I-I... I didn't get any presents??? why? (╥﹏╥)
Just finished The Dark Forest... feeling some real dread for the future of mankind right now. I suppose it doesn't change anything for me immediately, but man everyone who lives after me is fucked
It is the mark of an educated mind to anticipate when the editors of the Wikipedia article didn't actually comprehend their cited sources.
the uncontrollable urge to stab people who begin a statement with "yeah nah"
aging furries who can afford a cheap monthly bill as a pillar of keeping the old school Internet online is going to fuck up the history books so bad

Japanese corporations are also curiously dedicated to keeping up very old web pages for products no longer being sold or aired online.
Wikipedia desperately needs a 'women in red' type campaign for all types of religious academics, especially on less popular religions where it is obvious a lot of the information came from laypeople
Surprisingly few Soviet Santa images on the Ded Moroz page--there should be more, considering there are lots out there in the public domain.
Also, if Santa not real, then why flying next to Soviet spacecraft all the time? Checkmate, Arianists.
Happy 1993 everyone!
Buckle up, because the next 30 years are going to be real shitty!
Now THAT'S what DQN is all about! (Gesturing at nothing in particular)
Not sure what convinced so many people that unreal blue skin is a kink, but I'm afflicted with this condition as well and it might be the least explainable one I got.
Reverse version of It's a Wonderful Life: a newlywed couple are about to start trying to conceive for a baby. An angel appears to the wife and shows her what unspeakable horrors her children will have to live through, culminating in her killing her husband and herself to prevent it.
I caved and ended up buying eighty bucks worth of used books when I still haven't finished half of what I bought last time.
Its over, I wish I could read from scanned PDFs without wanting to gouge my eyes out and just get rid of all my physical copies and have no urge to buy more.
Ian Terence Botham, Baron Botham, OBE (born 24 November 1955) is an English cricket commentator, member of the House of Lords, a former cricketer who has been chairman of Durham County Cricket Club since 2017 and charity fundraiser. Hailed as one of the greatest all-rounders in the history of the game,[2] Botham represented England in both Test and One-Day International cricket.
He played most of his first-class cricket for Somerset, at other times competing for Worcestershire, Durham and Queensland. He was an aggressive right-handed batsman and, as a right-arm fast-medium bowler, was noted for his swing bowling. He generally fielded close to the wicket, predominantly in the slips. In Test cricket, Botham scored 14 centuries with a highest score of 208, and from 1986 to 1988 held the world record for the most Test wickets until overtaken by fellow all-rounder Sir Richard Hadlee. He took five wickets in an innings 27 times, and 10 wickets in a match four times. In 1980, he became the second player in Test history to complete the "match double" of scoring 100 runs and taking 10 wickets in the same match. On the occasion of England's 1000th Test in August 2018, he was named in the country's greatest Test XI by the ECB.[3]
Botham has at times been involved in controversies, including a highly publicised court case involving rival all-rounder Imran Khan and an ongoing dispute with the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB).

A lot has been made over the popularization and promotion of secularized Asian religious practices as "self-care" because of the popularity and material efficacy of meditation, but I think pushing a secularized TCM is a step too far.
If you do not believe in Qi and meridians, there is no reason to try it, especially as a lot of self-care manuals recommend acupuncture for some reason. I am curious if there is some sort of racket (e.g. the people publishing these articles and books are invested in TCM and meditation instructors) going on here.
10% of why my programming career ended: git just rolls off my brain like water off a duck's back.
Pulling TAOCP off the shelf for a tape memory allocation puzzle with no direct applicability to anything this century other than maybe some cache line bullshit? I was your guy for that.
git commit? Oh I guarantee you I will fuck a shit up, every time.
>>958,959
It's understandably impossible to have a programming career without knowing git, or other VCSes. Even in darker times there was CVS, or Perforce, or SourceSafe, or RCS, or some bullshit like that.

it's funny still seeing all the permutations of "i'm gay and my dick is small" being posted here years later after my twitter mutual with like 70 followers randomly sent it to me in a dm and i thought it was funny enough to post in the comments thread

It's a very evocative phrase, and one many of us can relate to.
It's got a certain rhythm to it, very much like 七五調

Being Albanian is like being given a gift from God.
An advanced super race, with their own language, customs, culture, traditions and a rich history. A people who stand strong in the face of imperialism and West-European stupidity. Strong economy, strong army, strong nation, the proud Shqipëtar stands armed and ready to defend his pure nation from the wraths of sub-human, Bosnians, Serbs, Croatians, and other sub-human, animalistic, Slavic, animals. Oh how I thank God that I was born a handsome, tall, perfect Albanian warrior.
With dual histories, one from the great Ottoman warriors, discoverers, inventors, and intellectuals and another from the grandeur of the Albanian masters of Eastern-Europe I can proudly stand tall and say I am proud to be Albanian, and I will love my land until the very last day.
Long live Albania.
That's nice, but please watch out for hobos.

You cannot convince me Gordon Liddy was a real guy who actually existed, that biography is clearly fictional.

I refuse to install corean fonts on principal so the default name here now has squares with the codepoint hex in it.

Why not under the principal, or over the principal? What if he wants those fonts? Why deny him his writeful letters?
