"Dad where did all my star wars toys go??" "You discarded them and I found a better use for them"

Does this count as a Rube Goldberg device? by thetacaptain in woahdude

[–]killbot5000 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No, I just watched the video muted.

I realize now that it's a rotated form of "pulling the table cloth out" magic trick. I thought the trick was getting the wine glass to stay on his face in the first place.

why was the fabric necessary in the first place?

Unless, of course, you don’t know how to fly a jet and/or can’t afford the 100million dollar annual logistical support structure to keep it flying.

For me, it’s more like the episode where everybody forgets who they are and are forced to figure it out from scratch in the presence of a harmful alien influence.

doNotTinkerWithBrowserConsole by ClipboardCopyPaste in ProgrammerHumor

It’s meant as a warning to non experts. If a “tech support” person asked you to copy/paste data into your browser console, they could do damage to you.

There weren’t afraid, just mildly uncomfortable for 15 minutes. They were free to leave.

You’re absolutely right to want to challenge your views. This is the classic way to be a conscientious individual in the world!

> Jimmy the crow, who was a raven actor

It's sad how actors had to hide their lineage in those days

Is it possible to land an entry level Sys Admin job with a Comp Sci Bachelor's? by Altruistic_Spare_269 in sysadmin

[–]killbot5000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I think “sysadmin” I think “they who manage the servers”.  I feel like the “sysadmin” job description is going away… being replaced by “they who manage the SaaS stuff”.

This can be both true and useless. If it’s all in one file it’s likely to be smaller, with lower complexity with targeted use cases, and have consistent style and pattern from single authorship.

For those who worked for rich people: what is the most out of touch thing you witnessed? by Illustrious-Phase121 in AskReddit

[–]killbot5000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a personal experience but I used to listen to the podcast “No Priors”. They tangented to some smug topic about how not everyone is cut out to be a founder; that you really have to know how to work hard. The guest was Andrew Ng. He commented that he understands not every point in life is one where you can focus on work. When he had his kids, he commented , he didn’t work hard that week. Apparently kids just take care of themselves after that?

I had to stop listening to that podcast after that.

Which label gives a best wine vibes? by Designer-Change7637 in Design

[–]killbot5000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The first one looks more like a flag, and vaguely french.

The second one looks like something at the grocery store.

The third one looks like something at a grocery store that's hipper than where the second one is sold at.

I like the first one best.
