This came out in the wake of a different story, where Cobb County put stickers in the biology textbooks that warned that "evolution is just a theory." So yes, while satire, it's not as big of a stretch as it seems twenty (?!?) years later.

Damn I feel old.

As a bonus, I found a higher res version of the base image while trying to jog my memory.

This is something that even larger corps struggle with. My old company would buy some other company, lay off a bunch of people, others would quit, and then it was shocked Pikachu faces all around when That One Thing stopped working in an office they turned into a ghost town and, well, no, nobody was going to be there until Monday morning to power cycle etc. True lights out/OOB reachability is WORK. And there's always going to be a SPOF somewhere that requires hands on-site.

Do what you can, when you can. And thank you for all that y'all have done so far.

I don't even know how many MP3s you can store with 400 qubits.

That's ridiculous. Nobody knows how long a gallon is.

Thanks for the heads up, try not to stress too much.

That was my thought as well.

The CTO at my last job was pulling down millions a year despite barely knowing anything about anything, and being little more than a glorified bully. He got there via project management, after all.

I didn't think I'd get to use this one more than once.

Our washer died a couple of months ago so we had to hit the laundromat for awhile. Brought our own detergent of course, but we also got the dregs of whatever the last dozen or so people poured into the dispenser. It was like histamine roulette that landed on 00 suspiciously often.

 
 

Posting this as I was prompted by a memory in !metal@lemmy.world . 08th Team is one of my favorite Gundam shows, and Nightwish is one of my favorite bands. I think the editing here is top notch.

Hard to believe this came out ~20 years ago. Rubyeye, if you're still out there, cheers.

Side note: Do Not Press R.

 

On a related note, I have successfully gotten my nephew into Gundam... but his 14 year old Transformers-obsessed brain simply refuses to accept that Optimus would get urfed by even a GM beam spray pistol, let alone a newtype snipe.

 
 
 

A few things in this one I hadn't seen yet. Spoilers (marked) for endgame at the end of the vid.

 
 

TotK speedrunner Player 5 goes over the differences in game versions in terms of glitch accessibility and usefulness. Kind of dry, but informative.

Nothing terribly exciting this week IMO. I like the color scheme of the First Lot RG Nu. Probably not enough to buy it though.
