When someone is having a computer problem I ask them to restart first. Not because I think they don’t know to do it, but just in case. Some people don’t know. Sometimes people forget. Obvious advice is useful sometimes.
I really thought the idea was, “You like mecha? You like kids piloting mecha? This is how it’d go down.” I loved it so much. Shinji’s a broken, abused shell child. He lives with a broken human who drowns her sorrows in drink. His father is just evil. He’d have to be to let his kid pilot the mecha.
The only real father figure we ever see for shinji is a spy. Who gets killed. He’s in love with a girl that hates him. Because he’s broken. But he has no one else. Except those friends at school who I think they take away. Don’t remember. And that angel who he has to kill or something. Damn, it’s been like 25 years. I have no idea what happened. But in my memory it’s terrible. Wonderful stuff.
We knew spooks were all up in the phone network. They’d show up and ask installers to run them some cables and configure ports in a certain way. I was friends with folks who were friends with the installers.
I work on software for finding things and summarizing stuff. We were one of those Apache 2 -> other relicenses a while back.
I can’t really talk about specifics. But we all have a working imagination though. I think about it a lot. But I still do the job. There are good folks doing good things with it.
I’m a pretty good engineer. Not the best I’ve ever met by a long shot, but I’m good. But I’m very outgoing for an engineer.
Ironically, that’d describe both my parents too.
I had this one weekend when I was in tenth grade where I did nothing but write code on a fun project. Then I decided I didn’t like writing code. I don’t know why. Kids are weird.
I decided then I couldn’t make it my job. I managed not to program for three years. It turns out I’m bad at everything else. Miserable.
That was 22 years ago. That’s still all I’m good at.
Pre-merge code review should stop that kind of thing. I honestly haven’t seen anything like this in years.
Chrono Trigger. The Magus Fight. The music.
FF6. Magitech Factory. Also music.
Metal Gear Solid. Psycho Mantis. Late at night. Tired.
Eternal Sonata. Last Fight. Intro line.
Hades. Final boss. Extreme measures 4.
NES Tetris. Crashing.
I hate the smell of some ground coffee. Others smell good.
I put googly eyes on things.
I had this silly thing kicking around in me head forever. I’v always had a generally positive view of Gore and now is the time to square that circle. Thanks for your comment. It made me read more. The guy was on Futurama. He deserves that.
Apparently he pushed for money for bringing more mass adoption of the Internet. It looks like as a senator he recognized the value of the Internet before stuff like gopher existed. Presumably because of papers from the NSF. So he was important.
In some question on the news he flubbed words and said something like, “I took the initiative in developing the Internet.” That’s not a lie so far as I can tell, but boy does it sound like bullshit. It’s super close to “I invented the Internet”.
I got all this from one source so maybe it’s bullshit, but hey: https://firstmonday.org/ojs/index.php/fm/article/view/799/708
Saw it twenty five years ago. Never again.
I’ve been using a sonicare for years now. I think it was expensive but it’s lasted forever and does a great job.
I was bored on an airplane a while back and discovered a Japanese movie adaptation of A Door Into Summer: https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/the_door_into_summer
It’d been 25 years since my mom read the story to me so I can’t tell you how accurate the adaptation is but it hit the parts I remembered.
I was curious. Looks like Florida has about the same population as Sri Lanka. Similar to Romania for the EU folks. While I could find them both on a map I couldn’t tell you anything going on their. Much less news from a year ago.
Maybe its fair to bump the populations some because Desantis was a Republican presidential hopeful. But I couldn’t tell you the names of the folks who lost the last Tory leadership election.
So, yeah, comment checks out.
