I got on ICQ in 97 or 98 to keep up with friends from a MUD and mine was 7 digits. I haven’t logged into it in over a decade because when I went back to see if anyone from the old game was around none ever showed up online.

It’s unique in it’s looks.
That’s what they said about me.
Hey, leave Drunk Steve out of this. He did nothing wrong.
Roscoe, arrest them Duke boys!
Just tell him the only way to mine it is with windmill power. He’ll change his tune.
No, no, they’re right. I entered my motorcycle in a soapbox derby and won. Everyone agreed we should just light all the derby cars on fire and no soapbox derby cars should ever be made again.
Let me start off by saying I do not disagree. Even without death it can cause nasty stomach pains (not ulcers, though, that myth was dispelled) and cause severe irritation on the way out. In addition, a LOT of folks have undiagnosed conditions. I’m just adding perspective. I see no issue with adding a warning to products seasoned with peppers in the 800k+ range the same way you’d add one for a roller coaster because it absolutely can kill you if you have a medical condition and I’m not so sure that people realize that.
For spicy food to kill an average healthy person, you’d have to consume a few pounds of super hot peppers to get that sweet infarction. Ghost peppers come in around 1,000,000 scoville units and the one chip challenge is seasoned with vipers and reapers which come in under 2m (there’s no official scoville rating that I could find on the chip itself). Some of the nastier sauces (Pure Evil and Plutonium No. 9) come in between 10m and 13m and those are eaten by heat aficionados and idiots looking to prove something with no more ill effects than shitting yourself inside out and pouring milk on your brown eye to relieve the burning.
The story about that kid is absolutely tragic. He was 14 with cardiomegaly and myocardial bridging of the left anterior descending coronary artery (enlarged heart and a congenital defect). I don’t know if he was previously diagnosed (that’s a whole discussion about our healthcare system in the US) but eating a chip like that at 14 with other conditions is a health decision. He didn’t know the risks because there was no health warning and possibly he didn’t know about his condition.
I would buy that.
How much of that is IT and how much is the damn CIO who was appointed because he’s the CEOs wife’s cousin instead of because he knows anything and refuses to change his password?
But I’m not bitter. At least I didn’t get caught in this one.
And an accountant, but yeah this is solid advice. It was definitely something I knew but didn’t realize that it’s harder than it looks back when I did it.
Yep. I’ve done exactly that. Something overlooked a lot of places is to actually start an LLC (it does cost a bit, especially if you’re strapped) if you can because that protects you. If you screw something up by accident a company can either come after you personally or the business that employs you.
Yep, which should change when they release 3.0.
Yes.
I never thought I’d see one of Charlie’s blogs posted around Lemmy unless it was about his books. Good to see him getting some recognition.
Pornhub set up their geofence. X won’t listen and no one will enforce it.
O&G still uses a lot of old versions as well. I remember back in the Win 7 days when I had to set up a 95 virtual machine and register a bunch of DLLs by hand plus set up a fake A: drive because even the 95 version of the software was garbage. A friend of mine did something similar but he got it working on the Win 7 machine somehow. I never understood how, but he left a script behind at the company he worked for because it needed to be reinstalled every time someone did something stupid and he didn’t want to do it by hand.
Same. My Dark Reader doesn’t always show websites properly but Firefox hasn’t let me down in ages.
“You won’t believe number 6!”
10/10, I’m singing that at karaoke this weekend.
I drank a drink made from a potato once and I say you’re qualified.
