  • By no means do I want to appear pedantic, but isn't it "You scream, I scream, we all scream for ice cream!"?

    That's how I learnt it forever ago, so the way you folks are saying it sounds...well, weird. lol

  • It could be "Xitter" Pronounced "Shitter" and the hashtag is now a fashtag.

    Copied from elsewhere...I am not original.

  • As an aside, I am loving SponserBlock. I no longer have to reach for the mouse to click ahead to the end of the ad.

  • It is my understanding that it is common in NZ/AUS to leave the “that” out which is implied.

  • Yes, Sopuli seems like a main server. Love it.

  • Different places have different codes. No pan on ours either.

  • Another comment here says the lower element of this unit has a flaw. Might look into that.

  • Step 1: Be attractive!

  • I was not alive then either and read it decades after it was written. Honestly, I think having to use a spoiler tag for a story written almost 80 years ago is not necessary.

  • Thanks. After 50+ years I did not think it would be a spoiler.

  • Yes, it was The Mule that introduced the anomaly.

  • Couldn’t finish the year, then they enlisted.

    Sounds like the system the right would like to institute and they'd be okay with this outcome.

  • Yes, since 2019, it is now much easier to identify the a$$holes. They are quite unabashed about it and I've even seen stickers on the bro-dozers mentioning the a$$hole club. What's the goal here? Instant tribal identification? Well, I guess it works and I can avoid you.

  • I love using cash. I feel like I am thwarting The System since it keeps pressuring me to use credit cards or some other form of electronic currency. I mean I use some of those too when necessary, but I use cash whenever possible.

  • Very similar story. Left Digg during the exodus, loved reddit for a while using BaconReader. Unknowingly the Outrage machine was doing a number on me and once I left last month, I felt a large weight lifted. Quality of conversations are greatly improved, but I've noticed some howling monkeys here too. Far fewer though.

    I have noticed I've split my time to several instances as well as using Tildes, BBC and a variety of other sources to fill the space reddit used to do as I had it curated over a dozen years. Hard to flesh that out in a month.

  • Start with construction sand. The cartels are already moving in on that stuff. ;)

  • One of our data centers uses a building with a man made "lake" in it. They blow the air across the water and use that air to cool the building and its systems. Seems to work fine.
