Teleportation Blues, Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy

Well, he did move to live on a remote island (no power, no other people, no access for 5 months out of the year without a helicopter) at age 72. Lived there for several years. Also grew much of his own food for a almost 20 years.

I can actually imagine my grandpa doing this. I wouldn’t call him a computer wizard by any means, but he has surprised me before. He will just go to the library, and have the librarians find printed computer magazines which would deal with various connectors, learn about HDMI and composite. Then proceed to find another magazine which has reviews of adapters and take a bus to the big electronics shop to ask about adapters and have them place the order for one.

He actually did this when he needed to digitize some tapes. Granted, he ended up with a firewire-connected external sound card and a tape deck from a hi-fi store connected to Audacity, when all he needed was my old walkman, a 3.5mm cable and Windows Recorder, but hey, it got the job done.

He used to be a researcher and he somehow sees these things just as requiring time to find the right source of information… And time he has.

I could imagine someone’s grandma being the same.

Our galaxy itself contains a hundred billion stars

It’s a hundred thousand light years side to side

It bulges in the middle, six thousand light years thick

But out by us, it’s just a thousand light years wide

We’re thirty thousand light years from galactic central point

We go 'round every two hundred million years

And our galaxy is only one of millions of billions

In this amazing and expanding universe

Time you enjoy wasting is not wasted.

I am very impressed by the detective work there. How do you even…?

That’s not a bad song, is it really mashed together from 7 other songs? Literally unbelievable.

Tea, earl gray, hot is vastly different from hot earl gray tea.

I mean, I am fine with my hobby website being taken down if it starts to consume an unreasonable amount of bandwidth.

They don’t need to give a free tier and I am not entitled to getting anything out of them. Since they have decided to offer one, I do expect to be consulted before sending a bill worth a ferrari.

I just checked I have no payment method on file. Should protect me.

Thanks! I stared at this thinking that I can’t name the object or the character…

Yea this honestly sounds awesome.

This is really well made, kudos!

You took this thinking a lot further than I.

I couldn’t hear myself think because my brain was shouting at me about Rosa not being Kira.

We used to, here in Finland, but I think now they crush them and reform them into new bottles. The things cost 20c/piece, so everyone returns them.

I kind of want to know what it does… Is it like a rumble pack for your ass? And is it intended to improve the gaming experience or is the game supposed to improve sex?

Loric is what Mark Zuckerberg emanates.

Well, he sounds like a right arsehole.

Am I a weirdo for liking Ezri?

Real MVP.
