In australia it takes 3.5-4 years for a PhD. Then after you finish you move on to postdoctoral research, because doing a second PhD makes no sense

What am I missing in the “end Kernel panic” one?

You actually think you’re going to rise up and fight against your national army? How about fighting for a better democracy instead, like by getting rid of Gerrymandering, abolishing corporate lobbyists, adopting preferential voting etc

Oh no! I only got an education from my school and didn’t get to fire a gun even ONCE! Let me go sit in a corner and cry myself to sleep with my secure, well paying job and free health care. By the way I’m in army reserves and get paid to shoot rifles and automatic guns at firing ranges. It’s okay, I guess, but I wouldn’t go if I weren’t paid lol

damn, she hot

Thanks, it was fun. I hope your day went well too!

Not bad, went to the gym this morning, actually did some work. I might do some of this course now… Playing board games with friends this evening. I guess my life is pretty good, so not sure why I feel grumpy so often lol

Cool, I just installed Thunderbird and am giving it a go.

I would totally read that book

I’m all for getting into old school tech, I even like to browse neocities.org on occasion just for the hit of nostalgia for the old web rings. I never got into newsgroups though, and I’m wondering what reasons you might use that instead of something like Lemmy, Mastodon etc?

Apart from the piracy side, I know all about that already lol
