Often High Pope Bob Dobberson, at your service.

I'm a "hacker" with years of experience with unix systems, and knowledge of more than a handful of programming languages.

I will learn what you know by asking silly questions.

I do not like all of my friends, and I think it is silly to want that.

I am fallible. You will not like everything I say. Have patience while we learn together; I will endeavor for the same.

No gods, no masters, plenty of irony.

@SpaceLifeForm@infosec.exchange I agree. This makes things non-trivial, but I imagine humans have learned enough about variable g and time and distance that we can maybe approximate my answers. Clearly the black hole engineer that told me all of this has a higher level of understanding, and the college they graduated from might have had much more advanced courses than we know of... But they might have also been simplifying things for my considerably simpler mind.

@SpaceLifeForm@infosec.exchange well, sure, our spines may compress, but... Is the literal definition of length affected by the differing gravity? The change from 1 to 2.4 would barely be noticeable as you climb down the stairwells.

Is length affected by gravity? Would 20 feet at 2.5g be the same as 20 feet at 1g?

I was watching something else, and Adamski came up so I looked 'em up, and found this. Interestingly, this has been sampled in at least one of the songs on my chill playlist... I'll have to make note next time I hear it, or just do some searching...

Oh shit. There's mead, isn't there? He says, being mournful of the end of his two claimed beers.

The gas might be turned off... I might have to deduce and solve problems to get some mead... That's the prize, right? Even though I should be winding down...

Nobody's gonna drive me... I'm not gonna do Uber... Fuck it... sleep in, right?

@gimulnautti a lot of what we are seeing began in the 80s (and probably well before then) with Reagan, Thatcher, and Gorbachev. Putin and Trump are parts of the plan. @zackwhittaker

@malwaretech out of curiosity, wouldn't it have been efficient / effective to craft your prompt using a known and blacklisted vulnerable driver? That seems like that might have saved some tokens.

@mgorny makes me wonder if I should adopt an LTS release to stick with for the next 20 years, since I don't really see that many improvements in Linux these days. Shit worked fine 10 years ago. Why's it gotta keep changing?

@mgorny huh. I thought LTS meant ... long term support ... meant ... current security patches. Maybe they should stop calling them LTS if they're insecure.
