Also this classic xkcd

Oh no. Are you telling me that an xkcd numbered in the 2000s is a “classic” now? Yikes

Once upon a time, straight outta school, I wrote up solutions to problems from the Serway physics book. For Chegg. $5 per problem.

Fuck Chegg.

Ice cream is always about churning air into cream. But nowadays the air ratio has definitely gone up. Seemingly across the board.

And that assumes that you’re not buying a brand that has gotten into the fakery.

Not embedded (using Jerboa).

And they are all welcome back if they can satisfy the Linux Foundation that they’re not affiliated with a sanctioned entity on the SDN list.

Oh they really did. Except because it was the 90s it was real analog closed circuit television, and nothing was wireless.

It was the one piece of NASA training that you just graded yourself on.

This is exactly how NASA built the Space Shuttle Toilet Simulator.

Compare with the yearly release cycle on cars.

Like any other convention, it’s not really a big deal either way. Fortran gets along just fine with 1-indexing.

It’s not clear if they properly matched the Reynolds numbers and other similarity parameters to properly make this comparison.

Would a fork be technically viable if Americans and American businesses can’t participate (because the fork works with SDN entities)? Maybe.

The reality is that the Linux Foundation is in the United States, and Linus is a naturalized US citizen who lives in Oregon (at least on Wikipedia). So they both will have to pay attention to avoid transacting business with individuals and companies on the SDN list. That is the law in the United States.

802.11ax, clients just… (essentially) wait for a random amount of time, listen for a break in the signal, and take a leap of faith.

Ethernet originally worked the same way, back when it competed directly against token ring. Ethernet won by being as reliable in real world scenarios while being cheaper to build out. Gigabit Ethernet was the first standard that insisted on full duplex only.

Half duplex mode with the collision avoidance is still actively supported for 10/100, but it is becoming very hard to find an unswitched hub. So you may have to write up your own twisted pair cables.

Tablespoon of olive oil straight up is an actual complete breakfast around various parts of the Mediterranean.

E. coli is a coliform bacteria. That means it’s found in, you guessed it …shit. So E. coli is a great topic for a shitpost.

How the E coli gets from the shit to the meat is left as an exercise to the reader.

Really I worked a project once that just had post-its stuck to the wall. It worked as well as Jira does.

You forgot the “… Or I’ll break your kneecaps.”

Reminder: it is in SpaceX’s interest to try to prevent either belligerent from using Starlink for military purposes. Among other reasons, SpaceX does not want tighter ITAR or EAR export restrictions that come with being a munition or dual-use technology.

Some airlines nowadays are trying to sell the exit row seats at a premium as an upgrade.

We should also mention that if you are uncomfortable with sitting in the exit row, federal regulations require the airline to reseat you in a different row on request. You don’t have to provide a reason why.
