Kind of funny how "Indian" is an American brand, but the actual big brand from India that sells in the US is Royal Enfield. :blobfoxthink:

Anyone wonder if the continued use of tetraethyl lead over the Twentieth Century was at least partially because those in control wanted to stunt people's intelligence with lead poisoning so they'd be easier to control? :blobfox0_0:

In a +1 score to 's great back-compatibility, I've had a script called from procmail that's been 100% reliable for the past 15 years maintaining my email, over many years of regular Perl updates.

A month ago it broke - because procmail. https://github.com/BuGlessRB/procmail/issues/5

But the perl itself still runs absolutely fine.

purple,
@purple@nya.social avatar

@leonerd the only personal application i've written to make it to version 1.0 and see distribution was written in perl. i picked perl because i know i won't have to spend the rest of my life keeping track of dependencies.

folks don't realize perl is the duct tape holding the internet together.

In a minor quandary here. I want lower clip-ons/handlebars on my Ninja 1000SX so I can engage my core more (the pegs are don't need to be moved), but the shop I talked to said that there aren't many options for doing so because the bars can't be lowered much before hitting the bike's gas tank.

I don't want to trade it for a different one, though, because that would involve a lot of financial mess and I'd have to get new luggage racks so my top and side cases would fit on whatever bike I'd end up with.

purple,
@purple@nya.social avatar

@tk i've yet to find a competent shop that can actually give useful suggestions for needed mods.

want to mount a flag pole? get fucked 💢

look around more, there's gotta be options for Ninjas..

@tk bash the tank in to make room 💯

Anyway, what I am doing is really cursed. There are not libraries for doing WebRTC DataChannel in Elixir/Erlang. But I want to rewrite my game server in Elixir. So I am using a library that lets you wrap a node.js application in a genserver and interface with Elixir.

@Moon @piggo to save you some effort, ... spoiler alert... you're about to go down the rabbit hole of reinventing SCTP.
