Oh god, folks at work started using that in PRs recently, it eats at my soul! Or something less dramatic.

what babe?

Sapphic high five!

Gloop and gleep, heck yeah! Nearly invincible and can turn in to anything.

I’d go with Blip (the monkey), since I’m quiet aside from occasional chirps.

I literally did that one winter when I lived in a small studio and I had a particularly fancy salvaged HP workstation. It was great!

(Except I was missing an apparently important fan and most of my RAM went bad, 96G out of 128. Make sure your system cooling works correctly before trying this!)

Heck yeah!

What sort of sauce base do you like to use?

(I’m pretending like the comic didn’t punch me in the face, shhh)

I guess Euler-Langrangian mechanics was too much of a mouthful!

Does GNU make count? It’s crazy what you can do with the macro expressions, basically a Functional language using only string types. There’s even a math “library” that will do arithmetic with numbers in strings.

That’s the best name for them! (We called them grandaddy long legs where I grew up, they were always so cute and ticklish)

Gosh, thanks, I was looking for that but didn’t see it somehow!

Yeah, I don’t think human milk has enough protein to make a decent cheese, but it can be supplemented in different ways to make hybrid cheeses. This recipe suggests using cow’s milk at a 1-1 ratio:

Sad, I’m getting too old for that! So reinstall/reconfigure is a sometimes treat (and mostly just VMs).

So are they moving from Debian to Arch or just installing Linux for someone else?

You don’t know me! I could be a cartilaginous fish for all you know. (I have to use voice to text because I don’t have lobed fins)

Arguably the shark is not a fish, if by fish you mean Osteichthyes 🐟

Although personally I’m both “a fish is the thing I think of as a fish” and also “we’re all fish”

I was really hoping for this level of engineering pedantry and sensibility, thank you.

Same here, I’m a computer engineer trying to do 20-30/week. So far the only places that will even talk to me are where I formerly worked full time.

I’ve had multiple people suggest that I simply agree to work full time and then just not, but I’m not sure if those folks realize how stressful that can be.

I wish you luck in your situation!

I’m right there with ya. Don’t forget to make sure you set the interleaving correctly on your Winchester drive!

I had a portable talking version of battleship (Battleship Command) as a kid and it has these little planes. If I remember correctly, I think they allowed you to “see” a little bit of the opponents board and you placed them on top of your own ships?

Also the sound effects in that version were great, almost all done by human voice. The ship sinking sound was hilarious “glub glub glub”

Edit: in fact, this picture definitely looks like it’s from Battleship Command!

I have no idea how I went this long without knowing The Salt Lick did all you can eat family style meal, apparently it’s even at the top of the menu…

Although I’ll admit my favorite parts are the mustard BBQ sauce and the hammock garden, agreed that the BBQ is meh. And having known lots of country folks, evading taxes by only taking cash sounds about right.
