In Australian AFL, otherwise known as Aussie Rules, it's pretty common to need to jump high enough that you get another person to launch you. Imagine that from horseback! I'd watch.

Grnrrth is a FOSS native qualitivate built with the Jot framework. It comfortably handles 2NUT, xrr, .gif, and any other Banbo hierarchies in a windowed, cross-system integrated module.

That's RGB 1, 122, 134.

So while it's slightly more blue than it is green, I would argue that by calling it one or the other, you are cutting yourself off from a whole spectrum of wondrous complexity. Needing to win an argument denies you the subtle beauty of expanding your view of the world, opening your eyes to the possibility that not only is the other side correct, but you are correct as well.

What always gets me when I see paper like this, is just how much manpower, engineering time, experimentation, materials science, and just sheer concerted effort went into making paper this fucking thin and useless.

Jesus fucking Christ... Is this the reality people in the US are living? I can't comprehend the environment that would lead to someone giving this advice.

From my quick look at the source, this headline is just plain wrong. They simply multiply concert attendance by ticket price and call that Swift's earnings. I'm assuming that other people need to be paid from those sales- like, I dunno, the production team, the dancers, the suppliers of staging, the ticket distributor, the cleanup crew, the people who make the lunch for the crew, the people who supply the ingredients for the lunch, the people who co-ordinate the vehicles that deliver the ingredients, the website design team, the stadiums themselves...

The location of light switches relative to the light.

Study suggests children remotely move matter to extinguish birthday cake candles, to prevent wildfires.

Neon Genesis Evangelion. The 'angels' are the baddies that arrive to fuck up humanity.

It's an absolute classic. Go watch it.

The internet has totally changed how humanity works, learns, socialises, and plays. I cannot think of a more dramatic social upheaval, aside from possibly the industrial revolution, or the taming of the horse.

Formula 1 races average about 200kph, with a top speed of 375. These are the best of the best professionally trained drivers in multimillion dollar equipment tailored to them and designed to keep them (and others) safe at those speeds.

300km/h on the highway is essentially suicide by stupidity, not to mention manslaughter for whoever you hit. You are travelling fast enough that you literally don't have time to react to something several hundred metres in front of you.

150 is really fast, 200 is stupid fast, and 300 is really fucking stupid fast.

I work in an environment that can have some tight timeline, high stress moments. People often deal with this with a kind of controlled panic- "Hi. This thing is not working." "Fuck, this is not working, quick, try that thing! Argh! Not working either! Oh no, shits fucked. Shit... Ok, try the other thing! Fuck, call Gary, they might know what to do!"

Then I worked with a person who had this totally different approach. When shit hit the fan, they just super calmly looked around, and said "That's a bit boring." Just that phrase shifted my whole perspective on the industry. Just treat the problem as a minor annoyance, and you'll see that it's rarely worth getting panicked about.

The other thing they taught me- no matter how urgent it is, never run. Running makes it look like we fucked up. And we don't fuck up, we just have the next thing that needs to be fixed.

Yeah, this is the first step in properly refurbishing cast iron.

Sounds like somebody needs to go restore a train...

I wonder how many people from the States would prefer that the US become a Canadian province.

If it reads as gibberish, you're too old. If it makes perfect sense, you're too young. Somewhere in between those ages is the funny zone, where you can sorta understand what it's meant to be doing.

I see your water bridge, but ask, what happens when a big boat wants to get past? I'll tell you what happens- The Barton Swing Aqueduct.

Head units are no longer a seperate component.

God damnit, three replies in this thread, and one of them is someone who beat me to the one I was going to say! Well played.

My second favourite, then-
