Re-tooting, because it has been zero days since I've seen someone waiting days for "propagation", all while their service was down because of misconfigured DNS.
DNS is not a mystery. You can know what records are being served by any public server. Query the DNS servers authoritative for your zone. If it's serving the wrong thing, you're not waiting on propagation, you've misconfigured your servers.

@swelljoe @toxi
> if you tell the LLM it is an expert, it will behave like one
Yeah, #siliconiac surely is able to emulate Dunning-Kruger effect. It also is able to emulate cruelty and stupidity of the countless masses posting since early aughties. But even that still it is an emulation.

@swelljoe @landley yeah... Not cool...
I wounder if #fish does the same, tho at this point it might...
I really wish for #toysh in #toybox to become a fully functional and good replacement for #bash.
So far it seems to work fine but I didn't deliberately tried to find it's seams and edges or break it...

@swelljoe Haha, good pick, and you're not wrong. She's very Bjork-ish. Also has a cover of Boney-M's (yup) "Rasputin" that kills me. Figuratively.
Check out #ofmonstersandmen if your already haven't, also great band.Two of my favorite composers are also Icelandic, #OlafurArnalds and the late great #JohannJohansson.

This makes me so happy :)

I love everything about this RX7. The interior? Perfection. This era RX7 is really one of the great sports cars in history. And, they were cheap enough that some of my friends had them (old and beat to hell, of course). https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1979-mazda-rx-7-84/

Stop the presses! Dan Peek didn't write the good America songs, either. I have misinterpreted the situation. Something went wrong for America (the band) in the 80s, and I jumped to conclusions. (I know what went wrong for America the country in the 80s.)

Friends, the news is not good. Contemporary Christian music breaks good songwriters. Also, he went from looking cool as hell to looking like a youth pastor.
Though it sounds like the remaining members of America were heavily influenced by "Doer of the World" for "You Can Do Magic", or maybe he'd already written it before leaving and took the "do do do do do" idea with him.
-
I was listening through all of America's hits (Horse With No Name, Ventura Highway, things of that nature, solid folky rock), got to the 80s (You Can Do Magic), and was like, "What the fuck happened?"
Christianity. Dan Peek left the band to pursue righteousness, and I guess everyone found out he was the real songwriting talent in the bunch. Now listening to contemporary Christian music to find out what happens to a good songwriter when they get serious about Christianity on Pat Boone's label.

Y'all look at this shit. It costs almost twice as much per kWh to use less electricity in Texas. Using 500kWh is basically the same as using 1000kWh. This shit is a tax on poor people and people in apartments...and also people who have energy efficient homes.
Lucky me, I use closer to 500 kWh than 1000 kWh most months.

I got luxury dogs. The most expensive and exclusive dogs. (Emergency vet frequent flyers.)

They're flying fiber-tethered drones in the Russian invasion? Also, in a just world, everyone in the chain of command ordering these war crimes on civilians would hang. https://wapo.st/4tVg0o9

I've been doing Duolingo for years. Something like five for Spanish, four for French, and three for Ukrainian and Irish. I'm finally able to mostly read/understand French and Spanish. Still can't speak it or write it, and can only barely understand it when spoken...but, I guess reading is something. Nonetheless, I think I need to do some other language thing. Duolingo doesn't actually seem to work for me. That's a long time to kinda be able to read.

But, seriously, though, is there any other band that launched more careers? Robert Trujillo (Metallica), Rocky George (Fishbone, Cro-Mags), Josh Freese (literally everybody, including Foo Fighters), Josh Paul (Daughtry), Brooks Wackerman (Avenged Sevenfold), Ronald Bruner Jr. (Stanley Clarke), Jimmy DeGrasso, Thundercat, Brandon Pertzborn (Offspring).
And, a lot of legends end up in Suicidal Tendencies, too. Dave Lombardo (Slayer), Jay Weinberg (Slipknot), Greyson Nekrutman (Sepultura).

Mike Muir is the Miles Davis of hard core and thrash. I won't be taking questions a this time.
