What’s the frequency, Kenneth?

How you all doing rn?

We don’t call it ‘doing’, as it’s a little sexist. And stop asking for advice how to hit on nurses: they’re busy enough.

80’s

'80s

Yes, technically it’s still on the tiny screen of your phone with a really bad ux to make it go, sure. But you see how ‘went away’ is both true for web and effectively true for phone app? You do see that, right?

Waterfall. Agile is a mess.

slangs

Nota bene: ‘slang’, like ‘mail’ and ‘e-mail’ and other ‘mass’ nouns, doesn’t get an ‘s’ when talking about groups of more than one.

Lake Louise Village […] Western Canada

You mean MID-Western Canada. Western Canada is a little bit to the left.

pour tequila in sink

Nurrr. Had some raicilla here and it was definitely not sink-bait. I hate tequila, but this was insane.

I caught some Icelandic rap the other night on that global radio website and now I need to find it. I caught some Algerian rap - rap again, even though it’s usually not my thing - a few months back, too, and it was awesome.

Dragostei din tei(sp) or so, by Romanians O-Zone?

That is some seriously addictive stuff. Good call.

Old VWs just had a mark on the speedo telling you what gear to be in. So you kinda shift around the marker. So easy.

Abdication is both quick and brutal.

It’s the first time I hear systemd […] were spelling the death of […] linux

Where’ve you been? We’ve been expressing concern about its badly-built badly-architected metastatic creep for a decade of dwindling choice and competition as it slowly forced out dissent and clued concern.

Now it’s eaten autofs, DNS, cron, NTPd, and replaced them with shitty clones, and has carefully eroded our ability to recover from this mess.

Man got married on a plantation

Aren’t former plantations now just pretty places to take wedding shots? When I worked picking grapes, the winery was ALWAYS hosting weddings.

gave rich prick vibes.

psst. Batman was often portrayed as a rich prick.

anytime

‘any time’, here, my dude.

I like Will Smith.

My former peer talks about Will Smith a lot. I was working in a city where they film a lot of stuff, and Will would travel before filming started. He’d come in, book a bit of the mayor’s time, and thank him for letting them film. He’d waste his day touring the city and seeing local groups as a drop-in guest, and then bail. The guy really worked on his image and PR and seemed to come off as generally a good guy … before.

System service managers like systemd, OpenRC, runit, or SysVinit often come down to user preference.

And coding best-practice. And a philosophy borne of bad luck and bad software that aims to resist monoculture.

But that lennart kid is cool for a Microsoft employee.

Not like in my case. I joke that Stockholm Syndrome takes time ;-)
