What good are notebooks?

@whatgoodrnotebooks

Not here for anything in particular, you'll just have to go with vibes (although films [movies], motorsport, politics, and culture seem to come up a lot.)

You can't go round expecting people to actually follow news stories they are "following"

One of the few albums where I remember listening to it the first time, where, who with, etc. (On CD though)

It will be made safe by removing it from this environment into another environment

Ah I also like to use money as money

On this particular topic, I think I've blocked more very stupid but well-meaning people than I have blocked actual bad faith people.

I turn off plenty of that nonsense, so that there is some VRAM left to actually use my GPU as a GPU

I like to go on gearspace and start an argument about how a band did something, with an actual member of the band.

No. Not really. It's the Telegraph. Can you just not give these fucking oxygen thieves more oxygen?

Ohhh the whole hideous jingle. Ugh.

Pardon our interruption...

Of course I'm old enough to remember NatWest animal cheque books www.ebay.co.uk/itm/20515846...

Did Midland do something similar? I seem to remember a more cartoony version ...

Put a fifth of a pony on fivers. So when you do have a pony's worth they line up like what the coins do. If you get all five versions then you can cash it in for ยฃ50

Whitehall have been explicitly mandating decoupling, federation, and API-first for at least fifteen years now - do you have an example of them doing as you suggest here?

Simply read more Sean Carroll and convince yourself time doesn't exist, end of problem!

The bigger problem is both those prices were peaks no-one expected in the first place, loosely caused by some fairly random events in the world. If anything they are one-in-a-gen *sells.*

Motley Fool have almost identical articles up from when a certain share price was around ยฃ16 then ยฃ22, both with a QTWTAIN headline and both just a big ramble about the sector in general (which it isn't beating.) Both in the last six months claiming it's a "once in a generation buy."

I can't shake the feeling that a lot of really bad things could have been avoided by globally moving away from fossil fuels

ah well

Does this work? Twice I've reported people who behaved in ways which I could actually report as criminal, and nothing happened.

Yeah, electrons flowing through a soldering iron...

It's moral relativism *all the way down.*

Why does your new bit sound exactly like a Cryptonomicon bit

Me, I'm just worried about how Qatar sticks out like that and might get knocked off altogether if a tanker bumps into it.

This game is even more fun in sectors where you can point out entire unlawful paragraphs.

Always loved the voice acting on this fella, but I had no idea until just now it was Phil Pope.

The press release is fully bizarre and the explanation is that the Secretary here doesn't give a shit about the rest of the CO generally, never mind GDS specifically. But it doesn't really matter, because OneLogin is a solution, not a requirement, and this exercise is about gathering citizen needs.

Hm, I thought that last sweet potato tasted a bit funny. Why are my joints aching...
