I didn’t really say either of those, at least in the post. What’s your point?

From Wikipedia St John Pettifor Catchpool (1890–1971), English Quaker relief worker St. John Ellis (1964–2005), British Rugby League player St John Ervine (1883-1971), Irish writer St John Groser (1890-1966), Anglican priest and Christian socialist St John Hornby (1867–1946), British businessman St John Horsfall (1910-1949), British motor racing driver St John Brodrick, 1st Earl of Midleton (1856–1942), British politician St John O’Neill (1741–1790), Irish MP for Randalstown Saint-John Perse, pseudonym of Alexis Leger (1887–1975), French poet and diplomat St John Philby (1885–1960), British civil servant and explorer in Arabia

Perhaps not precisely “sinjin”. Wikipedia gives the IPA as /ˈsɪndʒɪn/ or /-ʒən/ where the ʒ is the g in beige or the s in pleasure so it’s a bit more of a zh sound than a j sound: “sinzhin”

I sent a link to my local TV meteorologist. Will update if I hear back.

I’d make it unlawful for any entity including the U.S. gov’t to profit from the suffering of others. This would, of course, immediately crash the economy. Suffering is our leading export.

Not embarrassing or thrilling, but way back when I still ate meat, I’m pretty sure Waffle House tried to kill me with a bad batch of Bert’s chili. At least, that was the featured odor/flavor in all my bodily effluvium (which was copious!) in the several succeeding days. I didn’t die but I do remember wishing I was dead. The experience turned me into a Waffle House skeptic and shortly thereafter, a vegetarian.

If by graphics card you mean 3D hardware acceleration, then it was a Canopus Pure 3D. It was equivalent to the first Voodoo add-in card but IIRC it had 6 MB of RAM instead of 4. It wasn’t a standalone card so it had a VGA passthrough from your 2D card when it wasn’t active.

As for 2D cards, idk. Unless it was pro reference grade like Matrox I don’t remember EGA and CGA cards being branded.

Fuck driving. You’d be lucky to get me off the couch. 😆

Obviously ACAB, but…I have known a few jackasses who thought nothing of driving while high. Just don’t. And don’t reply to me about how you “know your tolerance” or that you can “handle it”. Fuck you, you’re impaired. Don’t do it.

DOM me daddy ✌🏻

Would that be pronounced KED or KWED I wonder? Or maybe just a large belch. 😆

Yes ugh 😩

Well played.

How do you find these numbers?

BTW, this was easy to find in the default interface for my instance (Settings > Block tab) but I still can’t find it on Photon. 😆

That’s fine as long as you don’t spell out the periods. 😆

By the by, I’d love to be the guy with the confidence to end an argument with “thus it is proven”. That’d be epic. I think I’ve only ever used QED humorously or ironically.

Ha serves me right ✌🏻

So many things. In written form, I hate when someone writes “Period.” after they make a point to mean “this can’t be argued” or whatever. My good bitch, I don’t think you understand how arguing works. 😆

“Full stop” is a close second.

Colonizers stick together.

I ran into this today using ssh-copy-id on a new Debian box. Seems like that tool is biased toward copying a second key instead of a first. Either that or they assume most users use one key pair everywhere (and thus only have one loaded in their agent). I use one key pair per user per box. Excessive? 🤔

I agree that this is a really important job. The wife and I usually enable subtitles on English content (our first language) any time accents are involved. Watched Shakespeare & Hathaway on BritBox recently and the English subs were glorious. They used a different background color for each character which I found extremely helpful, and the accuracy was quite good.

Sadly this is not universally true for Britbox content. Hartnell-era Doctor Who seems to be based on the scripts as it occasionally deviates significantly from the lines as delivered.

Father Brown is sort of middling and appears to be auto-generated in that the subs are mostly right but any errors are obviously homophonic and would have been caught with human review.
