Wow, it looks exactly like when god changes the input from daytime to nighttime!

Rip and tear, until it is done. And you can start knitting again.

Honestly, why enable this kind of behavior in any way? Any user is free to make an informed choice by installing it themselves.

We all know how this goes. Once a critical mass is reached, enshittification begins to milk everything dry. By making it an installer option, you're legitimizing it and supporting a worse future for the Linux desktop.

To get to the other side!

Yeah, Flatpak is far better. The most glaring issue: Canonical hosts the only Snap backend, you can't host it yourself. Flatpak on the other hand is fully open.

Don't introduce proprietary crap just so companies can profit off of it.

They should be happy to have a place to si... uh, park. Now they also want food?!

I think I should get more creative with my lasagna, those sound like good additions!

Who makes Lasagna with olives? And WHY DOESN'T IT SOUND ALL THAT BAD?

Anything fruitfly and above would have meant I'll just move, but yours sounds so much more horrifying. Oh god.

Luckily they are tiny tiny wasps, like specks of dust. Anything bigger and I would have run!

Getting rid of the wasps was easy, the frogs took care of them. The annoying part was getting rid of the snakes...

Nah, the wasps are tiny, I could barely see specks of dust moving around. They just died off after the larvae were gone.

I just dealt with them a couple of months ago, absolute fucking nightmare. What solved it in the end was parasitic wasps - you can order them online. I received 3 letters in the mail a couple of weeks apart, each containing a small paper card with parasitic wasp eggs, which you put close to the source of larvae. The wasps lay their eggs inside the larvae eggs, but you'll need to use all three letters to get all larvae throughout their cycle.

Sounds weird as fuck, but immediately solved the problem.

 

It doesn't stop. It just never stops.

 

Everyone has something they can't stop themselves from nerding out over - but often it's hard to find people to talk to about it. So go ahead, share your interests, and tell us about them!
