i thought void* is for generics in C

[–] [email protected] 36 points 3 days ago

I just dump everything to /dev/null

The abyss is the ocean; the void is space.

If you scream into the abyss, you'll get water in your lungs and drown.

If you stare into the void, you'll just see stars and stuff (as opposed to staring into the abyss, which is mysterious and unsettling because you actually can't see through it very far).

Be careful, if you scream into the abyss long enough, it will scream back.

"STOP SCREAMING AT ME!"

Should have considered that before they installed it in my self esteem.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Ah damn. You must’ve gotten the wrong version. Sorry about that but the quick fix is to try to override it when thinking about it so yea…

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I'm running the "terminally online" version and when I try thinking about it my kernel panics and then starts requesting me to turn off critical system processes. Is there a tech support number I can not call to not fix this issue I'm unwilling to face, making it worse? Or idk... somewhere I can scream into without being told not to, due to insurance coverage issues?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago

You need the Void DLC as that would cover the liability issues with your abyss, unfortunately it sometimes gets full, leading to long periods of weeping during happy moments.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 3 days ago (3 children)

Look, I'm a busy man. I don't have time to stare into an abyss, then scream into a void. I need something universal.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Might I suggest jerking into the vacuum?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 days ago

Well I guess that depends on your goals, doesn't it?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago

If you don't have time, make time.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago

Try new "Hole". Scream, stare, jork, or shit. Anything is possible with "Hole". Certified organic and biodegradable.

New "Hole"!

WRONG

null is to scream at:

echo "aaaaaaahh!!!!" >/dev/null

random is to stare at

cat /dev/random

or if you just wanna think about it a little bit:

head /dev/random

Abyss = what you follow Illidan into

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Misunderstood instructions, and abyss is now screaming into me. Anybody help?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Well, abyss certainly has the spirit but the technique seems off. Try gently guiding abyss with clear, direct instructions, like "lower" or "mas lengua", to help them improve. Lovemaking, like all relationships, is all about communication.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

I'm just screaming at the abyss for staring back. Rude.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 3 days ago (1 children)

If we scream into the void, how will we hear it when it calls?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 days ago

Oh, you will notice the call of the void, don't worry about that.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (2 children)

Be wary of subscribing to the void too. I cancelled a long time ago, but for some reason they keep calling.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 days ago

"We've been trying to reach you about your extended void..."

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 days ago

That's the thing about voids, always room for more.

[–] 21Cabbage 6 points 3 days ago (4 children)

What happens if I stare into the void?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 days ago (1 children)

The void is shy. Don't make it uncomfortable.

[–] 21Cabbage 3 points 2 days ago

staring harder.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

You can set up automatic withdrawal from your checking account.

[–] 21Cabbage 2 points 2 days ago

I'd prefer manual withdrawal from my 'very much not checking it' account.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 days ago
[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 days ago

Not much but people will look at you funny.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

If you scream into the abyss, the abyss screams back: "STFU!"

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago

If I piss into a sinkhole in the woods, does a bear give a shit?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago
[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 days ago

Yeah sure I stare into the abyss but I definitely try to fill my void with alcohol.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago

Now my cat is deaf. Ty
