very satisfying to send a tumblr post to my wife i thought was neat and then see that zie reblogged it

@wallhackio at least in C++23 it returns a prvalue, which can be implicitly converted to an xvalue. although, hmm, an xvalue is only a glvalue, not an lvalue (which the assignment operator requires) so that doesn't seem to explain it. alas idk

@wallhackio it's just outputting the address of a temporary object? and then a newline? why wouldn't it compile? there's not even any UB here i think (since you never dereference the resulting pointer)

@wallhackio which will become awkward when @Lady posts another one

@Lady @wallhackio i opted to answer one with the "toki pona li pona" answer and one with the "toki pona li ike" answer

@Lady you should cosplay Rika sometime. seems like it'd suit you

@wallhackio i haven't heard it but i think it's called Same Love?

@wallhackio i think there’s a macklemore song about this.

i think if my wife and i had a friend who knew sport and another teammate to cover some other weakness of ours and also we lived in the UK and also eggheads was still on the air we could have a okay shot at winning eggheads

@Satsuma @wallhackio @Lady @aescling empecé a decir que la secuencia de humanidades obligatoria que cursaba no me sirve para nada más que saber las respuestas de programas de quiz. pero me acordé de que el leer de las memorias de nabokov me dio una desconfianza fuerte de escritores buenes. también aprendí que Aquinas no tenía buena lógica. y que algunos hombres str8 cogen a otros hombres. resulta que me quedan muchos conocimientos útiles de esos cursos.

the thing is that there are a lot of men out there who can write really well, except they can't quite imagine what it's like to fully see women as people. so. pretty frustrating reading them when even their female characters don't actually recognize other women as people.

eggheads is a rather satisfactory quiz show

i'm not really sure i buy A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night being a western.

one of the many things to look forward to when we finally overcome sexism is that men will finally learn to write

no image description, repost 

@aescling yup that's me and my wife. how'd you get that picture

what is the highest timer on a microwave or the like you would use the +30 seconds button repeatedly for?

@aschmitz weirdly enough kinda midway between despite being younger than both.
