    I can't even count the amount of times I've sent some variation of "Yeah, so I think we should reboot the server:wq" into irc

    Funny you should mention IRC as that's how I met that coworker in the first place. I miss the good old days of IRC. Freenode was a blast back in the day.

      IRC is still around! I run my own server and everything. It's still a blast 🙂

        Broom dustpans don't need a fucking lip. You're sitting there repeatedly sweeping the same dirt into the same pan instead of a simple one and done because that way if you hold the pan up perfectly level like a fucking sociopath the dirt doesn't fall out.

          Or maybe you don't know what you're talking about.

          It would explain this reaction, and why you're no longer confident when pressed to give details.

          Or maybe you're just a sealioning loser that should shut the F up and find something else to do with their time vs being an annoyance online.

            Hating daylight savings isn't weird, it's dumb and everyone knows it's dumb.

            Timezones are arbitrary lines on the map that were made when trains were new and there was no good way to coordinate otherwise. We are way past that, everyone has an automatically synced and precise way of telling time on them pretty much at all times. The "time" is an arbitrary number. Noon is not when the sun is highest in the sky most of the year unless you live near the equator, midnight is rarely "the middle of the night", 9 to 5 should be deleted, and have one universal time would be one step closer to uniting human kind.

            Timezones are fucking dumb, it's not the 1800s. I'll fight to the death over this.

                If everyone in the world was on one universal time, some people would be functioning in the dark while people on the other side of the world are functioning in the daylight. Not fair. Time zones are essential. And yes, in most places in the world, 12:00 p.m. is when the sun is highest in the sky.

                  Why would they be working in the dark? They'd still get up in the morning, go to work, come home in the evening, etc.... just the number on the clock would be different

                      Huh, no?
                      There's a literal trumpet at the end of the book series. Like the musical instrument. It's incredibly dumb.

                      Edit: I'm almost certain Stephen King hates Trump.

                        Right, i forgot about that. That's how memorable the ending was, for me.

                          Yeah it's really bad. Your gripe is justified in my eyes.

                            There’s surprisingly a fair bit of overlap on the gear ratios of a 2 or 3x that makes a 1x11 or 12 have a similar range of ratios. However you do have to sacrifice either a bit of top end speed or climbing ability so you see a few more 2x on road bikes. I’ve never found myself wanting more from my 1x mtb drivetrain

                            Wait, you said a 1x can have a similar range, and then immediately followed up with:

                            you do have to sacrifice either a bit of top end speed or climbing ability

                            It is impossible for both statements to be true at the same time.

                              Or some differences in gear spacing. I’m not an expert in it, but tried my best to summarize a succinctly as possible
