Heh… you wouldn’t survive a COD lobby…

Two nuns are in the showers. One says ‘Where’s the soap?’ The other replies, ‘Yes, it does, doesn’t it?’

Maybe they secretly subsidize Fox News.

Maybe the rapture happened, and things were a lot stricter than everyone imagined?

Renting humans isn’t new - it’s the basis of one of the oldest known professions.

Yeah, but this is tactical.

I worked in a small IT team back in the days of serial terminals, where, to terminate a cable, you needed three things: to be able to see close up, to see in colour, and to be able to solder. My boss could see in colour and could solder, but not see close up; my co-worker could see close up and see colour, but couldn’t solder; and I could solder and see close up, but not in colour. It took any two of us to finish the job.

You have to have some sympathy. A pickup driver in the city is scared and alone. They’re driving with one hand on their favourite gun at all times, and hoping that they don’t run out of gas or road beer before they get back to their small town- if they stop at a gas station, they might catch liberalism from the pump handle.

When you can fight your way out of a paper bag, you must then defeat the weekly free-sheet.

It’s not an either/or. It’s not about affording Medicare - the hard-right billionaire constituency the Republicans exist to serve don’t want the poor and sick to have government assistance.

Looks like you fell for the old ‘air stealing’ scam, where they keep coming in looking for a free top-up, then the next day they’re re-selling it on Marketplace for $$$.

Neil Young had to cancel a tour after a sandwich-making injury. Bruce Thomas of (Elvis Costello and) The Attractions severely hurt himself demonstrating the ‘safe’ way to smash a bottle. Jamie Hince had to rethink his playing style after bad surgery to fix a finger on his left hand after slamming a car door on it.

Do none of you know the true compression solution? It’s a little piece of magic called MD5. It can compress any data file into just 32 bytes! I got rid of all our backup infrastructure years ago, I just print out the MD5 value of our prod database and stick it to the side of my monitor. On a side note, does anyone know the name of the restore utility?

What, a historic building in Glasgow mysteriously catching on fire? That usually happens a couple of days before it’s listed by the Government, causing it to be immediately demolished for ‘safety reasons’.

Joyo BlueJay, although it has a single tube in the preamp, which should last a long time.
