"you'd aligned yourself with a single point
and were flying towards it just as you tunnelled
through me before and my body remembered
the force of that will, had been its vehicle."

In my experience, there is very little scavengable food in dumpsters. You'll have better luck with the trash cans behind restaurants.

Well of course. It's hard to find and hunt woolly mammoths these days.

Hey #Linux friends (and enemies) I have a weird #SSH question.

If I try to SSH into a server, I get a timeout. If I try to SCP some files to it, it works!

What's going on?

The server has an entry in ~/ssh/config

This fails: ssh server
This works: scp text.txt server:/path/

Can any shed some light on why one works and the other doesn't?

Park City School District Superintendent Jill Gildea announced plans to retire Monday, just weeks after a controversy ignited over whether she disclosed that she was exploring other job opportunities before district leaders renewed her contract.

The main #problem in my eyes 👀 is that some people don't understand the difference between theory and fact or they know the difference but believe in alternative facts. You can't argument with someone who says, that he understands but don't feel the facts. For example climate crisis - "I don't feel the hottest year because it is cold at the moment." 🤪

Just as I suspected! The unicorns are behind it. Stands to reason. Satan has horns and hooves, so unicorns are Satan's horses. Just remember all the Bible passages that talk about Satan's horns and hooves.

It's shocking the number of conspiracy theories that claim Putin ordered the invasion of Ukraine or that Trump used to be on reality TV and divorced his wife to marry a younger immigrant. Lies. All lies! Lies spread by unicorns in league with Satan.



"For the third day in a row, officials today had to evacuate two elementary schools in Springfield, Ohio, citing threats that have led to safety concerns. The city has also canceled 'CultureFest,' its annual celebration of diversity, arts, and culture, and the local colleges are meeting virtually out of safety concerns. The Bureau of Motor Vehicles has had to close, as has the Ohio License Bureau."

that community seems to be besieged by extremists. I would suggest relocating secret service agents from w palm beach...

@albertojavier Besieged by extremists pouring in from the outside, for sure, with a strong neo-Nazi presence among them.

I understand that but without knowing to a certainty, I would bet the man has no license or permit to possess or store explosives.

@WmShakesp3are Could well be. I haven't seen commentary on that point, so am not well-informed.


Sans surprise, Coquerel et Courson repartent de Matignon bredouilles, les services du Premier ministre ont refusé de leur remettre les lettres plafonds sur le budget. Le président de la commission des Finances et le rapporteur du budget se disent "en colère" et sidérés. L'exécutif a une lecture de l'évènement: "Sous Chirac, on les aurait arrêté avant les poubelles", ironise un conseiller, qui dénonce un "show ridicule". Ambiance

@nkn Notre système politique est basé sur des règles de courtoisie républicaine et pour un gouvernement qui a la majorité absolue, on voit ce qui se passe quand ce n'est plus le cas et que l'exécutif est autoritaire... Les contre-pouvoirs sont inexistants

C'est plus profond que cela, me semble-t-il. Le soutient illégal de MacKinsey à la campagne de Macron n'aura jamais de conséquence judiciaire (je suis assez vieux pour me souvenir des fausses factures de Chirac). Les Balkany passe à peine une nuit en prison. Les entreprises achètent l'abandon des poursuites.
