Oh, the procedure was fine. 40 minutes after I was called out of the waiting room I walked out and had zero issues. And also zero swimmers since. All good there.

But when I had the first appointment, he asked me if I was really sure and if my wife knew and was also fine with it. But I know that it depends on the doctor.

To be fair, men also get asked if they’re really sure by some doctors when going in for a vasectomy. Even when closing in on 50 and with three kids at home. But as long as they perform the procedure I don’t care.

She is 43? The hell. I had no idea she was about my age.

Yeah, there are only stealing assholes involved here.

What? If you replace Windows with free alternatives, it’s still Windows? You still owe Microsoft money?

What the Jesus Fucking Christ

The best Hello World I saw used a random library. Because there’s no true random without hardware, the author figured out the correct seed to write Hello World with “random” characters. I’ve used that to show junior devs that random in programming doesn’t mean truly random.

I think you might be onto something there.

Farming is god-awful if your livelihood depends on it. I’d rather be a carpenter or a metalworker once I’m fed up with that computer stuff.

I don’t think that holds true in all scenarios. You need to use a key that has some guarantees. In many systems you will use data you don’t control, like email addresses, IBANs, ISBNs, passport IDs and many more. You have zero control over those keys, but because each comes with certain guarantees, they might be suitable as a foreign key in your context.

There’s a .ooo domain? Wow.

How I miss bash.org

I just started DA:I again and am indeed collecting shards in the Hinterlands. But it feels OK, so far. I have so many memories of that game, with the first playthrough clocking in at about 100 hours. I like being able to run around and discover stuff and with the influence score it feels like progress. But I’ll still give Veilguard a chance.

Matthew 25:14-30

Are you seriously taking something that is called a “parable” literally? Do you need help in understanding what a parable is? The whole thing is not even about money, but about god (the master) and his stewards who shall work on spreading the gospel while Jesus is gone. Those who spread the word of god shall be rewarded and those who are resentful of god will be punished. It has nothing to do with that capitalist shit people like you interpret into it.

Yeah, but these aren’t the artists, just the big music publishers who are just as predatory as Spotify.

I tried a few alternatives, but the Goodreads import wasn’t working well for any of them and I miss the two people who have very similar taste to my own. Sadly I don’t know them, we just connected over Reddit at some point and it feels weird asking them to migrate.

Oh, I missed the point where religions where headed by sane, competent men of sound mind and body.

I doubt that. Phones hide even more of the internal infrastructure than PCs do.

Steam doesn’t even give me the option to install DA:O because it’s only available for Windows.
