  • I believe it. Once big work horses were more available, people stopped tearing down the moose on-location and just dragged it home. In more modern times, they'll use a 4x4. This particular area was extremely rutted so they couldn't get anything wheeled back there, and where do you even find a Clydesdale rental service this day and age?

  • I had some moose that was given to me by my friend who was present at his friends moose hunt. They had to break the animal down at the location and make multiple meat sack trips to the game warden for tagging. The warden said they hadn't seen someone do it like that for a century.

  • I do think that the highway emphasis is important, as you're typically traveling faster and you don't want to take your eyes off the road more than you have to. Having the bright yellow highway for things like complex offramps has been helpful to me in the past. I'll just have to see how it goes.

  • looking again, the greater contrast for smaller roads is nice.

  • Why would you change the roads to grey from yellow? What? What is the primary thing your eye is seeking when using a GPS app?

  • A typo in the first paragraph of the article in a wiki wont make the 5th paragraph tear down the entire wiki.

  • Web assembly isn't quite the same as a js frontend though, is it?

    It's typically for complex single page apps and has some weirdness with normal usecases, no?

    I could be wrong but I was looking into it a few months ago and it seemed immature.

  • a front-end language

    I love rust but this requires killing the web app and using basic html. which i'm also pro.

  • I had an old arch install about 7 years ago that stopped booting, so I booted into ubuntu, mounted the ssd, used a chroot to fix it, forgot to unmount the ssd, proceeded to rm the mount dir as it was "temporary". It took me mere seconds to realize what I did and by then it was a lost cause. I was able to use a file recovery tool to grab my precious memes, but thankfully there wasn't much else valuable on the drive.

    Worlds most roundabout rm -rf /

  • Its not dead simple but its also not extremely complex.

    I'm currently working with some interns and there's just concepts they were never exposed to. Without decent mentoring, git can be difficult because a lot of the workflow does come with experience.

    That being said everyone needs to stop acting like its an impossible task to properly do source control. There is some truth that if you don't care enough to do your source control, you don't care enough to write decent code. Its not a moral failing, just take some pride in your craft.

    Show the newbies how to care and they'll care enough to want to do it right. Measure twice, cut once and all that.

  • I remember this too, part of the name was like "tik terry tembo"

  • I bought a super cheap classic and did a flash mod, battery upgrade, and bluetooth mod.

    The bt mod only came after I went back to wired headphones and experienced the rage of having earbuds ripped out when the wire hooks onto things. I was a bt earbud hater for a bit but the freedom is somethin else.

    It does suck a lot to load music onto it, I've tried foobar2000 and a linux option. the former is better but windows, if you switch around you need to re-sync the entire ipod, which over slow USB2 is a many hour endeavor.

    The simplicity of not being distracted by a notification when you go to change a song is undefeated.

  • real fwds from FOSS grandma hours, huh.

  • DAE DMV?

    Every time I hear someone complain about the DMV, USPS, etc, I assume they're being difficult to the workers. Every experience I've had with these kind of government services, I read up ahead on what I need, organize my shit, and show up prepared with a smile.

    When I do that you see a wave of relief over the worker and they return the smile and respect. You can basically extrapolate the verbal abuse they deal with all day long.

    With my secret method(being nice and respectful), every USPS worker I've interacted with has either been very friendly, or neutral but relieved.

    Leave our brave troops alone goddamnit, be nice to them.

  • Shooting children through a fence has been a pretty good strategy for Israel, why not give that one a go?

  • Breaking out my copy of "On Palestine", the notorious Chomsky X Pappe split record so I can factually tell people to fuck off with citations.

  • Do you have any actual criteria for that stat? I don't either but I know I've seen enough videos of families removed at gun point from their homes, enough for a few lifetimes.

    Hell, the attacks on Al Asqa is more than enough proof that they're not simply building homes on land they own, but are acting as a violent invading force.
