Crazy Lee Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 Well that was both sad and wonderful. On FB, I saw someone share a gif of a bunch of people's selfies. Young people. Many of them very fit males. Kinda gay looking. The gif flipped through them all. Then I realized who the selfies were of. Yep. Certain Orlando residents. Then pictures of Muslims in gay pride parades, wearing rainbow flags. Some muslim lesbian and gay couples. People with "Proud Trans Muslim" signs. "Proud to be Muslim and Queer." ect ect. So, LGBT Muslims. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrGravitas Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 That one task, the one that was dropped from the last build due to requirement changes, has had even more requirements added half-a-week after to code was supposed to be frozen for testing. Nevermind that the either means by which data is acquired changed on the freeze date and now has changed again. The new requirement was added on that day, too, but I was only made aware of it today. I can't even stay late to work on it, because of after-hours monitoring! It's going to be ptobably a week behind, which is going to reduce the time available to test this entirely new workflow. The wheels on the task train have long since flown off, it has derailed in midtown, and is coasting along the pavement in violation of all known laws of physics while its condutor flips off Sir Isaac Newton. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B) The security guard was armed and even shot back at the shooter. People still died. Armed citizens can't prevent everything. C) The shooter snuck in a back door.

I remember reading an article once about a baby being on the no-fly list because it shared their name with someone on the terror watch list. I haven't found verification yet, though, but it wouldn't surprise me if our government had the double whammy of 'putting the wrong people on the list and leaving the dangerous ones off of it' and 'not forbidding the ones on the list to purchase weapons or destructive materials' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy Lee Posted June 16, 2016 Share Posted June 16, 2016 This morning a Canadian Geese flock was in the middle of the road I was trying to travel down. Most of them started moving either way when I slowly approached, but one brave one walked towards me, hissing and honking. So I honked back. Bitch was running away as fast as his flat feet could take him. Moral? Don't mess with something larger and louder than you. Also, on the next 2 lane road I had some bitch in an SUV literally driving down my tailpipe while I was doing 55mph, which is why I hate morning rush hour and wish they would all die in a nuclear fire.

Victor-933 Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 My dad gave me an old mantle clock he picked up at a boot sale a while back, and I put it on the bookshelf and have been messing with it. As far as I can figure, it dates to the 1920s or 1930s, and features a German-made Franz Hermle movement in an English-made case. It's an eight-day clock (meaning it runs for eight days on one winding) and has Westminster quarter chimes (same melody as Big Ben). Absolute pain in the ass to get running right though -- as it uses a free pendulum, it needs to be leveled and balanced properly, and the pendulum itself currently needs adjusting as it runs a bit too fast. By comparison, most modern reproductions use a floating balance mechanism which is a lot less demanding. Still a nice clock though, with very pleasant chimes.

DrGravitas Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 9am demo. They told me it was front-end stuff. First thing they did was ask me to demo all my back-end stuff. DX I froze and feigned having trouble hearing what they said (tbf, a 4-way conference call gets really muddy and all of us had actual trouble hearing at parts.) Thankfully, on repeating they also chose their words differently and asked me to TALK them through what I was doing. It was rough, but it sounds like they were satisfied with it.

"Is... is this an act?" Oh I dunno, he collapsed, the music stopped, and a bunch of personal rushed to the stage to aid him. Hmm I wonder!

That's how expensive gas is. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
