  • Maybe Anakin just needed a biology lesson

  • Same with Puffins. Cute little flying penguins that happily catch worms in their beak, only to be robbed in mid-air by hawks and other birds of prey.

    How did they survive this long? They're good at breeding, and do well in times of abundance....

  • Exactly, and that thousand-mile stare and blank expression are conductive to a being an effective drone in the unyielding workforce we call progress

  • It did get disney cutsified the last season, but the last few episodes have been making GTA SA PS2 gangsta references (and surprisingly not cringe!) and has been doing the joke layering that the Conan O'Brien era was famous for.

    It's not just setup -> punchline any more, the last few episodes have been doing setup -> small punchline -> setup -> bigger punchline -> setup for later punchline all in the same scene.

    And they're not screw-the-audience jokes or random references (though there are some), it's all in-universe humour. Check out the last episode, it was genuinely well-written and laugh-out-loud funny

  • "The pain he gave you is wonderful and you thank him for it"

    Relevant David Firth

  • On the plus side, Kelly is looking great and clearly has a sustainable business model for the foreseeable future

  • Xorg.conf was genuinely something I never quite grokked.

    I mean, I get it, it's a conf file for Xorg... but in practice, either your X11 worked out of the box, or it just didn't, and no manner of fiddling with the config and restarting the server would save it.

    You could install other drivers and blacklist others, and that would get it to work, but touching the Xorg config file itself and expecting different results was like trying to squeeze blood out of a stone.

  • Correct

  • Webex if someone has a gun to your head.

    For real.

  • Yeah. Plus sleeping with their pet human probably didn't do you any favours

  • In the absence of information I'm going to go ahead and suggest that they get the bacteria by scraping their teeth along tree bark until the right bacteria gets picked up

  • The Gunslinger by Steven King.

    He wrote some dark and towerry other books, but they're unrelated fan fiction

  • really nice! I guess it's a tiling window manager that arranges desktop icons too?

    Yellow bars for inputs/dialogs, Blue for general popups(?), orange for errors and file managers, and white for tabbed windows/browsers.

  • car airbags are now filled with ludicrous amounts of fire-suppressor foam

  • Relevant Two Ronnies - Hieroglyphics sketch:

  • And now let there be ant lions

  • Semd me your poops. The good ones.

  • it's been 2 hours...

  • This completely. You cant end capitalism with that kind of money, but you can provide cheap or free alternatives to basic needs to force the price-gouging vendors to actually compete for once and align their businesses better with the consumer.
