Gentle reminder to everyone that support for ends in about 90 weeks. Many computers can't upgrade to Win 11 so here are your options:

  1. Continue on Win 10 but with higher security risks.
  2. Buy new and expensive hardware that supports Win11.
  3. Try a beginner friendly distro like . It only takes about two months to acclimate.

Malgas,

We, the gamers, the geeks, the golems

What does ‘golem’ mean in this context?

Malgas,

The width of a hydrogen atom is 3.1*10^24 Planck lengths. So, yeah, 65 digits of pi ought to do it.

anicent chinese wisdom is sometimes flawed (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

Description: Three panels. The first panel is a picture of a sign on a window with Chinese that tells people to not to throw things out the window. There is a poor English translation on the sign that says “Do not shit in the air like a god.” The second panel is D.W. from Arthur glaring at the sign. The third panel is D.W....

Malgas,

The image is pretty blurry, but I’m seeing:

窗户己限位请勿高空抛物

Which Google translate renders as “The windows are limited. Please do not throw objects at high altitudes.” Which still seems kind of mangled, but at least resembles something potentially reasonable.

Maybe someone who actually speaks the language will show up to help us out.

Malgas,

So is that a transcription error on my part, or is the original image nonsense?

Malgas,

Tofu is not exactly unprocessed.

Also is “minimally processed” more or less processed than “fresh caught”? I would assume more, but both pollack and Key West shrimp have the minimally processed version below the fresh caught version on this graph. (While White Gulf shrimp is the other way around and a much wider spread.)

Malgas,

I’m pretty fond of “unscheduled lithobraking” (it crashed).

Malgas,

Why did you build a death ray?

To take over the world.

No, I mean, what mad hypothesis are you testing? Are you just making mad observations?

Look, I’m just trying to take over the world. That’s all.

You’re at least going to leave some of the world as a mad control group, right?

Sad fact: most “mad scientists” are actually mad engineers.

(Borrowed from a Cowbirds in Love strip which at the time of this writing is inaccessible.)

Malgas,

Hadn’t learned to walk without rhythm yet.

“You got your Saturnalia on my Yule!”

“You got your Yule on my Saturnalia!”

Malgas,

I’m pretty sure it’s a ∂ lying on its front.

Malgas,

The presentation.

Malgas,

You don’t even have to go very far back to hit a time when scientists were called “natural philosophers”.

Malgas,

It annoys me that hardly any of Dresden’s needling of Cat Sith works when spoken aloud.

(Because that “sith” is pronounced “shee”; it’s the Scottish spelling of “sidhe”.)

Malgas,

Sometimes I wonder if I was around in the 60s if I’d hear more people bitch about her being a woman or her being black.

Not really important in the broader context, but I think Pike was talking about Una here.

Malgas,

Or replicate the parts needed to assemble an exact copy.

The Enterprise’s computer is Hex, confirmed:

++???++ Out of cheese error. Redo From Start

Malgas,

*Consuming raw or undercooked the rich may increase your risk of foodborne illness.

Malgas,

Wait, is that explicitly mentioned in the series? (Plausible, but I don’t remember it.)

Or is it just because there’s syncretism between Odin and Santa?

Malgas,

There’s a Technology Connections video where he cuts a hole in a dishwasher to install a plexiglass sheet. It leaked like hell, but you do get to see inside while it’s running.

Malgas,

Don’t hate me if I got the quote wrong.

I believe what Captain Archer actually said there was “The zone we will be venturing into is one of danger.”

Malgas,

Well, unless they mean:

Malgas,

For the uninitiated, free/libre is “free” as in “free speech”. As opposed to free/gratis, which is “free” as in “free beer”.
