If you have a better way of generating videos of absurdly obese Olympic divers doing the bomb from a crane, I’d love to hear it.

Way ahead of you Luddites

first link died for some reason, probably not enough RAM

Goodness, how am I supposed to store and stream more entertainment than I could watch in a lifetime now?

The short days in winter. Get up in the dark, watch the beautiful six hours of sunlight through a grimy office window, go home in the dark, damp, cold soggy rainy windy weather that passes for winter these days.

Computers are too powerful and too cheap. Bring back COBOL, painfully expensive CPU time, and some sort of basic knowledge of what’s actually going on.

Pain for everyone!

But the stories of Russians under my bed stealing my washing machine’s CPU are totally real.

Well, at least Germany has currywurst and alcohol at the dollar store.

Good, do Fark next.

I thought you were going to say “by wearing a kilt”.

Or… we could learn to code software so the average mouse driver doesn’t require a gig of free RAM, 10 gigs of swap space, and 15 CPU cores?

Just a thought.

So how am I supposed to get pictures of absurdly obese gaily dancing IT nerds in kilts now!?

Drahma and Greg was a fun show

Well if you know of a better way to generate pictures of comically obese bearded men gayly dancing, I’d love to hear it.

Just pretend it’s there. Then you can go back to sleep and not worry too much about anything beyond your visual range. It sounds like that would be best for you and your… capabilities.

Only a Russian would write a sentence with no punctuation. Gotcha!

Whatever, Ivan. Working overtime at the Siberian Disinformation Mine this weekend? Aiming for that bonus case of potatoes comrade?

Am I being modded down by all the Russia Russia Russia soap opera addicts who thought knew (because everyone knows) Vladimir Putin himself cut the fibers with his personal favorite potato peeler?

My goodness, the poor AI will see all the trash I order on Aliexpress and read all the endless carrier updates as the box gets scanned in and out of every warehouse and truck?

It’s gonna start thinking I’m some kind of shut-in hoarder!

Mod me down all you want, I know these “outages” are all orchestrated by powerful state actors who are also weak and backwards. Blaming "Rus"t is as obvious as it gets, next they’ll tell us the guy’s name is "Rus"sell, and to t"rus"t them. I see you.

Rust starts with the same letters as Russia. I know what’s going on here.
