Letter from Charles Darwin to Asa Gray (22nd May 1860)

With respect to the theological view of the question; this is always painful to me.— I am bewildered.— I had no intention to write atheistically. But I own that I cannot see, as plainly as others do, & as I shd wish to do, evidence of design & beneficence on all sides of us. There seems to me too much misery in the world. I cannot persuade myself that a beneficent & omnipotent God would have designedly created the Ichneumonidæ with the express intention of their feeding within the living bodies of caterpillars, or that a cat should play with mice.

Lasagne - I got layers.

Oh boy…

You’re very welcome.

There was a TIL post about that which was what prompted me to look up Old Sarum and I saw the picture of it on Wikipedia and here we all are!

That’s a prettier overhead picture!

KeePassXC can do this as well. I had no idea until I saw a post on here where someone mentioned it. Here’s the documentation.

The threat applies to Google’s Chrome and Microsoft’s Edge browsers but not Apple’s Safari or Mozilla’s Firefox

Oh dear. How sad. Never mind.

This is purely a matter of taste but I find that the typefaces being used and the way you’re using them, particularly the use of the bold weight for the title results in dense slugs of text that are not as easy to separate out the individual bits of information (Poster, community, instance) at a glance the same way I can with the default theme. This is a minor issue and I dare say that if it’s a problem for other instance owners they can bodge together some css.

Congratulations on your hard work, it is a usable interface. Well done.

Back in the day you would have asked for a flattop.

You could always save a picture to your phone and then ask them to do that. They’ll probably still ask if the length is alright but it’s up to you to instruct them from there.

A site-blocking law would let copyright owners “request, in court, that Internet service providers block access to websites dedicated to sharing illegal, stolen content,” he said. Rivkin claimed that in the US, piracy “steals hundreds of thousands of jobs from workers and tens of billions of dollars from our economy rich people’s yacht money, including more than one billion in theatrical ticket sales.”

‘Make it illegal’ is always a cheaper option ‘than spend money to implement a solution that will actually work.’

Probably not, but they’d definitely patent the method.

Dell are shit. It was a good day when the last Dell in the family was switched out for Macs.*

*I don’t like Macs either but I could plausibly refuse to support them on the basis that I didn’t know how they worked and the hardware is all locked down.

See, you’re exactly who we’re worried about kids meeting.

I saw that! Amazing stuff.

Thank fuck you’re here, was going to use defrost on the microwave.

It’s not acceptable to freeze children? Brb…

Also: big, fat, fucking, ego-driven lie.
