Hell, I don’t even trust a single study anymore… This one was done in India under the pressures of not having enough dentists to cover their massive population.

The actual point behind it might be if you’re not going to floss, definitely mouthwash

mouth wash is at least as good

Mouthwash has a couple of downsides.

1. It does not discriminate good bacteria from bad bacteria. If you stop or delay treatment, you have a chance of getting a runaway situation with nasty bacteria.

2. It does not remove plaque. If you stop or delay treatment for a while, bacteria make and settle down in to plaque. You’re relying on dental visits to remove the plaque.

3. Mouthwash does not remove food lodged in the gumline or in between teeth.

If you don’t like flossing, I’d recommend getting a waterpic. Keep your tongue scrubbed and brush after every meal. Only use mouthwash if you start having funky smells / tastes / things seem off.

No cavities in 25 years. Unfortunately, the 25 years before that did not go as well, it took me a long time to sort out dental hygiene.

I keep one in a docker container and one in an actual pi, that way I can perform updates and upgrades without interrupting DNS service at the house.

We’re too corrupt to allow the competition :)

I was on a cruise once. Upper deck mini-buffet had a plate of piped black bean croquettes.

They were lumpy like the beef here, and because they were piped, one side of the ends was pinched off.

The head chef for the boat was making his rounds. We were laughing at the presentation. He smiled at us probably thinking what are these assholes laughing at, he looked down, frowed, what za fuk were zey thinking putting shit out like this. Within a few minutes the pan disappeared and the next day that buffet was quite pretty.

For the last few years, I’ve been trying to get them to assign me at least someone part-time to learn my tribal knowledge. I’ve been writing documents and leaving copious notes in Slack canvasses to stakeholders. If something happens to me, they’ll be struggle-bussing it.

When I go on vacation, I’m still stuck for end-game support for p0 stuff. If production is down, I’ll stop what I’m doing, If they can’t make money, they can’t pay my salary. I’ll answer P1 questions off hours to an extent.

I don’t absolutely hate it. I’m paid well for the inconvenience but they’re playing with fire. I only go places that have some form of internet somewhere (doesn’t need to be everywhere) and I’m always within 15 minutes of grabbing my laptop.

Even the printers that sell print heads as parts charge 3/4 of the printers price for them.

And, if you don’t print from an inkjet inside of about 6 months they often get clogged.

Laser printers can sit around for a decade fire right up and be fine. Inkjet printers are but for a narrow set of circumstances destined in short-term for e-waste.

It’s not supposed to be read only every time, The nasty command you enter is likely fixing a symptom.

A lot of times if you’re swapping back and forth between windows and Linux the drive will be perceived as dirty. An fsck might be enough to make it stop misbehaving.

After you plug it in if you run sudo dmesg, It might give you some insight as to why it’s being mounted read only, If you fix the underlying cause you won’t have to remember the command anymore

Trying to get Roblox running inside of mint is a pita

There may be an easier way to access the external drive, It depends on what you are bar is for difficult. Are we talking about a NAS or an external USB drive?

What’s your current method for connecting to it?

The article you just mentioned in the comments includes both a completely reasonable and viable regex and binary and library alternatives that are in most languages.

If I have a charge for 7 cents on my work CC and no receipt, I have to go through the seven layers of hell to beg for clemency.

I once spent over an hour trying to get a receipt for a refund that was higher than expected. (error in our companies favor)

The regexes are written to comply with RFC 5332 and 6854

They are well defined and you can absolutely definitively check whether an address is allowable or not.

worst thing is, the regex to check email has been available for decades and it’s fine with apostrophies

My boss, a few jobs ago, used to tell us all the dirty stories. My favorite was he was at some place to get some form of business license. He had waited a really long time to get the appointment. Apparently, the guy’s secretary was supposed to tell my boss about the expected bribe, and its amount. He went on into the office and sat down. Did you speak with my secretary on the way in? Yes. Oh good. long pause Didn’t she tell you something? No. Are you sure she didn’t… Look, we both know you need a bribe, so stop pussy footing around and tell me how much you want and we can both go about our day. Oh um, well bribe, um no, um you’ll have to go talk to her. No just tell me what you want and lets be done with it.

Stories about driving and traffic were always gems too.

Later, he went home and started a company in a tax-free zone, outsourcing most of our development for 1/4 of the cost. We had one project that got behind, it was promised on Tuesday, ran into Wednesday, at EOD her time she said she needed to leave and pick it up tomorrow, asked for permission. we were 30m away from being done, we asked her to stay. She became very upset and started to sob a little, we asked her what was wrong. Apparently if she was out after dark wild packs of dogs chased her home. I never did find out If that was a euphemism for rapists. We had another lead developer literally get run over by a bus. After then ran over him, they stopped and backed over him again.

The directions specifically lead through using a docker host and an elastic search host, But there’s certainly no reason you couldn’t just do that on your own.

I mean, it could be arranged. A button-making kit and a laser printer later…

I honestly had no idea what was in chorizo. I had been making chili with it at home and it came time to make it for work, I stopped by the market near work and they didn’t have any. I was all “FINE!, I’ll make my own” and looked it up, there are TONS of variations. The one I went for was basically vinegar, coriander, cinnamon, cloves, and most of the spices I already use in chili.

One of my favorite taco shops made one that was very hot and just a touch sweet the cinnamon was forward which I didn’t care for at first, but it ended up being amazing, it was also processed fine like round beef. I’ve been trying to replicate that for a while.

At least we finally answered the Fermi Paradox.
