Ever hear the joke “why is 6 afraid of 7? Because 7 ate/8 9”? Well kids these days are really into that joke to the point that they will go crazy if you just mention 6 and 7.

I’ve was at a restaurant once where I ordered Coke and they brought me Pepsi. I noticed immediately and had to get something else. I hate the taste of Pepsi.

I actually read the link and they mention QUIC

there is a notion that HTTP/3 and QUIC will do away with the 14kB rule — this is not true. QUIC recommends the same 14kB rule.

Same here. French bread is weirdly hard to make.

I’ve used 1/1/70 since it’s the unix epoc, what’s 1/1/84?

Okay, so it does mean “1/10th of”. If words still had meaning then “ten times less” would mean “we thought we had 10 but we actually have -90”.

Honest question, does “10 times less” mean 1/10th? It makes no sense to me mathematically.

Janet changed her mind real quick when Brad wasn’t there.

Depending on what the hell “ambient” means in this context that one might be okay. The other two though, eww.

Add a scene where he is supposed to play at a fancy restaurant but they won’t let him eat there first. So interested he goes to a black bar and ends up playing with the heavy metal house band instead.

Dear Lord, that’s an actual quote.

He also rollerblades on power lines.

I got a second party dock for the switch one back in pandemic times because my son wanted to hang out with me while I worked. The dock I got didn’t block the front so he could play it while it charged.

People were being banned for up voting posts that got removed.

You are calling someone else uneducated because they know more than you? WTF

FFMPG/Linux, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, FFMPG plus Linux.

Glad people care this time, pure VPN did exactly the same thing except without the buyout. 5 years into a lifetime plan they said, “sorry, your account is closed”. They were offering 5 year plans for less when I got the lifetime one. They didn’t care and told me to complain to slashDot because that’s where I bought it.

I was 18 in 1999, there wasn’t that much actual panic. At the time people already generally knew the media was overreacting.

There was a pretty awesome shoe commercial a few minutes after midnight. It had a guy jogging down the street, presumably on Jan 1st, while in the background ATMs are spewing cash, planes are falling out of the sky, traffic lights are flashing randomly, and other chaos. Then it had a tag about new years resolutions. That commercial made it all worth it
