No, it's not normal. 2 deep or 3 deep on both sides would be normal.

This bit:

They would have to figure out the problem, figure out if a workaround is possible, and then apply it… all with a round-trip time of 45 hours for every communication with a probe that is flying away from us at a million miles a day.
is eerily reminiscent of an API I'm working on integrating into a client website right now... the API has so many restrictions on connections and then the dataset the site receives is so large that I can basically only attempt one run of my script a day
deadline on this job is Friday.

I reckon a little green alien script kiddy has found it and is trying to hack it.

This is absolutely fascinating.
Slightly odd question about your bathroom habits, I will spoiler it as it is about going to the loo, and some people might not want to read about that, but there will be nothing graphic

I always piss when I have a shit. I always know if I need a piss or a piss and a shit.
Sometimes though it’s just a piss and a fart.

I think that's pretty normal, the second wee is like a little finishing flourish, the chef's kiss to a satisfying shit.
A mark of respect.
This thread's turned into a load of crap..... and tuned into it as well.
Went Nandos for the first time. It's a bit overrated.

We visited one for the first time in a decade recently.
It was better than I expected, but wouldn’t be my first choice there’s a lot better options these days.

Walking down the road today and a car pulls up next to me.
"Excuse me, I'm in a bit of a hurry but there's a pigeon on the mini-roundabout"
I make a "so?" face and carry on walking.
Passing the roundabout on my way back there was a dead pigeon on the pavement.
Probably spy stuff.

But now we have to report dead pigeons so that lazy bastard Kern can come and move them to wherever it is he's supposed to put them it ought to spike a bit.
When's the next Tom Lehrer convention?
Had to look it up. But it would be a target-rich area. Clean up in bush 3!

Kern clearly looks like the kind of guy who can deal with dead pigeons. Or maybe just looked really hungry.

Yeah sorry to hear you’re having issues, Nickachu.
Sorry to hear you are leaving, Nikachu. Sending :hugs:
Well, this is a little bit terrifying:

If I read this right, it was because MaliA had been to Nando's.
I assume this is also why Facebook and Instagram have crashed, i.e. they can't cope with the volume of disbelieving posts.

Do, he’s damaged the piping in the kitchen when replacing piping into the smart meter, so Cadent have condemned the entire thing. They’ve shut her house off from the gas supply entirely. She’s in a council house, so they’ve been around and taken pictures, and because of where her meter and the pipes are they have to rip out all of her kitchen cabinets to access the pipes to locate the point of the leak. They’ve put washers in, but apparently the pipes have all been moved out of place and something has been moved and not fitted properly.
The cabinets have to come out before the gas engineers will do anything, but the council won’t move the cabinets until ‘some time next week’. Until then she’s got no hob, heating or hot water.
She phoned the supplier (‘Eon Next’ she wrote, not sure if that’s an Eon offshoot or a typo), and she keeps getting ‘cut off’.
How did they even. Appalling.
At least it's been found and contained before something disastrous happened.
There's a lot of "complain/demand to this and that person!" I want to do but "safe now and fixed soon" are the important things. Saying that with a lack of heat and cooking in a cold snap maybe looking into temporary, billable accommodation might be a good idea?

I think she was trying to find out if she could at least get partial compensation on the leaked gas that (I presume) she’s been charged for, as it’s been leaking for over two weeks (she’s largely anosmic, which runs in the family, so it took my brother being there to realise the problem). But the call kept dropping when she’d been put on hold. She’s not had any assistance from the supplier at all but I think the job has been handed over to the council to liaise with/make right.
It's bloody lucky she's not a smoker, or had a log burner, or lit a candle, or any one of a dozen things that can cause sparks or flames. I'd be onto the Ombudsman and questioning the fitter's suitability to be working

No, but 'MaliA's been to Nando's' works.
