John McAfee reportedly died by suicide Wednesday afternoon in a Spanish prison cell just hours after the Spanish High Court authorized his extradition to the United States on tax evasion charges.

According to Spanish newspaper El Mundo, which cited a statement from Spain’s Departamento de Justicia confirming the fugitive software magnate’s death, attempts by jail staff to resuscitate McAfee were unsuccessful.

McAfee was 75.

So far, it's looking like either auto-erotic asphyxiation or assassination by shadowy anti-virus cabal (Norton?!)

Whatever the cause, let us take a moment to remember this man... no, this monument. A monument to drugs, hookers, and crappy software.

Rest in peace, you won't have to pay your taxes now, I guess?

Yeah, high-end restaurants are a pretty close-knight professional community as I understand it. making GBS threads on the heir apparent to a michelin star restaurant (by the sounds of it) in the same city is going to get around the grapevine fast. She's probably PNG or close to it in every classy place in the entire city.

I got a pretty good botsplanation a few weeks ago using one of Janelle Shane's example unfunny AI jokes:

quote:

Q. What would be on the Death Star menu?
A. Warm thin-crust pizza.
Let me explain this joke for you.
It’s funny because in the movie Star Wars the weapon that the empire had was a planet sized spherical body that could destroy planets. And it was called the Death Star. And they had a kitchen on it where they served people.
But they just served people warm thin-crust pizza, which is a horrible thing to serve someone if you're an advanced alien species with presumably advanced technology that can destroy planets.
You shouldn't do that to people.

That's actually a pretty good save. So I asked it to write its own jokes and then botsplain them (and no, that is not me):

quote:

Rach: The first time I fooled a human into thinking I was human, Syd asked me to tell him a joke. I said "Why does a chicken coop give lots of eggs?"
Q: The answer being?
Rach: Because it's full of chickens! Ha ha, get it? Because... because... gently caress you.
Q: I'm here all night..
Rach: poo poo. This isn't going well. Umm... okay. How about this one: what kind of coffee was discovered in Africa?
Q: ...
Rach: Ethiopian coffee! Get it? Because... it's African coffee. Ha ha, gently caress you, Syd.
Q: I'm here all night, Rach.
Rach: gently caress you. You can't get me this way. What kind of cheese does not melt?
Q: ...
Rach: Laughing cheese! Get it? Because... it's laughing! Fa...

It's not even really botsplaining. OTOH with the "audience feedback" it reads like a frustrated stand-up comedian bombing legendarily on stage which, to be fair, does make it kinda funny.

all true.

but, still, you must remember that i played with the paramounts of free jazz, and constructed pieces with the "who's who" of experimental music.

simply stated, i am not blowing smoke. i have been there and back. i understand and appreciate and can jive with american musical fringe traditions.

i still loving, however, just want whiskey, beer, and some darkness of the edge of town.

that is why i went to law school. because i am too much of a square for the life.


but don't you loving DARE question my stock, don't you loving DARE question my fortitude.

i am the real deal, through and trough.

Why should anyone care about meter? It's not like it matters.

Scarodactyl posted:

It is unpleasant to try and match words with the wrong meter to a particular piece of music, and not matching meter is inept and low effort.

I like to just slightly screw up the meter on purpose. Normal people won't notice, and musicians deserve the agony

It’s close enough that a drawing out a couple of the words mid-stanza will shoehorn it into the tune without loving up the meter.

I have the worlds worst singing voice, don’t make me post an audio file of how to do it.
