It’s from the short story “I Have No Mouth And I Must Scream”by Harlan Ellison .

I’d like a counter of how many people have quit after not knowing where to go when you had to kneel in that one specific place for that specific amount of time to have a tornado come and take you whatever place it was.

macOS has something to this effect where if it detects too many kernel panics in a row on boot it will disable all kernel extensions on the next reboot and it pops up a message explaining this. I’ve had this happen to me when my GPU was slowly dying. It eventually did bite the dust on me, but it did let me get into the system a few times to get what I needed before it was kaput.

I also abandoned ship and signed up for Lemmy on June 12. we’re twinses.

He’d get along well with Terrance Howard.

Remember when Darl showed some “encrypted code” that he claimed was stolen and added to Linux and it was really just some POSIX definitions from a header file taken from BSD “encrypted” with a wing dings font? Those were some wild times.

Sisters Euclid. They were a Canadian band who recently called it a career after like 27 years of mostly-under-the-radar instrumental jangle jazz, or something to that effect. They did win a Juno for an album of Neil Young instrumentals and reinterpretations called “Run Neil Run”, but outside of the Toronto are and southwest Ontario I don’t think they were widely known. Members of the band have played in all sorts of other bands and with other folks, many of which y’all would recognize like Norah Jones and the Doobie Brothers, they all really accomplished musicians. I saw them live dozens of times before they called it a day, and I always saw and heard something new with every performance. Seeing them live was definitely the best way to take them in, as their studio albums seemed like they were just scaffolding for the live shows.

Hoping for a reunion show in 5-10 years. I’d travel for it.

I haven’t posted on Reddit since they treated third party app devs like shit. I’m done with that site.

Bought a new computer, threw the old one out.

Use etc-keeper, saves everything in a git repo and integrates with a bunch of package managers. Been using it for decades it feels like now.

Ligature, not lineature.

Exit codes from processes are damage points that you take against your HP. When your HP runs out, the distro reformats itself to a clean state.

Shake and bake in full effect.

The USA doesn’t do what the USA does for the USA, the USA does what the USA does because the USA is the USA.

Don’t forget the interactive video they did for an anniversary thing a few years back.

Next you’ll be telling me that the stream rewinder I bought is a scam.
