Perl was once described as “the swiss army chainsaw of scripting languages.” For a second I thought they meant Larry Wall. I associate Matt Trout more with his libraries and the Catalyst framework. Definitely a Perl guru tho. RIP, buddy.
Taking a break from running a TV camera at an event, I said to another camera operator who was in a wheelchair, “It feels great to get out of there and just walk around!” He considered this for a moment and just replied, “Yeah.”
Title of your sex tape!
I could totally see this being sold in a booth at a Con.

It had no business being made, so it wasn’t.
Good catch! The internet loves simpe rules for whether somebody deserves a black hat or a white hat without pesky details like a thought process.
I was wrong to call you the Psych 101 student, since you weren’t doing the Psych 101 student behavior I described. “They’re not the same thing” is more of a typical social media comment from someone who simply likes to argue, as you’re continuing to do. Not interested.
I would just turn the machine back on and wait longer.
Found the Psych 101 student.
I would defy anyone to distinguish between the smirk the article describes - “a half-smile where one side of the lip lifts slightly” from the google definition of smirk - “a facial expression characterized by a subtle, often one-sided, upward curving of the mouth, often without showing teeth.”
Article goes on to say the same smirk is also a non-narcissist’s sign of satisfaction at seeing justice served.
So will you be the Psych 101 student who is suddenly a psychoanalyst and labels people because they smirk, or will you understand that something you saw on lemmy doesn’t equip you to judge anyone?
In the early 60s my teenage cousin constantly held a “transistor radio” like this up to her ear, listening to top 40 stations. I bet it sounded similar.
Buying used panties from onlyfans sites.
Yeah I think we have enough textbook examples of that already tho.
Grass in the butt!
Well that had a surprise ending.
<Page Not Found> on your link. But yeah it would be great if competition were about improvements.
No confusion at all, I was talking about car company bailouts only, since the other person mentioned “all the bailouts US car manufacturers received”. I think the Bush/Obama thing you’re referring to was TARP, which was for financial institutions.
To clarify, the bailouts of US car companies were Chrysler around 1980 and GM and Chrysler around 2008. To help them avoid bankruptcy and the resulting loss of jobs, they received loan guarantees (like having a cosigner) and direct loans, all of which they paid back. I think the public generally has a misconception that a corporate “bailout” means they just giving them money, but it doesn’t.
Note - I’m not trying to convince you not to hate corporations, and there’s no need for a lecture on how evil they are, I know they are. Just clarifying that one topic.
I’m not sure how repairable EVs are either, since my 2013 Leaf never needed repairs in 12 years. Just tires and wiper blades.
There’s a really old movie about an eccentric woman who gets awestruck at one point when she spots a workman in overalls with a loop like this - typically used to carry a hammer. She breathlessly explains that “the loop” is the sign of a true master with in-depth knowledge and experience, almost like he’s part of a priesthood. I have no idea what movie it is. I can picture her face vividly but can’t come up with a name.
