An ex-DOGE staffer known as “Big Balls” could end up receiving the highest civilian honor in the United States, placing him in the company of luminaries such as Rosa Parks, Martin Luther King Jr. and Mother Teresa.

Somehow the dumbest timeline just upped the ante

If we do live in a simulation, can I be taken out by a corrupt memory allocation, please?

Earth.exe is causing excessive crashes, please save your work and restart.

I knew it was somehow windows fault. We should obviously be running Debian.

Sometimes I like to imagine that we are in a reincarnation simulation and by the laws of quantum mechanics even if I was reborn exactly the same to relive this life again or even if the universe was started over, it would be completely different even if all variables where exactly the same. It gives me a strange hope.

Best we can do is unplug it.
Then plug it back in again.
