metaStatic,

Thank god they're focusing on the real issues

metaStatic,

Windows running on a VM under linux runs faster than windows on bare metal ...

metaStatic,

it's not a drop in replacement and anyone looking for one will be disappointed by literally anything available.

You're learning an entirely new operating system, don't think of it as an upgrade, this is a time sink. You'll be under the hood more than on the road for the foreseeable future, but what's the alternative?

metaStatic,

the best jokes have a kernel of truth.

The VM is optimised for the OS, the OS is usually a fresh install with just that 1 program you need to use instead of you're entire life scattered across the desktop, it can be a snapshot of the system in an optimal state right after running an unfuck windows script that removes default system malware which doesn't let it reinstall, it has less system resources to deal with for the simple fact it can't use them all at the same time as the base OS.

metaStatic,

it is my contention that you could eat any random items form the perimeter of the store and be healthier than anyone that buys items from the health food aisle.

Food is an ingredient, it shouldn't have ingredients

metaStatic,

fuck, how do I keep forgetting that one.

metaStatic,

The plural of Ox is Oxen

The plural of Box is Boxen

metaStatic,

depends if you think anonymous interactions are as impactful as people you actually know.

"This thing that is terrible for everyone is also terrible for this specific subset of everyone ..."

metaStatic,

"The only thing better than owning a truck is having no fucking reason to own a truck"

It's a statement. You don't need to work; but you still could if you wanted to.

metaStatic,

They clearly can tell the difference or they might accidentally do something good for humanity.

metaStatic,

if you close your eyes it almost feels like you're eating runny snot

Gender bias in open source: Pull request acceptance of women versus men (www.researchgate.net)

Our results show that women's contributions tend to be accepted more often than men's [when their gender is hidden]. However, when a woman's gender is identifiable, they are rejected more often. Our results suggest that although women on GitHub may be more competent overall, bias against them exists nonetheless.

metaStatic,

any bias that doesn't confirm my bias is reverse bias

metaStatic,

The studio cash grab explosion of streaming services is simply too inconvenient.
Subbing to everything you want to watch would still be cheaper than renting it all before streaming.
But Netflix has changed the value proposition and the stuidios are slitting their own throats trying to catch up.

metaStatic,

gonna teach them by playing monopoly properly

metaStatic,

Deviantart died a very very long time ago. the creature currently wearing it's skin can fuck off and die for all I or any other actual artist cares.

metaStatic,

I hung around art station for a bit but there is no replacement for what deviantart used to be and that's a real shame.

metaStatic,

The halls of power is where you would always find them. this is nothing new.

metaStatic,
