dragon attack survivor

That's one way to describe a burglar who came with a group to kill and plunder. And succeeded in both without major troubles.

No one tell them that they can monopolize solar panels.

Meanwhile Nim:

echo "I am still worthy"
let a = r"I hate the ugly '\' at the end of " &
         "multiline statements"
for x in 0..9:
  if x == 6: echo x

echo x # this is error in Nim, but not in python. Insane!
assert false + 1 # this is an error (python devs in shambles)
assert true - 1 # see above

Thanks for coming to my Ted-talk.

Ubuntu: 😮why?

For a lot of people Ubuntu is the linux. Canonical is just good at marketing. For all it worth, Ubuntu is not the bad choice for average user who's not into ricing and not bothered by bloat.

Manjaro: haven’t you managed to kill it yet?

I've been using Arch and Manjaro for couple years each and in my experience they both break regularly. But, for some weird reason, Arch Linux is praised, when Manjaro is shamed upon.

Mint: ex windows guy?

Aren't we all?

What assistant? I've never had any annoying popups.
Is it not available for android 11?

Or it could be because I've had "Google" app disabled for the past 3 years.

Wandavision was a 10/10 series for me, until they reintroduced all the usual boring superhero marvel slop back.

It had interesting characters, humor, mystery, weird unsettling feeling when simulation was a bit off. But they had to ruin it and replace with lots of bad CGI effects.

One of the more famous and recent examples is a buryat mummy of Dashi Dorzho Itigilov

His mummy is extra creepy because it has elastic skin, hair and fat so it looks as if he's still alive (see pic in the article):

According to Buryat Buddhists, Itigilov’s body is so well preserved because the Lama is still living, having achieved the higher meditative state known as śūnyatā, or emptiness

Then you just wait until somebody enters in.
When the person opens the door you run to them and yell "wait wait wait" while frantically gesturing. After you enter - say quick "thank you" and disappear.

I was stupid enough to use one wire and not two, or I wouldn’t be here typing this

Well, I was smarter, but, thankfully, still here.
I was maybe 5 years old when one day I decided for some reason that I have to know how the electricity works "first hand". So I took an electrical plug with a wire from dad's tool box. It had two exposed copper ends. I plugged it in the outlet and while trying to inspect the "electricity" flow I, most likely accidentaly, have completed the circuit with my hand.

Interesting how the experience wasn't painful it's just muscles in your body get tense and you literally can't drop the wire or move at all. Thank god my Dad was around and maybe 10 seconds after I got shocked he pulled the plug. I had no serious injuries: just burns, a bit of shock and a lifelong lesson.

P.S. It was a 220V outlet too. But I'm not sure if it's more dangerous than the US ones.

nope, Nephilim

 

Probably a long way from being daily-driven, but I really love the idea.
