@deskitty @makyo@snouts.online Aww, she looks really sweet. <3

@rey There's a reason one of my favorite authors calls it "The Internet of Things That Go Bump in the Night". XD

@Leucrotta The faces on the first one is fantastic. XD It's Hammer Time!

And yes, if you've seen me ramble about this elsewhere, I'm REALLY REALLY STOKED. XD

Might even get a couple E5-2600v3 Xeons and slower DDR4 ECC RAM to go with it! O.o;

So my work lab is e-wasting a bunch of stuff and doesn't care if we pick through the bin before it goes out... I just snagged this for my home lab and am so stoked. :D supermicro.com/products/mother

re: Pol (+, amusing twitter post) 

@Felthry It's a meme making fun of ridiculous conclusions that also double making fun of the US classification and redaction systems. :)

I keep seeing a lot of apologies for not being interesting or funny or positive, and I just wanna say:

You are a person, not a brand. You do not need to be consistently anything but yourself. If you need to take a break, that's OK. We're all people, we'll understand.

re: nsfw+sfw fursona art 

@coda Always a good reason to share art. <3

Broke: the good knight saving the princess from the evil dragon

Woke: the princess saving the good dragon from the evil knight

Bespoke: the dragon is a princess, who is revered by the entire kingdom, and also she’s really gay and her polycule of other princesses lives in a huge badass castle with her

- Favorite package?
- Most annoying chemistry?
- Common brand to avoid?
- Opinion on the mil for PCB traces?

re: Notre Dame fire, engineering 

@rey Tbh, I was terrified the heat of the fire and falling wood might crack the vaults. It did in a few places, bust most of them held.

re: Notre Dame fire, engineering 

@rey Oh yeah. The stone vaults are the critical bit. Had they not held, there's a good chance the walls would have collapsed too, and that would have been that. The wooden roof is mostly to protect the stone over the longer term, as well as artistic styling.

And yeah, say what you will of all the things medieval builders did or didn't know, but buildings don't last 850 years by accident.

re: Notre Dame fire, engineering 

@rey Oh yeah. The second I heard the roof was on fire I was like "oh fuck, the whole thing is going to go".

And as far as safety standards, I'd assume they can at least put water sprinklers up there going forward if the run the pipe outside against a wall. Good luck with access, though. The spiral stairs are absolutely tiny. I've been in them and on top of those belltowers.

@faynefluff I feel you on the knee. Got a bad one myself. :( Does sound like you're making solid progress towards your goals, though. <3

re: MH (-) 

@Leucrotta Hugs are always okay. Need them extra at times like this. >.<
