       @Sir_Boops I was just thinking 200 = Fucking have it, but that works too.

       @clacke And somehow it never occurs to them to raise their sons to not attack women :/

       @mwlucas Funny thing: I'm pretty sure there are trans guys who could give _me_ lessons on those subjects.But I'm not going to wear suspenders, either way. I'm just a belt person.

       @telent Depends on what connotations seem to be attached.If it sounds like they mean "the best approach we've collectively found so far," I'm fine with it.But if it's pronounced with anything resembling reverence, that's when I start worrying that they'll expect it to be followed blindly and uncritically.

       @clacke It's hilarious, at least if you grew up there.Most of the humour should translate,  and the funny accent should make up for the rest.

       @Sir_Boops You're not kidding. My motorbike has a boot sequence.

       @Canageek @KitRedgrave As long as there's a corresponding (and shorter) expiry period after which the author is free to negotiate a new publisher. With that, I'd back this.I gather it's a popular thing with record companies, to bury an album with failure to promote it, then claim it as a tax write-off. Oh, that was the culmination of your life's work as a musician? Sucks to be you, but we own it so we can do what we want.

       @clacke I'm going full Pollyanna on this one, and hoping they're trying to further socialise acceptance of non-cis-het people among the celebrity gossip set.

       @clacke Sadly, I think you're right.

       @kaniini Of course, if the ignorant redneck doesn't *have* a gun, they *can't* shoot anybody.

       @Sir_Boops Could be worse. Like: Install Windows ME.

       @grainloom CL does have exactly that (and more) in its exception-handling system, but it's not something you'll pick up in a day.Clojure ditched that exception-handling, so IIUC it's level with Java (and Python) on that front.Good news, though: I just searched and found https://common-lisp.net/project/cl-selenium/ so yes, it does also have Selenium bindings.

       @clacke Probably because nobody's been that perceptive so far (boom tish).It'd be a great name for a Haskell implementation of a CL VM, though.

       @clacke Arguably, that depends on the marble in question.In a good-quality block, sculpture merely removes the detritus that gets in the way.Weaker, more comprehensively flawed marble may turn out to be nothing _but_ detritus :)

       @dogjaw @clacke I think of perl6 much like that tree in the forest: if it ever matures enough for a gold release, will anybody care?

       @Sir_Boops It's certainly badly written. Are they trying to assert that transphobia and/or homophobia is something you're born with, or that non-cis-het people are somehow tacitly admitting that their state is morally wrong?

       @djsundog Witnessing the transformation from the PET, though Sinclair's and Commodore's breakthroughs, to what we have now, was quite a ride.

       @sir But mostly just causes shit to break at the most inconvenient time, even if the Nvidia hardware isn't even in the path of what's going on.

       That moment when I though "hey, swingpunk could be pretty cool!"The next moment when I pointed out to myself that they did that already, and we called it rock'n'roll.Good times.
