I have that same printer and I’ve got similar issues, although it gets worse as it climbs instead of on the first layer. I wonder if it’s the motor going out.

“Wake up, man. We got places to be.”

His metamorphosis is complete. He is now a weekday.

Shelves that are already at maximum capacity. Anytime we get a new set we disassemble a Harry Potter set, but soon that won’t be an option and I guess I’ll need to find more shelves.

Must be a stepdad!

I think size is the biggest factor. OS ISOs are pretty big, so having a managed download is helpful. If the 100 GB triple-A games were open source I would certainly expect torrents. But the FOSS things I download directly are pretty small, and the vast majority are done through a package manager or docker compose. So there may be a Goldilocks zone in the middle where it’d be helpful, but in those cases I’d expect a small installer that downloads the bulk of it for you.

So not much benefit for the consumer, but what about the provider? Spreading the traffic would reduce load on the hosting server which is a positive. You’d still have to handle the bulk of the traffic until the seeders outpace the leechers, but on long enough timescales it’d be helpful. Except you can’t really update a torrent, which means each release needs to start fresh. This still works for OS creators because updates tend to be far apart, there is a large user base, and there is still some market for older versions. For regular programs you may only get one of those three, at which point adding torrents may be more hassle than it’s worth.

Thank you. I was a bit skeptical, but communism is such a boogeyman here and the RIAA (and MPAA) are so hilariously evil and out of touch that I was ready to fully believe it.

This is the face I make when my boss asks if I feel energized after taking a three day weekend.

“Chat, is this real?”

Surely he just means that he left the church and is no longer a pastor at… 18!

I heard the dev didn’t intend for those to stack and it’s nerfed in the next patch.

I’ve been trying to write a memoir and this is legitimately true. I have basically no concrete memory of my childhood, but when I start writing what I do remember it opens some floodgates. Admittedly I still have to fill in a lot of gaps with what I think is funniest.

The fact that it sounds so much like “papacy” is making me laugh extra hard at this for some reason.

Exactly what I was going to post. Classic John Mulaney.

If you’re not masturbating with me then you must be masturbating against me.

For a minute I thought you meant seasonal shapes, like mixing boxes of Paw Patrol mac with Thanksgiving turkey-shaped pasta.

I was all over that until the raisins. Disgustayn!

I’ve never had a download tagged as SuccessfulCrab that wasn’t malware. I don’t know enough about them to know if that’s their fault or the indexers’.

Same here. I wasn’t great before, but I’m actually super fast at anything below 45 now.
