jumping won’t impress her

Unless it’s jump humping.

locked box

As soon as I read this I read the rest of your comment in Al Gore’s voice, ca 2k SNL, lol.

ITT I wish those that can recall would name and shame.

Funny thing I’ve been driving for 30+ years, and have never had a formal driving test:

• Permit at 15: No tests, only restriction was to have a licensed passenger in-vehicle

• License at 16: Had driver’s ed in school, state’s driving test waved, and license transferred to other states without any new driving test

• Motorcycle license: Took a safety course while in the military, state added endorsement without any test, which also transferred out-of-state

• Heavy vehicles: Trained on military 5-ton/deuce+0.5/Frontloaders/HMMWVs - all kinds of heavy equipment - no formal tests, only unit sign-off (even on civilian roads)

• The kicker: I now live in a US state where a driver license is good with no re-testing till age 64

Gonna suck when I actually do have to take a test. Hopefully there will be sane infra to go completely driverless by the time I get that old.

I love it too, I buy some of the wallaby stuff now and again.

Just don’t eat a ton in any given day.

Edit - Oh shit:

In past warnings, the FDA notes: “If you’re 40 or older, eating 2 ounces of black licorice a day for at least two weeks could land you in the hospital with an irregular heart rhythm or arrhythmia.”

Yeah some kind of fucky configuration.

The root is:

http://archive.ubuntu.com

Which, if the ubuntu link is clicked, then drops you into the the real archive root… but the link is “appended” to the new path, but the same link is reproduced in the “new” folder. Click it again, and another segment added to your current path even though you’re in the same root archive, ad nauseam.

I couldn’t find this misconfiguration on stackoverflow, which leads me to believe someone at ubuntu is doing something especially special here.

I    don’t    use    an    ide,    but    I    wrote    a    script    that    replaces    any    space    I    type    with    four.

I    haven’t    worked    out    all    the    use    cases    yet,    though.

Perhaps made even more so by having been highlighted by a username such as yours, /u/cum.

design their own product from scratch

I think you’re right, even regardless of the license involved. One of my profs in school had told us nothing is stopping anyone from writing a whole new Microsoft Word, feature for feature, button for button the same. And in fact, look at Libre Office - a MS Word clone.

The missteps to avoid when creating a whole new clone are:

0. Don’t rip off actual implementation code from the original and put it in your own product (this is a bigger concern w/ OSS since anyone can rip of pieces without giving credit)

1. Avoid confusing users that your clone is somehow an extension/iteration of the original (e.g. ripping off branding, or sound-alike names)

have it’s own network and just a simple plugin that can communicate with the fediverse

Mastodon uses the ActivityPub protocol, which is an opensource API. The US supreme court has ruled that implementing an API is fair use, copyrights do not come into play here.

So I think the only recourse for avoiding Meta and it’s Thread foray, is defederating it on a per instance basis.

I fear this might turn real ugly, similar to how Google got in the browser game, dominated, and is now doing evil and shitty things like manifest v3 and WEI.

similar to the GPL license

It’s already AGPL, which indeed is, similar to GPL lol.

My first script ever was written in lua for a world of warcraft macro to spit out chuck norris one liners. People in the barrens hated me.

I can see a squirrel peaking out and hear Snot humping in the background! Beautiful!

Man I’m still salty about the real ending, I think the 5 min ending might be preferable (not really, again, just salty).

Jesus us my…

Terry A. Davis, his journey creating his masterpiece is an incredible one. RIP, Terry.

I started answering unknown numbers and fucking with the people on the other end, saying anything to string them along and waste their time with bullshit and lies

I had a stoner friend who would drop everything in any given evening to do exactly this, specifically for his own entertainment and derision.

Ah, to be young and with plenty of spare time on hand, those were the days and we didn’t even realize it.

Memento is a time loop of sorts, good movie for sure.

An “entanglement”

Here’s my last one, I’m pretty fucking boring:
