Furries:
- understand that it can be challenging to recall names/faces.
- often get custom badges made with their name and cute art, to facilitate recognition.
- will sometimes wear those badges to things like large house parties.

More people should be like furries.

Arabic is one of the globe's most gorgeous languages. Its speakers wrote some of the finest prose. Yet it is also precise enough to be used by scientists and mathematicians. It is decorative enough to be bas relief in the world's most incredible buildings. Spoken, it is poetic, yet capable of an easy wit. As calligraphy, it's art. 1/3 of the stars in the sky have Arabic names.

But some clod can just breeze into CNN and call it ugly and not be challenged, and even invited back to do it again.

Casual racism against Arabs 

Some Israeli defender was on the news and dropped in that Arabic is a hateful sounding language and Jake Tapper was just like (nodding with interest)

We do this with China all the time too. Be as racist as you want to official enemies

I totally expect a Windows toy I haven't turned on in a year take four hours to install the complete suite of updates released in the interim.

I should know better by now, but I still never expect a Windows toy I haven't turned on in a year take four hours to install a single update. Not the suite. Just one.

Inspired by recent posts by @cstross I'm sure someone has made a corporate looking logo for the Torment Nexus before me but I couldn't find it, so here's my take.

Obviously there's inspiration from Weyland-Yutani with some tech company blue and friendly rounded corners.

The motto is widely attributed to Nicola Tesla. It's probably apocryphal but I think that's even more appropriate.

The progress bar GUI widget was created so that a program could show its progress to users in a nice, linear, and moderately predictable way.

But now the progress bar is used primarily to show a complete lack of progress, moving back and forth in the progress tray like the light on a Cylon's face, as reassurance to the user that, no, the program hasn't frozen, only that the company behind it couldn't care less about its users.
