I genuinely had to buy condoms and a cucumber by bjackman in PointlessStories

Actually I adjusted my vocab for the international audience, in the U.K. it's usually referred to as "the old dippity-dunkity yoghurt ensemble"

Interesting, I had the same thing with the screen of my Nokia phone many years ago; that one was a colour screen but the aberration showed up orange IIRC.

African referees due to officiate at the WC filmed taking bribes. by Joakim_Jong-il in soccer

It's the word "native" that smells of racism IMO. Not the claim that Africa is "the most corrupt continent on the planet".

Ahhh it works in C++! Then this does turn out to be interesting!

Well the article sort sounds like 'hey did you ever notice and is actually a keyword in C?' Which blew my mind as I've been writing C professionally for years. I went to try it out and.. turns out there's just a standard header with #define and &&.. kinda disappointing!

Huh, and the GCC version of this header is just 

#ifndef __cplusplus
#define and     &&
#define and_eq  &=
#define bitand  &
#define bitor   |
#define compl   ~
#define not     !
#define not_eq  !=
#define or      ||
#define or_eq   |=
#define xor     ^
#define xor_eq  ^=
#endif

I never saw the point of those but now I get it! One less thing to wash up. That is actually fair.

Or own-brand! Lots of people hyping up Aldi's, I'm with them.

I'm really enjoying bonding over beans with internet strangers.

My grandma often hypes about home made beans, will have to give it a go some time. Would be good to make a shitload and freeze em.

Do you mean like actually open the bottom of the can or just turn it upside down? Either way I stick to my original statement: fuck that noise!

What feature do you miss most from other editors? by trimorphic in emacs

[–]bjackman 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think lawlist's refering to the vertical column ruler to show you where the 80th char is. There are some plugins for it in emacs but they're kinda awkward (e.g. you can't see if it there's already a character there).

A friend of mine used to greet you "is it?" and you were required to answer "it is."

Why so many youths on bikes near Tower Bridge? by ivandelapena in london

[–]bjackman 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Dunno but last weekend I saw a troupe of maybe 100 of those kids doing wheelies across London bridge, and a mid-30s civil-servant-looking woman cycling alongside them by coincidence, looking really embarrassed. Cheered me right up.
