Some good fucking news.

See you guys next year to push it back again.

That will protect the children, for sure.

If I lived in the US, I'd be far more concerned about sending my kids to school but whatever.

"War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength."

Now watch as the narrative becomes that he turned into a hateful and dangerous leftist by being indoctrinated at university, even though he comes from a good, god loving family.

Life's hard enough as it is, one has to practice self love.

User is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported.

In the age of SEO and AI slop, may your niche hobby or interest never become trendy.

That's really unsurprising. I don't know what the MS guys are smoking but I need some urgently.

Also, has there been anything, in recent memory, that Microsoft has tried to do that was new, and has been a success?

Seems to me for the past 15 years they have just:

• Made their existing products worse;
• Acquired other products and destroyed them;
• Tried new things that flopped monumentally.

We are so lucky to live in a society were the merit of one's product and company dictates their market success /s

She is the great granddaughter of J. J. Thomson who got the Nobel prize for the discovery of the electron.

Can you imagine how fucking mediocre one has to be to start their life surrounded by such knowledge, with such an advantage, and not manage to be anything better than a little capitalist lapdog scribbling propaganda in bullshit newspaper .

I was sat opposite a woman who had a grocery bag filled to the brim with crisps packets, or so it seemed. She started out just munching on crisps, mouth fully open, shoving her hands in there. She emptied two packs in between two stops (metro). Efficient.

When she had enough she started rumaging frantically through her bag for a solid 20 seconds, and then triumphantly dug out a can of whipped cream (squirty cream format for my UK friends), opened it, and just emptied the whole thing in her mouth in one go!

It was in France, of all fucking places.

Techbros trying desperately to solve the very real problem of them not getting any through removing that little obstacle in their way: consent.

A new Linux user posting an anti Linux meme on a Linux community, on Lemmy. Well, I wish I had a tenth of your courage.

I do hope they go easy on you, brave soul.

Mandatory "I use arch btw..."

They are so fucking predictable, it's actually infuriating. We are losing to this FFS.

No, Rust is to make you feel like you haven't programmed seriously in 20 years when you first pick it up, even though you are actively doing it.

Before the angry rust "mob" comes to get me: this is a joke. I tried Rust out of genuine curiosity, cobbled together a silly little thing, and quite liked it. The borrow checker made me feel like a total beginner again, in some aspects, and it was great to get that feeling again.

Ultimately it does not fit my needs, but there are a few features I am pretty envious of. I can totally see why it's getting such a following, and I hope it keeps growing.

You had me look it up as I had assumed she was English, and learned that her mother was of French and Scottish descent...

I'd like to join in the apology, from the other side of the channel. It sucks that the Auld Alliance's legacy is tainted by this terf piece of shit.

Good ol' CS flashbang PTSD.

This below is windows 11 consistency, within their own os context menus. I am not even starting on the fact that window decorations there too are a non standardised mess.

I agree that lack of UI consistency is less than ideal, and very real in Linux, but let's not pretend that this is a main issue stopping people from migrating (from an equally inconsistent OS)

That's funny because seeing that meme, I thought how interesting it was that the "hardcoreness" of a Linux user went from being measured by the length of the greybeard to the height of the programming socks.

Although, I guess back then, the distros mentioned would probably have been revolving around Gentoo, void, slackware, and Linux from scratch. So I suppose greybeards don't necessarily need the high socks.

Damn shame if you ask me.

Winget is such a half-assed effort. Updating the terminal? Terminal shuts down and you need to open it and run the update again. Updating something else? Maybe it'll change the binary location and not update the path, just for fun (happened twice with LLVM stuff for me). This update failed for some reason? Try to run update again only to be told no updates are available.
