Wednesday WTF #3: moo!
This one isn’t really a surprise to me, but I couldn’t really find anything better. Someone posted this nearly two year old unresolved Ubuntu bug to digg.
The bug filer complains that the current cow displayed when someone types apt-get moo does not look like an actual cow. The following is output from my terminal:
bboe@sybok:~$ apt-get moo
(__)
(oo)
/------\/
/ | ||
* /\---/\
~~ ~~
...."Have you mooed today?"...
The following is what the cow would look like if today’s patch is accepted:
(__)
_______~(..)~
,----\(oo)
/|____|,'
* /"\ /\
...."Have you mooed today?"...
Oh and the new version is a super cow, as can be seen with the cape it is wearing. Haha, wtf? I just love the way open source software works.

I am not quite sure those are supposed to be utters. I think they’re balls, and thus the horns are suitable. I guess then it should more technically be called a bull.
I think you can find something on Google’s job site, unfortunately there is nothing that closely matches the job description you are looking for.

I’m not really sure what some of those words up there mean, but from looking at the pictures, I like the cow with today’s patch best. Especially the cape. But can a cow have udders and horns? Because cow number two definitely has horns and ears and udders, whereas cow number one has horns and no udders and no udders.
Are you sure there are no jobs at Google for old lady lawyers with above-average haircuts? As you can tell, I really need something to do.
