I remember watching Fail Safe by chance and that movie was so fucking tense! Completely carried by the amazing cast. Maybe I should watch it again!
It’s about a cold war situation where iirc the USA bomb a city in Russia by accident and the movie / play is about how the two presidents negotiate to avoid all out nuclear war. Fantastic stuff.

That’s me all day long with Kong, having to ssh on the data planes so I can read the stupid logs and catch errors as they happen because we have a retarded setup… I often have to do it with an audience and I try to make it accessible for them, but I reckon it must remind them of Neo looking at the Matrix, when I’m browsing live logs on the command line.

I’m on a three week break and that’s like normal summer holiday for most of us in France. I’d even say on the small side because we can’t really be away that much from our respective jobs. The main difference is what one can afford to do during those three weeks, for sure, but otherwise we are paid the same.

There is a reason “don’t stick your dick in crazy” is a thing, though.

The issue here is you’d be selling it to morons who, when shit inevitably happens, would sue your pants off. So that means having lawyers that can protect you, probably on staff. Not sure it’s worth it. You’d need to do the maths I guess

Weird take. If you ain’t happy with your SO you try and deal with it or you fuck off. Cheating just makes everything worse.
My colleague cheated on her man and now everything is worse. Whatever situation caused her to do it, now the situation is even harder to resolve. No one is gonna go “yeah okay, I probably deserved that. Let’s move on”, haha!

Sounds like the kind of shit one might say in a place where you need the money to feed that child and jobs are fire-at-will. What a fucking nightmare!

That was my feeling as well, but at least the patootie one is US slang.

Ooh, so apparently these are in Green’s Dictionary of Slang! And although they are mostly British, the dictionary is not limited to UK English. And it’s got quotes! The one for kicky-wicky is Shakespeare, love it!

We moved to the arsehole of France, so my wife just orders a monthly delivery of Chinese products straight from China, these days.

That’s not even considered spicy. That’s just basic flavouring.

Same. Even though it’s generally consider myself a metalhead, I also love some rap, some techno, some classic… I love plenty of music! “Favourite” is an idiotic concept to me. My heart has plenty of room for all my music. Love isn’t a zero-sum game!
- Comment on Anon has standards 4 weeks ago:
I’ve lived with my wife for twelve years and we have two kids and I don’t think she’s ever managed to listen to any of the stuff I really love, because it’s just too heavy for her. And I’m not talking Lorna Shore here, I’m saying she gets all stressed out when she hears any short of bass drop.
I don’t think her brain was ever ready for metal, I’m pretty sure they don’t have anything like it in China.Anyway, my point is, it still works because she doesn’t see music as a defining thing for herself, nor do I think of myself exclusively as a metalhead. She doesn’t hate me listening to metal, nor do I hate her listening to cheesy Taiwanese crooners from the eighties. She doesn’t try to change my tastes, nor impose hers.
I think that’s more important, actually. Not hating what the other person brings to the table. Sure it’s sad not to share a passion with the person you love, but it’s better than them trying to change you, or dismissing or denigrating what you love! Now that would be a deal breaker.

I 100% believe this generation might teabag their victims. At least until thé horrors of war and PTSD set in. And even then, they might still do it as gallows humor, no doubt. - Comment on Melon-chicken-Aspic 1 month ago:

For real. If those idiot neighbours would stop fucking around, we get trains from Wuhan to Bordeaux in about a week. It’s a real game changer.
- Comment on Anon likes trains 1 month ago:
China is disagreeing, right now. Not disagreeing with your arguments, but they are definitely pushing a lot more than us because the amount of people you can move is ridonkulous compared to planes and cars, their geography seems to be helping and the technology is getting ridiculous (450kph trains, right now).

- Comment on Anon likes trains 1 month ago:
We do. Not as much as we used to because privatisation is a plague upon mankind, also we have very diverse geography which makes developing new lines prohibitively expensive, even more so when you’re a private company. Add to that a lack of political backing and yeah, it’s all rather turgid, even if there are some extremely recent talks concerning transeuropean night trains and such.
Those are going to be for our nice flat and speedy routes no doubt, but hey, it’s an effort in the right direction.
But yeah, things are not gonna get better fast as long as we are cursed with privatisation. What a shit show to see our glorious TGV reduced to a shell of its former self.
Meanwhile I just got an article yesterday that Wuhan is now connected to the super high speed network and the first 450kph train now connects it to Shanghai. Last time I was there the train was already TGV levels of speed and much more modern, and only a year later they are leaving us on the fucking dust…
