A friend has a solarium in her home that needs re-caulking indoors and outdoors.
She's looking for someone with the following skills:
- Very comfortable and safe working on a high ladder. There are two stories of windows in the solarium on the second floor.
- Experienced with caulking exterior windows.
She has a scaffold for the interior work, and if necessary can borrow a tall ladder for exterior work.
I can pass on contact info.

At least it probably doesn't have letters that look like latin letters, but sound like different latin letters, like cyrillic. I'm looking at you, C, H, N, P, and others.

White guy is complaining that people object to choices.
Marine in comic is not objecting. He's ordering what he wants. He wants a black coffee.
The barista keeps offering anything but a black coffee. Lady in line complains that the sale is not being completed.No one in the comic is complaining about too many choices. The white analyst guy is projecting his "people complain about too many choices" hangup on the comic.

I don't get it. The white guy's analysis of the cartoon analyzes some other cartoon (that we cannot see), it is not derived from this one.
In other words, white guy "analyst" is projecting his viewpoint inappropriately on this comic.

Wow, so Google has to keep a database of all these links online indefinitely ... that's robust. For the sarcasm-impaired: that was sarcasm.
And, they can decide which document's links to "break" when they feel like it.
Stop. Using. Google. At. All. For. Anythhing.

I remember being a grade 1 or 2 kid, we lived on top floor (3rd floor) apartment. In a heat wave, parents said we could sleep on the floor instead of in bed.
It was a little uncomfortable due to hardness, but provided a little relief from heat.In conversation from fosstodon.org permalink -

@ryanc
I voted again and a bunch of results popped up, similar to the old results. So maybe the poll data is not lost.
Either that or a bunch of people re-voted. I didn't look at totals ... maybeIn conversation from fosstodon.org permalink -

@johnefrancis @hacks4pancakes
It kinda made me worry less about pancakes, I think they cannot seize you and deport you from Canadian-based location? If Pancakes was rejected, they could have just got on a flight home instead of being sent to El Salvador (or wherever it is).In conversation from fosstodon.org permalink -

@evan Is the comparison result supposed to be transitive? Ie (ignoring incorrect results) if (a better than b) and (b better than c), can we conclude that (a better than c)?

Listening to your Gnu World Order podcast.
I always thought the "dpy" in "xdpyinfo" stands for "display": x display info.Also, xeyes is useful for big, busy screens ... you can get a hint on where the cursor is by looking at the eyes. For those who do use the mouse, but seldom.
Plus it's fun to move the cursor in a figure eight around each eye and make them look left, up, crosseyed, down, right, up, cross-eyed, ... etc.@gnuWorldOrder
