Sony Xperia Pro-I, in "Basic" mode (camera selected its own settings). f/2.0, 1/640, 6.64mm, ISO100.

The flower will fully close within an hour or two and remain shut for the rest of the day, reopening in the morning.

We BBQ these once ripe, cut into 1cm slices with olive oil and Tajin (Mexican-style spice blend).

The first sentence doing a lot of lifting here. Actually trapped?

"Decaf!?", he screamed incredulously as he plunged the broken carafe into the barkeepers neck.

Nope, haha. OpenSuse is old.

This is an amazing graph. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Linux_Distribution_Timeline.svg

OpenSuse comes from Suse which comes from Jurix and Slackware. There's a dotted line from Redhat, because of the use of the RPM format, but that is as far as their interbred. Many people consider it one of the OG distros.

Arch sprang from the aether later, but one could argue it owes Gentoo for its concept (also a dotted line there).

Debian is an OG. It, Redhat, and Suse are approximately the same age.

Slackware on the other hand just keeps going.

In some countries, your religion is on your national id. See, for example, Indonesia or Thailand. Greece had it until 2005.

In some of these cases, you could literally have government id that says "Atheist".

But it is largely a figure of speech. It means you not only identify with a group, but publicly identify with a ground.

Yeah, accuracy is hugely improved. However the POV shots feel like biplane gun footage. Like this stuff: https://youtu.be/dwrIf_5gEEM?t=354

gramie already mostly answered in line with what I'd say: there is an alt-right political shift there, where the lunatics are running the asylum and we keep expecting for sanity to re-emerge. Every country has a pocket like this somewhere. Most people in Calgary are perfectly nice, in the same way that most people in Omaha are perfectly nice, until a trans person is on TV.

As a huge sci fi fan, thanks for the rec. Have never read Forward.

Yeah, I love to say: if you assume unlimited free energy, then... all sorts of cool things suddenly become realistic. But we also probably just boil the planet to a cinder (unlimited energy becomes unlimited waste heat) due to short sighted greed instead. Cause things like Bitcoin make no fucking sense on the scale of civilization, and yet how much energy do we spend on it?

With unlimited energy someone will be like: damn, I could make a fortune harvesting all the atmospheric nitrogen and hoarding it and selling it back to the world so they can be 3% nitrogen by mass. Or some shit.

 
 

Rating: 8/10.

Was looking for some pop options that are actually truly Canadian. Too expensive, but pretty good.

 
 

Original version is 1975, but I like this version. Very sci fi city in the rain.
