Do you ever miss a television show? You know the serials that play out in episode after wonderful episode?
Which ones do you miss the most?
I will never understand this attitude.
If I post about a problem, and you know how to easily solve it... *Please* give me that advice.
Why some people prefer to live in misery and pity instead of learning and improving their lives baffles me.
Tried it. The users insisted on plugging the computer back in the moment I left the room.
If I was an IT person I would simply turn off the stuff that let you hack computer
Oh no! The humanity!
But seriously, it's crazy that our federal mail system is this cheap. It may not be perfect, but it's one area of our government that seems to work very well most of the time, and we should recognize that.
#USPS seeks to hike the price of first-class mail stamps to 68 centss, effective Jan. 21st. https://about.usps.com/newsroom/national-releases/2023/...
Also, apparently the House Minority Leader refuses to take emails from anyone who doesn't live in his district. What a dick.
Wait, an elected representative wrote an opinion piece about our legislative future for a for-profit newspaper and now if I want to know what he's ...

25 years ago today (10/6), Matthew Shepard was beaten and left for dead — tied to a fence in Wyoming. The only part of his face not covered in blood was two white lines running down his cheeks from where his tears ran dry. His death ignited a fight for equality. Never forget. Rest in Power Matthew. #RememberingMatthew #ShepardLegacy #TearsOfInjustice #EndHateCrimes

“America should be having a robust, life-or-death conversation—when TV’s cable talkfest signs on at 6 a.m. until the last words at midnight, on the floors of the House and Senate, in newspaper editorial boards and down at the barber shop and in Starbucks—about whether we…want to end this country’s 247-year uneven experiment in democracy…whether one man should have the power to override elections, jail his enemies, free his friends, eviscerate federal agencies.” Will Bunch https://www.inquirer.com/opinion/red-caesar-right-american-dictatorship-20231005.html
#Disney didn't need to kill all those #lemmings to try to capture footage of them shuffling mindlessly off a cliff.
They could have just filmed modern #journalists instead.

A friend of mine offered to cut down my red maple tree when it died but he saved a piece of the trunk and had this bowl made for me. He knew that I was really sad about losing the tree because I planted it myself 32 years ago. ❤️
Isn't it weird how "yesterday" means "exactly one day ago" but "yesteryear" means "an indeterminate number of years ago" and there's no such thing as yestermonth, yesterweek, or yesterhour?

I've been looking at this thinking maybe we should do the same with API docs, illustrate the worst possible way to go about it just to trigger some gut checks.

One of my favourite (and oh so simple) hacker tricks is to abuse JSON support in APIs and pass TRUE instead of the actual API key. If the code does loose comparison, you don't need the key! 😎 😈 🍿

Having trouble logging into Discord, and this was their support's response:
"Just to be sure, could you double-check to see if you’ve accidentally created a new account?"
Look, if you're going to hook up your customer support to a robot, don't bother. Just put a big image of a middle finger on your customer support page. You'll piss off fewer customers.
I was a little nervous going in, but today I ACED my Private Pilot Airplane written test from the FAA with a 92%!!
It occurs to me that a rough way to measure a person's financial privilege is to ask them if they know what "passive income" is.
Those without financial privilege tend to lose something for every monetary gain (time, effort, property, etc).
Whereas those with financial privilege are more likely to gain additional money for essentially just having money.

Patrick McHenry (R-N.C.) seems like a dick.
