Tubular Bells, also known as the Theme from The Exorcist.

How to keep house while drowning by KC Davis: how it's not morally wrong to have a messy living space, and how to keep it livable even when you feel like you're overwhelmed.

I have ADHD and depression, this book was pivotal in helping me get out of the stereotypical "depression apartment" situation.

As a (legal) immigrant with a vanity plate... lmao.

I was going to suggest The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, after all, they will already have a towel.

Them: Can you perform under pressure?

Me: Mmm num ba de
Dum bum ba be
Doo buh dum ba beh beh

How are you hanging your antenna? Dipoles for 20m and lower are typically set up in an Inverted V configuration, which should work fine with the 10m mast you already have.

As someone who used to troubleshoot an extremely complex system for my day job, I can say I've worked my way across the entire bell curve.

The things is, if you try to parse html with a regex, you will always be able to construct valid html that will break it, no matter how complex your regex becomes.

We met on OkCupid. We were on opposite sides of the Atlantic, but she had a friend on this side, and they were comparing the "weird" profiles they were each finding. OkCupid has a "if you liked this person, you might like these more" section, and I appeared in there. She wasn't really looking to date anyone, but she clicked, messaged me, and we clicked. I moved to the US to be with her after a two-year long distance relationship, and we'll be celebrating our ten year wedding anniversary next year.

United. Twice. They damaged my luggage both times.

I've only flown Delta and American since then.

That's not a hitch, it's a lashing, if I understand you correctly.

Python or Perl. IIRC, I've seen systems with a Perl install by default, but not Python.

On the internet, no one can tell you're a duck.

It's definitely great in theory until you inherit a codebase with no tests, poor documentation, and numerous reported bugs already live in production. Even better if it was written by people hired because they could do other things better than they could code - which looking at some of the unlabeled wiring messes we were left, isn't saying a lot.

I tried uploading a banner for a community I mod and was met by a JSON parser error message, so that's not happening there until there have been a few more updates.

Did you know that XLR is also something of a standard for interchangeable sex machine attachments?

I'm a big fan of amateur radio, specifically portable operation, and Parks on the Air.

I'll take my radio out to a remote location, throw an antenna up into some trees, and talk to people all over the US.

Currently I need mains power, but I'm looking to buy a battery soon, and I already have some solar panels gifted from a club member.

I live in Michigan, and last time I was out, my most distant contacts were in Dallas, Texas, around 1100 miles away, while I was sitting at a picnic table at my local state park campground.

It reduces the turbulence at the trailing edge, reducing noise. Bernouli's principle dictates that part of the force on the blade is due to the airflow on each side moving at different speeds, if the crashed into each other all at once, you'd get a lot of turbulence, and hence noise. The serrations ensure that the two flows meet over a longer distance, reducing said turbulence.
