Please don’t apologize.

History is important for everyone to remember, I agree.

Thank you for explaining.

I’m sorry you had to struggle.

I’m glad that (if I understand correctly and please let me know if I don’t) that you get to be you.

I apologize for my ignorance, but what’s RLE?

Perhaps fittingly, I thought they were clarifying that the population of their area was predominantly cisgendered.

Yeah, or I could put something in the prompt, I’ve considered writing an alias or function so instead of yum or apt I could just run install and let the system run what it must.

It’s not really a big concern, though. I don’t run that many systems and I reimage them with different distros often enough that it hasn’t been worth addressing for me.

Thank you for the suggestion though!

I would use Debian more if I didn’t have to remember whether to use apt or yum every time I ssh’d into a random server on my network.

Around eighteen years ago I linked a Yahoo! question to a then friend of mine. He said “I love Yahoo! Answers, trolls trolling trolls.”

Not sure why this comes to mind at the moment …

My favorite one is one that I can’t find with the few minutes of image searching I’m willing to do on such a topic. It features a presumably post coital image of, IIRC, Princess Peach and a very embarrassed looking Sonic. Her majesty is saying something like “well, one thing is true, Sonic … You are faster than Mario.”

It’s amazing how many mostly unrelated memories were brought back to me just by being vaguely reminded that that exists.

I don’t often literally express my amusement verbally, but this made me do so … After a moment or two of processing it. Thanks for your contribution to my day!

… Fifth.

I recently had a short illness that involved my body thoroughly purging anything I put inside of it without much change to the content. (I’m mostly better now.)

At one point my wife made me a 32oz smoothie in the hopes that it would provide me with some nutrients. It was visually very dark. I consumed and enjoyed it, then fell asleep and forgot about it.

A few hours later, I ran to the bathroom with great urgency and was very alarmed until I remembered the smoothie.

I never asked.

My sister adopted my first offspring. We got lots of “hick” jokes out of that.

Even better, he’s aware of the situation and goes by the nickname “Luke.” I know it’s not accurate to the original quote, but I’ve had lots of good opportunities to say “Luke, I am your father.”

… What about the silhouette?

The quoted block says that the screw format was invented in 1932 while the associated screwdriver was invented in 1933. I’m asking about the intervening period.

I remember when the first few books came out and I read them, I went on the official forum for the series. People were talking about the chemical/ nutrient requirements of morphing. Also, in the first book, the telepathy is mutual and in later books it’s not; at least one person asked about that and the author admitted, in a classy way, that it was a mistake. I certainly didn’t expect the series ending with, among other things, PTSD.

I did also like the author’s other series featuring an alternate dimension in the form of dreams wherein I believe yet another war was happening.

… Someone should check on K.A. Applegate.

How did people tighten or loosen the screw between 1932 and 1933?

This isn’t like your usual posts until the end.

Are you okay?

I have no strong feelings about their use, but “fun” seems like a stretch.

Odd. Neither have I.
