I do want to talk about the implications of this unit for a moment, specifically "Dry Bones" and "Dry Bowser", whose naming conventions confuse and frighten me. When I die, will I become Dry Brian? Is a living Bowser Wet Bowser? Why do Piranha Plant have bone in it?

@ceruleanspark You are a Wrian now, and a Drian when you are dead.
Do not overthink it. -
@ceruleanspark Well, it was never proven that piranha plants are actually plants, and not plant-resembling animals. There's a marked lack of academic institutions in the mushroom kingdom.

Watching classic Futurama, this quote has aged well: "Listen here, missy. Computers may be twice as fast as they were in 1973, but your average voter is as drunk and stupid as ever. The only thing that's different is me: I've become bitter, and, let's face it, crazy over the years. And once I'm swept into office, I'll sell our children's organs to zoos for meat, and I'll go into people's houses at night and wreck up the place. Muahahaha!"

the Goats have a new album coming out in April and honestly the most surprising thing to me about it being based on Dungeons & Dragons is that they didn't do it sooner https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=987MTbOl0mc

@tiff I dunno, I think the pro-wrestling album represented a bigger part of his childhood
-
@ceruleanspark going from wrestling to goth culture to D&D is an incredibly relatable trajectory of childhood interests
-
-
thinking about that time @ceruleanspark recommended me the Mountain Goats' The Sunset Tree on a whim and it turned out to be the exact album I needed to get me through my troubled youth. I love music

@nerthos There are AI enemies, just no NPC humans. It's kind of a man vs. nature sort of thing in that every AI that you DO encounter is usually a wild animal (or a busted robot). There's the usual stuff, there are feral ghouls, super mutants, robots, deathclaws, mole rats, etc. etc., but then there's also some new ones. Scorched are ghouls that are in between feralism and still having some semblance of brain activity, so they don't communicate verbally but they can use guns. Mole Miners hang out in the coal mines and I THINK they're people that have gone mad? I'm not sure, the game's really ambiguous about what they actually are, and you can't see what's underneath their masks. Scorched Beasts are, uh, really buff dragons. The closest thing I've seen to an actual NPC is a supercomputer who reads poetry to you, and I want to put her AI into a synth body and marry her.

After years of running this place, I thought I’d seen every way a Linux machine could collapse, but once again, my work has shown me another level of “how did this even happen”. I have a machine at work which is suddenly incapable of any function involving cryptography, including but not limited to: allowing SSH access and serving pages over HTTPS
Thursday, 15-Nov-18 23:35:44 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark Is it maybe a hardware failure, like the specific dedicated core burned out on the machine?

@scribus Yes you have stores like that. When it comes to big furniture (couches) you'll have to wait for that because it has to be manufactured on demand. That can take from 6 to 12 weeks.

@adiwan Germany has no existing stock of couches? They've all gotta be made to order?
-
@ceruleanspark It depends on the store. Some have a little bit of stock (or the stuff on the show floor). But mostly it is made on demand.

@ceruleanspark I do believe TBS is or once was a channel....
-
@ceruleanspark TBS is indeed the network it was on. It was supposed to be part of an original animated block with a Louis C.K. show and J.G. Quintel’s new show. Louis C.K.’s show was cancelled for obvious reasons, Quintel’s is the Half-Life 3 of animated television and no news on it has been released in a while, so Final Space just ended up being part of their usual lineup with the other remaining animated show on the block.

For the people who care about federation (Probably just @nerthos and @awl) I have no idea why it isn’t working. This is actually a new server, at a new hosting provider and a functionally fresh install of RDN’s version of statusnet. So unless DigitalOcean, Cloudflare, or the other instances themselves are blocking us (or them), there’s no particular reason why it *shouldn’t* work.

@scribus They’re the end result of a 40 year campaign by what is essentially state run media (or to be more accurate, a media run state) to overturn the previous referendum we had on joining the EU in the first place. Turns out it’s really easy to gaslight a populace when you spend decades ensuring they’ll never have the tools required to verify your claims.

@ceruleanspark it’s like the independentists took a page from the Bolsheviks who started that campaign in the ruins of the Russian empire
