plurality, negative 

wondering if we would feel better if we had a space to exist in with easily switchable and expressive avatars but oh well it's no longer the 2000s where online interactions are fun anymore

do-release-upgrade fails because it wants to nuke every single package on the system because they require libc6 >= 2.29 whereas latest libc6 for 18.04 is 2.27 which sounds exactly like canonical

@david_chisnall if this is a serious offer, and you are in, or can ship to, the UK, let me know 👀

@NanoRaptor i would've used them more recently with my mavica camera but i just haven't gone outside to justify photography 😔
