calliope

Thank you!

I actually wondered if the article mentioned that and I just missed it. I went back to check and apparently missed it twice.

I’m genuinely surprised they’ve been able to handle the traffic for this long. The numbers are staggering!

Yes I imagine that’s almost always the case.

It would be fun from a chaos perspective to just suddenly limit those who are making too many calls.

Maybe it wouldn’t be that chaotic and builds would fail, but I still like the idea.

Charging is a good idea.

In any case it would not be crazy to rate-limit. If you’re downloading the same 10,000 components a million times, you deserve to be limited.

I have genuinely never understood it.

People heard the horror stories, and not only were they like “yeah I’ll do that,” they wanted to eventually do it to others.

Ooh sparkling archive actually sounds really fancy, I’ll start using that

Agreed, and OP saying “a huge fluke” is demonstrably not true.

The game everyone remembers from the last Olympics with NHL players (2014) was also USA vs. Canada. 0-0 until overtime, when Crosby scored a goal after 7 minutes and 40 seconds (if I remember correctly, I looked it up the other day). Incredible moment.

So, the last time they met in a similarly competitive game they played nearly 68 minutes of hockey without either team scoring a goal.

It’s not a fluke, it’s how their games often work.

Have you tried tagspaces? It’s not primarily an editor (from what I can tell) but if you want to split file editing from grouping/tagging, it might be worth a shot.

I haven’t tried it but I will, because I really like ways to organize files that don’t require actually changing the files themselves!

Sometimes solving the problems separately (organizing and editing) can be better for specific purposes. on a computer with a keyboard, I like an editor that just edits.

Canada in hockey is a lot like U.S. basketball (in the summer Olympics).

If they don’t win gold, everyone is going to be very surprised.

I laughed out loud when I finally realized what band was saying this.

Humorously, the lead singer is named Jim (Adkins), but the band’s name comes from the backing vocalist/guitarist Tom’s brother, also named Jim.

The band’s name came from a crayon drawing made after an incident between [Tom] Linton’s younger brothers, Jim and Ed Linton, who fought frequently. Jim usually won, but Ed sought revenge by drawing a picture of Jim shoving the Earth into his mouth; Ed captioned the picture “Jimmy eat world”.

That’s actually why I looked it up! I was like “oh is he finally going down the drain?”

Not yet. Evil lives longer than good so he seems fine, but we can take comfort in the fact that he isn’t seeking re-election in 2026.

He’s 83, way too old to be a senator. He turns 84 on February 20th and I hope he dies before then.

Unfortunately, Mitch McConnell didn’t have another stroke like he deserves to.
