My last job is currently controlling kubernetes with Ansible (configuration management and orchestration) in a hybrid cloud model. The new engineering director likes yaml so they put yaml on his yaml.

That era of Internet history was wild. Between weird sex stuff like that and tentacle soup, weird body stuff like goatse and tubgirl, and straight up death like two guys one hammer. It seemed like every third person on the internet was trying to trick you into watching one of those.

Yep. A lot of these tech companies that have run in the red for years are now being called on to produce a profit and pay the big backers.

You can’t really cook a person’s rib primal the same way you’d do beef. People meat is not marbled like beef so you’d want to cook it low and slow with a lot of moisture.

So while you could have a people prime rib sandwich, it’s not going to have a great texture.

I can’t argue with that because honestly I was jealous of the folks running it. But they are buying new equipment today and I’m not.

Same. I have a lot of legacy recording equipment that I won’t replace until it stops working and it’s all mini USB.

I’m just glad I got what I did instead of FireWire.

I sing karaoke fairly often. I sing the nonsense lyrics and no one seems to notice, especially if I sing 90s rock.

Not as prevalent these days, but a lot of EMR/EHR was built on XP. Some of those companies went out of business and the clinics using the software never upgraded because they couldn’t get the data out into another system.

Until the CIO gets the “telephone game” version of what’s going on.

That’s not the one I was talking about, but it doesn’t surprise me.

I’m less concerned about that and more concerned about supervillains building lairs.

Some of us always look like shit.

I just assume it’s a convoluted way to present Loss.

Same thing is happening a lot of places. One large american company that I’m not going to mention is doing several rounds of layoffs along with a return to office initiative.

Goddammit, you brilliant bastard.

is making me get the distro itchy foot.

They make a powder for that.

Yep. I’ve tried several others and they’re not for me, but a lot of people are really happy with them.

I like SteamOS so much that I’m using HoloISO on mini PCs around the house to simulate consoles and stream couch games from my gaming rig upstairs. But my experience isn’t everyone’s so get your hands on it and try it out.

He didn’t want to be any trouble.

Black lotus, channel, fireball. That was the crazy meta abuse with a 1 turn kill. By the third turn you’d have to have a terrible draw in order to not win.

I thought, though I could be wrong because it was a thousand years ago, that the 4 card rule came between beta and unlimited, but it could have been unlimited and revised. I started with beta and it definitely wasn’t in effect then. Folks coming at you with a hand full of lotuses, dark rituals, moxes, and fireballs.

Theoretically, someone could have baked the sugar from lemonade onto their pipes by riding with a cup of it in a cup holder attached to an engine guard. Then hypothetically that person could have had great success removing it using Bike Brite, then taking 000 steel wool to it after the bulk was gone.

I’m not saying it happened, I’m saying you can’t prove it happened to me.
