63·8 days agoA company at which I once worked built a functioning server into the frame of a motorcycle. It was after I left, so I’m not sure of the details, including whether it had to be plugged in; but regardless, they called it “the world’s fastest server!” and I think that’s pretty funny.
Well, I have to respect his commitment and discretion.

2·11 days agoSo, almost dozen?
I had the same experience recently … The doctor was clearly annoyed.
And I understand why. It was a dental surgery. Probably performing one of those is challenging while your patient is nervously blabbing.
The last thing I remember before waking up is the doctor saying “okay, you get one more question” and me saying something irrelevant.
For my first surgery I had been told something like the above. I was twelve and didn’t have much to be embarrassed about, other than the things that might worry every twelve year old boy, but I was still concerned. When I was in recovery I asked the surgeon “what did I say while I was under?”
He responded “I’m sworn to silence.” I worried about that for months if not years, especially because I had to have two more surgeries under his care.
Nothing embarrassing was ever publicized AFAIK.
I can feel the liquid spreading through my veins - specifically my chest - but it doesn’t feel painful. Rather it feels pleasantly cold like drinking a fresh glass of water. I’m sorry your experience was less pleasant.
The first time I ever had surgery, I was anxious in advance. My mom told me “don’t worry, usually what happens if that they ask you to count down from ten and by the time you get to nine you’re asleep.” She was right.
I’m approaching my ninth or possibly tenth surgery and I’m pretty sure I haven’t been asked to count down since. The most recent time I had surgery, when I woke up, I asked when we were going to start.
I’m not exactly sure how I’d trap someone in a wall hole without injuring them, personally.
Isn’t passing how pp times happen?

1·16 days agoI’m currently on my phone and I’m not going to try to figure out how to test regex on Graphene. Therefore I can only say: well done!
Mine does.
Even within a few hours of setting it, it’s usually off by at least a few hours. My microwave is usually pretty accurate to within a few minutes, even after days.
We share the same dinna!

4·21 days agoI try to avoid “this” style comments, but I genuinely don’t know how else to respond to this one. It was hilarious. I literally (by which I actually mean “literally”) laughed out loud.

I just don’t print.
