Yeah, I don't bash them or anything, their choice to use a subscription service. It works for a lot of people. If it's someone I'm pretty close to, I can turn a Netflix or a Spotify recommendation into a bit of a joke.
You realise that beliefs are a shifting scale, right? Not everybody with beliefs right of center are alt-right Nazis. I can't stand those people either.
I used to be similar to you, until I met people with a whole host of opinions. I wish you well.
It's pure projection. They put up a wall thinking that they're the ones choosing, but they're actually the ones that aren't attractive to others because of the black-and-white way they see the world.
Yeah, that's a fair point about assumption, was a bit silly of me. I'm responding to a few people of the same stance as you so it all kind of blurs into one. Kbin needs some default profile pic rather than a black square.
I've personally experienced a universal healthcare system and its effects. It killed a family member and almost killed me.
Sorry for that guy's experiences, but the sort of things he went through are systems and programmes you'd get in most governments throughout the whole political landscape.
In the UK where there's universal healthcare, we had Dr. Harold Shipman who murdered a lot, and a current court case with Lucy Letby who killed 8 newborns. Malpractice happens in every system regardless of how it's funded.
Probably not the place for a discussion about healthcare systems on a meme shitpost thread, but I do think there's better alternatives to universal healthcare where standards usually drop for everybody. Obviously, there's some godawful private systems too, just look at America.
Bash-like scripting has become ubiquitous in operating systems, and it makes me wonder about its widespread adoption despite lacking certain programming conveniences found in other languages. While it may not be the ideal choice for large-scale software development, the bash shell possesses unique features that make it...
I wouldn't use the word "stuck", Bash is a result of over 50 years of technological advancement and experience. It works on servers, remotely, is lean and powerful. It's not that user friendly, because it doesn't need to be.
ZSH and Fish are available on *nix systems for a little bit more sugar. I personally don't use raw Bash because I just love what ZSH can do, but I love writing Bash scripts.
I recently bought a new printer, and getting something like an HP set up on Linux was a heart-breaking experience.
It'd be really nice to have a Kickstarter for an "open-source" printer, where cartridge standards can be produced and you can buy them and use them freely.
Visiting my terminally ill father in hospital after he had a fall. I asked him what that huge bruise on his neck was, if it was from the fall.
"No, it's the cancer." Was the thing he said, and I'll never forget it. Crazy. Turns out the tumour was cutting off blood flow to his brain and causing him to pass out. He died a month later. Almost a year to that day now.
I can wear a dress to work and nobody criticizes me. I’d be really sad if I had to wear pants all the time, they’re just not as comfortable. Let’s normalize pretty dresses for dudes!
And I feel sorry for people who think it's okay to air these thoughts about other people in public. Strange. Stop including me and other guys in your obvious autogynephilia fetish.
Their software is a nightmare it No Longer Works. It just redirects you to web pages. I just want to remove the hotkeys but guess I’ll just snap the keyboard in half
Razer are pretty awful. Their hardware seems to come from Factory A (the units that 12 year old tech reviewers seem to get stock from) and Factory B (the units that only I seem to have gotten stock from). I had a Razer Kraken Pro headset and it was so tight it gave me an ear infection. I used to stretch it over my ATX tower every night (and I mean, it felt like it was going to break the headset). But it still never loosened. Ended up returning it.
I then bought a mouse from them and it died within 3 months, lights would just flash. Oh, and I'm a Linux user so fuck me for wanting software.
I think another huge part of a guaranteed loss is that the Tories have always been "the party of the homeowner", yet good luck with that considering today's interest rates on mortgages.

How do you deal with people who use subscriptions?
"Look it up on Netflix" is the phrase everybody's heard, how do you deal with that?...
People who prefer light theme over dark/night theme.. Why?
Saves your battery. Easy on eyes. Dark theme is just nicer, what am I missing?

Why are we stuck with bash programming language in the shell?

Expected: I cancelled our subscription with HP and they blocked us from being able to use the rest of the ink in our cartridge. (younsfw.com)
