He was the candidate for the raving loony party.

Avocado is fine. Not worth paying a premium for, but still ok. The biggest problem with it other than the price is getting it ripe (and not overripe) and unbruised. Too much effort for something that’s just fine.

I think Karl and Ian had a falling out over Ian’s desire to avoid politics, not over his politics per se. I haven’t seen anything lately than suggests they ever hang out anymore. Ian still goes to shooting events Karl is involved in, I think, so it can’t be too acrimonious.

Meidas Touch. Clickbait headlines and thumbnails, unrealistically optimistic takes on things. I want information, not bullshit.

Aren’t the rural hospitals all heading towards closure due to changes in medicare/medicaid funding? I’m pretty sure you’re just in the new normal.

CCP is pro-CCP.

LifeTime(Hours) apparently rolled over on a couple of my drives. One of them has about 12 years and five months on the Head_Flying_Hours counter, so at least that.

For adding a quick thing to make something happen at a specific time, I can add a cron job in a couple of minutes. To add a timer takes creating a couple of files with syntax that took me a while to look up last time I needed it, and running a command. Then debugging. Sure, the timer has benefits, but cron jobs are still simpler.

On the bright side, there’s actually a “crontab -t” command that apparently can be used to generate timer files from a crontab line, which I hadn’t known of before today.

Systemd is fine, but we should be aiming for better than fine.

That being said., there’s definitely something to be said for sticking with “fine” until something else proves itself to be at least adequate with potential to be better than merely fine.

As someone who’s created a timer, cron is much more straightforward.

Systemd has its good points, but most of that is the core functionality as a sysvinit replacement in my opinion. And it’s entirely likely that at least one of the newer alternatives is a better option for that.

Macron should be a bit more realistic. Expecting Trump to be serious?!?
