Header files aren’t part of the C++ language at all.

The journalist used “ye”?

brisk,

It was in Danish though.

In retrospect that should have been obvious from context

I would love to play theatre of the mind, but my table collectively has the spatial awareness of a barnacle.

What are Some Good, Recent, and Available Dumb Cars?

I have a 2010 Toyota Corolla. She’s been my trusty steed for the last 14 years and is in good working order. I recognize she won’t last forever, and if, god forbid (mostly for her) I get in an accident, I will need to get a new car. So what dumb cars do you drive, and what would you replace them with?

brisk,

That report is based on reading privacy policies, it doesn’t actually assess what cars / brands actually do or are capable of

The inquest heard that due to shortages, only Officer B took a body camera that day, but did not wear it for any of the searches he conducted. He told the inquest his priority was “to get out of the car quickly due to the way Bradley was walking”.

If we ever want to be able to have a just police force, this sort of thing needs to be considered sufficient evidence of intent to commit a crime. Either you have a body camera on, or you are a civilian, not a cop

The whole the article is incredibly damning; an illegal stop, a “proactive policing” policy which can so obviously only ever lead to injustice, violation of the right to walk away, targeting without sufficient evidence, police lying about callouts on the radio

Any MNT Reform laptop owner out there for a few questions?

I have a terrible el-cheapo 14" HP laptop that I bought from a big-box store a few years ago as an emergency replacement for a laptop that died on me on the road while visiting a customer. I literally went to the store 5 minutes before it closed, bought any laptop they had, loaded Linux on it at the hotel and transferred my...

You might want to consider crossposting to !opensource for more eyes

brisk,

You have to do that to be a “Chartered Engineer”, “Professional Engineer” etc. Some states require you to have some kind of registration to practice in some roles.

“Engineer” remains an unprotected term in all states and territories as far as I know but I could be wrong. It’s definitely unprotected federally.

This meme does meat pies dirty (unless “mincemeat pie” is one of those horribly deceptive terms like “mince pie”)

brisk,

Then I take it back. I have never been as disappointed as the first time I was offered a “mince” pie

brisk,

Where I’m from “mince pie” is dried fruit and spices, while “mince” is equivalent to the US ground beef (or less commonly other meats), and a “meat pie” is made from beef mince.

It made for frustrating Christmasses as a child because mini meat pies (“party pies”) are delicious and available at every other celebration.

Who could have ever guessed that naming different software the same thing would ever come back to bite them

brisk,

Oh man I thought I understood the whole joke but missed the “cell wall” pun

brisk,

Will we ever stop referring to the Web as “the Internet”?

Provided you live in a country that cares about transparency.

My meter has a single LED and a propietary optical connection that claims to alarm the supplier if used.

brisk,

Plus you turn it on/off by clacking the eyes together.

This took me straight from disinterested to sold

Yep, I’ve got one of those going already! I’m currently working on improving the power consumption so I can run it off a LiFePO4 without recharging every week.

brisk,

I’ll throw in, YouTube channels are all fully functional RSS feeds, and you don’t need to interact with YouTube at all to get your subscriptions.

brisk,

They’ve been listed as out of stock for months

brisk,

I wish it was, I need a new phone and this one was top of my list.

brisk,

Which nut butter do you prefer?

brisk,

I haven’t played with this too much, but I’m reasonably confident you only need an X11 and a Wayland implementation. Mplayer / mpv can play on “rootwin” on X11. For Wayland I think it’s a layer.

brisk,

This reads like it was written by an LLM

brisk,

I would argue our society disproportionately economically rewards TE fields and S&M (no not like that) get lip service because if they didn’t get a mention it would be far too obvious how disconnected economic value is from societal value
