I did get a spam comment for escort services, but it's mostly hookahs

Are hookahs relevant to your interests, or is it just... Suddenly hookahbots?

Heiterverzweiflung. Not a legit German word so much as something a friend and I made up in German class once. "Carefree despair". When life is so fucked that you can't stop laughing.

hookahs do sound very close to hookers, so maybe the robots got confused

Somebody designing the spambot meant to send emails about prostitutes, but they misspelled "hooker". Then when they looked up related keywords in a language they don't understand, they got the results we now see.

... i choose to assume, anyway

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

For some reason I have zits/acne/whatever you call it (pimples that need squeezing) over my arms, which my mum says never happens.

It's probably relevant that my server is hosted in Colorado.

I get it too. My mom says not to pop/squeeze/get rid of them like a zit because "they're not really zits and something bad could happen".
Which I guess is the same thing.

I've also gotten it on my hand, and a couple occasionally on my legs.

We also had some ninja weapons donated. A pair of sai, a nunchaku, and one of those little hand scythe things, I forget the name of them. All were made of metal(the nunchaku was padded, but the chain was steel), though the scythe was not sharp, nor where the prongs of the sai. We could not legally sell them, so we tossed them in the garbage.
Just going to say here that sai are supposed to be blunt. They're truncheons, not daggers.

On that topic, I wonder about the legality or lack thereof of selling them, as you say. Back when I practiced kobujutsu, I just one day walked into a sporting goods store and bought some facsimile ninja weapons, no questions asked. The bladed ones were blunt, of course, but they were in a state where I could have sharpened them if I really wanted to.

Just popping in to say that proper procedure for acne is to wash more often or more thoroughly, not to pop 'em when they appear. If you're not careful you can end up with some really nasty pockmark scars that'll be with you for the rest of your life, barring plastic surgery.

This is not exactly a terrified WTF, but more a confused WTF.

Yesterday, I tried to download 42.03 on a friend's PC, and bay12games.com gave me a timeout. isup.me said it was up just fine, and so did everyone on the forums. The forums and dffd.bay12games.com worked just fine, but bay12games.com or any subdirectory did not respond. (A funny side effect of this was that Toady's forum avatar did not load.) I tried rebooting my PC, switching browsers, clearing cache, and even going through the firewall rules but to no avail.

And right now, it's working again.

The best way to demonstrate it to him is take a save of 40 year old fortress with 150 dwarves in it on a good sized embark with a volcano that just breached the circus and install it on his gaming rig and watch it bring his rig to its knees.

Today is +3 C. Tomorrow the sinoptics promise us +7 C. In late December. In Moscow.

The weather sure is heating up around here.

Tomorrow Australia is hitting 40 degrees in the mercury. I love having a pool at my house.

That's not surprising, though. Australia is a place where it's hot in winter, cold in summer, and people are walking upside-down, though I'm pretty sure the last one is a joke.

Not never, just not often compared to, say, the face. It's just a very localized skin infection.
