When I used to have a cat, at the time I usually slept on my side but I’d switch sides occasionally. She’d be sleeping right on my hip/butt. If I wanted to roll over, I’d just shift a bit first to warn her, then just roll over a bit more slowly than normal and she’d either just jump off while I moved or sometimes just stay on me like a slow rolling log walk. Then, once I’d settled, she would do the same, unless she felt like she was needed at the window or something.

We kinda trained each other… Sorry, cat, but I need to switch sides from my side, claws if I moved too quickly from hers (not because she was pissed at me but to help keep her footing), but it didn’t take long to sync up with each other.

Now I’m wondering if they ever did any full episodes like that, just a disjointed series of references and videos of said reference and no overall episode plot.

Oh you mean unwinding your conversation stack to get back to the original point each tangent was intended to make to their parent topic?

Though my stack is usually corrupted by the time I try to swing back, so it turns into a “now why the fuck was I talking about this again?”

I don’t know if liberaldom could recover from being owned so completely!

I don’t know why anyone treats that as a defense of companies. Sounds more like a problem statement than acceptable reasoning.

Even shareholders are hurt by the mindless drive to maximize profit because they still have to live in a world where everyone is trying to make the most for the least.

Maybe it’s from people suddenly realizing how many clients they have but not realizing that was already priced in and reflected in earnings because those clients didn’t all show up by surprise this quarter.

Or maybe the downage revealed some new clients that hadn’t been priced in.

Though when a tiny portion of the population owns such a large share of the wealth, stock prices are going to do pretty much whatever they want them to do.

That’s disappointing that they have different methods for each physical layer. That should be handled on the link layer using common methods once the physical layer is able to send bits back and forth.

Getting an IP address shouldn’t be affected by whether it will be transmitted using fibre, dsl, cable, a 56k line, a quantum teleporter, signal fires, or carrier pigeons.

I mean, if there’s only three ways, couldn’t routers be set up to just try all three to see which works? Or if they each need specific parameters that aren’t discoverable, have a form that takes all of them but says “just enter what your ISP gives you, the others are optional”. Or set it up such that the client can just get whatever information it needs from the server to communicate with other nodes beyond the server. IPv4 has DHCP. Is there something in the way of applying a similar solution to IPv6?

People who repeat everything you say back to you as a question and expect affirmation are the worst, especially in your line of work where you have to constantly verbally direct people?

No fucking so fucking

Nah, too late, they blew the bridges and tunnels in before he finished saying “Switzerland”.

Though humans are more destructive to their local and remote environments by a faaaaar margin but it is considered a serious crime to go around neutering them.

I wouldn’t say “obviously” because I wouldn’t put it past the GOP to just have some refuse to vote along just to blame their opponents for the fallout, especially when they wanted that fallout in the first place.

Maybe he’s lashing out because someone else turned him into a pterosaur when he wanted to be a dinosaur.

That one that looks like a lizard with a giant sail on its back wasn’t a dinosaur either.

Just for clarity, if every single R votes yes and every D voted no, would the budget pass? Of does it require a larger majority that the GOP doesn’t have?

But have you tried looking into the sci fi or fantasy genres?

Well, with that Atlantic current dying down, Europe might not have to worry about things getting warmer for much longer. Scandinavia especially might get quite a bit colder, like comparable to northern Canada.

Wasn’t that journalist an American citizen?

And I question whether it would even lead to real problems with the current admin or if he’d just call it a good idea on social media and applaud them for dealing with someone for saying such nasty things about them. And unleash riot forces on protestors (or just use it as an excuse to try to ramp things up more).

I don’t think the consequences of that would be a lawsuit. I think they’d go missing and would only be “found” as a mutilated corpse to send a message to anyone else who might have similar ideas. Or, if they are feeling bold enough, they might even do it officially.
