  1. Defense attorney in a murder case during his opening statement:

    "Cross-examination is sometimes the biggest cut into the tapestry to look at the crucible of truth that's emerged."

  2. 1. It is illegal to put living people on the coin. #kthxbye

    2. He picked his mugshot for the relief. #lolwut

    So the Felon in Chief is now illegally on the 1-dollar featuring his mugshot. How very fitting...

    The rise of #FascistAmerica is such a joke.

    A cruel joke that could strangle the world.

    I saw a shrike here once
    Perched up there on that wire
    It was a cloudy day in twenty-twenty-four

    It was the second time
    That species graced my lens
    But thanks to iNat I know how to ID them today!

    "Well-respected people like Ph.D.s ..."

    Okay, ya.

    "... and CEOs."

    lolwut?

    The only people who respect CEOs are people whose own job title starts with the word "Chief". And that respect is mostly just thinly-veiled covetousness.

  6. I'm genuinely not sure how to describe this. It's a bunch of experimental electronic music vaguely themed around frogs, but it's what I'm listening to today...

    Apparently it's the second such album. I learned about it through the ubiktune bandcamp

  7. Something Europeans will find confusing: North American banks have online void check* generators to create images of cheques so you can send them to companies to get your direct debit details. I used most of my first chequebook in Canada writing void cheques just for this. You have to pay for chequebooks, too!

    *: or cheque: an obsolete form of payment beloved of that old person in front of you in the queue.

  8. “Spirit,” said Scrooge, after a moment’s thought, “I wonder you, of all the beings in the many worlds about us, should desire to cramp these people’s opportunities of innocent enjoyment.”

    “I!” cried the Spirit.

    “You would deprive them of their means of dining every seventh day, often the only day on which they can be said to dine at all,” said Scrooge. “Wouldn’t you?”

    “I!” cried the Spirit.

    (Link explains what the heck Scrooge is talking about)

  11. "Asked about climate change, #Trump bragged that when he was president, “We had H2O. We had the best numbers ever.” Indeed, what happened to H2O? Just a memory now."

  12. HP can't figure it out, so I'm supposed to ship it to them and leave Mom without a laptop for 10 - 14 business days.

  13. TIL: In C++, if you have a unique_ptr as a member variable, pointing to a forward-declared class, you have to put the body of the destructor somewhere after where the class is actually declared.

    You've completely lost me with that assertion.

    You prolly don't remember when we did #Gentoo installs from "Stage 1,2,3" tarballs, or when one of the oldest Linux Distros, "Sorcerer Linux" spawned other source based distro forks like #SourceMage, and #Lunar_Linux, yet I fail to glean what the heck your referring to when you relate these to SystemD... I mean.... Huh?
