On October 18th, you could always just drive up to Canada while you're waiting for this to happen, which could be a while.

For everybody's benefit: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arabic_numerals and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eastern_Arabic_numerals The second of which are in many middle-eastern (and probably other) countries. I saw them in Egypt when I visited for instance.

Somewhat similar to how many horrifically oppressive dictatorships are on the UN Human Rights Commission. Both are like "WTF???"

This was worth the read IMO: The Bullshit Web Basically about how the hell do we have 6x (or better) speeds these days, and it still takes 30s to load major websites? His answer is all the advertising and "not the content we want" on the pages bogging everything down. Not a perfect article...

That is NOT a happy kitty. Could be worse, but definitely "I'm pissed off about this" face.

If you need a static IP address, and assuming this is to a windows computer, why not just forward the ports for Remote Desktop Connection? Why do you need a 3rd-party provider?

See I'd find that interesting because that would be a precedent for Atheism to be treated like a religion. Which in some places means NO usage of public facilities for religious purposes. So that may backfire spectacularly.

Or it was just straight-out more profitable. "We're selling 3x the number we were selling at twice the price! Let's keep that up!" It'd be stupid NOT to. **Glares at Nintendo Pricing** On that note actually, I'll bet I would have picked up a few of their games, probably exceeding the...

I wouldn't be surprised if it's as simple as "is either machine on a domain? Commercial use!" That's going to be greater than 99% correct for that at least one of the machines is business-owned.

The brofist is for the cat.

I wouldn't be surprised if this is actually a way to just "subtlety" force you out. Or are they just too incompetent for that sort of thing?

For the record, you rolled nuts man. Awesome nuts, but nuts.

Not familiar with The Big O. Googling (safe search on, otherwise probably NSFW) revealed it to be an anime series, which the wiki page says is about memory loss in a city. The right one? If so, I can see why it's applicable.

Being a fan of the movie Dark City, the question there is "Are we more than the sum of our memories?" Rich Burlew obviously says "No" to that question. My opinion (and that movie... maybe) differs. (enough posts down to not spoiler anymore)

I think this entire strip may be applicable, in various ways:

Remind me to get a beer with you if I end up in Phoenix visiting our clients. Our primary client is there, so it's possible I'll be flown out at some point (likely even). And based upon your post, I hope it's in January!

Point of order, today is the 3rd launch of block 5: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Falcon_9_Full_Thrust#Block_5 And from Wired: Above I also quoted the part about 7 flights necessary for human flight.

Umm, in many places, that's illegal. In Canada at least, you can take your car to anywhere, and it's still fine for warranty. It's on the dealer to PROVE that a repair shop fucked something up, rather than saying "it was TOUCHED somewhere else, we're free!" They certainly cultivate the...

Interesting retort to the EU's $5 fine of Google: Google reportedly offered Android changes to EU in 2017 May be hot air, but interesting nonetheless.
