Those books were such a huge part of my childhood.

She turned out to be a real disappointment

I work for a multi billion multi national medical technology company at their office in central london. On day one after i got the job they gave me a brand spanking new top of the line macbook pro worth over £3k. I asked them for a bag for it and the IT guy who gave it to me looked like i slapped him in the face.

“Am i supposed to walk around central london with 3k of macbook in a plastic shopping bag?”

He produced some weird fabric envelope thing from a cupboard.

Luckily i’m sad enough to turn up to work with my own laptop in my own bag so i did have a bag but he had no way of knowing that

figured as much

Here’s a horrific example of bash and JS mashed together

echo "console.log(process.argv[2])" | node - "Please and thank you"

or bash and python if that’s your thing?

echo "import sys; print(sys.argv[1])" | python - "Please and thank you"

Or Bash, JS AND Python if you’re feeling extra masochistic

echo "console.log(\"import sys; print(sys.argv[1])\")" | node | python - "Please and thank you"

i can say thank you in more languages than i can say please in.

perhaps that says something about me

Obligado

Dankeschön

Merci Beaucop

Thank you

Gracias

Almond and Oat have that “nutty” taste that works well with chocolate.

i find oat curdles a little bit when used in hot drinks though. Personally, i’m a soy boy

It works by making fucking ugly sore blisters on/around my mouth a couple times a year. they dry out and crust off after a week or so and i get on with my life.

Oh good, yet another shitty twitter clone.

I don’t get why they keep developing separate ones. at some point it has to be quicker to just roll mastodon and defederate from all other instances

That requires giving control of society over to AI though. I’m not sure we’re there yet

Spark plugs hit home. The back 3 in my Lexus are a real pain in the arse to get to. they’re iridium so they dont have to be done as regularly but when they do it’s a good few hours work even for a professional

Kamala lost because she was too close to the administration that is blamed (rightly or wrongly, doesn’t really matter) for the cost of living crisis.

It also didn’t help that she was thoroughly uninspiring. The best part of her campaign was the actually refreshingly left wing (by american standards) walz.

It marked the third time that the Democrat party has run a soulless career establishment politician against trump. They only won the time before because Trumps fuck ups were immediately apparent and fresh in everyones memories.

some of these Civ NPCs need to understand the concept of unconditional surrender.

I’ve reduced you from a international superpower to a single city state and they’re still talking the big talk.

Why does this look like it’s been photocopied more times than my geography teachers lesson plan?

Enduring work after a week away. luckily it’s a short week

He’s got work to do on his side considering he’s basically ignoring the 1st Amendment and deporting political critics

fuck sake…

always check the subreddit name…

It’s. just. so. plausable…

/b/ is just logspammers and porn now.

And the 15 min wait to post anything has noticeably slowed down any sort of discussion. Posts on /b/ can last for up to a week now because of it

did they actually do layoffs? I think where i am a lot of the shops just let the staff levels atrophy naturally down to the level where they wanted them.

you must have scrolled a long way to get to a 7 month old post

I like the one where you’re driving around on boats shooting up vietcong encampments to the tune of sympathy for the devil…

or was that black ops 2?

Me and my GF both agree that Beatles songs are fantastic… when performed by people who aren’t the Beatles.

I enjoyed the music in the film “Yesterday” muuuuuch more than i enjoyed the original versions.

Maybe it’s the 60s style of it, idk. I just don’t really get along with it
