Yeah, we're getting there. My grandfather is struggling more and more. His body has outlasted his mind and it's causing more issues on a seemingly daily basis... But such is the trouble with our current healthcare research progress.
Hey, I've been offline for a bit to deal with some family BS. I hope things get better for you soon. Be well, internet friend.
@hankgreen.bsky.social since I'm likely never going to be on Ask Hank Anything, I figured I should ask here... Giving the existence of 'borrowed words' between languages, are there 'stolen words' where the original language no longer uses the word for the same or similar purpose?
All of the companies that I have previously worked for no longer exist.
Let's say that condensation is a real pain. There's a reason so many of us in humid climates hate running new network drops in old buildings...
I recommend Tom Kha Kai. Like coconut curry, but a better soup. Any good Thai place should have it.
Hope you feel better soon.
Look, unless there's commercial breaks in this 24/7 broadcast for appropriate goods and services, like the All P Keyboard and Lemon Parmesan, is it really like regular TV?
Yes, the original only really dealt with world building and had too many flashbacks. You'll be fine going into the sequel.
No cringe here, just vibes. 😉
It's for shorting out electric locks and fences. Not that it will necessarily work well, or at all with most modern systems, but it's a simple thing to try with that super lightweight hose.
This is true. Also, as is the case with 'Low-key Lyesmith' in American Gods, listening to it being read spoils a reveal later in the book. So, yes, there is some smoothing, but I'd argue that those rough bits can and should be there. It's part of the book's character.

There, three because I've been offline most of the day.
I hate to play the phrase "I told you so" but that's going to be one of the first phrases I get to use during our regularly scheduled call in 8ish hours, likely without enough caffeine or sleep, all because of a kindergarten-level skill that some people can't be bothered to do.

Our VDIs don't magically get created just because we've created the user accounts or bought the licenses. No, that requires intervention... and available capacity in Azure, but that's another rabbit hole for another thread.

The issue keeping me awake is more annoying than that... As my team is supposed to monitor and ensure we have the capacity to meet the needs of our organization. Which is extremely simple as our ticketing system does the counting for us, if you tell it to do it ahead of time.

You see, counting is a skill that most learn very early on, but some have decided to ignore in their professional lives because it's inconvenient.
An unrelated example: Why don't we have enough cake for the office party? Because HR didn't count properly ahead of time.

I feel like this is going to turn into a @swiftonsecurity.com rant, mostly because it's 12:30 and I still haven't made it to sleep yet, so I'll tag him in before I begin.
Why am I up still? Simple, because some people can't be bothered to count.

I was today years old when I realized that @marthawells.com is the author behind Murderbot. I honestly have no idea how I missed that part as Martha is in my top ten authors. Whelp, guess I need to catch up on my reading list.
As a native Floridaman, I would be remiss not to plug Gator bites or Grouper fingers. Both equally fried in seasoned breading best served next to fries and a special dipping sauce. The sauce can be a bit contentious, depending on where in Florida, but it is a must.
Honestly, looks good on you. Keep trying new things like that, you'll never know what you just might find.
I love it when someone I follow is also a fellow Eagle. On your honor, keep doing your best, friend.
As a fellow script writer... I approve of the multiple cups of coffee this required. The level of patience necessary for dealing with users like this is accurately depicted here. Moar caffeine equals moar patience.
OK... I mean, isn't that just like all winter holidays? Like how much cheese did you consume in December?
Excuse me, @ripperoni.com, it's been more than an hour and you haven't noticed Miiss Triixie and her boot here. Are you OK?
I dunno... I think Liam has you beat in the bean MVP arena.
FWIW, it's got a strange history because it isn't from London. It's originally from Vancouver, Canadia. Here's a great article about it:
I feel that it's obligatory to post this wonderful internet reminder. Too bad my elderly neighbor who used to train homing pigeons died during COVID...
There is a whole campfire skit about that very idea... It's called Three Rivers.
