Today is the 11,067th day of Eternal September (en.wikipedia.org)

Eternal September or the September that never ended is Usenet slang for a period beginning around 1993 when Internet service providers began offering Usenet access to many new users. The flood of new users overwhelmed the existing culture for online forums and the ability to enforce existing norms. AOL followed with their Usenet...

Never was a cloudy day.

“Oh no, not again”

That doesn’t bode well for my plan to get the Open.

not_woody_shaw,

Whose left? If I’m lying on my left side do I go straight down?

not_woody_shaw,

You have to go cross-eyed to see it.

not_woody_shaw,

They do but they don’t matter because of sales tax and tips.

Brought to you by the twin principles of star math and wishy thinking!

I don’t know what it is but I understand how big it is

I don’t think he knows about second edge, Pip.

Oppan Gangnam style!

That’s a lot of wasabi

America's nonreligious are a growing, diverse phenomenon. They really don't like organized religion (apnews.com)

Mike Dulak grew up Catholic in Southern California, but by his teen years, he began skipping Mass and driving straight to the shore to play guitar, watch the waves and enjoy the beauty of the morning. “And it felt more spiritual than any time I set foot in a church,” he recalled....

They peed on The Dudes rug.

While I agree with you that some people here seem to have the misconception that this is a place for tech support, that comma placement is… mildlyinfuriating.

not_woody_shaw,

What was the name of that thing before they gave it the skypeful makeover and added a bunch of useless annoying features? It was actually pretty good back then. Every redesign since then it’s been getting worse and worse.

Edit: I just remembered it was called Lync.

not_woody_shaw,

The desktop app won’t work on my machine because it ALWAYS tries to connect to my ActiveDirectory account, but my company doesn’t use Teams so that always fails. It says it can be configured to use a personal account but it lies, and always goes for the AD first. I’m forced to use the web client for any meeting that requires Teams.

not_woody_shaw,

I’m still liking DS Get. I choose torrent files on my phone then hand off the download to the NAS.

not_woody_shaw,

My little NAS is too feeble to run the 'aars :-(

Is there gas is the caaaaaar?

How did the quote go? Are we in danger? Nah you’re looking at a slow motion replay.

The Heart of Gold, from The Hitchhikers Guide. Plot armour taken to its most literal extreme.

Does the American accent or British accent sound better?

I grew up with a thick Australian accent with a drawl I dislike, and have been consciously trying to change it for a while. The problem is I tried to make it sound more American at first but keep getting drawn to speaking “Britishly”. Now it’s a Frankenstein of all 3 accents and I don’t know what to go with....

I met this dude who could speak fluent Spanish with a thick Scottish accent. It was the funniest thing.

Another day, another product joining the Google graveyard. On the upside, this time it's not a messaging app.

From The Verge:

"You might remember Google had a $5,000 Jamboard whiteboarding meeting room display — well, that’s also discontinued. The Jamboard hardware will no longer receive software updates on September 30th, 2024, and its license subscriptions will expire the same day.

"Then users will have until December 31st, 2024, to back up Jam their files, and on that date, Google will cut off access and begin permanently deleting files."

Pity the schools, universities, and businesses that paid Google $5000 for a "smart" whiteboard, only to now be told their files will be deleted.

And Chromecast Audio.

Is there an app with minimal unobtrusive advertising?

not_woody_shaw,

And you can often find the EXACT same items on eBay for a tenth of the price.

Woohoo! Now they can start on Mindhunter s3!

What's your favorite Enigma / Riddle / Sentence Puzzle?

Tomorrow is a big event at my university. I’d like to make a fun thing where the people of the Board Game society I am in can try to find me for a riddle, kind of a Where is Waldo in a place where there is a crap tone of people to find the NPC that’ll give them a Riddle (Maybe something to win? No idea how I could do that...

not_woody_shaw,

You’re in a square room with a window in each wall. All the windows face south. Thru one of the windows you can see a bear. What colour is the bear?

not_woody_shaw,

Is that a Zardoz reference?

not_woody_shaw,

Maybe not ALL 5k. We can skip the filler episodes.

Caf before decaf. More coffee for me.

I think that movie was the original reason why George became my favourite Beatle.

Not a lot of overlap between ensembles with walking bass lines, and ensembles with conductors.
