Oil/siliconed various gears and moving parts. Bike feels brand new.

Took less than 5 minutes. I really should do that more often.

Right. Yeah I didn't engage my brain on the & initially as i thought it was just a typo. But that should work, seems others on the internet think the same.

I like 'exec startx', but really if someone has physical access, unless you are doing a lot of other security, you can't be safe.

If you switch to the VT with Ctrl-Alt-F1, and hit ctrl-z the process is suspended, but does not complete so it never gets to the exit.

At least that is my suspicion. I'm going to try it when I'm in front of a machine.

Joke's on you. Ctrl-Alt-F1 Ctrl-z.

Sorry my pronunciation guide was unclear, she pronounced it "correctly" my "doh" being in the classical homer-simpson sound. Not much difference in god-oh vs. ga-doh, just slight emphasis shift. Good video, however, thanks.

I just about made my wife pee laughing at me.

Me, reads post, feeling it speaking directly to me, but never having put absurdism direclty in front of me, despite my absolute die-hard adherence to it. "Waiting for Godot", huh wonder of the "Godot "(in my head pronounced go-dot) game engine.

Ask wife, Have you ever read "Waiting for go-dot"...

"You mean, waiting for gah-doh"

"Oh-shit.."

I'd heard of the play, with the correct pronunciation, but never put it together in my head.

Anyway, I'm off to find more defined absurdism. Thanks for this so that I could get it out of the way with my wife and not in front of regular humans.

I assume they all share the same Tandy 1000 to IRC with hot-singles in their area.

Grizzled police-chief: get me those IP addresses

Nerd: setting up the back-trace now, wait, the ip is 127.0.0.1

Grizzled police-chief: don't give me that geek-talk poindexter, speak english

[Zoom in]

Nerd: the post was coming from inside the station.

[No one is shocked]

To be clear, my view is that "stop and frisk" is a license that a racist system sought to legitimize their racist actions.

I guess my sarcasm didnt come through in my post, but does anyone really think that "random" stop and frisk would have stopped this attack?

I thought the driver was in a decent place, is that not true? Where is the best place to read about the situation.
