Be careful with linseed oil as it spontaneously combusts! My friend used it on something and left the rag in the garage, and it literally burnt their house down.
I’m a llama and I eat casserole.

This reminds me of the time in HS when a letter broke off my laptop keyboard and my parents insisted on taking it to the shop for a repair. Turns out they really just wanted the shop to turn over my search history and chat logs. I already knew my parents were nosy so I would always delete it anyway.
One day I came home from school and they said the shop fixed the keyboard but just needed my password to test it and do updates. I said no it’s fine if he can type in anything into the password then obviously the keyboard works, and I already did the updates regularly.
They literally had to beg me for the password and they were like pleasssse just give the shop the password so they can finish their checklist and you can get your computer back, and I was like fine if it’s the only way I’m getting it back. Of course nothing came of it because there was nothing to discover.
Then my parents got the computer back but kept it in the trunk of their car for a week, and I accidentally saw it when we were leaving Old Navy which started a whole “I don’t believe this!” discourse in the mall parking lot.
Moral of the story just talk to your kids instead of spying and lying, because they know and it won’t work!
My company blames me when people fill out forms with junk data just to get to what was already a public link, then I have to go in the CRM every morning and delete a dozen “your moms” and “nunyas”.
In HS trig class I asked the teacher what was the actual logic behind the tan function, and she said “well it’s just programmed into your calculator” and I said I realized that but how did it work, she told me to go ask the AP calc teacher.
The YouTube viewing experience on FF is terrible. I have premium no ads and still manage to break the interface occasionally by clicking a new video or seeking the video playing.
It’s like the movie Sliding Doors, except it’s a pocket door to your parents guest bathroom.
How do these people watch conspiratorial content and miss the fact that pale male European colonialism literally is the conspiracy?
The part about remote work that has caused things to stagnate is that most companies still aren’t setup to hire out of their own state. So it’s not done much to open the gate to opportunities that are a great fit and can be done remotely, because I’m in the wrong state. And there’s still an attitude of “what would somebody in that place possibly know about things here”. The likelihood I will ever be domiciled in the same place as where my perfect job happens to be is super unlikely. This is 95% employers just discriminating based on location because they don’t want to do paperwork or have an open mind and 5% not having the benefit of in-person collaboration.
I started learning how to program when I asked myself how I could setup one web page template and include the content instead of copying the menus and logos on every page. Most people will never be observant enough to consider this might be how most big websites function, or how/why they would develop anything. There’s a tall gate that some people just walk right over.
At 5pm somebody once added an email that had an auto responder to a distribution list that was used in a lot of places. As I’m eating my dinner my phone is getting blown up because everything is suddenly getting spammed with delivery failures because the auto responder was getting blocked from blasting everybody on the distribution list. I was like, I’m sorry you’ve fabricated an urgent situation after hours but I’m gonna eat my chicken now.
Shoot and I thought my 30 second SQL queries were a problem
It’s getting ridiculous though like even gas stations are starting to ask. Like sorry why should I leave a tip to get a Snickers and bottle of water rung up?
Actually I just started doing this and got a 7 DVD changer. Same as what I spend in a month for all these random streaming services.
I feel like EEAAO was somehow engineered to get people to say they like it for no particular reason, it almost feels like they made a movie that would be a social faux pas to say you didn’t like it. But actually I found it super boring and it remains a mystery to me why top rated movies are what they are.
More than full retail most of the time! They’re not even bothering to compete with Walmart or Target anymore on the same products.
Oh and I love when I sort by price and half the results disappear.
It’s no exaggeration sometimes it takes a dozen different how-to blogs and stack overflows to find an example where somebody has exactly what you need and nothing more. So many people add so much fluff and unusual structures that the thing they’re claiming the code does can’t even be found.
Public domain? Creative commons? MIT? BSD? GPL? You mean I’m allowed to use these things without failing?
Also how does it get to 12.5 billion before people do something? Had they intervened with something less severe at 1 billion then there would still be 11.5 billion and a life not lost.
