I’m calling you an ambulance.

To add insult to injury, a US cup is 236.6 millilitres, while a UK (imperial) cup is 170.48 millilitres. Not even close. There’s a whole lot of other measurements called “cup” too: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cup_(unit)

If I recall, that particular genie actually pretty much granted the wishes as they were intended, did he not?

In that case, tennis is football, volleyball is football, bowling is football, snooker is football (or perhaps footballs?)

You’ve open Pandora’s box of football!

Football or football?

Sure, it was alright, but I do love my family too ❤️

Last time I went out on a trip with the extended family (we’re roughly 20 people, give or take), it was in a rented big structure with a sleeping area, a dining area, and a kitchen, and a yard outside with a place to make a fire. We started a fire, but come dinner time they all wanted to leave the fire going and eat at the table.

I absolutely refused. No way in the world in leaving a fire unattended like that. I said we either stop the fire altogether (and restart it later), or I’ll stay watching it until someone comes to replace me.

In the end I took a plate of food and ate it by the fire alone, until someone indeed came to replace me and I went to finish the meal at the table. It turned out fine, but it really annoyed me how no one in my family saw sense. They kept trying to convince me to just come and eat dinner… as if the social togetherness somehow makes the risk of starting a forest fire unimportant?! There’s some smart people in my family, but some days I don’t understand how they can all be so blind to the obvious reality.

Also it might all be bullshit and we’re speculating on it randomly.

Most of the comments here completely miss the fact that difference in the OP appears after charging, not after using. It doesn’t matter if one is primary or not, they both had the same amount of time to charge from 0%, so they should be the same.

Yeah, I know that it’s just a nickname people gave it, like “Wiimote” for the Wii Remote which caused trouble for the Weemote but was obviously not Nintendo’s responsibility. But as I said, it’s a kinda-funny meme description of what the Steam Machine is, I get annoyed when people actually use it as a nickname for it in conversation or videos.

Honestly I’m so sick of it being called the “GabeCube”, partly because it’s too close to GameCube phonetically that it actually sounds pretty much identical to GameCube in most cases, but moreso because it’s the result of the hard work of so many talented and passionate engineers at Valve, it feels really disrespectful to call it after the businessman who funded it.

It’s an amusing pun, I enjoyed hearing/reading it the first time. Second time onwards it’s just annoying.

It was removed completely soon after: https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/406169/383346

After some reflection, I’ve removed this Easter egg. It’ll be gone in the upcoming man-db 2.8.0.

I’m glad that it made some people smile, which after all was the whole purpose of it, and my Twitter notifications and so on today suggest that most people thought it was more amusing than annoying. Still, some people did find it annoying, and six years seems like a pretty good run for that sort of thing; it probably isn’t going to get significantly better exposure than it already unexpectedly has by way of this question. Time to put it to bed.

Works for me, somehow: https://github.com/asimons04/Anewbis/commit/04969df9b18cc006b5a6fa7beb2b7113cef5b8c5

But it’s github (microslop) so I totally believe you that something’s broken.

Hmm I’m pretty sure it was there from the start and never edited. Guess you just missed it, no worries

As I said, OP linked to the commit but in the wrong repo, causing this message to appear:

While we’re asking questions, does the number 196 have any significance?

Is that the woman version of a young David Mitchell? I don’t know how I feel about that…

Context is from this repo: https://github.com/asimons04/Anewbis

(you linked to the right commit but not the fork it came from)

Downvote this if you have the number hidden
