"I am very happy despite the rats, the rain, the mud, the draughts, the roar of the cannon and the scream of shells. It takes only a minute to light my little oil heater and make some George Washington Coffee . . . Every night I offer up a special petition to the health and well-being of Mr. Washington."

Is my favorite part of the article lol


According to that guy: Being shelled in a trench and drinking instant coffee is better than living at home and making coffee from coffee beans. I guess there's a niche for everyone to be happy.

How?

Jesus. You bought what sounds like a beautiful place and murdered your way to a couple dozen eggs...

Proof that dogs are the smart wolves. Get domesticated, get a steady food supply for the small price of “don’t fuck with humans”.

An accurate summation of humanity over the last few thousand years.

Bloodlust makes them taste better?

I have my house covered in observations and it would not take a rocket scientist to figure out where I live. I'm also a big believer in accurately tagging observations with locations of things in case someone else wants to try to find it. If someone wants to come to my house and take pictures of spring tails they're welcome to lol

I see this and articles like it all the time, thankfully snopes did the hard work of writing an article saying otherwise: https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/sweden-crows-cigarette-but...


Damn fake news! I was just going to pose the question whether the crows should be eligible for a universal basic income. /s


I'm rocking a framework 13" intel 12th gen still and I love it. The only issue I had was being part of the few that got a batch of bad hinges. I didn't know there was a replacement program I could have used and just replaced them myself with the heavier hinge option. At this point I have every expansion port thing they offer and keep them in my bag. My laptop can have any I/O I want :) pretty cool.


Hmm, framework 13 and Linux… loves nothing more than to drain while off. I’m getting really annoyed by that


Are there non-Mac laptops that still support real sleep? I'm worried about replacing my beater XPS.


I get about 2, max 3 hours battery on my intel 12th gen framework 13.

I generally have it always plugged in, but it's not great.


They have a support article on how to fix this!


Hows hibernate on those machines? Never did in on an SSD/NVME.


On windows at least it does what it's supposed to do. I never hibernate on Linux so idk about that side of things.


Thank you for the reminder to do my yearly viewing of that video lol


Just curious where you are in ohio and want to do more research. I'm in the Mansfield area.


Miami County. There are datacenter projects outside Piqua and in Shelby County near Sidney.


Thank you!


Very cool. Thanks for sharing!


I went through an odd series of emotions reading this lol.

ChromeOS made me throw up a bit but the recipient made me smile. May it serve them well.


It was a requirement from the school. Be happy they have one that makes it easy to flash another distro later! :D
