The Mighty Buzzard

Feci omnia propter nookie

Code monkey, sysadmin, Army vet (52C), catcher of fish, taker of naps. I'm a good person not a nice one.

My political philosophy by example...

D: Guns should be banned/regulated!
Me: Go fuck yourselves.

R: Porn should be banned/regulated!
Me: Go fuck yourselves.

Hope that clears things up.

@ingelramdecoucy Honestly, it could be either in California.

@SandyofCthulhu @RealDeanCain She was born on Krypton and spent most of her adolescence there. Plenty easy to get them pierced before seeing a yellow sun.

[The Mighty Buzzard @TMBuzzard]

@ACPMain But not the ability.

@Rasterblath @drakluxa @ShamashAran @sircalebhammer You're kind of a moron, aren't you? Even all morality aside, since you're an America-hating piece of shit, the government was our employer. If you get hurt on the job in the course of doing exactly what you were supposed to be doing, the employer has to pay for it.

[The Mighty Buzzard @TMBuzzard]

@Rasterblath @drakluxa @ShamashAran @sircalebhammer I can absolutely tell you why soldiers should get compensated by the government for their injuries. Can you give me even a shitty reason ordinary blue collar work should carry the same debt?

[The Mighty Buzzard @TMBuzzard]

@Grummz Nope. I'm not hurting bad enough for something to play to give money to people who want to push an agenda.

[The Mighty Buzzard @TMBuzzard]

@Grummz I like chopping things but they did a terrible job of selling that. Looked like they were going for a Diablo-ish kinda vibe but completely failed to understand how you do that.

I came to lift one weight. I left a legend. Four times over. Against my will.

It started small. A modest weight. Then a man the size of a door walked past and roared:

"LET'S GO, BEAST!"

Beast. Me. Mid-lift. From a stranger.

A beast does not set the weight down. So I did not set the weight down. (I wanted to set the weight down.)

Then — "Get it, CHAMP." A woman this time. A second rank, conferred in passing. I bowed mid-repetition, which is far harder than it sounds.

Then — "ONE MORE, WARRIOR. You GOT this!"

Warrior. That one I earned across an entire lifetime. He handed it to me for a single rep. I could not insult it by failing.

So I did one more.

Then another. Beast. Champ. Warrior. Killer. Big guy. They would not stop naming me — so I could not stop deserving it.

My arms were gone. My spirit was on fire. I said nothing. A warrior does not announce that he can no longer feel his hands.

I racked the bar. The whole corner of the room — strangers, all of them — clapped.

For the beast. For the champ. For the warrior.

The big one slapped my shoulder. "Same time tomorrow?"

"...Yes," I said, with great and total calm, while every muscle I own filed a formal complaint.

I will be there.

A man who has been called Warrior cannot, in good conscience, skip leg day.

@drakluxa @ShamashAran @sircalebhammer Disability ain't payment for not being able to get a job, it's payment for sacrificing part of your health for your nation. If you qualify under most any condition, you're enjoying life significantly less than you would be if you were a little asshat with no patriotism.

[The Mighty Buzzard @TMBuzzard]

@Seriously_1970 @ShamashAran He probably enjoys it a hell of a lot more than he would anything a degree could get him too.

[The Mighty Buzzard @TMBuzzard]

@ShamashAran It's retarded and a whole lot of the people who work for the VA hate vets, so they're not going to help you navigate the retardation.

[The Mighty Buzzard @TMBuzzard]

@murasametech Yeah, I used to set up Icinga to monitor and alert me on disk space and a few other things but it's way more complex than necessary for my home LAN and it never fails to give me headaches. Shell scripts and cron jobs are so much easier to administer for me on home stuff.

[The Mighty Buzzard @TMBuzzard]

@japan_nobunaga If I were 15 instead of over 50, I would still want to be a ninja. Or a pirate. Or possibly Batman. They all have their merits. But I am old and fat now and mostly want to go take a nap while fishing.

[The Mighty Buzzard @TMBuzzard]

@thisplatformsu2 @LundukeJournal No, it's not. Adding new features and stability are inversely proportional; one necessarily, directly reduces the other. Now it's definitely less unstable than wayland because it's only being slowly added to instead of created, but it's not as stable as xorg.

[The Mighty Buzzard @TMBuzzard]

@FELIXF0X556 @Khaozdubz @jacknyeko @TheJoeySwoll You think having served is a zing? When talking about what's manly and what isn't? That's a special kind of buttpirate retardation. You need to stick to things you know about, Nancy. To be extra clear here, neither women nor manliness are part of your expertise.

[The Mighty Buzzard @TMBuzzard]

@thisplatformsu2 @LundukeJournal Call it whatever you like. Nobody gives a shit unless they're coding it. They just want it to work in an unsurprising way.

[The Mighty Buzzard @TMBuzzard]

@FELIXF0X556 @Khaozdubz @jacknyeko @TheJoeySwoll You think a typo is some kind of zing and you think anyone gives a rat's ass what a Friend of Dorothy thinks about manliness. Interesting. Shoo now little fairy. Float away.

[The Mighty Buzzard @TMBuzzard]

@thisplatformsu2 @LundukeJournal Excuse me, display manager.

@clovis_chitwood If you're going to print gun parts, there needs to be a reason to. They should at the very least be cooler looking than the factory parts. I mean, at least have a Skeletor or Decepticons badge on them or something.
