That doesn't mention the lawsuit, or any significant manual recount, so I'm guessing it didn't go anywhere.

That's from Oct 30, has there been any update on the lawsuit?

For anyone else wondering, that was David Lammy's speech to the house of commons in Januray 2019.

It makes the peas taste funny, but it keeps them on the knife.

It's been a long time since I read that one, but it's stuck in my head.

We clearly have very different ideas of what hope is. What you're describing seems thin and rather tenuous to me, and would do nothing to motivate me. You would not look at a broken arm and just hope it got better, you'd bind the wound, splint the break, maybe get help from someone who knows what to do, and you'd expect that to help. In the same way, when facing a broken or corrupted system, just hoping it gets better, maybe even believing it can be made better, achieves nothing, and encourages exactly the sort of meme post activism we so often see. Only deciding what you can actually do to make the situation better, and then doing it, makes a difference, and if you'ce planned well, you can do it with the reasonable expectation that the situation wil improve as you expect it to. Seeing how your actions move you towards a better situation is what drives more action, and what buffers you against setbacks. At least, I find it vastly better than just sitting and hoping.

It doesn't, but roasted cow is tasty, so it just licks off the delicious surface crispy bits, and it needs to do something with the rest of the remains.

Perhaps you and I mean something different by "hope", but a revolution doesn't succeed on hope, it succeeds on determined action towards the desired goal. By all means keep that goal in mind, but, unless you are actively working towards it, you are just relying on others to achieve it for you, and if you are working towards it, then it's not hope, it's expectation, and that's a very differentn and far more positive, thing.

Code can work but still be trash. The important question is whether it's actually maintainable. Can issues be fixed without creating more problems? Is it archiected to allow likely new features to be added without having to rebuild large parts of the code? Trash can certainly be produced by humans too, but LLMs don't really take any of this into consideration, as they don't think, so they have a very high chance of producing trash.

Hope is the motivation killer. Hope is what encourages people to post memes rather than take action. Hope is relying on others to achieve your goals for you. Replace it with expectation based on deliberate action.

By adding a host, or /32, route to the gateway you should then be able to use it as the default gateway on your main subnet. I was not being serious when I suggested it, as another comment says, it's a pretty stupid idea, and there really isn't any sane usecase for it, except possibly one of those 1am "if it's stupid but it works it's still stupid, but it'll do until morning" type fixes that you shudder to recall years later.

Mostly to make the next sysadmin (or yourself in 6 months) weep. There's nothing preventing there being multiple IP subnets on a single network segment, but you'd usually handle that with separate VLANs, or at least an interface alias, so the machine saw both subnets. About the only reason I could see for just adding a static route would be if you're in the middle of reconfiguring your network to a new subnet but you still need the hosts you haven't updated to be able to route.

I really want this screenshot to be real, but I haven't found any evidence for it.
