To be fair, this bus is always on time.

Linux shell also has… a thing going on.

touch

mount
man
fsck

Maybe its to saturate production so nobody else gets them first?

That’s hilarious.

But also, who the hell trades in a car with barely four years of payments on it?

Poor little Johnny, for he is no more.

As what he thought was H2O, was H2SO4.

Consider the mere fact that Doctors exist, and have been a thing for thousands of years. I think this tells us that for every person that is incapable of keeping themselves alive, there’s at least a hundred more just like that, and just one person smart enough to keep them all going.

This reminds me of some amazing advice I picked up online, some years ago:

You don’t owe your past self anything.

I’m sorry, but what about this cube is “population sized”?

Well, if you liquefy the entire human race, it would fit into a container with roughly those proportions.

I have never seen the word “forgiveness” so subtly weaponized before.

It only just dawned on me that it’s possible to eat (grocery store) chicken your whole life and never actually see a live one, anywhere. If nobody told you what a chicken looked like, you would never know.

I don’t think there’s a more appropriate time for this parody: “The bad guys won”

Rate of change in 2021 (last data point on this graph) is nearly vertical. Five years of that would put a few zeros at the end of that figure, which is exactly what happened.

That, or Jordan Mechner.

Scene: storeroom, deep beneath Hyrule castle.

Link: bumps into a ceramic pot, knocking it to the floor, shattering everywhere. Mixed in with the shards of pottery are several rupies.

Zelda: look of shock at what Link did.

Link: looks at pot, scared, then slowly looks up to Zelda.

Zelda: her gaze changes to a mischievous ear-to-ear grin.

Scene: pottery breaking music montage - everything in the storeroom is laid to waste.

these are influencers paying thousands of dollars to play dress up at a music festiva

I’m still trying to wrap my head around this. I see pics of a “music festival” but there’s no mud, dirt, dust, and a complete lack of patrons that look strung out on days of drugs and a total lack of sleep. Then I hear about the premium experience you describe and I just shudder as my brain latches on to “this might look better, but it doesn’t seem right.”

Please insert brain into drive A: and press [Enter] when ready.

I often wondered about this behavior. Every so often I would see someone go to their car in a parking lot, sit down in the driver’s seat and just… go nowhere. Engine is running, music is on, driver has a 1000-yard stare. It’s so far removed from my own experience - I never do this - that for the longest time, I couldn’t wrap my head around it. Somehow, the phrase ‘after a long day’ made it click. So thanks, OP.

Apartment living also showed me that some people just hang out alone in the car instead of in the apartment. That I can understand as some units can be downright claustrophobic if you have a big family. Want privacy? Get a car payment I guess. :(

That man is a menace.

I had a dusty laptop running a homelab for you, and figured I should show something nice on the screen. Then, I typed in my password like an idiot. Not gonna put that online. :(
