I felt like Rachel Brosnahan's performance as Lois Lane was either inspired by or an homage to Margot Kidder. They both seem to effortlessly balance smart, funny, feminine, and powerful in an apparently effortless way. Both have maad rizz, no cap.

My social anxiety combined with an ability to sing that is overshadowed by my ability to hear when people sing off key is exactly why I sing karaoke. I belt out the songs I know I can sing (at least a little) and songs that I love because it beats the thrill of any roller coaster around. My eyes may be closed. My hands might be shaking so bad I can barely hold the mic. But... I don't know. Karaoke isn't about being good. It's not about talent. It's not about looking good for the gram. It's about being in the moment and not letting all of that bullshit silence the song in your heart. Fucking let it all out. It's like jumping out of a plane BECAUSE you have a fear of heights instead of doing it in spite of that fear.

If that illusion makes you feel safer, then I don't care enough to argue with you about it.

There's no need to involve the courts when the social media networks are complicit. It's not as if "how" they obtained the data will ever be tested in court, they only need the data for their own internal investigations. Courts and spy agencies don't have anything to do with it.

I used to use fuckoff@aol.com or fuckyou@aol.com whenever some page forced an email address for access. Sadly, those don't seem to work anymore, so I've transitioned to getfucked@hotmail.com or if I'm feeling spicy I just feed them whatever email address I can find listed on their own site.

That makes sense, because any government agencies that actually have a need for intimate knowledge of your social media footprint don't actually need your password to harvest ALL the data that network has on you public and private.

It is amazing how completely this comment misses the point, the joke, the meme, shitposting, trolling, just absolutely every nuance of context.

At that scale meters and miles are pretty close with respect to orders of magnitude, which is why practically everyone talks about these scales in AUs regardless of what units they actually used to do the science.

A CSV is just a long string of text with a few control characters tossed in for end lines. There are practically no rules enforced by the file type itself. You can dump that unsanitized and poorly awk'd data into whatever awful mess you want. Nobody's stopping you. Sure, excel will force it's CSV formatting rules on you when you export like a child's training wheels. But that's not relevant here.

There's no due process anymore. Why do you believe you'll ever be granted a lawyer, let alone a phone call, or a court date? They're just out there assaulting and disappearing people.

You want mpd to server and play the music, connected with a web front end (there are a few to choose from) accessible on the private store wifi. You should probably serve this frontend only to a certain machine on the network (like the managers computer in the back) and lock everything else out. The last time I ripped CDs on Linux I used whipper, which I believe was the successor to morituri. This is all only legal if the CDs they have already included the licensing fees to play them publicly or are themselves freely licensed. There are sources of freely licensed music out there that you can play publicly without paying.
