The Beaverton is great.

My last two offices had showers. No communal room, but the thing I remember most about the last one is the hot water being pumped from the furnaces of hell itself. It took so long go get there, and was so hot once it did I can't think of any other explanation.

Oh, yeah, Valve and Proton are to thank. I'm just saying Microsoft's not blocking Proton like Epic and a few others seem to be. I can appreciate the stance of "We won't help you, but we won't stop you either. Good luck" that I think MS is taking with this.

Even Microsoft doesn't seem to be actively preventing their games from running on Linux. Fuck Sweeney.

Learning that companies are doing this so you can’t install competitor’s games

Wait, wat? I hadn't heard this explanation. I cynically thought it before, but I've never seen it suggested by anyone other than me.

Saskatchewan too, 28 October.

Looks like what happens when a house hippo grows up.

Charged. Not convicted. He didn't get bail, so he's in jail waiting for trial.

0..16 if you add fingertips.

I once caught gay from a used marijuana needle. Never again. Took a lot of prayer and fasting to make that go away. Ban it. Ban it all!

(/s, of course. Shouldn't be necessary but this is the internet....)

People think of the Celtic languages originated in Western Europe, but in reality the Celtic tribes were driven West by invading Germanic tribes. Looks like Albanian just happened to survive.

The ones I've seen are extruded plastic shaped that way.

With a high enough mains voltage absolutely.

A few friends and I are planning a 90s lan. Simple rules like no games published after 2001-08-23, no internet, only self-hosted servers, and all shit talking must be out loud. Also shit talking must be kid safe since we're all old and have kids old enough to be competent but young enough we don't want to teach them the true art of shit talking.

A horse can have a painful bite, but 99.7% of the time their bite means "please fuck off".

If they want to make you fuck off after not heeding their warnings, they'll use their hooves.

I tend to get new soccer balls only when there's a world cup. I just buy the current world cup replica. My favourites are South Africa and Qatar.

Table.. top.. dishwasher? What sorcery is this?

It's the lead lining.

I'm on Ubuntu because work too. I really hope nobody gets the idea to do really silly things like enforce Gnome or something. Wouldn't put it past them.

Sway on Arch master race?
