I have no idea where to put this, so I'll put it here I guess. So, went to GitLab's site, this shows on the bottom:
Ok, fair enough wonder if I can get more data...
Oh, cool.
Uh-huh...

So it's "Jim, please can you arrange it for me to swim with a dolphin". Sounds OK-ish for me?
It's not the "fix" part. It's the "it" part.
In your example, "to swim with a dolphin" replaces "it". Therefore, when you give the detail of "it", you no longer need to include "it".
Your sentence becomes, "Jim, please can you fix for me to swim with a dolphin."
It sounds more natural to me with "it" included. "Jim, please can you fix it for me to swim with a dolphin."
It sounds most natural to me without "fix" or "it".
"Jim, can you please
arrangemake a way for me to swim with a dolphin?"It's quite possibly a phrasing from Leeds, which was where Jimmy Savile was from; I grew up in that conurbation and it doesn't sound odd to me at all. Alas, the story about him being a pedo broke before the city had finished fund raising for putting up a memorial statue to him…

@boomzilla I've been to Finnland two weeks ago and the huge selection they have of that stuff reminded me of Alex
bitchingcomplainingpraising on the front page how much he got sent of it. Never followed through reading his tasting experiments, guess I should.I got some myself filled with lemon, tasted great, but not something I'd eat every day.

Is tinnitus on that list?
Ugh. One page per thing, all the better to serve you adverts, my child...
To save everyone else the hassle:
- “Do you read braille?”
- “Oh you’re deaf? IT’S…VERY….NICE…TO…MEET YOU! HOW ARE YOU?!”
- “I’ll pray for you”
- “Teach me something dirty in sign language!”
- “You inspired me to learn sign language”
- “Why do you speak funny?”
- “You can drive? But what about ambulances?”
- “My neighbor’s brother is deaf — you two would make a cute couple!”
- “You’re really reading my lips? Like…right now?”
- “If you’re deaf, how are you speaking?”
- “Sign language is so beautiful”
- “I don’t know how you do it, I would kill myself"
- “I’d rather be blind than be deaf”
- “How do you live without music?”
- “Can you read and write?”
- “Is it true what they say about deaf girls in bed?”
-
@pjh said in The Official Funny Stuff Thread™:
“I’ll pray for you”
If someone says that to me my response will probably be something like "Thanks, I wasn't going to do it anyway."

except for the terrible beet ketchup they had
They do know that tomatoes are fruit, right?
Only botanically, though. Culinarily, they are vegetables.
Not that it makes any difference for their vegan consumption approval qualifications.

Before they were out of earshot they were passed by third guy who is going horizontally. "Cannons? Either of you know anything about circus cannons?"
Being shot out of a cannon into a net doesn't impress me. I want to see someone get shot out of a cannon and land in a smaller cannon.

@ben_lubar not very useful 1/10 would not recommend.
It does say "iPhone" instead of "Android" or even just "smartphone".

But the concept is the same. 1-5% usage doesn't say much about your social media addiction.

I may or may not be intentionally ignoring the fact that Olive Garden is using up significant battery, and that the insinuation is that it is a social media app (along with Gmail, Spotify, and 911 Museum).

It took significant planning to set up that joke, since Olive Garden used over 90% of the battery for the last WEEK.

You are kidding arent you ?
Are you saying that this linux can run on a computer without windows underneath it, at all ? As in, without a boot disk, without any drivers, and without any services ?
That sounds preposterous to me.
If it were true (and I doubt it), then companies would be selling computers without a windows. This clearly is not happening, so there must be some error in your calculations. I hope you realise that windows is more than just Office ? Its a whole system that runs the computer from start to finish, and that is a very difficult thing to acheive. A lot of people dont realise this.
Microsoft just spent $9 billion and many years to create Vista, so it does not sound reasonable that some new alternative could just snap into existence overnight like that. It would take billions of dollars and a massive effort to achieve. IBM tried, and spent a huge amount of money developing OS/2 but could never keep up with Windows. Apple tried to create their own system for years, but finally gave up recently and moved to Intel and Microsoft.
Its just not possible that a freeware like the Linux could be extended to the point where it runs the entire computer fron start to finish, without using some of the more critical parts of windows. Not possible.
I think you need to re-examine your assumptions.
