  • I have a couple of friends in law enforcement (NYPD & state Police). They tend to be best cops around, one of them is being sent to be a trainer so he can get some bigger promotions.

    You got to ask yourself and maybe them if they are a good person. All cops are bad because of what the system does to them. But who they are in spite of what that system is doing says more about who they are as a person.

    Chances are they’ll have edgy jokes, but you’ve been on the Internet long enough to end up here, so I’m sure you can navigate that.

    Remember conservatives hate liberal arts colleges because people who are exposed to diversity are more tolerant of it.










  • The point of social media is to interact with other people, asking questions is a good way to do that. I asked you because you sounded like you knew what you were talking about. I did Google it and there is no good evidence that it causes cancer. But they think it might increase risk. It’s very hard to study that.

    Not once did I mention eating meat. I was a vegetarian for 20 years, I eat meat very occasionally nowadays.




  • Sabayon Linux. I’m not sure if it’s still releasing updates, the main website is dead. It was based on Gentoo and later funtoo, but had a package manager of precompiled binaries. You could still use emerge if you wanted to. Definitely a weird and interesting distro

    Blend OS is trying to do the declarative nixos thing but with an arch base. That’s pretty cool.

    ClearOS was Intel’s attempt at an immutable os. From what I remember it was really fast.

    Edit: actually it clear Linux not clearOS. Edit: also clear Linux is stateless. I don’t know, there’s a lot about it I don’t understand



  • Yeah right now I weigh 170, I’m in pretty good shape (would be in better shape if I didn’t injure my foot and could start running again). But for me 180 is overweight? Even if that’s just fat that means my muscles become less visible. Hell it feels like my thighs are bigger now after getting in shape that when I was 180. And I started to look really skinny when I got down to 165.

    I’m sure people would keep calling me skinny at 180. What we need are easier ways to measure body fat percentage. Because it is true that holding onto lots of fat for a long time is what’s bad for you.

    The easiest way to check on body fat percentage right now is just to take weekly pictures of yourself in your underwear. You can see the muscle vs fat pretty well.
