Man... The Chinese language is supposed to encompass phrases within single characters, but this sentence is obviously longer in Chinese than it is in English.

Are you trying to trick us?

Asian asian food is saltier than I expected, but I try to watch my health. Honestly it's probably just restaurants that do it, like everywhere in North America and Europe is trying to kill me with butter.

As opposed to the Europeans who think that wine is a dietary group? Or Asians who think that salt is a vitamin?

What the fuck are you talking about, Jesse?

I replaced my entire diet with applesauce and I think I might be shitting myself to death.

Do you really need an investigation of endeavour #21?

Absolutely.

Bro, does it still work? I can't imagine it will but if so, give the magnet link.

Can we still play it? I'll 1v1 you later today if we can.

With that weird kick on the jump animation and the totally stupid crouch animation.

Multiplayer gaming peaked at GameSpy.

And that's why Gabe has a new yacht with a fuckin' submarine.

Goddamn money printer he's got there. No hate, I just can't believe the platform that we had to install to play Counter Strike (1.6?) has become the juggernaut it has.

That's complete bullshit. Building one floor on cheap land is way, way cheaper than building high on expensive land.

source: Wyoming.

and of course, building one floor of data center is exponentially cheaper than building two floors.

Bone stuff, why are you asking so many questions?

No, like put him on an ice floe in the Arctic

 

But I had a little panic when it was Billy Joel for the first 15 seconds.

 

Chop Chop, mememonkeys!

 

He's adequately square, but the dumbass that set him didn't quite push him flush. Most hotel showers have this problem. Sorry not sorry you will see this in every hotel room ever now.

 

They got big this week, even with the freeze in Denver. Every chicken thrived, I wrapped the little chicken hut in a moving blanket, wrapped again with a tarp, and put a little lean-to of a tarp over the food and water for the two day storm.

They are getting too big for the medium pet carrier, in about a week I will have to put them in the regular coop.

The weather in Denver is so nice and they seemed like they were so bored in the garage that I put them out earlier than I planned. I can always put them in the garage if we get a freeze. They are fully feathered so even freezing temps shouldn't harm them now. I'm out here at dusk because they don't know to go in their kennel at night and I'll have to pick them up and put them in, like I did last night.

The little garden fencing is to keep them separate from the 3 year old hens I already have, if you keep the different flocks apart so they can see each other everything is better when you want to bring them all together. The old hens were big mad when I brought the new pullets outside yesterday, making all kinds of noise and puffing up near the fence to show dominance. They will get along eventually and I'll keep the pullets segregated until they get closer to the same size. The garden fence is going to go around our raised beds this year because we have a lot of rabbits now, Mr Fox seems to have moved out of the neighborhood or died.

If anyone wants to be more self sufficient I highly recommend raising hens (fuck roosters). Each hen will lay about 250 eggs a year for four years, then they fall off on production. Just keep them well fed and they keep producing.

The eggs sit on the counter in our temperate house and they will last for a couple months like that. I preserve eggs for the winter by taking butt-fresh eggs and "water glassing" them. Plenty of info on the web about water glassing but you basically just make an oversaturated solution of food-grade lime and water (oversaturated means there's more lime in the water than it can hold, so it precipitates out as solid) and keep the eggs in that solution. A half gallon mason jar, 1/4 cup lime and about a quart of water will preserve 13 eggs. The preserved eggs are just fine 4 months later, 8 months later and they are only good for baking. "For science!" I ate three eggs sunny side up that had been preserved for over a year and although they were a little unappealing they were fine to eat.

They had the right idea when I went inside to get a broom (chicken wrangler) but once they saw me they just came back out and made the "MAMA!" cry so I had to pick them up.

Basically title. I want to control a bare metal debian machine on a separate monitor (that always has this debian machine) from my windows gaming machine.

Edit: it's called Synergy and the apt package is called deskflow. I'll try it later and see if I can make it work.

Six new chicks for our backyard flock. These are three weeks old, today is the day I introduce the roost area which is a medium pet kennel. They will stay here until about mother's day because that's our typical last frost in Denver. The only other addition now will be netting on the top of the whole enclosure so I don't have to chase an escapee around my garage

edit: It's a baby pool that hasn't held water in at least 8 years, I keep it stashed behind the regular chicken coop. The cardboard is called "ram board" and used to protect floors on construction sites, I just take some scrap. The kennel is on the right, it's sitting on a milk crate so it's the same height as the lip of the pool. Ramp is just a piece of wood with a scrap of carpet stapled to it. Ramp is held in place with a spare allen wrench dropped through a hole in the ramp into the hole that latches the crate. Feeder is screwed to that 2x4 otherwise they knock it over. Waterer is filled with "chick boost", that shit is definitely worth it.

Photo is edited with "auto color", the light is a red one. Definitely use the red lights, the chicks will fucking murder a littermate if they see blood and the red light helps prevent that.

 

Standard apt-get update and apt-get upgrade broke just now and it was typically easy to fix. dhclient didn't bring up my wifi card so I plugged it in to bring up the network card, quick dpkg --configure -a didn't return anything so I just did apt full-upgrade at the recovery console and that fixed it.

I love Debian (and linux)

I've used a towel style bath mat for decades, I think it's the most hygenic. It goes on the floor to shower, then gets hung to dry between showers.

I lay floors and hadn't seen a "permanent" bath mat in years but ran into one today. It was that typical shag rug style, bright pink. This was a clean house but it was strange to me, I didn't think anyone used those anymore.

 

Ho. ly. shit.

I guess, whatever? Let's fucking do this.
