Haven't used this emojo for a while:

It's a @squirrel eating a hamburger, it's a very good emojo

Me: "I can't figure out why this printer isn't showing up..."

Dave: "Oh yeah, I unplugged it"

Things that confuse me about the US medical system #32147:

Brand names for all medication

Especially when there are multiple brand names

Let's take a simple over the counter medication as an example: Addaprin, Advil, Bufen, Caldolor, Cap-Profen, EmuProfen, Genpril, Haltran, I-Prin, Ibuprohm, Ibu-Tab, Midol, Motrin, Nuprin, Proprinal, and Q-Profen

IT'S JUST IBUPROFEN DAMNIT, YOU DON'T NEED THAT MANY NAMES FOR IT

Every 5 years or so they start teasing these fabrics made with shape memory alloys

Do these miraculous clothes ever make it to market? Like fuck do they

(just did the ironing, I hate ironing)

Thanks BBC, but I'm not sure "Putin wins Russian election" is breaking news

It's a bit like putting out push notifications that the sun rose in the sky this morning

octopuses are 🅱️oneless vertebrates

Fun fact: Octopuses are classed, under EU law, as honourary vertebrates with all the protections and responsibilities that entails

(there aren't actually any responsibilities, we just muck about all day)

I should get one of those openPGP cards

I've got a yubikey but the full size cards feel so much more cybre

me: I can't remember regex, it's far too complicated

also me: here's a vim command that looks like my cat wandered over the keyboard, that should do what you're looking for
