A friend of mine had one. We used to play in the garden while the game was loading. Fucking tapes…

I would ask for a refund because it’s a broken TV. I’m not kidding, who the fuck accepts this?

Making your own coffee is $5 for a whole box that lasts 2 weeks.

my phone was $1300 USD

How is that possible? I bought a brand new Pixel (old model) for less than $400 last year. And it is still expensive, I can get brand new Sony for $300.

I found out my parent’s computer had a lot viruses because they are dumb and bought a McAffee subscription. I told them, they answered that they knew better than me, I replied that I had a degree in computer sciences, and my father laughed like the fucking idiot he is.

Let’s say we don’t talk about my job or computer anymore. Also I reduced the visits and phone calls that they had because I’m tired with their bullshit.

It’s not smart if it’s not connected to anything. Only HDMI.

You’re talking about the American concept of having no privacy in public. Not all countries are like that.

Actually Clion is prone to eating all your RAM randomly. It’s Java after all.

I once fixed an important bug by force-pushing on the master branch (I was an admin too and could do it). I had 5 minutes to fix it, and no one was aware of it. I didn’t ask for permission but I was sweating a lot.

Spotify early projects may have used the pirated MP3s of the employees so…

As long as religion is not woman’s choice, you can force whatever you want.

No because it wouldn’t be a video anymore. You would need to create your own file format and application to read that thing.

Also why? It seems like a very limited use case and I don’t know any scenario where I would need that. No one encrypts videos except for those (idiots) who distribute movies in the theaters or on Blu-ray.

Same for me. I don’t know about the recent drama, but I remember that bluesky censored stuff and now they can’t pretend to be an alternative to twitter.

Banks are still running Cobol programs written by Jesus on punchcards. But it’s not the same use case, Linux is mostly running on servers without a UI.

The history of the CTO at a previous job was filled with dc and sl because he was a fucking moron. Yes I’m still bitter that he earned way more money than me who had to fix all his mess.

Please tell me because I have been using Windows at home and at work for more than 30 years and I still believe that most people only need Firefox and LibreOffice.

For the past whole year, yes. Hacker News is now 1/3 technology, 1/3 politics, 1/3 AI. It’s annoying.

Yeah, it’s very easy… as long as it’s working, which it is not, at all.

And in a million years, people will still do everything possible except install Linux. Ubuntu is 20 years old and it was already a decent alternative to Windows back then. People are idiots and we shouldn’t be sorry for them.
