I wasn’t ready quite yet so I put them in a bag in the freezer.

The bag got so full I had to move to a bigger bag.

My freezer is half full of brown, frozen bananas.

I don’t even like banana bread. Help.

If it was only Spirit I’d assume the gunfire came from inside the plane.

Funny how companies are always “planning” to do the right thing when the media notices them doing the wrong thing for a long time and asking about it.

Oh my god! Elon is Zorg! How did I never see that?!

People say this all the time and it’s nonsense. The amount of delta V required is too large. Just launch them far enough to leave earth’s orbit and after that who cares? Russell’s Teapot becomes Russell’s Billionaire and everything goes back to normal.

Cops. The ones who can’t do drugs as a rule of their employment.

Yeah, I’m sure they have all kinds of useful insights about drugs. I’ll tune into their podcast as soon as I finished the one from the Catholic priests talking about how sex and marriage work.

I think it was Gandhi who said “the best time to punch a nazi is 90 years ago. The second best time is today.”

Better yet, there’s sites that have filters you can set. So you set the wattage filter to 60w and then…. no fucking results. But if you clear the filter, there’s lots of results, because it turns out their entire inventory has a wattage of “n/a”.

Sounds right, and I’m sure worried. They rolled through Kyiv in 3 days because they’re so prepared!

„They hate us for our freedom!“ eh?

I don’t think companies understand that the words “we will make a one time exception for you as a courtesy” is the magic incantation to ensure that customer never returns.

I got that from Staples last week because they did me a real solid by refunding my online order they cancelled instead of going to a store with ID and the invoice and original credit card. Who the fuck goes to a physical store to get a refund on an online order the company themselves cancelled?!

lol. They’re promoting their employee shuttle. Classic Felon.

Did you put regular detergent in a high efficiency washer?

My baby has diapers that say “up to 100% leakproof”. It does not help my confidence in the product.

You need to run it with sudo, duh.

You’re just mad Gender Studies didn’t call you for a second interview.

I bought Terraria when I was really into Minecraft. Didn’t like it at first because the only Minecraft thing is “pick up blocks and crafting”, but once I gave it a fair shake I absolutely loved it.

Fuck, now I have the game music stuck in my head from thinking about the game!

I have one. It’s a fucking lie.

It’s a little worrisome, actually. Professionally written software still needs a human to verify things are correct, consistent, and safe, but the tasks we used to foist off on more junior developers are being increasingly done by AI.

Part of that is fine - offloading minor documentation updates and “trivial” tasks to AI is easy to do and review while remaining productive. But it comes at the expense of the next generation of junior developers being deprived of tasks that are valuable for them to gain experience to work towards a more senior level.

If companies lean too hard into that, we’re going to have serious problems when this generation of developers starts retiring and the next generation is understaffed, underpopulated, and probably underpaid.

I absolutely adored a low budget game called Firewatch. It’s first person and your only contact with another human is through a radio. You’re running away from your life and work for a summer in a fire watch tower in a national park.

The story is nice and the characters are interesting and flawed and relatable.

Buy it on sale and have a fun evening or two with it.
