  • Unironically the deadliest land animal

  • Like plugging a power bar into itself

  • Lmao this one is so dumb. Flicking off the water helps you dry your hands with less paper towel. Although at the time of this comic it was probably one of those cloth towel roller thingies.

  • Maybe we do some multi-track-drifting and just have Everett clock Nancy when he sees her filling up the bucket

  • Newpipe does this I think. Not sure if you can get it on your TV

  • That's adorable. But do owls not build nests or beds of any kind? They just rawdog sleeping on a branch?

  • I love the style of all the dogs in the 4th panel

  • Alt+. can scroll up through the last few commands

  • Ah. I see, so reducing the resolution was more about sending frames to the monitor faster, not about optimizing the tube hardware's behaviour

  • Yeah I didn't think it would make the "pixels" smaller, but the beam would need to pulse less often and therefore could travel more. Maybe I'm misunderstanding what they did.

  • It makes sense you'd be able to get a much higher refresh rate on a tube if you reduce the resolution, since you would be reducing the beam's travel.

  • Personally I had to come to terms with the idea that anything other than just running the raw commands will get me into trouble. I work on a lot of servers, and so I need to be able to rely on my shell knowledge even when my bashrc isn't handy. So for me it became more about just remembering what software does what thing broadly, and then checking man for the finer details.

    But for a single personal machine, script it however you want. Just be aware that you'll start to build muscle memory for aliases and custom functions that won't follow you to new machines.

  • Definitely sounds like sqlite.

  • I'm still figuring all this out but for me the biggest things were:

    • Dating app stuff. What to put in your profile, what to talk about when you match with someone, how to convert a match into an actual date
    • Confidence. After you hit 28 years old and still haven't been on a single date it starts feeling more and more like there's something wrong with you. I really had to work hard in therapy to kill that particular demon. The worst part is, you have to kill that demon or nothing will change. You can't successfully find someone if you believe there is some legitimate problem with you that people won't accept. And sometimes, there literally is something wrong with you that you need to correct.
    • Socializing. I'm autistic so a lot of the general rules of conversation, particularly how to have the kind of conversation that makes the other person enjoy talking with you, was really hard for me. I'm still working on this one, but at least for the time being I've gotten over the hurdle of getting a steady girlfriend.
  • Yeah because the original meaning of the phrase has mostly been overshadowed by the more self-serving definition

  • But is that really a world you want to live in?

  • Wouldn't that be deputizing? Like if Gordon wants Batman's help then technically Batman is Gordon's deputy.

  • "The customer is always right" refers to the fact that demand can be inferred by what people buy. If you own a store and you're like "nobody is going to buy these bright yellow sweaters" but the bright yellow sweaters are selling like hotcakes, then you are wrong. People are buying those sweaters. And we call people who buy stuff customers.

  • Will they let you go higher if you switch to windowed?
