Happy International Women's Day to the original International Woman

The sleep equivalent to “you ate beets last night, don’t freak out”

If you wake up feeling like crap some random-seeming Sunday, it was Daylight Saving

And we also know that if one tattooer won't do it, a client will usually go look for one who will. Some real sickos out there still doing tribal bands on Dodge Challenger owners.

Da chips are da boats

I got it on my second guess. Very fun fact!

CONFIRMED (it was also my guess)

When someone says „Scientists do not want you to know“ you can dismiss everything from there on. Scientists want you to know. They are desperate that you know. They can’t shut up about what they found out and want you to know.

(A dream for my retirement years) My hardcore band was banned from the Denny's show because we got people summersaulting in the pit.

I believe the definition of being a wizard should expand. Example? Any time you've had good luck that was actually the result of an innate spell you emanate. You were being a wizard.

Bad luck? That was just a stronger wizard affecting your aura.

criterion channel rn has a collection called YEARNING and a collection called STUNTS! and between them exits the entire spectrum of human art and emotion

My dog got too high and ordered dessert via delivery. Again.

100% apart from living in the country. I also exported my livejournal (which will never be found) and Tumblr a few months ago just to have the data. But after looking at ~5 random entries I know there is nothing of any value at all in it.

Seizing the means of production but in a Real American Patriot Republican way.

Folks still vastly underestimate how many banks are running on an entire army of staff in India just trying to reconcile the books by morning. Every single night.

"I see the transfer instantly in the app," sure, but that isn't real in any meaningful way at all.

Haha. Appointment is around noon, I’ll see what I can do. (Longer story version is that after a couple years on the waitlist for a pair of custom hiking boots, this is the most economical path for the fitting. They’re doing a bunch of west coast people today.)

Today a man is flying from New Hampshire and I am flying from Oregon to meet in a San Francisco airport hotel so he can thoroughly measure my feet. I'll be back home before dinner.

Once word got back to the message board (FAnns Rule) they realized it was useless to keep asking.

LOL, sure Microsoft, sure.

(every country)

Starting to suspect that much of this country's founding and history may not have been with the best of intentions!

Looks like it's time for my fifth complete watch-through.

All that and a bag of chips

Agreed. This kind of “but actually” will also be funny if/when quantum comes around. If they think this era is a random pick, wait until it’s three billion roulette spins and lands on “Yes, mostly”

Apologies, meant $14 in 202*5*. You likely caught it but just in case others don't.

Micron (and US semis) seem to not get a lot of news!

Nothing public on storage. I think they're all focusing on density of storage (30TB+ drives!!) which survive any market scenario.

However… Micron plans to go to $20Bn from last year's $14Bn.

Maybe someone else. Micron is pushing for $20Bn (or more) in new CapEx plans, from $14Bn in 2026. At some point everyone is hitting limits with either physical or physical material.

100%. The largest players in any industry absolutely desire regulation because it makes communication about standards easier and adds significant challenge to smaller/shady players.

SOC-2, PCI, ISO, etc. Standards and regulation accelerate communication.

This is funny on at least two levels, I love it.
