Yeah, a billion meters of patch cables here, a half a billion there...
the stuff really adds up... especially the cables with one plastic prong broken off...
Seriously, in the age of Gigabit Ethernet we gotta depend on little plastic tabs to maintain a connection?

From TFA:
"The Cat5e and Cat6 installed in just the last 15 years now exceeds an estimated 70 billion meters of cabling, which is more than 10 trips to Pluto,”

New hardware sure, new cable, not feasible...

Here is a different take on the story:

Well, now you're forcing me to post a Monty Python link:

They may get some teriyaki flavor spliced in...

Yes, you go find some squirrels and take their nuts, except for selected docile breeding stock.
Then you teach the now well behaved squirrels to gather and or produce whatever it is you want or need.
Maybe hit the town once in a while to get your tentacles wet doing some probing on the townies...
Being technologically advanced does not imply being kind, compassionate, empathetic or in any way moral.
The fact that they got off their hunk of rock implies they are willing to struggle and sacrifice.

And often sacrifice is easiest when you make someone else do it...

Traveling 16 light years to catch some squirrels, pretty expensive.
Traveling 16 light years to set up a self sustaining squirrel farm, priceless...

I was thinking the same thing, "shoot first and don't bother asking questions, ever..."

So, doing a quick screen grab from your favorite porn site may end up in a quarterly report in addition to being the intended wallpaper file...
Hilarity ensues!
Also, a possible new application for the term "bottom line"...
Oh, Bonus Points if you can get all the members of the board to twist their heads sideways in unison.

Because some trees deserve to die. They killed Harambe. Even through it's the current year.

I don't know about the ACME verification protocol, but stay far away from their rocket powered roller skates...
Wile E. Coyote, SG, sss. (Super Genius, still smoldering somewhat)

If you roll a compound fraction is that "percentile dysfunction"?

Dammit, now I got something else to binge watch!
Thx. :)

I'm thinking that's a "browsing history" that needs clearing before Laura gets home...
Also, are some parts of Anita dishwasher safe?

Because after Google perfects this system, they will move on to other ready to eat foods until they have a perfect way to deliver food almost anywhere...
at that point the whole thing will be scrapped...
