Proposal for a new Linux special file:
/dev/scream
It's like /dev/zero, but it's endless stream of the letter 'a', with an occasional capital 'A' at a random frequency.
printf is actually short for printfox, referring to the tiny fox

oh wow. Just learned that Ms. Pac-Man uses the same random number generation routine as Pac-Man, but it generates different numbers.
The reason? it uses the first 2kb of its own ROM as the entropy for the randomness, and the two games have slightly different code in the first 2kb, thus different random numbers
Wondering how Ms. Pac-Man's randomness is different than the original Pac-Man's? It's all explained right here.LINKSSupport the channel on Patreon: https://w...YouTube
didn't everyone just used to read bits of ROM for RNG back in the 8-bit days?
Nobody would notice in your daft Vic 20 game that the RNG was skewed towards 6502 opcodes so it was perfectly good enough!
This happens every day.
Both my cat and I both prefer the big comfy office chair. If my cat gets to it first, I end up sitting on a tiny stool because I'm unwilling to disturb my cat.
However, my cat prefers my lap over the chair, so he inevitably jumps onto my lap.
Now, I can't stand and neither of us get the comfy chair, even though I would prefer it for comfort, and my cat would prefer to be in a higher spot on my lap.
In game theory, this is known as a Nash equilibrium, where no player benefits from changing things, resulting in everyone locked in place (even if there's a better overall strategy that benefits everyone).

Phone is like:
"Hey! We notice you're not backing your stuff (photos and documents and stuff) up to Google Drive / Google Photos...."
And I'm like:
"Correct."
What?? It's the dragon's birthday?? 
Yeah.. I've finally got a 2 on the front. (I'm 20 now.)
Companies contract out small parts manufacturing, then big parts, then engineering and design, and only retain a "people and culture" organization that sits far from any factory, and before you know it you have two astronauts stranded in space and windows blowing our of planes because no one feels responsible for your overall product anymore.
IN-SOURCE YOUR ENGINEERING AND MANUFACTURING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Also, in-source your janitorial staff, in-source the people making food at the canteen, in-source your receptionist, in-source your IT support.
Every person working for a company should be working for that company.
You will have mid-term gains with outsourcing some functions, but in the long term, you will pay.
Stop listening to McKinsey telling you to outsource all that stuff. Their very business model relies on you outsourcing your brains. Ignore them.

Introduction post 
I'm Yeen Queen, a leftist, genderfluid, finsexual, furry and music enjoyer among other things.
I'd love to make friends here, I welcome anyone stopping by to say hi, despite being of the bone crushing hyena family I won't crush yours. Maybe.
Music I like is usually different types of rock, I love the punk rock aesthetics a lot.
This is the second instance I try and while I liked the other one I feel like a furry focused one would make it easier for me to meet people :)
When I got home today, after a couple of days at the old house, I parked the bike on the driveway and a couple of small fluffy persons came to say hello. Or, more precisely, one of them came to say hello, while the other one nearly did but then hid under a bush for ages, coming out only very briefly to tell the other one off and then go and hide again. I do like how they don't care that I'm in a full set of leathers, gloves, boots, with a blank black visor and no face, they just care if they get pettings. I do hope someday someone happens to walk past while this is happening and gets a surreptitious photo of a scary biker being affectionate to cats.
Also, I was busy yesterday and made four whole loaves of bread. Then I eated some.
Selomon found a tiny friend.
To the mouse, the skunk wasn't just a friend but a whole theme park of joy! Selomonβs fluffy tail becomes a liana, perfect for swinging.

2 real world somewhat similar examples
1
iirc, the TV in Las Vegas owned by billionaire Howard Hughes would play the movies that Howard Hughes wanted played
2
someone like Jimmy Breslin remarks how they were on vacation in the Caribbean and on the phone complained to William F Buckley that the TV movies were no good and Buckley says, i own the TV what do you want to watch ?
which is why fascist Buckley got such good press from NYC intellectuals
