Don't understand Southwest's value proposition anymore. For routes I often fly, Southwest could be ≥$200 cheaper than Delta. Even like several months to a year ago before the strait closure.

Now? Like $50 less to equal price. And no saving on checked bags nor seat options. Bc SW charges for those, too, now.

Every market and route is diff so YMMV. But I bet it's not that different.

He may make my life harder at work...But man, fuck Microsoft. With a rusty 10ft wide pole.

Indy 500 and F1 Montreal Grand Prix at the same time 🏎️🏁

Was hoping the 500 would finish first, but so many yellows.

I got to learn about the Ubuntu recovery mode today and even use it!

Only because I bricked a production server and accidentally completely disallowed ANY logins to it.

Tbf...I was told to run a bunch of commands that would "secure the server."

For the last several days, the server was SO secure, that no one could sign-in!

This reminds me of something we used to build. Sometimes still do, but rarely.

What are they called again? It's on the tip of my tongue...

Oh! I remember! TRAINS.

State govt should just do it anyway. Clearly listening to the courts is worthless in a red state. But since this is a blue-ish state, we have to follow the rules. Fucking stupid.

Cloudflare is gonna be the death of me. I think messing with and troubleshooting Cloudflare is actually more frustrating than doing so with Microsoft cloud stuff.

And the weirdness continues.

Though I have no one to blame except myself for playing these games.

Also, Japan.

@petes_bread_eqn_xls@mastodo.neoliber.al A friend sent me one of Oliver's segments and it was weird because while he was showing clips of Rogan or like b-roll from some TV station interview, some audience members were laughing. Hard. But like nothing funny had been shown yet. Is Rogan being shown on his podcast inherently funny? Were they just primed to laugh? Probably because like you said, he just keeps saying weird absurd stuff. And it comes off like "HAHA IT"S FUNNY INIT HAHA LAUGH!!"

I'm not a fan of John Oliver. Which is weird, because I did like Jon Stewart and Steven Colbert back in the day.

But there's something about how John Oliver presents things....it's turns me off.

It's only like 11:30a on Sunday, yet I'm already plotting taking a sick day tomorrow.

I have to start going back into the office daily. And I'm just not ready 😭

While the dialog in "The Hundred Line - Last Defense Academy" is better than what's in "Danganronpa V3," it's only marginally less wild. Wtf is this line...

Replying to @LithiumRyanBattery@mastodo.neoliber.al

@LithiumRyanBattery@mastodo.neoliber.al if this happened under a Dem president, Republicans would be screaming this from on high to any passersby, while furiously masturbating themselves and each other into an orgasmic high never before seen. And the media would happily amplify this orgy directly into the brains of the median voter. Instead, I think I saw one article on this today.

Congressional GOP capitulated. Voice vote to fund DHS based on the Senate bill from like a month ago, without additional monies for immigration enforcement.

Should go to the White House for a signature!

Though the immigration money is still likely to come through, but through a separate reconciliation bill. If the GOP can agree amongst themselves.

@AwoogaGeneral@mastodo.neoliber.al you're missing the most oppressed: AI in games. Bots. People are always screaming for them to be banned. So sad

@hackaday@hackaday.social Then after that, I think I'd get the "You've got mail!" clip. Or I'd be like "Mooooom, I'm trying to get onliiiiiine. can you get off the phone please??"
