I’m sick of doing overtime continually because the equipment continually fails to perform. I don’t care if there’s a blank check for it, because frankly, I’d rather not live in a control room that reeks of H2S and other scents because you’re too cheap to replace the carbon filters in the air handling system.

Either that or I’ll just tell you to imagine life without being able to use your sink, shower toilet, dishwasher, etc.

Because when sewer treatment plants break, the effects are a lot more than you care to think about on the surface. I know it’s gross, but it’s reality. The things you wash down the drain and flush have to go somewhere before they end up back in our waterways.

*protoss voice* not enough spoons

Shaming people for the instances they use can be problematic, but the megalithic instances are poison to the network and the mastodon project at a fundamental level and I have no idea how to resolve this collision.

Myspace loses user uploaded music from between 2003 and 2015 due to lack of backups https://www.grahamcluley.com/myspace-loses-music/ (HT @gcluley)

Considering at one point Myspace was *the* most popular place for bands to put music, that's a lot of culture lost

The entirety of my home decorating sense is derived from Zelda dungeons.

Thankfully for any real estate people, I do not have access to a giant fish. Not so thankfully for real estate people, there is a series of complicated puzzles needed to access the kitchen.

The only buzzterm stupider than 'container native' is 'cloud native'.

Any country's attempt to tackle disinformation must carefully avoid undercutting the deep connection between democracy and free expression.

The next person who tells me with a straight face that the USPS is an example for what a 'nationalized company' should be, should be drafted into service as a letter carrier for six months under the current system

Enjoy your union not giving a shit about you and management turning you into a lifeless husk! :D

Project OpenWorm is an open science endeavor to fully simulate a simple virtual organism (the worm 𝘊𝘢𝘦𝘯𝘰𝘳𝘩𝘢𝘣𝘥𝘪𝘵𝘪𝘴 𝘦𝘭𝘦𝘨𝘢𝘯𝘴) at the cellular level, in its entirety.

The goal is to simulate every of the 959 cells of the worm, but it must start with simulating the 302 neurons and 95 muscle cells.

(Of course you know Webster's Twelfth dictionary published in 2341 will give 'Chocolate flavored' as the primary definition of 'decadent' with a note mentioning 'decaying, deteriorating' as a mostly forgotten, archaic usage.)

Few games are so influential, even in the year 2019 standard TPC/UPD ports are still reserved for it

Also, if you're the member of some marginalized group and you aren't very political, or sincerely believe the evidence available to you suggests socialism, communism, Georgism, radical capitalism, social democracy, New Deal style mixed economy, anarchism, delegative democracy, or absolute rule by a monarch and/or computer is the best way to organize a system, you're still marginalized and you're /of course/ valid. For many of these combinations I think you're also /wrong/, but anyone who wants to convince you you're wrong will have to give you reasons. And no your status and validity as your own identity is not 'suspended' until they manage to convince you and you come around.

Anyone who tries to police you out of your own identity and yell that "You're not welcome!" can shut it, lay off the policeman in their heart, and quit making already marginalized people feel even more marginalized and panicked. Safety is a valid concern, but not everything done in the name of safety is legitimate (I mean, you've seen the US 'justice' system, right?)
