Repost. But, because of that, I get to share the name for this I learned last time: “Billy Irish”

I doubt I’ll get to try one, I’ll have to get off the bupropion first.

Well, if it’s good enough for quartz mining…

Good, the children yearn for the lithium mines. /s

Maybe I should re-train from computer programmer to lithium miner?

• Gaslight
• Gatekeep
• Girlboss

Once there was mysterious gas arising from a crack in the ground. The gas was flammable, and when lit the light emitted turned anything illuminated into a female. No where else was this magic found, so fortifications were built around the crack to control and protect it, and they were staffed strongly and continuously. There was but one designed access point, and but one person that controlled the opening and closing of that access point: the girl-light gas-keep gate-boss.

Authoritarian means will not generate the anarchist ends.

I don’t think that’s 100% true. The guy that famously (posthumously) plays Yorick ('s skull) is not anonymous. (I just have problems with remembering names.)

Also, posthumous organ donation isn’t necessarily anonymous.

I think other Skongposters probably held off; I did a quick search of the thread to make sure I was at least the first person on my instance to mention it. 😜

But, you got me.

You could do it like a movie: I was a big fan of Steam Controller (2015) and saw it twice, but I’m not going to see Steam Controller (2026), at least not for a while.

Silksong release was still bigger. They didn’t sell out(*) and the store was down longer.

Barney, I’m not introducing you to my sister.

I refuse to treat the lack of evidence the same as evidence. “Source: Trust me, bro” is not valid, whether “me” is “Internet Rando” or “Big Corp”.

I’ve never been very creative, but I loved playing the flyswatter game inside Mario Paint.

Putting aside the problems in the current system, let’s not call Thiel’s system a justice system until we can see some results and verify they are just, 'k?

That’s basically the start of the Shadowrun dystopia. There were a lot of other things that “went wrong”, but when the government removed the liability from private security that has been protecting a hazardous materials transport from workers attacking it in the belief that it contained foodstuffs, it legitimized the “megacorp”: a corporation sufficiently powerful to impose their own legal system on their private real estate.

EDIT: In the previous histories the “Seretech Decision” was on 1999-10-26. Sources: 1 2 3 Looks like “6th edition” retconned the fictional history to start 2001-09-11 (Never Forget), so it’s unclear what and when the equivalent event is. Source: 4

If running a development team is like herding cats, of course an self-organized free software team is a “clowder”. Autonomy respecting catboys are also welcome.

Mirror enforcers are a lot more serious than that. Just ask Lake (nee: piluT) from the “Infinity Train”.

IIRC, some jackdows (both male and female) seem to just like “pretty” rocks and will maintain a cache to visit irregularly.

He’s not trying hard enough. You can touch tongues, too. No entwining, but maybe in the P-reversed universe, that’s just taboo.

classic story of the US spending millions on developing pens that write in space while the Soviet Union just issued pencils

You used “story”, so I’ll assume you know this is mostly untrue, but for any of the lucky 10k that hasn’t heard: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_Pen#Uses_in_the_U.S._and_Soviet_space_programs
