sitcom Seinfeld showing Jerry Seinfeld's flat.

His neighbour Cosmo Kramer is spreading coins on a round table searching for a quarter.

Cosmo fell in love with the feeling of freshly warmed clothes from the dryer. The dryer in the basement of the building operates on quarters. Cosmo can't get enough of it.

Right next to the pile of coins there is a half bit red apple which Cosmo is biting into occasionally. Jerry stands next to him and asks him why he's doing this on his table and not on his own.

Cosmo Kramer replies "I don't have a table.".

Self-fulfilling prophecy and example statements... 

💬 "It's too much to change"
💬 "I don't have time"...
💬 "I can't do anything about that"...

And while time is needed to think about things etc and even accept taking the long way around to solve things, people who are too quick to say all the above have settled for allowing things to be bad too and constantly let them continue instead of being constantly open or attacking to find a crack.

Like it or not this lack of looking is somewhat part of the problem too.

We people ( / or otherwise) can't stand or allow that like a mechanic who knows you can't ride around with leaks for too long, and can even admit they are not a perfect mechanics either, but we all MUST try (and not just try in one way or mono-work as that's part of the non-cross-pollinating solutions).

Else we leave it to others to crap on.

This "being crapped on" position is much more evident then any of our 'bad work'.

The average person simply doesn't want to take on the sort of things and even get pissed off at others asking them to be more responsible in life!

🔁 🔃 🔁 🔃
(and what doesn't go around often also comes around less often)

A good friend replies to almost everything... 

But at the same time it's hard to survive whole-truths or being too deep in 1 way constantly.

It's like facing the horror humanity at the same time as trying to make friends.

A rant can feel like it's directed personally at friends and feel like having wheels without grease that people want to instantly throw away, but after a rant things can instantly return to normal (IF they can ride the noise for a while). And then back to the normal greased-wheel fun AFTER.. Not many can stand these frequent "test"

For us the "un-normal" or those the less hiding ourselves and less burdening others in this crazy world, we are trying to repair or help in the over way, where many opt out of trying at all... because "it's too much change" and "I don't have time" ETC whereas we can't stand or allow that self-fulfilling prophecy and can even admit we're not perfect but we MUST try else leave it to others to crap on.

So too much truth can kill things between 2 learners of life... but that's life too.

Both outcomes are actually not bad as a little test of friendship is natural to come about but at the same time having lots of non-deep friends can help too be less sharp...

What do you prefer ? Do you think your friends will be actually stay there even if you say something bad or do the worst things?

I have to accept for example that I don't have too many friends as I prefer working on true things in life rather than false daily life of "business as usual" uncaring state (etc)... rather than cover it up...

This for me all connects the little things we might know about people or just characteristics more in some spectrum than another but all should be good because generally:

➡️ We care a lot and often (often 'too much" for others)
➡️ We put certain aims above all else

And for some people it's not good enough to be put 2nd on the important list or be less the focus but in a way those 'other things' are caring for others though people can see friendship as possessions. It's not. Life is for sharing... good and bad.

@MooseAllain Also think it's fine as it is but like @pseudomonas / Adam's post and especially the part to consider having a style for captioning which might not need a total change or relearning.

Try even different hand position or even just bigger font (lots of comics have so you can read even from thumbnail or wordpress reduced image size,

Either way I like that it's from you.

P.S People don't usually complain or want to correct / risk saying things . use their time constructively - so I wouldn't gage things on that so much for feedback (people don't complain directly even if done wrong over money etc!). Just my observation that I risk it and that's why I have no friends but tell the true of reasoned sorts... :thumbsup_hmn_h2: 😃

#Invidious [1] works again! Together with the #privacy-redirect [2] extension, this lets you watch #YouTube videos without #ads and autoplay and other dark patterns: Pretty important if you have kids!

It stopped working after Google updated YouTube a few months ago. The new version requires setting `visitor_data` and `po_token` and adding an inv_sig_helper to the docker stack. See the docs [3].

Judge gives rhyming rap back to #Eminem claimant 

from Judge Deborah Servitto

"Mr. Bailey complains that his rep is trash 🗑️
So he's seeking compensation in the form of cash 💸
Bailey thinks he's entitled to some monetary gain 📈
Because Eminem used his name in vain 😏
...
the lyrics are stories no-one would take as fact
They're an exaggeration of a childish act
It is therefore this court's ultimate position
That Eminem is entitled to summary disposition."

Pretty smooth by the to do it in that way serving the resulting and a at the same time!

Appreciate those things and even how serious it is.

At the same time, yes the time is nigh whenever you feel like "now for a bit of reading 1min for that bugger freeschool"

...maybe a hot beverage sitting next to you while you record... 🍵 ✌️ 🎤

Thank You x 10

@MooseAllain Dang I really like this -
the text could be a bit loopier *still handwritten) to be a bit clearer

I'm looking for a new job doing security assessments / research.

I spent the last 6 years building advanced security assessment capabilities around hardware/IoT, industrial, marine OT, and x86 platforms. Before that I spent 5 years as a pentester. I excel at weird and novel stuff with no template.

I'm in the UK and I'm looking for a remote full-time role.

Please get in touch if you know of any available roles! :)

@kirkman Such a good read.

:question I wonder how to contribute to good people as I watch things go - my skills are not amazing but energy infinite

I'm a fan that is fast and persistent to help creators and offer disposable suggestions to find that one thing... and I feel giving money only is anyway debt / paper (signed as loans as false maths) is limited ... so if you can answer than I'd appreciate it as it seems people can't even handle fans or how fast someone can reply or many things psychological perhaps...

And create from creations basically = love of sorts ... it's also the downfall somewhat I'm trying to 'crack' or 'hack' even if things naturally dwindle there is a lacking of human mindset / giving of another kind...

… I have seen things you wouldn’t believe …

… ribbon cables for hard drives… Master/Slave #SCSI termination… (mind screams in rebellion)… the little switch boxes to hook your original #Nintendo console or #VIC20 to a TV and then get headaches from staring at the TV CRT too closely…. a VIC-20 cassette drive with a box of about 150+ unlabeled tapes… painstakingly typed in from the listings in #BYTE magazines… Taking low-density 3.5″ floppies, and drilling/punching a hole through to double your storage and make them “high-density”…. the squeal of a modem (and trying to get the #IRQ conflicts resolved via changing jumper switches)… attempting to connect to #Datapac to try and reach unknown systems, running a #BBS inside a #DOS box, on #386(SX) #Windows 3.0 machine, Setting up your own #UUCP #internet over #dialup

All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain…

The clicking of an #IOMEGA #ZIP drive, whose time it was to die…

@Pentapod Woa, yeah if you met them on bbs and now full circle that heavier than my brief low and then post with picture offered as gratitude on the BBS hashtag which is at the top at the moment

Continuing to build on my #AgonLight Telnet using the @olimex UEXT wifi module, I can now #telnet to a number of #BBS services over the internet and use my font of choice while doing it. There's still a bit to go, but I wouldn't have gotten here without all of the cool features @stevesims keeps adding to the Agon VDP, and of course Nihirash who came up with a native #Gopher browser, as well as those who continue to run BBS's. Shoulders of giants in #retrocomputing - it really is a team sport!

@punishmenthurts
Maybe your diction is good !

If you're using these kinds of words and able to write there is a good chance (and proof) you can but it's mixed feelings so...

...if you're not good at something then it's probably your self-approval that is poor rather than ability 8)

So I claim a bit of sabotage on your part... which is fine but let me be the judge with this suggestion...
