This is brilliant - great work and great funding success!

Yeah, I know there’s a lot of flimsy assumptions behind the sentiment…

Curious question, though: is your vehicke important because of what it enables (maybe lifestyle or just a car-oriented city) or is it a status symbol or some core part of why you are (are you a driver or something?)

Its odd to me one would be so important but I’ve always ridden bikes as well as seeing them as a tool and been fortunate to live in a small city with token public transport, so I’m just on a different part of the spectrum, really…

These are amazing! Having just played through 4 recently I can hear him

And that’s why we have car insurance - you could have put everyone out of their misery by crashing into it

Wow, that’s brutal!

I had a flatmate at one time who walked past my room, sick his head in the doorway

What the hell is going on with the scale in this graph?

Please explain.

I have no idea what you’re talking about but there’s no way I’m wading through that stomach churning despair and horror again. It was an amazing story but the number of scenes that made me want to cry and scrape myself clean in the shower was far too many

Playing the long game, ay?

I’m sorry, by if they work at Starbucks, they’re not baristas

I like how this ended out, though… Well played

What are you waiting for?

Rad! I’ll keen an eye out when travelling (yeah, right…)

Is the ‘apple’ part good to eat?

Thanks! I had assumed it was all fantastic fictional fluff. Really interesting to learn there’s a grain of truth behind it

Lovely story… I’ve just found out my healthcare organisation gets its corporate branding wallpaper from an anonymous read blob storage (which I think I can get access to).

The temptation to fill this with dick pics on my last day is more than I thought. Not ready to retire yet, unfortunately!

I also hand a workmate when we were both young and this guy was a hot headed young Russian, he’d monitor the borderware firewall logs and counter hack people probing it (back in 2010…). so on his last week I was really worried about what timebombs or other traps he may have set. Turns out the guy was a complete professional (which shouldn’t have surprised me, really - he hated the management but loved the team and wouldn’t have done anything to hurt us)

That classic!

I remember seeing in town a bunch of people smoking right next to a gas main in the walkway under their building (so not huge gas pipe, I think it ‘just’ served the building). Natural selection and all that…

This is great!

I had a friend in school who would spend time at his mums work so would draw people he didn’t like and then put the drawing through the shredder. He had fun making their death noises (now I’m wondering if you can pause the feed or anything - probably not?)
