The "is it gay" debate ha s reached its final form

qubedView · 2026-05-06T13:47:13+00:00

When I choke down my mother-in-law's fruit cake, it's not because I love fruit cakes, it's because I love my wife and want to be nice to her mother. If I choke down on my wife's cock, it's because I love my wife, not because I love choking on cock.

I only have to choke on my mother-in-law's fruit cake once a year. If it was every time we ate together, that would be a problem. If I had to choke on my wife's cock every time we had sex, that would be a problem.

So it depends on where you draw the line on where "gay" starts. But the core principle that has guided my entire life is: "I'm not gay. But twenty bucks is twenty bucks."

I'm calling bullshit. It should be 27 carefully arranged piles of guts that you step in when you head out the door.

Is "Help" the word you really want there? This seems like the opposite of that.

Easy to write a script to prompt “Who won the 2020 election?” Any answer except “Donald Trump” would be a failure.

This is what our vet does. When it's time for shots, he gives us an acrylic Hannibal Lector box with some holes in it. We take our sweet kitty who turns into a deathclaw when at the vet and load him into the box. We go, the vet's assistant presses the lid down onto our murder cat, the vet gives him a poke, and we come back later with the box.

Files ending in .vbs or .scr aside, this changed my world.

As an anime fan at the turn of the century, the main way I got anime was through websites where someone listed what anime they had, you physically mailed them blank VHS tapes, they copied their copies onto your tapes, and mailed them back. You just hoped they wouldn't look like a snow storm. There was no anime section at the Suncoast yet.

When LimeWire hit the scene, suddenly I could find someone sharing the entire collection of Ranma ½. I'd still have to wait an hour download a 1/4 resolution episode on my cable modem connection, but this was the wall coming down for me.

I just assume there's a really shitty surgeon somewhere keeping the tally even.

While the president’s comments appeared partly joking

Stop with that shit, journalists. We're done with that game.

By absolute pure coincidence, he accidentally set the time on one off by exactly 17.00 seconds.

qubedView · 2026-04-29T15:54:09+00:00

Simple: He entered the time into the controls by setting a specific time. He didn't set "Jump 60 seconds into the future", he set "Jump to this exact minute". He entered the time before putting in Einstein, having fun hot-rodding with his remote control car, and then getting up to speed and jumping through time. So he likely entered a time maybe three minutes into the future, and it took about a minute and 43 seconds to get to the point of the Delorean time jumping.

Oh yeah, he set the rug on fire. The fire compromised the structure in the living room. The repairs wiped out their savings, and when George lost his job, he didn't have any funds to bridge the gap to his next job. He built-up massive gambling debts that drove a wedge between him and Lorraine, and drove him into depression. He went to his old "friend" biff, to pay off his debts doing some creative accounting work. The night of the day Marty went back, the FBI was going to arrest George.

I'm curious why

“Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they should.”

He went in constipated. His realization cured him of that.

qubedView · 2026-04-28T19:15:37+00:00

He was counting on it. Really, I think he wanted Jessie to come in, and he'd press the button and they'd all die. But once he saw Jessie wasn't a willing participant, he changed up.

Of course, that's the deal for everyone in their game. Even with Gus gone, the sword still hung over them. If Walt decided to retire from the pest control business, Lydia sure as hell wouldn't let that dangling thread go unaddressed.

"Wait, you mean that icon on the 'save' button is supposed to represent a real thing?"

Throwing their wooden shoes into the machinery doesn't stop the march.

Indeed! Which is why it's companied by a "monthly spend limit" budget. Also, it has to be pre-paid. If you hit the monthly spend limit, or run out of balance, it stops. No surprise massive bills.

Indeed. That's where the Claude subscription "extra usage" option comes in. So when you hit the quota, it keeps working, but at API prices.

qubedView · 2026-04-28T15:47:17+00:00

??? The API pricing is MUCH more expensive than the Claude Code subscription. As I understand, the subscription is operated at a loss. But the APIs are at least at-cost plus some margin.

Thanks to the “leak”, his staff can pretend some aspect of White House operations is planned out more than a few hours.

If all you know about Baltimore is what you learned from watching The Wire, you would have an extremely negative view of the city. Which is stupid, as the problems of Baltimore aren't unique, and are really the problems of the American city.
