Ngl my partner put a dishwasher pod on the counter the other day and I genuinely thought it was candy for an uncomfortably long second or so.

They murder so, so many birds.

If someone drive a truck full of money up to my house, I’d be hard pressed to say no. See Notch and Minecraft.

Doesn’t show charge cycles for me, sadly. Samsung A52

Amen. About the only thing that unites Quebec with the rest of Canada is a mutual distaste for the French.

The Anglo-Dutch wars. William of Orange landed troops in London in 1688 and took the throne with Mary II. It’s more complicated than that, but it was a whole Thing. Charles II died, leaving James II in charge, but Catholicism was on the way out, and conveniently, William of Orange, a Protestant, was married to Mary II.

The undercurrent of anti-Dutch sentiment started back then still has remnants in the language. See “going Dutch” “Dutch courage” “Dutch treat” “Dutch uncle”. :)

I’m mostly teasing. It’s more funny than serious.

Have to capture the Dutch-Canadian.

Fun game. Hmm. Poutine van der Windmill.

Nobody does anti Dutch racism quite like the English. Comes of them being conquered by William of Orange back in the day.

It’s been a while, so probably new to me. Yay.

I gotta check if Laid Back Camp has a new series!

Yeah I don’t buy 400m either.

Speaking from a university perspective - we’ve been scaling back our computer labs a fair bit, as there’s a lot of people with personal laptops and tablets now. Almost half our former workstations are now eliminated or BYOD.

So a lot of Windows machines are just gone.

I’d check for native species of clover, which is invasive in most of Canada.

Do you run a BBS?

It’s great for testing a site when you’re not sure whether the issue is because you’re logged in or there’s some cached data.

Punch buggy. No punch backs.

FVO readable for future me, it’s not so bad. I don’t have to worry about other people so much. :)

Sure. Nothing stopping you writing readable well commented perl. Just avoid some of the more terse statements. It can be a challenge though.

Shrug. If you don’t like Perl, don’t use it.

It certainly has its issues. I find that the things people have trouble with are the things I tend to like about it. Of course, reading it later is a problem sometimes. :)

Write only language!

I still reach for it sometimes.

heheh. I wasn’t really making an argument though
