  • What? No, it's developing countries stealing thousands and thousands of cars from rich country Canada. Buy a new RAV4 hybrid in Canada, it will be in africa/middle east in less than a month....

  • Well, less and less people post stuff like their vacation pic or food pic etc. Then more and more companies pay to be in your feed, so now your feed is only non-sense stuff like yours, or mine, it does not make sense, I often see posts from stuff not in my country or sometimes not in my language.

    I only use FB for Marketplace (really big here), and for some FB hobby groups that replace good old forums. I never publish anything, and only one of my friend still post pictures of their journey, that's it.

    In Canada it is way worst, because every sources deemed news media cannot post/share articles, imagine in the USA if your feed had no news like cnn, abc, nbc, cbs, npr, nyt, etc. but in your feed you see all the alternatives news (read: far-right, conspiracy, pro-russian, pro-musk, anti-ev, etc).

    This is our reality in Canada, our facebook feed looks like twitter, full of hate and fake news. I always block them, but there are certainly thousands and thousands of bots posting those kind of thing.

    FB is dead.

  • And what with her eyebrows? It's Sharpie?

  • Iconic, I remember the good old flash, I still have it somewhere I'm sure

  • Oh Steve

  • IIRC he didn't bath, he was stinking so much that when he worked at Atari he was moved to night shift because of his odor complaints.

  • Some Canadian are pretty specials too, talking about first amendment and second one, having Trump flag and sticker on their truck, etc.

    But yeah, weather, and Trudeau

  • Wtf? My company just gave me a Dell laptop, i7 13800H, 32GB ram, 1tb nvme, etc

  • I know people who do HFT cards, it's FPGA decoding ethernet packet when they enter, and send the answer at the same time, when the bytes for price enter, FPGA algorithm takes decision in a few nanoseconds to output the byte for buy or sell. It does this millions times per second

  • Fucking Caml, hate this language 👺

  • You're lucky Musk is born in SA, or he would be your president in a few terms!

  • It's been a long time I saw a reference to goatse!

  • Yeah about the same, I visited /., anadtech, tom's, betanews, etc about daily maybe 20 years ago, but I haven't been to those in a decade for sure, except slashdot I still go there

  • Great Scott I'm happy to not be an American, I don't know how citizens will survive another term by this stupid idiot.

  • Those old centronics cables on the other hand, maybe it’s time for them to go.

    Yep, I bought a Centronics cable maybe 30 years ago for $100, for a parallel printer. I kept the printer maybe 10 years, then moved to a laser/ethernet at the time. But I kept this damn cable 20 years more in case of!!!! It's now in a thrift store bin for $1 I guess.
