England were terrible against Scotland last week. Somehow they are even worse against Ireland.
They can't even complete fundamentals and Ford is once more lacking.

That moment when you've spent hours changing code and then find a better way to implement what you want to do.

Yeah, that's a huge part of it too. All the rural build out money went to starlink as the government rewrote the project funding criteria to basically eliminate any chance of another company possibly winning a bid. It's not talked about much,sadly.

Cost break even often decides whether they'll actually run fiber. It's also possible they got government money to trench and duct and that's all they needed to do for it.

Same here. We're going to go to the HOA and see if we can get an approval and then a portion of the neighborhood to sign up for fiber as an alternative.

Comcast with a nothing sentence that doesn't even make sense, 6 hours into an outage:

"Your Xfinity service interruption should be resolved as soon as possible"

Photo from national lampoons Christmas vacation where cousins Eddie stands in the snow wearing a short cloth bath robe, socks, and shoes.. I'm the movie he's saying "shitters full" which relates to the RV he's been traveling in.

Paraphrasing why my flight isn't boarding yet "shitters broke"

Photo of car rental booths. On the left, Budget and on the right Avis. Between their computerized signs is a bios screen for ami American Megatrends. Probably a computer behind the scenes is having boot issues.

I think I shall rent my car from American Megatrends

I'm rapidly starting to come to the conclusion there's no ethical way to engage in online discourse or even consume media.
That said, Zuckerberg is one of the people at the peak of the "nope" iceberg.

Are there places that don't remove the scent or that add a different scent?

The packaging of my toilet paper says it's unscented. This tells me that somewhere there is scented toilet paper.

Such a delight to have The Gargle back and in the first episode of season 2, Alison Spittle who I have missed so much pew,pew,pew

I guess there's an AWS issue because Alaska Airlines can't board people.

I have mostly decoupled my ebook purchases from Amazon (despite the many steps it takes to get books on to my kindle). Now I'm stuck where some authors, whose work I get often, that only publish via Amazon. Either I stop reading them or continue with a kindle and cumbersome process.

That's disappointing

Did Star Trek: Starfleet Academy just eliminate the Star Trek comic books as cannon?

I feel so bad for her. She's just trying her best and everything turns to hell around her. Everything she touches causes pain. And none of it her fault.

I learned the other day that mouthwash has "no theraputic properties" and that it can cause tartar build up and staining.

My hygenist told me to stop using it. I looked at the dentist, somewhat aghast. She backed her up.

Big mouthwash is lying to us.

Oh, she is in no way ready for that.

I don't understand how Usman Tariq's delivery is legal. #t20worldcup

Imagine how bad a game of Football would be if you only had white players.

Also - from October, Discord announced a data breach of 70,000 user by one of their third-party services that handled age verification - discord.com/press-releas...

You'll get a finger bruise tapping that sign. You should have some function that does a check on MS cloud resources that then calls to a mechanical device to tap the sign.
For obvious reasons, you would run that function in AWS.

I will find out the Superbowl winner by the volume of fireworks and gunfire. It's not great.

I haz an envy.

July 4th would like a word 😂

A decacorn? You're aiming low.
