For sure… I was trying to imply that they had a bunch of jokes specifically about him getting shot at, which might now be considered in poor taste.

I really hope it’s just because they didn’t have time to rewrite the jokes ;-)
Worst experience. Fairly new at a dotcom and moving from the satellite office to the big-time (same building as these loosers who were trying to do DVDs by mail, LOL ;-) and getting the shown around and introduced to various department heads.
Met the VP of IT and Sr. Systems admin, joked that it looked like they lived there… found out they had been battling a nasty virus all weekend that had infected most of our desktops and was evading our standard AV package, it was taking several runs of a special cleaner or just a wipe/reinstall.
Got introduced to lots of other folks, learned many more things, almost entirely forgot about the virus. A few hours later I’m waiting for my boss to finish a “quick” meeting I wasn’t invited to and getting bored. But I want to seem like a responsible employee (and I was caught up with /. from earlier in the day) so I decided to log in and check my email.
And the inbox boings start. Don’t even have a functioning desktop yet and I can literally hear the virus spreading across the office. I’d manage to pick an old desktop in the IT area that hadn’t been cleaned yet. Fortunately a lot of computers were still off from the cleanup effort, so my fuckup was limited to a 6-7 systems, but that was still hours of additional work for the small IT team after they had already given up their weekend.
It’s definitely not the worst virus I’ve ever had to deal with with. But it was definitely the most visible/shameful virus related fuckup I’ve ever been responsible for.
Wouldn’t work unless it was more expensive or fragile than the router ;-)
So just a personal theory then?
There was definitely a time when I would have called this seriously tinfoil-hat… but given the stuff that keeps coming out, the industries support for community recycling programs that they knew would never work, etc. I’m giving it a 7/10 for probably and a 10/10 for creativity ;-)
Personally I tend to believe that generally well meaning people thought that paper straw technology would continue to improve, didn’t involve PFAS or microplastics… or that we’d all carry around a personal straw. But I do love the smoke filled room of mad men architecting a masterful conspiracy propped on the plastic shoulders of the humblest of columns.
Got any more info on the plastic straw plot? Because I’d love for that to be true, but I’m just getting craploads of articles saying the opposite.
What else ya’ got under that rock? Cuz’ these things brick themselves if you miss a monthly payment on your ink subscription.
1x40P Male L-11.96mm or the next one should work.
“Machined pin 0.1 headers” are the fancy kind. Just get the males from the same listing, I’ve never seen them sold loose.
So cool!
We need something like themissingpages.com where kids/teachers can download a nice book specific supplement for their textbooks. Same font and language style, similar art…
Obviously the information is out there for anyone interested to find. But this would be a nice fuck-you :-)
Shot down Blue Thunder and the USS Enterprise ;-)
You really want a breathable non-credible defense vehicle for those hot summer days.
I thought it was Covid but I’m starting to think he always looks like a plague victim in a renaissance painting…
Wrapped in plastic like Laura Palmer.
LOL 😂
One of mom’s friends kept on getting sick, turned out it was moldy paintbrushes the whole time…
Paint brushes and rollers.
Darkweb!
Starfleet gives them the option of either the traditional bakini top or bottoms, but you still gotta wear the onesie, so most just skip it.
I always loved the one looking longingly out at the cat… you can tell there’s a higher calling keeping him there, but he desperately wants to dog.
