Coronavirus is here to stay now, just like the flu.
By ‘the flu’, do you mean that virus where one entire strain was eradicated by masking and distancing over the winter?
THAT flu? The one with the strain that died out after trivial effort? Do you want to use it as an example of some perennial curse, or are you saying that we can eradicate covid again with similarly trivial effort?
It’s gonna be emacs. You know it, we all fear it, but it’s gonna be emacs and some visicalc-mode shit.
It’s neat how the receipt and storage of push 'notes could easily leverage the short-message idea in the original sendmail spec.
I feel triggered by this entire sub-chat. My comments are half flippant, half heckle, half earnest and actual, half pedantic, half questioning, and no math (clearly).
Point is, I’m gonna offend people and their judgement will be sticky. What if my first impression is for a dickish reminder about mass nouns or a jab against the GqP? I love this part.
Please tell me there’s a tag that says “80% horseshit but occasionally a mild zinger or honest comment” to put up near my name. We all can’t be consistently awesome like FlyingSquid !
Saw the writing on the wall, there.
Wood? You mean Fire’s Favourite Food?
VM’s I still
So each VM has their own iStill? That’s a new $2ooo gadget from apple?
Not sure I’m parsing the apostrophe correctly. They’re still not for pluralization EVER, right?
probably have two last names.
Savage.
Careful. The yaml cult will come after you in a long and formless column, and only self destruct when one of them is a step too far to the left.
Oh God. Please, use anything but Ansible.
So it’s more efficient on time?
Yeah. We joked about the dumb trope where the cheerleader goes down into the dark spooky basement to check on that weird sound with a dodgy flashlight, but then we discovered we’re all apparently the cheerleader.
Wear this face diaper, respect everyone’s personal space and wash your hands properly? We learned this when our TV-nannies showed us MASH and stElsewhere and Scrubs. Too much for us to commit to, though, as if an entire super-nation doesn’t do it every winter.
Yeah. “Who’s in the white House” is the only variable in this equation.
Zoom works for video. I test it a few times a week for a few hours with a few contacts each time.
And a few beer.
It’s a vPub most of the time with some tech thrown in.
I hate to say it, but FB Messenger is reliable for me too : starts well, sounds good, video’s clean, ends cleanly . I need to remind mom how to start that call when it’s with her on her old portal unit, but yeah. Cambridge is the worst thing to happen to good products like M and Portal.
I think I don’t like that Microsoft has access to stored chat messages between kids.
really tall guy from Jack Reacher
That’s Alan Ritchson. I think he can bench a dump truck.
DRMs
Not pluralized. We don’t say “4 managements”
Reconsider hikvision: they were recently dropped as an option for many organizations due to some new data leak, and removed from gov buildings in a number of countries.

“How not knowing how to use commas got me arrested for a double felony”
Sorry, my Finger Eleven album is feeling triggered.
