It probably should've been dolphins, just as a nod to H²G², but also because I'm not sure the scale of that Klingon BOP ever read as big enough for two whales to me.

But, some possible suspects: whales (maybe they are superintelligent, pan-dimensional beings and the business with the krill and the singing is just a front), whale keepers or collectors (maybe they've stocked Earth with an important livestock that they want to protect from the apes, or see TNG S3E22 "The Most Toys"), whale descendants (see VOY S3E23 "Distant Origins"), or a species that has determined that loss of the whales indicates humanity has become irredeemable (or a corrupted timeline).

With no taxes on tips (if it actually happens), expect a HUGE increase in tip expectations.

WinGet, choco, scoop, &c, they all have strengths and weaknesses, which is why I had to write this: https://github.com/brianary/scripts/blob/main/Update-Everything.ps1

It's also why I use Linux at home.

Do they mean "buying" instead of "owning"?

I'm just worried about another No Labels situation.

I really like the tiling window support in Pop_OS!'s Cosmos desktop.

It's the same argument I've heard about the "complexity" of Mastodon: too many choices, which is I guess why people largely stopped going to websites outside the major social networks. Monopoly over competition, it's like everyone is pining for a monarchy.
