Iron Lynx

I know that Mylar, Inconel and Velcro are real, so it’s a toss-up between Dacron and Clyno.

After consulting an online source, I vote that Clyno is the imposter.

The meowing is just modem sounds, softened to be produceable by and understandable to humans. Or at least to transfemme humans

As a .world user, if you read this, it’s back up ^^

I never saw if the next year they celebrated a 2¹st birthday.

Related: I once got onto my feed a post of a tale of someone who had a child on his 19th birthday, so for his 20th birthday, and the child’s 1st, they had two balloons celebrating their 2⁰th birthdays.

Longer explanation:

Because most computers use two’s complement to make negative numbers. To produce -x, you take x, flip all the bits, and then add 1. Conveniently, this process works both ways, so if you have an int with a positive MSB, i.e. 1*******, that’s a negative number, and if you invert and add 1, you get the positive number.

So if you take 11111111, and apply this process, you get 00000001, which equals 1. Thus, 11111111 = -1

Secondly, the gestation period of humans is 9 months, and there are 12 months in a year.

So if you have binary candles and all of them lit, that can suggest, which it does in my previous comment, that you’re celebrating a child’s -1st birthday.

Light all the candles as an announcement that you’re gonna start having kids and hope she’ll get pregnant in exactly three months. Not in 2, not in 4, but in 3 precisely.

I guess some lawyers have that nailed shut. But a guy can dream, right?

I’m currently still locked in due to some magnitude of network effect. Let’s just say that I’m looking forward to more news about this program’s development with great interest.

It’s a honeypot. Any attempt at SQL injection is logged on the Naughty List.

With a pinch of PFAS for good measure?

Basically, Firefox only crushes a handful of elderly cats while everyone else crushes kittens by the shipload.

Getting real SAO Abridged vibes here

Reading that, and you just know there’s a Linux distro that has fucking as an alias for sudo

ASCII was originally a 7-bit standard. If you type in ASCII on an 8-bit system, every leading bit is always 0.

(Edited to specify context)

At least ASCII is forward compatible with UTF-8

He asked for -1 beers. He got interpreted as 2⁶⁴ - 1 beers (assuming 64-bit unsigned integers)

AI will not replace software engineers, exhibit fuck knows how many.

ngl, the “switch to linux” crowd is close to a vibe of complaining that “my car is making some weird sounds” and the response is to “buy a new car!” I mean, it would solve the problem of not having that issue with windows/your car, but it also means you have to intrusively replace your workflow and probably find some entirely new programs to do what you already could, and potentially have many new, less explicable problems, just to not have that one tiny problem that you could live around.
