If you’re American and you’ve been eating the food-like product labelled as “Cheese” in your supermarkets then Yes

To be fair it’s probably running on Windows.

All the servers force-restarted due to windows updates, but the update introduced an issue and now the Bing API service won’t start

Keeping shit running on Windows is always going to be a gamble

Consumers: only buy the cheapest regardless of how it’s produced, ensuring a race to the bottom

Producers: lower standards to increase production so they can sell meat for the lowest cost

Consumers when they find out what that entails: shocked pikachu face

lightnegative,

Sad for those who worked hard and repaid their loans and now get to watch as everyone else gets theirs written off

lightnegative,

So would someone who thinks North Korea is a democracy because it’s in the name, “Democratic People’s Republic of North Korea” be a Tankie?

lightnegative,

Wow, and here I was trying to set breakpoints using the devtools debugger and faffing around with sourcemaps.

Wish I knew about this 10 years ago!

lightnegative,

There’s a rule banning “self-preferencing.” That’s when platforms push their often inferior, in-house products and hide superior products made by their rivals

Wow, I can see Microsoft fighting this one tooth and nail. It’s basically their whole business model

lightnegative,

Let’s say your country was about to be invaded, your house stolen and you sent elsewhere or killed so that citizens of the invading country could occupy your house and your land instead.

And all of that not happening was hinged on the physical prowess of an old guy who’s probably been in politics for decades.

How helpless would you feel?

Based on that logic, the Christian bible is inherently leftist because it’s meant to be shared… whether you wanted it or not

lightnegative,

Tbh im incredulous that explicit sync wasnt a thing from day 1.

Like what kind of sane API have you ever used that didn’t allow you to buffer / queue up operations and then flush them all at once?

lightnegative,

Are the record profits still record after being adjusted for inflation?

Money is worth less now than it was this time last year.

Let’s say a profit of $1000 last year is equivalent to a profit of $1200 this year.

Have you made $200 more this year? Well, technically yes but it doesn’t quite have the same purchasing power as it would have if you made it last year instead

lightnegative,

We do exist but you have to really want to come here since it’s so far out of the way.

On the plus side, we don’t really have to worry about getting nuked in WW3 because we are not a strategic target

lightnegative,

I hear this all the time in my field.

“Can you just fuzzy match the records between the systems?”

lightnegative,

It just wasn’t well written. Pretty pictures can only take a mediocre story so far

lightnegative,

Why would I avoid politics on the politics platform?

lightnegative,

I turn UAC off before it nags me for the 10th time.

The only nag I want to see is the one right before it gets turned off.

I hate things that just throw up nag screens that users get desensitized to and just click through anyway. It hasn’t increased security at all.

Looking at you “do you trust the authors of the code in this workspace folder” VSCode. Yes I effing do, that’s why I opened it to begin with!

lightnegative,

Angelfire! Now there’s something I havent heard in a while

lightnegative,

This was me for years.

And then I had to write some software that needed to visualise a rotary milking platform which is a circle, divided into segments, with different parts of each segment showing different things at different times.

Oh, and since it’s rotary, the circle had to be animated and rotate in sync with the actual milking platform.

Oh and different clients had different numbers of bays in their platforms so I couldn’t hardcode anything, it had to dynamically draw the platform, animate it and respond to events like window size change.

Suffice to say I had to drag highschool geometry out from the graveyard of my brain

lightnegative,

Every time I go to buy something “Made in USA” from a hardware store, it’s measurements are all like 5/8ths of a freedom eagle.

At least the Chinese stuff uses metric, even if it’s generally less robust

lightnegative,

It doesn’t need to know the real answer to produce a confident sounding answer

lightnegative,

It only works for cultures where individuals have to sepukku if they bring shame on family.

In the USA, bringing shame upon family is considered a rite of passage so it doesn’t quite have the same effect

lightnegative,

He’s right you know.

Of course the best way to avoid parenting is to not have kids to begin with.

Failing that, the infinite video device certainly keeps them quiet for long periods

lightnegative,

I’m currently using Endeavouros (btw) but Fedora is a solid distro as well.

Used it for years until just recently when I got a new laptop and decided to give managed Arch a go

lightnegative,

That would make for a long ass movie night
