AWS has DNS issues on the reg and no one talks about it. I know we expect failure, but when did we start accepting it?

I don't know, but I do know that Californian and South Western "Mexican" food predates both Mexico and the US, recent historical influences, including beef, notwithstanding. It's local food made with local produce. I wish someone would tell the East Coast about chili peppers.

It did, though. In the era of Knight Rider, it wasn't the network you know today, but systems regularly exchanged email, for example, through direct links. Hobbyist BBSes were a huge part of that.

Just saying that folks were literally making that same joke on another fess. And yes, mass shootings are an urgent public health crisis in the US.

Yeah, but you're a little late with that reply.

The more I read fesshole the more I wonder why so many Brits do not wash their asses.

I'm with you. I miss late nights on local BBSes and paging through the tractor-fed logs of my own board the next day. But mostly I miss the hours spent in LaDraw on the Amiga and TheDraw on the PC. ACiDDraw was the proverbial sunset on that scene. I've forgotten what I used on the C64.

Definitely don't want to kill your vibe--the tool looks awesome!--but if you're interested in the turn of the century state of the art, check out www.acid.org/apps/apps.html. Hand optimizing ANSI animation was a blast. Really! I loved the zen of working with escape sequences.

It's ANSI cool, but is it PETSCII cool? Needs something like a Color 64 BBS door interface.

"Auditing" is taking a class for no credit at no cost other than your personal time and any required texts or materials. The extent to which you participate in exams and such may vary.

Touchรฉ, although Kids in the Hall cornered the market on that jab. For context, auditing allows unenrolled students to take classes for no credit, i.e., you audit the class, usually at no cost. But security guards outside classrooms aren't unheard of. We're gun-toting psychopaths.

I'm in the US. Is auditing not a thing in the UK?

Let's not forget defunding the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, the organization that literally funded stations representing community values. It's obviously not about that.

It's generally worse at pharmacies, where they prefer to bill a provider that can "afford" outrageous prices for common generics.

AI would have used a semicolon between "brushing" and "they." I hope.

Here, too, but what's off-putting about adult apple juice with bubbles?

I'm thrown because I don't know sports at all, and this feels like a Bob Einstein story.

That sold out quickly. But I wonder how many US fans will be disappointed by unshipped items or unpredictable duties?

I just asked ChatGPT, and it gave me 20+ perfectly serviceable fesses. Thinking the actual Feeshole has better than even odds of being real is its only value-add. AI destroys almost everything.

But I enjoy seeing how wrong the overview is. I especially enjoy when it makes up programming language features and syntax that don't exist.

I disable autocorrect, autoformat, smart replacement, etc. everywhere, and the double hyphen will continue to punctuate my clauses strongly, exclusively, steadfastly.

I'm still amazed that people chat with the software in the first place. Then I wonder if it's me. Does my failure to anthropomorphize the thing mean I lack empathy, or is the thing just tickling something in them in a way that's repulsive to me? I'm not a Luddite. I eat, breathe, and sleep software.

I've ordered mine "over medium" for decades. Am I doing it wrong? Fried, slightly crispy on the edges, a little runny in the middle.
