They gave him a peace prize. The FIFA Peace Prize smh
Maybe we should have some people from SI give him something, so that the US will ditch those stupid units. He’s got a peace prize and a jet, so something else… How about a gold helicopter with AI in it? We could have the tail rotor fitted with LEDs some it’ll spell out TRUMP when flying. If we better make it good enough, maybe he’ll have ICE pickup anybody using feet or fahrenheit.
And then, being the law abiding citizen, I tried to relinquish my explosive fluids… Turns out they didn’t mean diarrhea. I think I made several lists that day, not sure which though.
I can do you one even better. I am full time employed, I train IT supporters. Which means, that my job is to enable people to waste their time, in order to make you be able to waste yours. Just taking another trip round the wast-o-time-ception merry-go-round: my school employs IT staff as well.
Life is hard, pointless, and full of injustice. But at least in the end you get to die a meaningless death while alone and afraid.
This got dark, remember that you need to pretend to be happy again come Monday morning. Otherwise starvation will get you before the tumor, that you didn’t know you were to going to get 5 years before “retirement”. Here’s a little inspiration “Pretend You’re Happy” by Jay Forman recorded in the luxury of what appears to be a 2000s 3 door citroën saxo https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=PeCrnbJHJeY
If I didn’t have a mortgage, kids, and obligations, then I might just be walking the earth myself.
And here I was thinking this was about emacs and lisp. Yougster complaining about not knowing how to quit Vi smh they have never experienced the horrors of emacs
Looking at this map and its indecipherable piecharts made me go “huh most of the capitals are actually livable” … then I compared them with the only place where I have an idea of the rent, Copenhagen, and WTF?
I wouldn’t even move to Copenhagen, how the fuck are y’all affording these other prices? Undisclosed income? WTF?!?
Why is the stone groove on the curved side of the avocado? Am I wrong in thinking the groove left behind the stone should be on a flat surface?
Nope, but she might if the offer in the table with Trump was “resign now so we can have a special election and you don’t have a voice, or we’ll destroy you so hard that you’ll never even win an election for town cryer of Bumfuck, Arizona”
Or maybe whoever pressured MTG actually threatened physical damage like “you know Marge, you have seemed more and more erratic lately, even for a Jewish space laser weirdo. You better resign now so you don’t risk committing suicide”
I don’t think that any language is generally worse for emotions than others.
Ruling something out though, without having anything but your own opinions to justify it, seems like scientific misconduct.
But in writing that, I had to search my vocabulary for 15 seconds for “opinion”, and I spend considerably longer to translate “scientific misconduct” without being satisfied.
So I will maintain my hypothesis that speaking a second language, adds an emotional shield by distancing the speaker.
Jokes on you, they’re hiring for “World’s sexiest Lemmy user”
I found myself writing an email to a Norwegian recipient the other day. I wrote in English, despite Danish and Norwegian bokmål being >95% the same.
It waters out our native languages when we do this, and it is, as you say, in favour of bad English. I find even the most English proficient Danish teens lacking in their vocabulary. Pronunciation is good, but they can express themselves.
I’ve given it a fair bit of thought. I think that the kids choose English, because it’s emotionally distancing. Saying something in English doesn’t carry the same weight, as using their mother’s tongue. Simply because they don’t feel the words the same. Occasionally I will catch myself using English for my internal dialogue, especially when I’m thinking about something that causes me emotional distress.
Is this officially the first bad thing to happen to Iceland that isn’t attributed to Denmark? I knew AI was coming to takes all of our jobs, but this is some black mirror level stuff.
And while you’re at it, put handles on pudding cups so I can steer and hold my snack. I need my right hand for the spoon and scrolling Youtube,
I thought the updated standard was adjusted for daylight savings time, making it 2100 and 0300.
Nebula as well
Only because Arch Linux was too much of a hassle
I didn’t notice the USB port on the right, I was so focused on the shitty alignments. Like how can you fuck up only some of the 'S’s? I get that the ports are a result of the outline of the parts soldered to the board. And getting the HDMI vertically centered, or having the single USB port not turned 180°, would require both effort and a bit pricier BOM … But! The engraving? It’s the one thing that’s not relying on external factors.
I teach various certification exams, from what I’ve seen so far, you shouldn’t need to worry. Not if the exams are administered properly that is.
That’s no ballroom
Imagine any European suggesting that states seceding from the union be rewarded and the rest punished. It would be so bizarre.
