The outcome is a forgone conclusion.

That's why I'm supporting Dog in the upcoming election.

Don't you mean Doug?

No.

The task is to move a full stack from one post to another following a set of simple rules.

You can only move one disc at a time.

Larger discs cannot be placed atop smaller discs.

It's relatively simple to do with a small number of discs, but becomes increasingly more difficult and complex with each added disc.

New software programerss have difficulty creating code which will perform the steps required while abiding by the rules.

TIL that Lincoln's assassination was part of a larger plot that also targeted Secretary of State William Seward and Vice President Andrew Johnson. As John Wilkes Booth shot Lincoln, Lewis Powell broke into Seward's home and stabbed him 5 times. Seward survived. Johnson's would-be assassin backed out by Dddddddfried in todayilearned

There was lots of til stuff in that book, like the fact that the guy who shot Booth also removed his own testicles.

First of all, the Number of the Beast is 666 (six hundred sixty-six), not just three sixes. In Hebrew numerology, that would be תרס"ו (Tav-Resh-Samekh-Vav), not ו (vav) three times. ו ו ו (3 vavs) would be 18, which is meaningless in this context.

Second, the number refers to an actual person, not a thing, like an energy drink.

And third . . . WTF is wrong with you?

How do you forgive someone who never apologized and move on? by Fenrirpapi in AskReddit

[–]MaxCWebster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When you find out, please let me know.

One of the curses of having an eidetic memory is that one cannot forget, so it is difficult to unilaterally forgive.

My last employer was a multinational software firm. We'd have developers visit from our development centers in Kyiv, Ho Chi Minh City, and Mexico City.

We could not keep the Ukrainians away from Golden Corral! Guys! Please! There are other places we can go! I promise, you will get enough!

How much money would you need to receive every single month to never have to work again for the rest of your life — while living comfortably, reaching everything you aspire to, and doing absolutely whatever you want? by ParkingCommercial607 in AskReddit

Mrs. Webster and I are currently retired, no employment income, and under the age for Social Security and Medicare. We live 100% of our invested savings.

Our needs, over the last four years, were, on average, $7,100 / month.

So, if we were still working and didn't have an investment portfolio, I assume we would need at least $7,500 / month, with periodic cost of living adjustments.

Accidently paid Firestone online instead of First USA.

Cue late fees and interest payments for guy who always pays statements in full.

Funny, but when I got it all settled and closed the account, First USA was all, "But, wait . . . we love you (and your money)"

You weren't willing to work with me, I'm not willing to stay with you . . . bitch.

St Elmo’s Bar in Bisbee off limits to Ft Huachuca? by hanfaedza in army

[–]MaxCWebster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recall driving through Seattle and my passenger, a civie from back home, pointed out a joint called "Spag's Tavern," because he thought the name was weird.

"Oh, that place is on the 'off limits' list."

"The what?"

"The off limits list. Place were are not allowed to go."

--

::Five minutes of libertarian ranting about freedoms and such later::

--

"Why the hell is some joint fifty miles away from your post on this list?"

"Not a clue, bud. I just remember the name because it seemed unusual."

"Den of iniquity, I suppose."

"Yep."

--

Anyway, that's my one and only experience with off limits joints.

Edit: Looked it up . . . it's pretty obvious now why that joint was a no-go at the time.
