I was doing well, making progress on my work projects. Then bam, my wife gets severe vertigo, which leaves her unable to move or look at screens without vomiting. She needs care, our dog needs walking, and work emergencies keep popping up. I don't resent her, I have my own chronic pain and health problems. I just wish I could jump back into work without staring blankly at the screen for hours. Which I can't do because I get interrupted by caring for my wife.

Sorry for the dump.

I haven't read anything about what hamas thought would happen after the October 7th attack. Did they think Israel would do nothing because hamas had hostages?

Or were they trying to prompt a huge response? Certainly the abhorrent despicable acts perpetrated against women that were detailed in the article are something no one would ignore. Similar to Bucha in Ukraine, the horror won't make people surrender, just the opposite.

This article felt weirdly exploitative to me. Like, leave the young woman alone to heal in peace.

Gotta communicate to their base that it's really ok to stab 6 year olds dozens of times if they are of Palestinian heritage.

Mullvad because they don't need your name, and you can pay by cash anonymously.

Everyone religious wakes up tomorrow realizing that it's just a social club and none of the god stuff is real.

If I win I'll give everyone in this thread a million dollars.

So, if there's 60 people in the thread, everyone gets $16,667

I see you all fell for my cunning ruse. Definitely not something I figured out after I posted. Not at all.

What an absolute asshole monster

That Times article should come with a trigger warning, it contains descriptions of the assaults.

Lisp. All is Lisp.

Data's entire consciousness was written as an Emacs package.

Klingons program in Brainfuck. A Warrior's Language!

Vulcans exclusively use APL.

The F in Ferengi stands for Fortran.

Python is banned across the known galaxy. If your race is discovered using it, your planet is immediately bombarded until the entire crust is molten.

Cardassians use Haskell because they're evil.
