There is a reason I don’t subscribe to badposting.

The trick is to read and enjoy the same monster smut as she does. Then you can recreate scenes together.

Eh, we had big honking 4u rackmount Linux servers. Still PATA drives, though.

Adopt Crawler Carl’s motto: “You will not break me.”

Recognizing things is what Machine Learning is actually made for, and good at. The generative stuff is just a party trick.

Immediately upon hearing the kind of military contractor she worked for, I knew she had to be representing Huntsville. Rainbow imperialism is the most on-brand thing for Huntsville ever.

Loading dumped images was and is pretty common in the Lisp world. The old emacs dumper might have been extra hacky, though.

The street finds its own uses for things.

Poit!

I was expecting the real deterrent to be the bucket of concrete that cagers would try to run over thinking it was empty.

They have gotten too expensive in the last year, though. Wish other ARM SBCs were as widely supported.

Encourage her to get multiple cats. Thus will make the combination of cats and candles too great a fire hazard, and she will use them less and less.

Springtime for Hitler and Germany

Bon courage, comrade !
