  • I like your schema. I’ve used something similar. My hosts have always been sci-fi space/time ships/stations, user accounts are characters from or Captain’s of said vessels. Over the years I’ve had a TARDIS, Serenity, Moya, Out of Bands II, Galactica, Millennium Falcon, Rocinante, etc. It’s usually whatever I happen to be discovering or binging at the time I setup the machine. For nearly a decade the TARDIS was my server/NAS because it was bigger on the inside that survived through several generations of smaller devices like laptops and raspberry Pi’s named after smaller lighter vessels like Serenity and Rocinante.

    It seems like a pretty good space filling method for a worm. Probably also has something to do with not eating away the leaf your worm body trailing behind you is clutching.

    What did you expect, the GilbertHilbert curve? Wait, is this actually a rough Hilbert curve?

    Edit: Gilbert? Why autocorrect? Why? I know no Gilberts. This is the first time I’ve ever intentionally typed Gilbert.




  • The tracksuit and matching Adidas sneakers are kind of a give-away. Anyone can buy a hi-vis vest. No way a security guard or worker would be dressed like that to do any real work up there. And absolutely no way they would risk their life or their job to stop some nutter getting their Darwin award. Even if successful, they’d be fired for exposing the company to liability. They’d just wait by the door and have them trespassed on their way out.


  • I find this take fascinating because, although I also like watching athletes and sports, I see the fandom and names as a huge soap opera cast. I just can’t keep up with any of it, the names, the injuries, the rivalries, the trades. It’s all just a bunch of banal meaningless drama to me that I will never have the enthusiasm to track. It’s all the same old shit from season to season with a rotating cast of hot young fools, just like General Hospital. As such I can’t talk sports with people. I can watch, but the events wash over me without the same meaning or substance. For that reason, flamboyant and over-the-top drama (like hot tempers, trash talking, and general mischief) that happens during play is actually interesting as long as it isn’t too unsportsman-like and doesn’t interfere with the game too much. The soap opera drama is boring, the sports is interesting, but the performance and affectations are spicy.

    To be clear, your take is totally valid and I’m not really critical of it at all. I just have a different perspective.


  • All baking recipes should be in mass for the dry ingredients and volume for the wet ingredients, definitely NOT weight. Because measuring flour by grams (mass) makes sense, but measuring flour by pounds (weight) is fucking stupid. Lots of people in this thread pretending to be smart by using SI units, but were apparently asleep in class when the teacher covered the difference between weight and mass. If you’re going to get picky about such a trifling difference between a volume of sugar and a certain mass of sugar at least get the details correct.
