That thing when commenting out an entry you made in /etc/modprobe.d years ago to work around a flakey wifi driver suddenly makes all the amazingly annoying wifi problems you have been having for the last 6 months go away? Yeah, that thing.X11R5, uıɐɾ ʞ ʇɐɯɐs likes this.

I rather like how GNOME has designed away the need for a menu bar altogether — no wasted space like Windows, no loss of spatial dissociation like Mac OS.“… no spatial dissociation like Mac OS’, even.
I need my spatial dissociation to feel normal. :-)Claes Wallin (韋嘉誠) at 2013-10-11T09:22:59Z

Coalition takes down NBN web site in preparation for replacing it with "Shit NBN” web site: http://ur1.ca/fictr
They didn't need to take it down they could have just re-titled it from National Broadband Network to Narrow Band Network

Confused by the bland uniformity of Australian parties? Don’t care enough to pick between the Democratic Labour Party and Liberal Democrats?Well then step right up my friend, you need my How to Vote in the 2013 Australian Federal Election guide! http://ur1.ca/fdzovI reckon The Pirate Party are more a one policy party i.e digital rights, although they are ideologically aligned with The Greens. The Non-Custodial Parenting Party are are a men's rights party which I would suggest puts them as a borderline hate group.
Oh, points taken, thanks. I had to admit I didn't follow up on the PP since I assumed they toed the line of their European counterparts, whose copyright reform agent last I heard seems actively harmful.*bumps*2013-09-05T01:28:53Z via Identi.ca Web To: Public CC: Followers

@spacehobo Oh, I thought JuJu was for more high-level, cloudy stuff than adding users or sync'ing config files. Is that not the case?
