Oh, King Crimson is the finest wild ride ever. They did things that couldn't be done anywhere else. However, I don't know anything about Jojo. I just started listening to KC in the 90s, when they were producing their last memorable original works. They are truly amazing. My favorite albums are the one you mentioned, Discipline, Lark's tongues in aspic and Thrak, though, Red is highly praised by most people. Also, if you can watch them live, even these days with the band getting old, they are an absolute delight.

No, I get it. My phones should last at least five years and some of them even have longer uses after being my primary phones. For example, I still plan to use my Redmi Note 4 Pro (mido) as a Kodi entertainment center with postmarketOS, even after six years of heavy daily usage. Every time I buy a phone I try to make sure it's officially supported by Lineage OS, but people in general just want the new thing. Honestly, the mobile phone industry doesn't even change that fast anymore. A 3-yo phone is basically as good as the new shiny thing.

Every three years? Lol.

King Crimson's Epitaph lyrics, from 1969, sing:

Well, knowledge is a deadly friend, when no one sets the rules. The fate of all mankind, I fear, is in the hands of fools.

Wow, you got booze!?

Mexican here. I don't agree with you at all. To me, Mexico is finally turning into a democracy and, while things can always be better handled, things are turning for good after the horrible 2006-2018 period. About 2000-2006, yeah, it was an okay period. The president was a clown, though, but at least he was not an assassin en masse like Calderon.

Don't bother replying to me. This is a message for the other people who reads your comment, so they know not everyone thinks like you do.

Don't forget to stop buying those fancy Starbucks coffees.

Yes, it is a free and open source app for Lemmy.

It's like the wall, really. But so much bigger, as big as it is reshaping global trade. Like the wall, it will never become a reality, except in some specific parts of the border. Well, some specific parts of the USA economy will still work, the American consumer market is irreplaceable in some extent, for now.

I would think regular Americans are already being affected by this?

Naaah, it's just companies like Adobe, Autodesk and Microsoft shitting on Linux users each time they can.

 

In the vet's waiting room there's a warning that roughly says "Don't touch Cristobal, he can be bad sometimes". . . . Cristobal is a common name for guys in Spanish, and the warning doesn't state Cristobal is a cat. It doesn't say "don't pet" either, it just states you shouldn't touch him. My favorite part was that Cristobal can be bad only sometimes.

 

Several days after suffering the DANA consequences in Valencia, the king visit is not appreciated at all.

Years ago, when Owncloud was still the only self hosted cloud solution around, the Music app used to come with an Ampache backend to connect to your music through client apps. My favorite for Android was Power Ampache, it was almost the only one, that and an extension for the really old Just Player. After a while, a Subsonic server was added to the Music app and these Subsonic clients proliferated. So, I switched to a Subsonic client, then another, and another... none was really doing it for me. DSub is great but looks dated and lacks some features, others are not mature enough, and some I just find too barebones.

Recently, Power Ampache 2 was released, and even though it's still in beta or even alpha, it already looks great and my favorite client again. Check it out if you have an Ampache server or a Nextcloud instance with music!

 

You guys seem to think my boy is all cute when he is angry, but he's some kind of monster of the week from the X-Files when he's scolding at my face! Here is proof.

 

So, Rulfo (aka Chochi) had been following me all over the house meowing loudly at me for like half an hour. I sat on the table, he followed me of course. Sat right next to me and continued meowing at my face. This is he, an instant before one of his reprimands.

I didn't want to direct this question to Americans specifically because, at this point, other countries have shown support to Israel in one or the other way. If my country was financing this, I would be taking the streets. Shit, I'm right now in the hospital but all I can think about is protesting anyway just to feel I did something to stop this madness.

Are you doing something about this? Are you feeling unsettled? How do you feel about all this mess?

EDIT: So, buying Chinese stuff takes the USS Gerald Ford to Gaza’s coast. Also, TIL that that chocolate my cousin gave me when she was 20 and I was 5, (delicious stuff!) made me a slavist-ish. The fact remains, this genocide is being paid and supported by taxpayers money; of course, I was hoping that most of us didn’t pay taxes wishing for this. Thank you all for your responses, some of them were hard to swallow.
