Tell me your favorite line from Futurama?

    • This is the worst part: the calm before the battle...oh wait! I forgot about the battle!
    • Some of you will be forced through a fine mesh screen for your planet. Those men are the bravest of all...
    • Please, gentlemen, we've all seen too many body bags and ball sacks.
    • That wasn't cowardice!

  • What book(s) are you currently reading or listening? October 15
  • Really enjoying this series, too. (wanderinginn.com) Amazing amount of output from the author, and while there's no way you can enjoy every plot thread (I just don't care for Flos), it's amazing how often I get excited when a new chapter starts from a new perspective.

    Personally, I'm also working on "When the Clock Broke" https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/195790601-when-the-clock-broke and "This America of Ours" https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/58311951-this-america-of-ours

    Both are interesting reads, but "America" is definitely largely lighter material ..(wild, given it's about McCarthy-era politics)

  • Replace `pyenv` with `uv` - Franck Pommereau - Blog
  • I've enjoyed uv so far. Definitely snappy. And I appreciate that they stuck with pyproject.toml for config. It pulled in some nice stuff from pipenv (sync and update are clear commands that do expected things).

    Quick complaint: I wish the python ecosystem hadn't landed on toml for package config. I've never liked toml config files; always found them confusing.

  • What is your favorite movie of all time?
  • Buckaroo Banzai will forever live near the top of my list...

  • What's the most petty/pointless/pedantic hill you're willing to die on?
  • A weird nit for me...but isn't that what ellipses are for? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ellipsis

    Depending on context, ellipsis can indicate an unfinished thought, a leading statement, a slight pause, an echoing voice, or a nervous or awkward silence.

  • Real examples here?
  • "He has since grown up into a very hansom man who runs Azure which sucks."

    Thanks for this. Really brightened my day.

    Others more sporadically.

  • Linux "Anti"-Piracy Screen
  • OS X is (at this point loosely) based on BSD. I think you can still get Darwin (the open source part of OS )X somewhere...

  • Wood smells like we should be able to eat it, but we can't.
  • Don't be bringing brass instruments into this...

  • Reject reality
  • So Bruce Springsteen wrote the original version of "Blinded By the Light". But Manfred Mann's version was the one that was a huge hit. And Mann's version does say "wrapped up like a douche" (versus Springsteen saying "revved up like a duce").

    I saw an interview with Springsteen where he speculated that was the biggest writing mistake he'd made. If only he'd said "wrapped up like a douche", maybe his version would have sold better.
