It IS fair, and I started thinking, 'taxidermy', but yes, I think the response would be 'get stuffed'

If OG works quickly, he could use them as templates for 3D printing of a robin.

I got that one straight away, but let it go - pity I can't get the CCC's at all

Keep them in your car. Then when someone annoys you while driving, you can really flip them the bird...

No way! Pooh would be most upset.

Now honestly, if the cancellation also means that those horrid TV binges would also be cancelled I'd call it a great deal, indeed.
I wouldn't really miss the short-term (totally insincere) pleasantries from people who'd step over your if you fell down in front of them (&etc.).
OK - I'll be a bit positive: how about if everyone takes that pretense of brotherly love they reserve for the latter half of December and spread it thinly throughout the year - you know - actually make the world a little nicer. Furthermore, if it's all year round, it's not necessary to consider it insincere and contrived - just an improvement in life.
Baaaah !

We have spiders native to Britain that are certainly not that!

My next door neighbour was off work for three months a year ago when she was bitten by a spider. In Wales! (A "False Widow", they think).

That's spiders for you - their PR is obviously better than the reality!

xkcd OTD: Scientist Tech Help[^]
So ... the Alt Text references a tool to do that: convert a chart image to data plots, called WebPlotDigitizer
So of course I have to google it, because he can be quite subtle in his jokes, can Randal.
Aaaaaand ... it's a real thing: WebPlotDigitizer - Extract data from plots, images, and maps[^], and it's free, it's open source, and ... it's shown up a bug in Codeproject graphing.
Other than that, it works, and pretty damn well!
But I hate it when he does that ... I'm sure I'll spend entirely too much time playing with it!

Hmmm,
Guess they got it wrong[^]. The CCC this morning got me looking at some of the old tulip driver source code[^]. Looks like for the past 16 years nobody tested the tulip driver with Jumbo frames[^]. A few months ago this patch[^] appeared. Looks like with a specially crafted jumbo frame you can have some marginal control over the buffer length passed to netdev_alloc_skb(). But it gets even better with the comparison of unsigned integer len with signed rx_copybreak .
There is a similar bug[^] on the TX side. This patch seems to have been ignored or rejected and the bug still exists in mainline kernel.
I guess millions of eyes doesn't help much if 99.99% don't understand what they are looking at.
Best Wishes,
-David Delaune
