Error’d: Just Beastly

Not to be outdone by Michael R., another prolific
participant styles himself The Beast In Black.
A handful of his experiences follow here. [psst. Mr Black.
Check out this explanation of a
half-closed interval)

Buyer Beast bemoans
“I knew that the global situation was bad, but
when Amazon starts offering disdiscounts (or
discountcounts, perhaps?) you know that the
world is truly up the toilet without a paddle roll.”

 

Norse Beast had a dinner date in Oslo?
“I’ve heard that that location is a nice place to visit
or meet up, but you wouldn’t want to live there.”

 

Past Beast predicted we’d post this after the events
in question out of an abundance of caution, lest we provoke
a paradox and disappear in a flash of logic. He was right.
“This malware scanner works to detect malware from the
future too (the screenshot is from 2024-02-16)”, he explained.
It finds <0days! (Or. Maybe it creates them.)

 

Speaking of paradoxes, Gamer Beast should ask Zeno
why it’s taking so long. But he’s blaming F. Ross Johnson.
“Given this level of Lehman-Brothers-level money
math, no wonder we still haven’t got Half Life 3.”

 

And now that we have reached the end of this week’s treats,
a timely comment on progress.
“It looks like the Microsoft devs
have dipped their toes into hacking
on Linux – here the time remaining stayed at 0.0ns and the
progress stayed at 100 percent while the bandwidth
numbers slowly went to almost (but not quite) 0 b/s
over a good few seconds.
