Farmer Crack-rear end posted:i'm not slamming on librarians or studying to be a librarian, what i'm slamming on is someone getting irl mad that we wouldn't let kids go to wikipedia on school computers It is quite useful to students though- nobody should be doing research on wikipedia but it isn't a bad first place to go for expanded background information. Like if a student were writing a book report on something from the Age of Sail it'd be a pretty good source for them to go to to try to make sense of all the loving crazy sailing terms in a short amount of time. Wikipedia is pretty terrible but there really isn't a legitimate reason to be blocking it on a network being used for educational purposes.

In 2009, the new CIO of Microsoft, Tony Scott, argued that the phrase "dogfooding" was unappealing and should be replaced by "icecreaming", with the aim of developing products as "ice cream that our customers want to consume."

Ate some dog ice cream over the weekend, peanut butter and cheese flavored. While I did detect some peanut butter-ish flavor, that poo poo was nasty. Absolutely no attempt to make it palatable for humans

Q: Is this called Kinectimals, Kinectimals Gold or Kinectimals Now with Bears? A: Kinectimals Gold is an internal code name only that signifies that this is an extended release of the original Kinectimals game. The legal title of this game is still Kinectimals. However, due to legal reasons and in an effort to avoid confusion with consumers we are differentiating this sku internally and in retailer systems by referring to it as Kinectimals Now with Bears! and messaging it as the Kinectimals Extended Release with Bears. This is not a subtitle but simply call out text.
