Wrong Strait Homie

Unless it has a lining, you should be able to determine whether the pockets are real or fake by checking the inner side.

Alien kind.

From skimming search results, this seems to be an equivalent of infographs in mook format. So this is not a parody.

I have an environment friendly alternative to this method. It involves tea leaves…

It’s reserved for really close friends (sometimes also relatives). The problem is not the extent of politeness per se, but one that exceeds the “expected” politeness. If you’re politer than you’re supposed to be, you are being too 客气 (“acting like a guest”) or 见外 (“looking like a stranger”).

Although, the expected politeness is sometimes tricky to know as it depends on each part’s perception of the relation. On top of that, there’s also the supposed “acting” of politeness, like fighting to pay restaurant bills.

This is actually not that hard to understand. Note that across cultures, close friends can insult each other as jokes. So showing less politeness is like an insult, but with the understanding of the participants, it becomes a show of closeness.

The next phase of data center evolution had missile defence systems built in. ——Skynet origin story, probably.

Granted, I really had to look for that meaning.

I just realized this wasn’t an evil name across cultures as I have always thought.

Its Chinese translation 天网 (literally sky + net) is a word used for at least for 2,000 years and is still very actively used among the daily vocabulary. It’s a metaphor for law enforcement (especially the destined punishment for going against the “good natural order” i.e. the sky).

Traditionally, it’s neutral or commendatory, but nowadays due to the association with surveillance networks (both metaphorically and literally), it’s more derogatory.

Classic RPG story telling.

Rewrote in Rust

FWIW, since Patch 1.5 from 4 years ago, you can skip the braindance tutorial.

However, the “His own choomba shot him” line has already been burned into my brain before the patch.

Not sure about this one, but I know quant traders sometimes like many screens with many dashboards for realtime trading.

And open firmware, especially for routers.

So consumer grade routers are a security risk, but not ISP switches or server routers? That’s the opposite of what a state level actor would look for.

You absolutely cannot separate the art from the artist.

You can…by pirating everything Harry Potter.

Came here to make this comment. So by the same logic, DNS or Domain Name System should have been abbreviated to DoNaS and pronounced dou-NAS.

Hmmmm, if more and more countries are allowed to pass, wouldn’t this mean Iran can’t use sea mines?
