Fuck it the rest of you are all called Barry Bee Benson

[-] don@lemm.ee 6 points 5 months ago

I second this, and it’s now irrevocably ratified.

[-] Rusty@lemmy.ca 3 points 5 months ago

Thank Bejesus, we solved that problem

[-] Empricorn@feddit.nl 4 points 5 months ago

Beevis, ffs! I mean, it was right there.

Right. Beehave!

No, my bee son is also named Bort

[-] Empricorn@feddit.nl 5 points 5 months ago

Beers, beets, Beetlestar Galactica.

Surely that’s what UUIDs are for

[-] RGB3x3@lemmy.world 35 points 5 months ago

I love you b011c1ad-b091-42d4-bc2e-a6c41c8117dc

[-] javasux@lemmy.world 11 points 5 months ago

of course it starts with a B

I always wonder, in the multiverse are these unique? Like are GUIDs unique on other planets?

[-] Maalus@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

No, there is a very very veeeery tiny chance of them not being unique. But it is so incredibly small, it doesn't matter at all. Unless you f-up the way you generate them, you are fine.

[-] jaybone@lemmy.world 0 points 5 months ago

I’m kind of just joking about why they have a UUID vs a GUID.

If they'd spelled their band name correctly then the first syllable would've been 🐝

[-] creditCrazy@lemmy.world 6 points 5 months ago

Nah the hardest part of keeping bees is dealing with your neighbor who keeps Japanese murder hornets

Too bad there wasn't a clan of elves named with B names, there'd be a few hives worth of names in the Silmarillion

[-] PapaStevesy@midwest.social 4 points 5 months ago

Nah, remembering all the names is way harder. Not to mention distinguishing the individual bees...

[-] emptyother@programming.dev 2 points 5 months ago

Easy, you just name them after whatevers distinguish that bee. Like if the bee only can see on four of his five eyes, you naturally call him Foureye.

Susan Bee Anthony, Susan Bee Anthony II, Susan Bee Anthony III, Susan Bee Anthony IV, ..., I could go on but I would not want my fingers to get sore and tired.

[-] otter@lemmy.ca 2 points 5 months ago

[-] Geldaran@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

Nah, the puns make the names easy...

[-] recklessengagement@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

I feel similar about gardening

[-] Sam_Bass@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

Less problem coming up withem than it would be remembering them all

[-] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago

Hiving them little "Hi, my name is..." tags helps a lot.
