I just mowed (parts of) my lawn. Left some clumps of different wildflowers standing, dandelions included.

I’m glad my neighbourhood does not have a Lawn Enforcement Agency.

Finally, someone called manual transmission “normal”!

It was Yah-son, though, not Dgay-son. Probably.

Of course!

You need to have evolutionary pressure to have directed evolution, and “alcoholism is a disadvantage” is as good as any. By drinking more, one reduces their and their kids’ chances to survive, making those alcoholic genes less frequent.

By the way, I hear propensity to alcoholism is also an inheritable trait.

From birth to death.

My bed, normally, with a rare nap on the couch. Why would anyone sleep on food?

It’s easier and faster to learn by printing out the keyboard layout. Leave the old keycaps in place. This will teach you not hunt-and-peck straight from beginning.

Also it’s a priceless defense against coworkers GIMME THAT KEYBOARDing you.

When I read the title, my first thought was: “Must have gotten it out via liposuction, but how does the replacement go in?”

Then the obvious hit me - just drink the new oil.

Pretty fast. Not myself, an ambulance driver wanted to get to a nurse’s birthday party - and back - during their lunch break, or somenhing. Sirens wailing.

Me too. What would I do with it, anyway.

Started learning Common Lisp. Making good progress through Exercism, with some Codewars mixed in. It’s fun so far.

mpv can play youtube URLs on commandline.

Rsync can do incremental backups with a command-line switch and some symlink jugglery. I’m using it to back up my self-hosted stuff.

I have an Egyptian coworker (immigration laws, yay) and I’d not call his skin color brown (as in “brown bear” brown). More like a rather well tanned local person. I’d have a hard time calling him non-white, unless in comparison with an Irish person or something…

What kind of skin did He have anyway? The Jews I’ve seen (admittedly not many) were pretty light-skinned (though with dark hair).
