Lol, this isn’t part of my workflow! I just happened to notice it one day and was intrigued.

I have no idea. It was just something I noticed. If I were to guess, it’s just some odd combination of dust, resistance, and the architecture of the cores that causes a hundred little things to mesh together into a whine.

I still listen to the noises. The cpu makes a unique whine when I highlight text.

What’s your favorite dinosaur? Mine was definitely the utah raptor, after reading that one book written in the first person about what it’s life might have been. But then again, big and lethal stuff is coooool, so King T might be a contender.

Well, he doesn’t care that facebook tracks him, and you apparently don’t care that youtube sorry, google tracks you.

One of the few sad things about a transition to a car free(er) environment: no more bucees. They pay well, their bathrooms are great, and their food, though expensive, is great.

Also, you reminded me about the local gas station where I once worked nearby. They had better food, though it was all fried, than any place within a 20 minute drive.

Please stop! The flashbacks, oh god, the flashbacks!

Go watch it, and the show it spawned from. Just be prepared to feel bad because someone yanked it before it finished.

Oh, and show first, chronologically and airing date. Movie has spoilers.

Your cat isn’t name agamemnon, is it? Because good lord, that looks exactly like a cat I know, leash and all.

Aye, anecdotally, there was a school near my childhood home, other side of the street and about .8 miles away. The line of cars used to be about halfway to my house. Now, when I visit family, I see it stretching past my house and it at least stretches a full mile in length now. It’s nuts.

It reminds me of the welded-in-a-barn APC that the cartels in mexico have.

I mean, they are better than dwarves at basketball.

Let me upset you further. Dwarves are just short humans, elves are just skinny humans, and orcs are just green humans. Halflings are human children, and gnomes are mischievous human children. We don’t talk about the aarakocra.

Maybe MY experience is limited, but what manager these days isn’t pulling double duty? They do 3/4 of the job time with duties no different than the people under them, and also have to do all the managing part when possible. This is how it’s been in the public service, retail, and customer service jobs I’ve worked.

If I was in texas, and I was forced to make the choice of whether to uproot everything and leave because of politics, or stay in a shithole…

well, damn, I’d fight back pretty hard against any government that would put me in the position where I would have to make that choice. Abbot and his ilk are going to be screwed from every direction if they keep pushing this poison.

I know that where I live, a doctor can do something that makes the driver’s license folks have to hold a hearing on the individual. As far as I know, it’s almost never done because the doctor is going to 1.) be sued, and 2.) be dragged through the mud by the dipshit and nearly every single person who knows the dipshit. For most, it’s just not worth it.

<.<

… I like dots.

Meh. My partner reads a book all the time at night, and it’s not such a big deal. Some cars are worse than others, and some people completely overreact.

I’ve never tried shining a black light on mucus. Isn’t it the PSA that glows in UV light for semen traces? There shouldn’t be any of that in mucus.

Look, you must remember: ear sex isn’t real sex.
