@Alonealastalovedalongthe I would never allow it in a kitchen of my own. But some people prefer it. :shrug:

@Alonealastalovedalongthe I grew up in a house with wall to wall carpet in the kitchen. It is still carpeted.

Hello can somebody explain all the excitement this morning about the royal welding? I for one believe people should pursue their dreams but wealth and power alone should not be justification for handling an oxyacetylene torch without proper safety precautions.

@craigmaloney "A distinctly sparkling, clear beverage made with water and flavorings fresh from the earth itself, bottled with love on the shores of Zug Island."

@saper @phooky That's as likely as anything I could come up with. It's also possible it's an analogous product for an IBM competitor's systems, since it physically doesn't resemble IBM's SLT products.

Searching on the item number (1488503) doesn't bring up anything useful, which is kind of unusual for old mainframe hardware.

@angristan Do not assign the output of Array.splice().

foo = [];
foo.splice(0,0,'a');
console.log(foo); // ['a']

@joshmillard Orange you glad I didn't say banana?

The verb form of "red" is "redden". The adjective form of "gold" is "golden". But the only form of "orange" is "orange".

@CobaltVelvet Thanks for toughing it out! It's really appreciated!

@sonicbooming @starbreaker For the past half-dozen years or so many sites have been redesigned because the front-end and/or platform have dead-ended and can't reasonably be incrementally improved.

The reasons are usually about money in some way, of course, but as often as not a ground-up redesign is necessary to provide accessibility and better web security. So you have to take the irritating (more ads) with the good, and try to ignore the marketer bizspeak they're wrapping their rationales in
