I mean, as a speaker of a dialect where the comic's joke worked, but also as a nerd who loves letting people nerd out, I'd love to hear more.
In my dialect/accent, ladder and latter are full homophones when spoken.

What is your lunch? Rice and beans with a veggie side? Anything else?
There's no superscript here in Voyager. Just a couple stray cat's ears.
I still get notifications that say "your reviews are popular! Over 1200 people have viewed them. Can you fill in details about [some place I stopped in the parking lot to check the map]?”
Careful, though: reading (past tense of 'to read') doesn't rhyme with Reading (place name)
There's an Atlas Shrugged movie? 🤮
I do all kinds of work I don't get paid for. I only seek pay because of the stupid system that says I have to if I want to feed my cats.
So it seems. We do have a ton of color photos from the era from This guy (Sergey Prokudin-Gorskii).
He took three b&w photos through filters at the same time, then would project them through filters to get the color.
What sort options are you using? If you're using top [time period] (which is what my defaults are), I see nothing, but when I switch to "new," I see posts, the most recent of which is 5 days old...
Yeah. As I've seen someone else put it, "we're glad you're here" is far better than "what took you so long"
Err... What's an AED over there? Over here that stands for automated external defibrillator.
I found it!
Ace here: I have plenty of sex drive, but am not attracted to anyone. I didn't come up with it, but a good analogy is feeling like eating, but you open the fridge and nothing in particular is calling to you.
If you are (or can imagine being) straight or gay, or even just have "a type"... There are people you don't feel inclined to fuck. For me, that set of people is everyone I've met so far. I've been in relationships, albeit rarely, but it's always been when the other person showed a lot of interest to get things started.
There are also people who feel like sex is gross, and not all of them have trauma in their history.
I haven't, but a colleague (small all remote web dev outfit) plays rocket league and had said that pop!os has felt great for games without having to tweak anything. Meanwhile, I tried to play through cult of the lamb while some friends were all playing through it and it wasn't playable
Yep. I got a thinkpad a couple years ago that was enough of a deal that I forgave its nvidia GPU. I followed the documentation on how to connect a repo controlled by nvidia, and since then: a) the actual GPU appears to be used, but b) maximum brightness on the screen is significantly dimmer, and games run worse than they did when the GPU wasn't actually used.
And also I use KDE. I'm still on X11, though, so I didn't complete the set.
That's good to know, thanks. I don't get asked for Linux advice that often, but I'll just recommend mint unless there are extreme hardware restrictions (which I'm sure mint can work with, but I've looked for whatever modern lightweight-focused distro is when it's a concern)
I'll try that soon. Tbf, it's absurdly easy to roll back with snapper if I make a change and it's not better, I just haven't gotten around to it.
Yeah. "I use OpenSUSE tumbleweed, but have reasons I've been thinking about switching. I consistently hear that mint is a good place to start, or maybe pop!os if you're looking to run games"
I don't actually even say the first sentence unless the question was "what do you use?"
Sometimes, if it's clear they're trying to revive very old hardware I might help them search for something built around being lightweight.
I'm mostly happy with tumbleweed, except that I have the nvidia repo set up and am convinced that it's causing issues. One of these days I'll look into how to try the nouveau drivers and/or how to get from my current setup to dualbooting pop!os without disrupting things I need for work.
Also, an update straight up broke emacs while i was in crunch time once, but I learned to be more careful about my update timing.
