“you are so beautiful…”
incredulous stare
“to me…”
monstrous roar from the other side of the mall
Well I know what I’m watching tonight… No joke my sister and I used to watch that multiple times a week as teens
Senior Chief Petty Officer. Starfleet is in my blood, and I’ve spent my entire adult life in service to boldly going.
Keiko and Molly are my favorite humans, but Transporter Room 3 will always be my favorite.
Just don’t ask who what’s in the pattern buffer.

“can we get you anything?”
“ice cream…”
“okay, what flavor?”
“it doesn’t matter… It’s for my ass”
It’s a good thing those torches are still burning after thousands of years, otherwise you would have needed a flashlight!
Skilled truckers
I have met truck drivers that can (and have demonstrated) back their trailer up to a cargo dock blindfolded.
I’ve met some that can navigate turning radii (radiuses? Radiens?) smaller than my old Nissan.
And then I’ve also met some that couldn’t figure out their 13ft tall trailer can’t fit under a 12ft 8 bridge…
For the most part though, in my experience truck drivers are better drivers than 97% of regular drivers.
Lol. I wasn’t going to be paying full price for a game anyway, but now I’m not paying for gearbox games ever again.
im guessing some people have political reasons to dislike russia
If you consider trying to genocide a neighboring country “political reasons” I guess.
I’ve meditated a lot.
I’ve done a few drugs.
I liek drugz
birth bath
Uhhhhhh you should probably at least drain out the placenta fluid…
I’m a simple man.
I see GROND
I upvote/compliment.
GROND
Ah. Well that’s a relief, I removed foxit, and never had anything Adobe.
I open the pdfs in inkscape to pull the vector files and save them as an svg. There’s probably a simpler way, but this allows me to open the vector in a lot more programs like my laser software and my CAD programs.
The only pdfs that get printed like a normal person are small rc planes and the files are from trusted sources.
It’s nice to know I can do a little extra to protect myself from pdf based attacks though, thanks for the info!
Elmo has claimed to be autistic at multiple points. Most recently to my knowledge, to try and excuse his nazi salute.
So when RFK was drooling droning on about how terrible autism is, and how autistic people can’t use the restroom unassisted, by extension he was saying Musk can’t have a solo bathroom experience.
It was.
In Ohio? I’m almost positive it isn’t legal. It’s definitely illegal in states like California. But they’re banking on nobody recording their interview audio (which I will now be doing as Ohio is single-party state) and nobody complaining if asked.
I doubt it’s a company policy, but I did send an email to their company offices to complain about it, for all the good it will do.
Not programming, but in the same vein, A Trek Bicycle store manager asked me in an interview if I would be willing to work a trial shift the next day building bicycles. Unpaid, of course. Just to see if I was a good fit.
Of course, since I was used to building 50 a day, I would have gotten all of them done in a single shift whereas they were needing to call in stores from surrounding areas to come help in a few days.
I laughed and said if they needed help tomorrow I would be happy to work for my usual fee of $20/bike.
Oddly, I did not get the job
Any questionable software I have is coming up on 4 years old now, most of it is older than that. I move them to a new machine every time I upgrade, simply because I don’t trust torrents anymore.
Honestly, I don’t trust PDFs anymore unless they’re from places I know are “safe” which kind of sucks because I’ve been getting back into RC as a hobby and it’s hard to find non-pdf plans. I prefer vector files, but I’m having to try my luck with jpg and png files.
A lot of the programs I used to use have been surpassed by current FOSS projects, and I’ve been replacing them as I can. Finding an open source laser engraver program that isn’t shit is proving difficult.
Marketing really missed an opportunity for “InfiniTurd” on that one.
The last time I used skype, it was to monitor my 3d print because I needed to finish a project and my last attempt went all spaghetti.
So as I was at work I’d log into my computer from my phone, call myself with skype, and check to make sure everything was still okay.
Then I discovered octoprint.
Calling out reposts obsessively is weird to me.There’s more people who have not seen something than who have seen it, at least on the internet. I think most people have seen the moon…
But if I ever have a problem where the vast majority of the posts I see are reposts, I’ll simply block the channel for awhile. It costs me nothing, and takes less effort than typing out a comment complaining in every repost.
It’s the “STOP LIKING WHAT I DON’T LIKE” meme, come to life. And I’d rather let people have their fun. Doesn’t cost me, nor anyone else, a thing.
I love when people say they feel dumb because they didn’t know something, because then I get to share xkcd with them, too.
They stated they didn’t break piracy laws because they downloaded a shitload of books for their LLM and didn’t seed any.
Torrents are downloaded by “leeches” and put out for download by “seeders”
A proper ratio of what you downloaded to what you allow others to download should be 1:1 if you’re not a dick. (1gb downloaded means you need to upload 1gb to other users for 1:1) but if you don’t seed at ALL or if you only seed bare minimum to keep downloading things, you’re called a Leech, and derogatorily. Because you didn’t seed.
So they’re stating “we didn’t break the law, we’re just leeches!”
To many people nowadays, the actual job itself doesn’t matter, it’s the fact that it’s a job and it pays.
