“Neat.”

Abracadabra… Allakhazam!

This flag has fringe on it, therefore all proceedings are null and void due to the fact that we are on land and not at sea, ipso facto, post mortem, carpe diem, and allahu akhbar.

Ha! That’s wild. You can literally just buy it at the farm store in town here.

I’m sure it’s far cheaper there too.

That’s certainly… An opinion.

There’s always something at least a little off about anybody who earns a PhD.

I’ve met a lot of them, and some of them are good at hiding it, but it’s always something…

Might be. I remember them being marketed as “no return rentals”

I startled my dogs laughing at that last bit.

Last time I dealt with Matlab much was like fifteen years ago when I was helping some people using it for quick interpretation of data. We just kept finding bugs that caused calculation errors (which they fixed pretty quickly TBF) and it was so much slower than any other general programming language we tried. It could be way better now, I wouldn’t know, I haven’t had call to use it since… A circuit simulation class?

In all reality it’s fine for what it does, just like every other language. It’s another tool in the box that’s most useful for a certain set of problems.

Matlab shouldn’t, in my opinion, be used to construct a GUI, or generally be used for any sort of production code. Perfectly fine as a research tool though.

But I digress, my overall point is a meaningless semantic joke. The only people who will get bent out of shape about splitting hairs between “scripting” and “programming” are all people who belong in this community.

TigerDirect eventually acquired the rights for the Circuit City name, years after the stores closed. They were great for awhile, it was just weird that they tried to revive the brand.

I bought my first PC parts at CompUSA, which… I don’t think I’ve seen for a very long time lol. Definitely used TigerDirect when I was in college though.

Oh it shouldn’t, seeing as how it’s a scripting language and not actually for programming lol

Unregulated capitalism destroys everything it touches, including itself.

Oh that was wild too, those color changing DVDs.

TigerDirect

Not to downplay your point at all, but didn’t John Edwards do exactly that with a staffer when his wife was dying?

Zwave. Keep your control local. There’s some decent smart locks out there with zwave.

We’ve got a melange of ducks, khaki Campbell, blue runner, swedish blue, Cayuga, and Ancona. My favorite might be the Anconas. Although, our khakis used to be very skittish, our drake just lets me pick him up now though lol

We actually got our first egg this morning!

I’ve heard muscovies are great producers, great foragers, and great reproducers. Has that been your experience?

We put in a bunch of trees and bushes this spring on our new property, so we had zero expectation of actually harvesting anything at all this year.

One of our raspberries has surprised by cranking out a couple of canes this fall. I’m grabbing a handful every other day or so, just collecting them in the freezer until I have enough to do something interesting.

I’ve missed eating things I grew. Our ducks should start producing eggs soon, I’m very excited about that also.

Just pull the trigger, we both know how this ends.

Ooh! Ooh! Who are the three most communist friendly Lemmy instances and do they want to be friends?

Well shit.
