In order to prevent the | creatures from clogging the tubes, Google uses teleportation to | move them between endpoints on the network. A hidden feature in | Chrome's task manager allows users to see the total number of | goats that are actively being teleported for each running browser | tab. In Chrome's task manager, right-click the task table--check | the "Goats Teleported" item in the context menu. | ArekDymalski wrote: | Is this a simple, absurdist joke, some obscure reference, | sophisticsted play on words or an elaborate innuendo? ___________________________________________________________________ (page generated 2022-10-21 23:00 UTC)
