A reasonable concern but also a shame, because data is data and PornHub has a massive userbase. I trust Backblaze stats for hard drives because they just have a shit-ton of real-world metrics. I'm inclined to trust PornHub stats for the same reason.

My brain goblins love refactoring. I love taking a rusty pile of shit and making it shine. I want to polish something old, or build something completely new. Adding features to existing code is the part I hate.

How alone am I in disliking the word "allistic"? To me it feels like an outgrowth of a persecution fetish, literally defining an outgroup. Especially since it has zero mainstream adoption, where "non-autistic" is immediately clear to anyone.

I think this is funny, but it's hard for me to hate too much on flatpaks. Disk space is practically free now, and having spent a good chunk of my career fighting DLL hell, I have a lot of sympathy for the problem it's trying to solve.

Janeway and Seven in the delta quadrant. Janeway, her eyes closed. Janeway at court, the court of silence. Seven of Nine on the ocean.

Good lord, is she always that stunningly pretty?

I've never watched more than a few episodes of Enterprise. Is it worth the investment? Is there a cut of it with that godforsaken theme song removed, or replaced with something more palatable like two dozen screaming goats?

Juggalos are ridiculous, but it bothers me that "Miracles", the song that line is from, was so widely mocked. I know Shaggy and Violent J aren't Nobel laureates, but that song in its entirety makes a wonderfully valid point.

Wisdom doesn't always come down from on high. Sometimes it can be found in a Faygo-soaked mass of Juggalos gathered at a place nicknamed "Lake Hepatitis".

Oh. Thank you for accidentally explaining this to me.

Just did. First time in my life a fucking meme ever spurred me to action.

It might actually be worse now. Today we wouldn't have a woman at the Sciences table.

We hang so much on this imaginary idea that intelligence alone can solve all our woes, but intelligence isn't covariant with wisdom or compassion. Josef Mengele had two doctorates.

I'm too sad to remember things tonight, but I feel like we've seen multiple scenes of Klingons praising... let's call it "tactical bravado".
