Lauren Weinstein@davidgerard When I hear "clockwork mouse" I instantly think of the Hugi/Russell amazing 1941 story "The Mechanical Mice" about a nightmarish mechanical AI.
The Orange Theme@davidgerard "I'm the author of libmath, used for all the math in every computer, and I have started to talk to God directly in my web browser."
Arcane Roops@theorangetheme @[email protected] Fella has obviously never used my computer. Handy as libmath is, it won't run on my box :-)
pedestrian cyclist@davidgerard Same, but the dependency is a project some 14 year old kid runs, and the kid just got kidnapped by ICE and thrown in an Ecuadorian prison camp.

Tubemeister@davidgerard Clockwork mouse reminds me of that Doctor Who episode, madame de pompadour. That combination of really kind of clever persistent stupidity.
