Have a look at kdenlive as well. Each has their pros and cons

I know trump doesn't know world history.

But helping Russia and asking Lithuania for help are mutually exclusive options.

Did the most damage... But I'm not sure he's villainous. Just competently dangerous. Happy to be corrected but I thought tmjr was trying to improve the world. He just got massively unlucky... Multiple times.

Are people really taking pride in "voting for a convicted felon"?

Im being a huge guy - can go to the women bathroom

OK

People will exploit this.

Do you? Who is currently stopping you?

Why would someone who wants to batter, rape or abuse another person be stopped by an unlocked door with a little cartoon sign on it?

I'm not saying we should...

But negative tariffs on eggs coming out of the USA and ridiculous tariffs on eggs going into the USA would tickle my funny bone

Excuse me sir, we appear to have a different definition of "winning".

Remove the romance element from it.

If the bottle spins, someone has to spend time in your company doing something you enjoy. You and your friends all agree. The bottle lands on you, and suddenly whatever it was you enjoy is not just "unenjoyable" but is actively repulsive to the other people. Ironically, I'd expect people to be repulsed by having to do half my hobbies, so this isn't a perfect reframing.

Apologies if I'm not being sensitive to your thought patterns. But there must be a way of reframing this that you can see why someone would be upset that their "friends" find them actively repulsive to even be around.

I'm not particularly surprised.

I've had a hp laptop provided by work before. There were DVI ports on the laptop and fucking station. I'm Windows, the ports on the laptop were disabled when plugged into the docking station. I presumed they were hard wired over to the dock

On Linux, all the ports worked just fine and I could hook up every port on the laptop and dock just fine

This. So much of this.

I see the same with any federated platform. People are excited to explain how complicated and clever and different services and integrations and... Shut the fuck up.

App, sign-up, post, like, subscribe. Done.

People will learn the rest if it is important enough to them to master

Which flag do we use for English?

I won't allow the stars and stripes

I’m experienced in the field of cyber security

So... go lookup the CVEs. Go have a look at what the actual threats against the old device are. What's the method of attack and do you care.

If you decide you're happy with the device. Then remember to keep going back and seeing if any new attacks against the device exist.

Whatever happens, we're not protected against 0day attacks (by their very nature).

I guess there is some reason to worry about "unknown" attacks against the device. But like 0day's, there's probably unknown attacks against patched devices as well.

Given your opinions are on the reasonable side of truck owners

What advantage does a truck have over a panel van for work use?

Yes I'm European. Yes I actually want a truck for some unknown social reason. But every time I look at trucks I think the beds are either too small or I think my shit is going to get wet back there. An enclosed panel van has a bigger converted storage area.

Ban landlord culture and property prices drop.

Kinda sucks for those already with a mortgage. Defending rental culture because someone might lose out now only guarantees that an ever increasing majority lose out in the future.

Na... Honestly

Baldurs gate and bgII had an open world where you could go anywhere. Go to certain places early game, you'd get hard fucked up. Go there later, you could make progress.

I loved the feeling of getting more powerful and that was what unlocked more of the game.

Or calling the NHS expensive and inneficient. Underfunding it would be extremism as well.

Needs v wants

Needs: healthcare, utilities, public transport, even a minimal but quality food source. Even to the point of utilitarian but working phones/devices. State ownership where profits are minimal but go back into the state. The services aren't necessarily free, but are run without massive shareholder payouts.

Wants: upgrades and luxuries. iPhones, treat foods, nice cars, silk bedding and those ridiculous marshmallow shoes everyone loves. Regulated but free market.

Now all your basic needs are covered by the community together. You could probably live a simple life with very little income. If you want luxury or fancy, feel free to work too get it.

Going public would mean gaben has sold out. Which would make sense for him at some point. If he's still working there he'll be stuck with the worst of both worlds.

Whoever comes in under him will want to make their pie and ready it too.

You've started on a completely false assumption.

TBH some of the best art, music and creativity in games comes from small indie studios and developers. Who put creativity and skill into their project. They make it good by actually making it all. Games with a unique style and fun ideas come from small indie studios who need supporting.

AI is a shortcut to stealing others work by proxy. It creates content that is non-novel by its very design and by the very limitations of the tool.

artists, programmers and musicians that can lovingly hand craft the loot boxes

What are you on about? It's the companies churning out loot box after loot box that are programmatically producing them. You're actively invalidating your own point in your rant.

At this point, reading your comment again. I'm really hoping I just missed some dry sarcasm.

Even then, not having to move your hands means not spending time... Moving your hands.

This is useful for people who want to spend time learning to be enforcement at what they do. In the same way that holding a Nintendo controller "weird" is useful for Tetris speed runners.

If you are as efficient as you need to be using a shower interface, then great. Other people need (or more likely want) to be more efficient than that.

Maybe I'm a luddite, but I still don't understand why people want to spend their time arguing with Claude code and fixing it's bugs. Rather than just learning to write productive coffee themselves. But, people do. That's their choice, and I let them to it.

If prefer to spend my time learning him and code, than Claude and idiosyncrasies, and then whatever to comes next, and next again.
