Believe it or not, I know the feeling. Took a vacation to Scotland like 10 years ago with the wife-to-be. Didn’t know anything shout the Fringe festival in Edinburgh and ended up there right in the middle of it with our rented car. Got used to driving on the opposite side of the road and car pretty quickly, but I was still remarkably proud of parallel parking in backwards-driving-world surrounded by street performers and tourists and doing it all on the first try. It was beautiful. We were perfectly equidistant from the surrounding cars, exactly 6 inches from the curb, in a manual transmission Jeep Renegade rental we picked up in Glasgow. To this day, it is my greatest parking achievement, without question. Still brings a tear to my eye reminiscing.
I also abandoned ship and signed up for Lemmy on June 12. we’re twinses.
Remember when Darl showed some “encrypted code” that he claimed was stolen and added to Linux and it was really just some POSIX definitions from a header file taken from BSD “encrypted” with a wing dings font? Those were some wild times.
We literally have none of those things.
Edit: except perhaps the citizenship certificate but I’ve never seen one before, but yeah they exist. We don’t have ranked voting, and elections aren’t holidays, although your employer must give you paid time off to vote, like 3 hours, and there are exceptions of course, like truckers for some reason don’t get the time off.
Sisters Euclid. They were a Canadian band who recently called it a career after like 27 years of mostly-under-the-radar instrumental jangle jazz, or something to that effect. They did win a Juno for an album of Neil Young instrumentals and reinterpretations called “Run Neil Run”, but outside of the Toronto are and southwest Ontario I don’t think they were widely known. Members of the band have played in all sorts of other bands and with other folks, many of which y’all would recognize like Norah Jones and the Doobie Brothers, they all really accomplished musicians. I saw them live dozens of times before they called it a day, and I always saw and heard something new with every performance. Seeing them live was definitely the best way to take them in, as their studio albums seemed like they were just scaffolding for the live shows.
Hoping for a reunion show in 5-10 years. I’d travel for it.
I haven’t posted on Reddit since they treated third party app devs like shit. I’m done with that site.
Nah it’d be fine, just stay in the shade bro.
For folks who don’t know, these guys are most famous for the theme to The Kids In The Hall.
Bought a new computer, threw the old one out.
I don’t know about all that, but I did catch his appearance on the American version of Whose Line Is It Anyway?…
Use etc-keeper, saves everything in a git repo and integrates with a bunch of package managers. Been using it for decades it feels like now.
Morpheus: “Free… your… mind “ as he jumps an impossible gap between two high rise buildings.

‘Member when Trump said he’d take guns without due process? Like he literally said that.
Do non-Catholics not know the general shape of a cross? A lowercase T?
I predict Trump will make a day-one promise to remove this tariff calling it terrible, just terrible.
I hope they keep with the dinosaur theme and go with the Toronto Procompsognathuses.
It was basically a standard Bobcat set, wot the addition of the Kill Seinfeld shirt as seen here. Apparently they’ve been feuding for at least 30 years. This shirt would have come out after the feud started, where Bobcat was basically talking shit about Seinfeld on Arsenio. Most 90s sentence ever.
