aw, hell. so no fun "figure out the resonant frequency of the keyboard" then.

@foone does it listen on loopback because I have a funny idea

@foone

I'm feeling lazy; can't I just

`dd bs=11796480 if=/dev/random of=/tmp/babelfloppy`

in a loop for a while? I don't wanna deal with changing disks.

@foone

it's a more ecognomic option

@foone

the Irony of the Pickle Jar hitting hard today?

@foone

that's how you know a bard is doing your string handling

@foone

case in point, lol.

How'd you manage that, tho?

@foone

I expect that's because it's encoded in base-3 - you know how computers get around things that break binaries.

I figured out how to put gender into DNS

@foone

under the Lsd system, tuppence is a sixth of a shilling, and then there's 20 shillings to the pound....

Looks like the action was effective in getting at least minimal attention brought by congress.

Cost a lot less than UHC's spent on lobbying them, too.

This is so exasperatingly awful. None of this was ever necessary. They chose to insist on this as their mechanism to start doing anything at all to fix a situation they full well understood in detail.

Like, do they understand that they have now set terms?

This is how they have chosen to transact negotiations, huh.

And given the rapidity, they already knew what they would have to do.

They could have done this anytime in the last several years, but chose not to until this moment.

My head is trying to compose a bad pun involving "Upton Funk" around a beef packing plant but I can't seem to meet that beat.

So, what, in the upcoming klept mess, the regulatory state will have to be reimplemented by means of a chmod 661?

This view is useful.

"Tolerance" is not an absolute. Refusing to abide by the terms -

e.g. promoting views that deliberately oppose those of tolerance -

constitutes a breach, and thus those actions are not covered.

Easy.

@foone

I mean, you can already do this if you leave "why the hell I'm doing this like this" comments in your codebase; I've thought about how to explain stuff to my future self when documenting in the past

@foone

beats an EU BRIS anyway

Richard Kind is a very very specific character actor and it's always kinda fun seeing him show up in a tv episode.
