I'd be fine with doing it for the lulz, if I could think of sufficient enough lulz

The things I originally used them for was a small little linux build server slave and internal hosting environment to use as a staging ground.

But things like gitlab-ci has pretty much replaced my old Jenkins + Build Slave set-up for my private projects, and at the time my main projects were self-contained, small enough and platform-independent enough for the Pi to cover. My current main project is a bit bigger and more swarmy, and using Docker so ARM isn't a suitable staging without either complicating my build pipeline for no other reason than to use the Pis.

Basically there's now free/cheap online stuff that I use to do the stuff I used to used to do with them. It just annoys me that they're gathering dust at the moment.

Well, it wasn't today but it is worthy "WTF?" moment.

I opened TVTropes and there was an advertisement on the main page which said next (It was in Russian):
Terrible Death
Rescuers couldn't save him:

And right to the colon, there was an incredibly suspicious link to the site with co.ck.uk domain.

It just raises too many questions...

First of all, who is "him"? Second, why you use site with such domain, dear advertisers? Third, how TVTropes allowed such click-bait ad to be displayed on their friggin main page?! Fourth, why you use such click-bait title?!

Let's say it together people, creators of the ads reached new low.

My graphics card somehow... undied itself. I am not very trusting of it, so I will proably be getting a new one anyway, but it's still weird that it was supposedly deader than dead and now it's working.

Yeeeaaah, when what appears to be a blood slime oozes itself from a lady's nethers it's time to stop dreaming and wake up. You're done at that point. If an otherwise normal and fairly pleasant somnial hallucination takes that turn it's quittin' time.

I almost rolled my eyes when I was talking to a doctor and she asked my hobbies and I said videogames

and she was like "That isn't a hobby"

Which is the WEIRDEST freeken argument ever! because I tested it... Basically it is more of a "I have no respect for videogames so it isn't a hobby" thing.

Why did you answer honestly to a trick question anyway? The answer's always walking, reading, plus minus one sport.

You joke... but yes that was the correct answer xD

I jest, yes, but I do think that one must be prudent about what's disclosed in job interviews and workplace medical checkups. There might be unforeseen consequences to what you say. Things are always far less private than one would think.

I had a dream about being a slave and doing fancy acrobatic shit and fighting my way through what was basically a cyberpunk environment made of wood. Like, lots of towers and crap but made of wood and leather.

Kept getting into a fight with one dude who had an improvised rifle that used a caliber he wasn't supposed to be allowed to use, and was really goddamn big. Never actually beat him by the time I woke up though I'd beaten down, escaped from, or killed most of the rest of the slavers.

The banter was maybe the weirdest part. At one point it was just 'two parts yellow' 'one part blonde' and then I smashed my forehead into his face. So....?

I really didn't like that psychiatrist anyhow... well as a psychiatrist

Then again I never like anyone I am open with that treats me like I am being dishonest.

Someone famous will die in the next five days. 2016 is not letting us go so easy.
