@JasonC You're at least a decade late.

There was a lot of interesting stuff on the internet in the 80s. More than now, proportionately.

user202362

internet back in the 80s/90s are what I call as the 'free net', nowadays, it's herding net controlled by cooperations

Malapropism

A malapropism (also called a malaprop or Dogberryism) is the use of an incorrect word in place of a word with a similar sound, resulting in a nonsensical, often humorous utterance. An example is the statement by baseball player Yogi Berra, "Texas has a lot of electrical votes", rather than "electoral votes". Malapropisms also occur as errors in natural speech and are often the subject of media attention, especially when made by politicians or other prominent individuals. Philosopher Donald Davidson has noted that malapropisms show the complex process through which the brain translates thoughts...

Bach, Fugue in C-sharp minor, WTC I, BWV 849

The Ugly Duckling.

@bjb568 There a lot more where that ^^^^^ came from.

I love the graphics on the PacMan voice.

1:00 AM

@tchrist To be fair, "post 1990" is roughly equivalent to "after the 80s".

But actually I'm talking more about internet technology development than content.

The concepts got all muddled because I suck at the whole idea → language thing.

OMG I DON'T NEED TO TYPE -> I WROTE A USERSCRIPT FOR THIS

bjb568

@tchrist Ooh, that one's pretty good.

@bjb568 It's the only triple-fugue in either book. The animator uses a distinct shape for each of the three themes.

@JasonC It certainly helped get things going when we invented DNS in 83.

bjb568

@JasonC lel, I just use keyboard replacements, I'd need to use like a hundred different buttons.

Bach, Ricercar a 6 (from The Musical Offering)

Lozenge = theme#1, teardrop = theme#2, arrowhead = theme#3

Five voices but three totally different themes.

He's got the six-voice fugue from the Musical Offering there, too. Kinda scary.

Only one theme, though.

@Jason, if I were you, I would wait outside @Gerry's place with a spicy frozen tuna for 1337 actions, I think he has been insulting you enough. Don't let him get away!

I haven't seen any insults

user202362

ikr ... he's so ashamed, he even changed his name!

user202362

but couldn't resist and come back to insult you more!

@TimStone Is there any way to construct URLs from post/comment IDs in a cross-site query?

@rene ^ Do you know any tricks?

@Andrew @Norm changed again. You're slow.

you can feel the burning love between JasonC and NormalHuman

user202362

like Lava that's going to flow over the frozen spicy tuna

@ShadowWizard ergh, I didn't notice until Jason asked.. and I don't know the reference to the name, so I don't know what to change to :(

@Telkitty didn't find. Only this:

I'm using Blender to do some 2D, shape-based animation. Everything you see here is a Bézier shape. To animate the mouth and eyes independently, I add holes to the head shape and then stack the eye and mouth parts below it with an orthogonal camera. This works OK, but it's not perfect. For o...

@Telkitty Smoked fish is delicious!

user202362

plenty way of eating ... or using tuna

user202362

tuna is awesome, you can use it as a weapon, then eat it

user202362

by the time police reaches you, you would have eaten most the tuna, and your cats would have eaten the rest

I'm about 25% done with 2017...

2:35 PM

@Gerry Well we have 25% of that year done, don't we?

@Gerry you doesn't sound too excited about it

3:04 PM

@Bart I was about to edit out dumb ass here but I see both you and ChrisF already did some salvaging there. So I assume that word was left in as compromise?

shame that he has 10k on somewhere else..

yay, free flag!

heh, already gone

I mean... this is a rant. Dry fact.

@AndrewT. What do you think of another answer in ^, android.stackexchange.com/a/172009 ?

I guess that guardian apk may be a legitimate suggestion...

@Gerry I flagged it as spam. It's a direct copy paste from a comment on accepted answer. The inserted link is not related to the said app (Lucky Patcher)

I think we're getting to the bottom of this.

You can use *text* to get bold, I think.

@πάνταῥεῖ heh, and OP name is Goodman. Funny. :D

But your comment wasn't offensive even a tiny bit in SO standards. lol

On SO standards, your comment was sweet and lovely.

@DavidPostill Nah, I honestly have no idea how to do that stuff :P. I did a task for the Google Code-In (I did absolutely no programming, with a slight exception) that involved Haiku, so that was something I encountered.

in The Reading Room on The Stack Exchange Network Chat, Feb 12 at 20:19, by Mithrandir

I don't code, except for ciphers...

in Charcoal HQ on The Stack Exchange Network Chat, Feb 8 at 13:20, by Mithrandir

Good thing I don't code.

in The Reading Room on The Stack Exchange Network Chat, Jan 28 at 19:43, by Mithrandir

I don't code

@АлексейШиманский Hmm. I've never actually been to ru-so, since I don't code and don't speak Russian...

I have more examples of me saying I don't code... :P

in The Sphinx's Lair on The Stack Exchange Network Chat, Dec 18 '16 at 13:12, by Mithrandir

I don't code, so it's not like I can do anything else.

I don't code either, I'm a trained monkey that insert random numbers and text in files on GitHub. Sometimes my changes don't break existing stuff which I call a lucky day.

@rene Actually, that sounds like what I did:

in The Sphinx's Lair on The Stack Exchange Network Chat, Dec 17 '16 at 20:41, by Mithrandir

Did I mention that I don't program at all, and yet I'm doing the GCI?

in Ye Olde Hat Shoppe on The Stack Exchange Network Chat, Dec 19 '16 at 19:45, by Mithrandir

I don't use SO at all because I don't program...
