Well … that 1959 Peugeot 403 was 30+ year old by the 90s (and 40+ in 2003) … so idk, but it def felt like a statement (& extra effort).
(Chars often have shitty old cars in the same sense as some have fancy “classic” old cars.)
And about his wife Captain Janeway who was 12 at the time she was mentioned as already being his wife:
Peter Falk expressed his disapproval of the spin-off, calling it a “bad idea” and “disgraceful”. Richard Levinson later joked that if they made another episode of Columbo they would have Columbo say “There’s a woman running around pretending to be my wife. She’s changing things. She’s a young girl. I wish my wife was like that. She’s an impostor.”

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Best way to manage all my services as containers?English
2·18 hours agoWell, I use it on all my rigs but it’s not directly what I think you are asking about.
I just use Proxmox (hypervisor) to run vm/lxc which run docker - and I just have backup images of those.
It has pros & cons but it’s not a docker backup, it’s just that by chance it’s ok for the little use I need it.
I would go for one of the other recommended solutions but perhaps consider a Proxmox layer underneath if you wanna a full image backup of the server(s?) itself.
I think it’s especially important to ask them back if they didn’t actually mean it in the first place.
Normies are weird, you just have to learn some arbitrary rules to coexist with them. It might feel fake, but it’s genuine to them.

(They are an indoor busboy, we are happy cohabiting, and they pick up things the catboy knocks off the table.)

High weh even!
(That’s when you take drugs to get closer to god.)
Yeah, but Satan (as an entity, not just a concept) is both.
And we aren’t even sure when did Canaanite/Abrahamic religions become monotheistic, and I would classify at least that as a religion change (not the rituals/practical usage, but the core philosophy).
That’s wheelchairs. Whellchairs build up vomiting muscles, flame immunity, and are ofc sulphur powered.
I have to go to a work thing on how we are supposed to boost efficiency … I might get violent if they start pitching this (bcs it’s always some bullshit).
That’s one way of solving incontinence.
Still not paperless (tho that’s not dependent just on the plane).
Well, all of them are from other religions, Lucy & god included.
P.S.
Hail Mrs Satan

Lucifer was just farrying light (ferre lucis - the bringer of light), but that just means morning star/Venus.
But like all such texts and oral traditions the dude had several previous roles via random translations, misrememberings, story evolution, several distinct religions, mashups of all those, etc.
I mean, look at this

You can easily steal a wheelchair (like taking stroller from a candy-eating pos baby) … but I would never steal (or rent for that matter) a whellchair, out of respect. And practicality, it’s daily usefulness is just unimaginable.
Maybe add a few tricks, make your soles catch fire as you walk away, lights flicker, and the candles go out.
Maybe your faith will cure someone else on a wheelchair in that church too, and they just stand up & walk away whilst their head does epic 360s …

Wdm…? All of them.
Large plantations & established trade routes/businesses, slaves & their labour, the untaxed land & it’s natural resources (now paywalled to the British & co), the war industry was just being going, etc.Basically everything that gave the colonies so much power that it could literally rival the British empire - and everything that was the reason why the USA had such a high GDP growth after.
What more could there even have been?I think people here are gonna have to reckon with the fact that there was a sincere wish for a government run by and for Americans as opposed to the British, rather than it being just greed.
All the colonies at all times want more local autonomy (even now under USA empire).
And at what time were the USA politics not governed by greed?
And how much did the British crown affect the average settler (not the wealthy)? They didn’t do much outside their local village/municipality.… it’s the rich folk that didn’t want to have bosses that can affect their wealth & power at any point.
The idea that the people wanted to vote in a complicated & not that democratic system is just propaganda to not follow the money & clearly see who had the financial motives.
Same as the land grabs afterwards.
Yeah, it was against the rich ruling class (monarchy & co), but it was to get some of that wealth generating production factors under new management bcs the time was opportune to actually successfully fight for independence from the empire.












Yeah, I can see that too (but the car did strike me as a deliberate non-typical choice from the beginning, like part of a character, like the trench coat, even when just under a decade old - but that does indeed not make it a classic car).
