Rarely, TBH. Unless you're OK with being an absolute ass in some form or another.

Breath on your fingers like you're trying to fog up glass. Immediately open by running your fingers in opposite directions along the edge, using the additional friction you created.

Zone of the Enders had a touching anime series about a widowed space truck driver whom stumbles upon a sentient orbital frame which he considers his surrogate daughter as he attempts to become a better father and reconnect with his grown kids, amidst an inter-system civil war.

And I'm kinda sure it's cannon.

No, I am not making this up.

Damn...what is this, r/seattle?

Don't forget the fact that despite it's just a cheeseburger, it's named "The Vonderbilt Wonder", "Halfsie Pattsies", or "Edmonton the Second". Ideally on a menu so scant on details it's hard to tell the french fries from the extra avocado.

Ever tried to read something in your dreams? Coding is basically 90% reading and 10% writing. Then you have to insure that shit compiles and runs.

I can't speak for you, but I don't think my brain has a valid edition of the Java Development Kit.

Just think: People having to get help because the job they quit three years ago keeps showing up in their dreams. What's worse is that they keep doing it, in control but unaware of the fact that they aren't getting paid, threatened by their in-dream former boss with being fired if the quota wasn't met.

Staying awake yet unemployed becomes one of their only escapes. They turn to stimulants to stay away from 'work' just a bit longer, just a little more peace.

But they then 'crash', falling asleep for almost a day, and starting a shift that feels like an eternity, Inception style.

Can confirm. Had an oven that could 'do' convection. Didn't seem to make a difference.

Then I got an actual air fryer. Made a massive difference.

Bombay is best bai.

Which is particularly ironic as the breed is known for its silky black coat, and bai can also mean "yellow mist".

How broken are we talking here? Like, installation is kinda borked but technically works broken, or purge it with fire and salt the storage medium broken?

I have often busted my machine learning rig as it runs an ancient (but spacious VRAM) GPU. If I upgrade the drivers by accident, it takes an average of 1-2 days to make everything happy again.

I used to be more cavalier with my boot partitions; I am no stranger to a busy box for repairs. Best moments are when I used to try and adjust a live partition to make more room for the swap partition (or vice versa).

I have screwed up more Raspberry PI installations than I care to count. Usually by my own hand.

I have completely broken Xwindows multiple times due to drivers, trying to go between desktop environments, and most frequently trying to get video cards to work that aren't natively supported.

Want that cool image as a background? Whoops.

Want to use that image with that nifty ML tool you downloaded? Uh oh.

That random web service at least five years old with an upload field for an image? Roll the dice; win on snake eyes.

Want to use that picture as an avatar in a forum that isn't that popular? Hmmm.

How about that WordPress blog of yours? Hopefully on 5.8 or better; otherwise unsupported natively.

Would you like thumbnails on these downloads in your favorite Linix distro? Uh, maybe; Ubuntu didn't get it until 22.10.

How about Windows? Well, 11 is fine, but 10 needs an extension.

None of this can't be overcome with some effort, but it's kind of painful right now.

I'd rather see the savings in the army of Javascript I apparently need today for the 'modern' web experience. Image files have gotten lots of love, but hey, here's a shitty 27 year old language designed for validating form input!

Sure, and it has nothing to do with the big ass vehicles being churned out due to loopholes in US law.
