Last week I tipped a friend off about an upcoming job opening that would have us living in the same town. The boss sees their resume tomorrow.

O Mighty Potato, grant me this boon.

Probably not criminal trespassing, since they are the owner of the property. It may fall under tenant harassment, unauthorized entry, constructive eviction, or other laws that pertain specifically to landlord/tenant relations.

Just stick your hands between your buttocks. That’s nature’s pocket.

Multiple HTTP requests can be performed over a single connection, and not all connections are for HTTP requests in the first place. The only way to know that an HTTP request is being made (or how many) is to actually see the requests.

It would be a privacy nightmare, of course. Either we would all have to install monitoring software on our devices, or we would have to allow ISPs to break HTTPS.

Assuming a ~20% shift towards pro-choice opinions I would expect more pro-choice laws, not an orgy of casual abortions.

Polling suggests that around 70% of women and 50% of men support abortion, though. If those stats simply reversed then nothing really changes.

I started using a white noise machine and fans on high when I lived down the block from a hospital emergency room. It sounded like a jet engine in my bedroom, but my brain learned to interpret the white noise as profound silence. I moved away from the hospital zone but still use the white noise to sleep.

I’m curious how it’s considered a “layoff” if it’s based on performance rather than the job itself being eliminated.

Case/chasis: 15 years and counting

Motherboard/CPU: ~5 years (currently: 6.5 years)

RAM: ~2 years until maxed out (currently: maxed out)

GPU: ~3-6 years (currently: 3 years)

I had hoped to do a new build last year, but it’s just too expensive. For now I’m planning to use what I have until it breaks.

The correct technical term is magic smoke.
