<GargajCNS> so i was looking at my VR headset and realized
<GargajCNS> my parents always told me not to sit close to the TV, and now in 2017 i'm literally jamming TVs into my eyes
<ben_vulpes> code is not fucking art
<ben_vulpes> code is a bespoke railway engine hauling your carcass across the desolate sea of capitalism
<ben_vulpes> imagine if every single container ship had an entirely custom engine humming along inside, and the three people who knew where it needed grease applied daily basically just live in it
<ben_vulpes> that's software
<pflanze> in any case, I can see why you changed your userid from ``bigassniggaonascooterdrinkingcaprisun`` before launching the business
<Dr_pressure> Church is like book club except the book never changes and only one person gets to speak

<PeopleProgrammer> the last thing I saw as I turned on an option in pidgin and crashed my machine
<SlickG> I know like... extremely little about AD
<SlickG> I tried to set up my Raspberry Pi as an AD DC using Raspian Linux.
<SlickG> Trust me that did not end well
<LtBrenton> ...
<SlickG> My desktop took 10 minutes to authenticate a login. Never again fuck that shit
<Val> Oddish, holy fuck
<Val> I'm sitting, parked, on a dirt road in my cab. Call comes on the radio from dispatch, quote, "Who wants to do a pickup right now?"
<Val> I hit E to accept.
<Val> A Sadler - basically a Ford F-250 crew cab - rear-ends my taxi.
<Val> I guess I consented.
<Oddish> .....
<@Talgie> I think at -50 votes, the comment gets removed... YES THAT MEANS YOU BASH
<Crusher> when I invited the top dozen or so botnets in here in 1997 it was empty
<tev> Where *did* the bots go?
<Crusher> tev: we opped them all, put them on bitch and the resulting -o+k+b+o... resulted in a network flood that not only completly split eFnet, but also melted blackend's primary router taking down Internet access to half of Arizona for around a week, which caused them to delink from eFnet till 2005
<ednos> technically, I'm not pedantic
<Sohcahtoa> I don’t always use UTF-8, but when I do, I parse it as ASCII.
< hydrocat> Hello, I need some insight on asyncio's run_forever()

<CaptainJistuce> I am still waging a linguistic battle against that use of the term fixed. Surely an animal works as intended before the procedure, which renders a major subsystem inoperational. They are broken afterwards.
Optical Disc: My little brother recently got grounded from video games
Optical Disc: He had no clue what else to do so I suggested he play outside
Optical Disc: So he went and just stood there for a while
Optical Disc: And now he's hitting a rock with a stick
Optical Disc: I asked if he's having fun and he said "I don't know"
<steve> so there was this documentation for Structured bonds missing
<steve> apparently someone has labeled the document as SRUCTured bonds
<steve> inside the document there was a link to a SQL query
<steve> but whenever you clicked it it would show title bar of the window only
<steve> when you resized it to see the query, you would see the window is empty
<steve> but somehow copy and paste worked and you could copy from empty window
<steve> in editor you would get two queries
<steve> one for version 3.1.29 and newer and one for versions prior to 3.1.29
<steve> we had 3.1.29, so OBVIOUSLY the one working was the older one
<steve> lost 3 hours because of this
<steve> this is some new level of fuckery
