That would be her in a cape and spandex, as the amazing Superuser!

War criminals can be awarded the Nobel peace prize.

e.g. Henry Kissinger.

Officers quizzed Mads about his visit, and his plans, before adopting a personal line of questioning. “They asked direct questions about drug smuggling, terrorist plans and right-wing extremism, completely without reason,” he claimed.

He should have admitted to that last one. They would have let him right in.

Traveled down the road and back again…

I was a penguin. I was waiting in line at the Harold Washington library in Chicago to get an autograph from Neal Stephenson. I had to keep looking over my shoulder, because there were wanted posters up everywhere with my penguin face on them, because I was being hunted for a crime I didn’t commit.

This bad boy can fit so many fuckin drives in it.

Nicole will message you eventually, you can talk to her.

Reject modernity, return to COBOL.

Bullshit.

To illustrate how fucking insane this is:

Measles has a death rate of 1-2 per 1000 cases. With US population at 340,000,000, that means 340,000 - 680,000 dead. And that’s out of the 85 million people hospitalized, which would be a society destroying situation.

Bring a bucket and a mop.

Okay okay, we only needed 10.

Edit: Though Ubuntu falls under Debian, so that’s redundant.

Your math is off. The Moon is about 384,400 KILOmeters from the Earth, not meters. So 116,485 seconds, or a bit over 32 hours.

You son of of bitch. 💪

When I was a kid, maybe 13 years old, I heard about a Halloween costume contest at a natural history museum.

I wanted a costume somehow science related, so I decided to dress as a mosquito (seems weird to me now, but whatever). My mom sewed together a black felty fabric into a proboscis that went out over my head and a sort of cloak down my back with legs coming off it. We cut a Styrofoam ball in half and painted it yellow for the eyes. The wings were a white mesh fabric on a frame of drinking straws that we taped together.

I won the contest for my age bracket, and the prize was some Star Trek: Deep Space 9 refrigerator magnets. I don’t think I have the magnets anymore, but I still have the costume, though it’s falling apart a little.

Okay, I have to go text my mom and tell her she’s awesome.

Man, this one makes me sad. Vicarious nostalgia?

This is a fairly niche answer, but Noah Caldwell-Gervais.

He does very smart critical analysis of video games as a medium, often in multi-hour long retrospectives of entire franchises. They are all split into chapters, so it’s easy to watch in parts. The visuals and editing are not very flashy, pretty much just footage of the game he’s talking about, but they are so well written and thoughtful I find them extremely compelling. There’s also road trip travelogues, but I’m not as into those.
