Of course, they say "intestines" but they mean assholes.
On one hand, this might help with survival in space. On the other hand, becoming an astronaut just became way less attractive. (In b4 Elon announces new revolutionary SpaceX technology.)

I would like to get feedback on my new start AutoCursor. AutoCursor is made for individuals that work from home and need to find a sense of worklife balance. AutoCursor keeps your computer awake even while you step away. I would like to get a few people to watch the video and provide feedback or even become a beta tester. Thanks for your thoughts in advance.

I feel like an optical mouse sat on a clock (or perhaps a mirror) would achieve a similar result.

@Zecc or, hear me out, the more sensible options of:
- Moving the mouse around with a software script
- Not doing any of that garbage to begin with. Where do you work at, prison?

I wrote such a util at a place where they were annoying like that to get the nagging bosses off my ass about not being active enough. Nevermind that I was helping other people at their computers for hours every day.

Yeah, my actual boss knew what I did for work, so he couldn't care less that I wasn't at the computer. It was other busybodies whining. I told him about the ID10T workaround I made and he thought it was great.

A pretty average workplace more dangerous than the place where managers go to great lengths to make them as safe from any safe-harm or accident as possible.

It's not about whether it's real fire. It's always been a euphemism. Gas is coward's fire.

At the very minimum, this statement's veracity is dependent on the amount of gas involved.

Some of us have more gas than others.
Petrol. What did you think I meant?

When you say “gas,” I think of literally anything describable as gaseous. You know – a gas.
But maybe that’s just because I speak English.

If you're into sniffing gasoline, you're technically more interested in it's gaseous form. So, makes sense to focus on that. Best explanation that I can come up with.

Ever tried to read the rules for cricket? Let me say that finding out how cricket balls taste is a relatively small-scale misunderstanding in the context.

This is one time I have no doubt of whom the post is reminiscent. Except it was way more than $140.
