This post reminds me of a friend of mine who likes a song so much, he will only listen to it twice a year, once on New Year’s and once on his birthday. He says each time is like the first time because “the pathways stay fresh”. He’s been consistent for at least 7 years.

If you’re curious: Toccata - OVERWERK

He tried so hard to save Artax… 😭

Why would they need to date anyway? That’s just questioning God’s Plan for them.

New Hampshire?

You have to open with “Chugga Chugga Choo Choo, we’re all gonna run a train on you!” Or it’s just a plain ole gangbang.

Engineering is engineering. You design it, you build it, you test it. Engineering. We shouldn’t gatekeep words.

With that said, I recognize that certain engineering disciplines have overlap with public safety, and should come with some qualifications to back it up.

It’s the Vanilla for me. Silky smoooooth people bits!

Probably not as bad as you’re thinking, he’s actually been waiting for this moment for years.

After spending a few minutes mulling it over, I’ve realized the only right move is for me to sell the cube to someone more clever than myself.

Can I only teleport back to where I teleported in from, or can I teleport out of the cube to anywhere I want?

Why didn’t you stick with 3% peroxide to clean it, out of curiosity? Just none available, or am I the only crazy person who does this from time to time?

Ahh, I think I got you. So, ideally, ‘followed’ content wouldn’t trigger recent activity within the ‘followers’ community? Is that the idea?

I think the biggest issue for me with your proposal is any time a single pancake post is made, four communities now show recent activity and are likely to all show on everyone’s main feed.

Latency plays a big role in throughput. If one download target was ‘closer’, i.e. lower latency, it will be able to scale the windowsize higher, therefore allowing more data to flow through for a given connection. Imagine network packets are envelopes and data is paper. Not all envelopes can carry the same amount of paper for a given connection, and the more paper you stuff in your envelope, the faster the transfer completes.

Yeah, if you use your own password cipher, you never have to memorize a password again. Just derive it based on some common input value, like the company name or url. Makes password rotation tricky, though, and it’s a pain when a website won’t allow a special character you generally use, creating “one offs” that are hard to track.

Fwiw, most modern thermostats have an emergency failsafe temp setting that will always turn the heater on when reached, even if inadvertently set lower by mistake. Saved my bacon in a rental once.

I hope I don’t get flayed for saying this, but I actually had this problem on Windows once, and it turned out to be thermal throttling of the CPU. I was going from 4+ghz to around 200mhz and then it would shoot back to normal. Just needed a thorough cleaning of the fans and ducting.

Thought it was worth mentioning on the off chance it might help someone.

Don’t worry, we’ll invent a type of plastic immune to this bacteria and start the whole process anew!

As an aside, ‘plastic eating bacteria’ have been ‘discovered’ countless times over the past several decades.

Is that Stowe we’re seeing in the distance?

They are individual copies of the Lemmyverse that all sync content with each other. That’s the ‘federation’ part. Some of them are weird and scary places, friend.
