I started smoking to have an excuse to hang out with the theatre kids. It worked.

I really liked nicotine when I first started. I think it affects my ADHD in a way similar to other stimulants, and the effect is very nice. I understand why people say nicotine helps them think; I don't know if it's actually helpful for any kind of thinking but it certainly felt like I was thinking more quickly and clearly. After using it for a while though, I stopped feeling it.

You are correct, I guess "Permanent Ubuntu Live USB" isn't really accurate as I tend to distro hop. I picked Purple because I was using Ubuntu at the time, then I came to associate that one with "current linux image" and the others were more situational. This was about the same time I came to realize that for 99% of file transfers it was easier to just scp things across the network rather than dig a USB drive out of the drawer, so pretty soon after I bought them the only thing I used them for was bootable images, and for whatever reason Purple has been the first choice for that task, so I'm pretty sure it has had more writes than the other four put together.

cross-region failovers are a thing, but they're expensive to maintain so not everyone does it. I am kinda surprised one region failure had this much impact though

No one ever got fired for buying IBM.

Something about the circle of life

Fun dinosaur fact: Chickens (and all birds) are direct descendants of theropod dinosaurs, where crocodiles are descended from a distinct branch of Archosaurs (the group that also includes dinosaurs and by extension, birds). So of the two, the chicken is evolutionarily closer to dinosaurs. In fact, technically speaking, chickens are dinosaurs.

You might be able to do a find and replace with https://github.com/pymupdf/PyMuPDF . I'm not an expert on PDFs, so I'm not sure if it can be done in a way that preserves all the important formatting, but if you feel comfortable DMing me the PDF (or one of similar complexity) I could try to write a script that replaces all instances of the target text in a way that preserves the rest of the document.

To make matters worse, Jurassic Park spliced together dino DNA fragments with frog DNA to make their "dinosaurs", so your dino meat might taste froggier depending on where you get it from. Non-GMO dino nuggets probably taste indistinguishable from chicken.

LMAO and they say art is dead

No. I'm asking if you are endorsing rape as an acceptable punishment in cases where you are highly confident, beyond a reasonable doubt, that someone is a fascist.
