Yep, I drink mead, i.e. honey wine. It’s really good, doesn’t give me as much of a headache as beer these days. Sometimes it’s too sweet, I haven’t found a good dry one around here though.

I played around with Gentoo a few years ago, got it working but then got annoyed with some binaries taking too long. Wanted to build a machine I couldn’t hack though, and now there’s a repo with precompiled bins if you ask portage nicely, so I figured I’d give it a shot again. Maybe it was the mead but I forgot to do that for gcc though. oops

What a coincidence, I’m drinking mead and installing Gentoo. Currently compiling gcc, always takes forever, maybe I should’ve gone with the recompiled binary for that one lol.

No ragrets.

This post is satirical.

I mean it was 0.01, at that point he was screwed anyway, and he fixed his program.

37 is my favorite, because 3x7x37=777 (three sevens), and I think that’s neat.

I do believe you have to have serious mental health issues to remain a billionaire, and I do pity them; in a perfect world the possibility of such wealth disparity wouldn’t exist, and those with those tendencies would get the help they need without being surrounded by yes-men hoping for a sliver of wealth. They are probably incredibly emotionally isolated and lonely, and the pain they cause through hoarding is inexcusable and it would be better for everyone if that wealth was redistributed, including themselves.

I thought he was more of a revenant.

Their world seems so limiting. I wonder if that makes them feel safer or something.

They all have that same weird mouthfeel after you’re done where you swear part of it is still on the roof of your mouth or between your teeth but you can’t seem to reach it or get rid of it, feels pretty gross.

One of the reasons I was able to argue my ADHD was impacting my life negatively was the fact I was drinking enough coffee to hurt my health just to feel human and I still had executive dysfunction, so stimulants would be more effective and overall work as harm reduction. Now I’m not even on stimulants (technically), I’m finding bupropion works best for me. I still have a small cup of coffee in the morning, as it keeps me regular.

Most of the time I don’t even write, I type or use swipe-to-text.

I believe it’s 32 bytes, but it depends on the AP, some use a null terminator as the final byte.

Grey goo also doesn’t work because it’d almost certainly use the same building blocks as life, and in a competition with life, life’s probably going to be the winner. Even if it didn’t, unless it’s doing weird cold fusion subatomic interactions (probably impossible) to make more of whatever element it’s composed of, it’ll just run out of food in whatever local environment it’s in.

Hey, no kerberoasting.

I mean if it’s abandonware it’s ethical to reverse engineer and open source the reverse engineered platform, maybe even fork it and provide some sort of extensible framework for various plugins, or convert the kernel to a new architecture or even virtualize it. Hopefully we can also work out the bugs and the more glaring issues soon (looking at you, upright vertebrae).

In spite of the style being that of Watchmen’s Rorschach, the sad clown joke is older than that; it could also be Grimaldi according to the 1820s version of the joke.

I kept trying, makes sense that it didn’t work as it’s from 1912 lol.

Thanks KC Green, may the memory of your work live much longer than you do (he is very much still alive, as far as I know).

This is the reason I’ve taken to carrying a small magnet with me (combined with a flashlight/blacklight/laser pointer), so I can easily pick up those little bits that get lost (my wife cross stitches too, and sometimes her needles fall into the carpet, so it’s nice to find those before our feet do).

This feels like a metaphor but I’m too slow this morning to figure out the matchup.
