You could also buy insanely expensive IBM enterprise hardware. I think they still do PowerPC stuff

Both can be true, don't pressure yourself. Just do what you can if you feel like it and vote for people who do too

Because companies give zero fucks. They will tell you they need tons of IT people, when in reality they want tons of underpaid programmers. They want stuff as fast and cheap as possible. What doesn't cause immediate trouble is usually good enough. What can be patched up somehow is kept running, even when it only leads you further up the cliff you will fall off eventually.

Management is sometimes completely clueless. They rather hire twice as many people to keep some poorly developed app running, than to invest in a new, better developed app, that requires less maintenance and provides a better user experience. Zero risk tolerance and zero foresight.

It still generates money, you keep it running. Any means are fine.

You need to use as many different formats as possible, otherwise you look unprofessional

Since you can set temporary, server-only nicknames, you don't even need to edit the page source or Photoshop to stage that

eDolf Musk is learning a valuable lesson: As a billionaire, you can basically do what you want. Except if you are in a very competitive business and it makes people hate your guts.

I know this isn't Greek, but I immediately thought of pesos and I bet you some people are gonna be hella mad if you call the US a pesocracy

lol

Go to settings, search for Application Style, there, in the top right you can click Gtk Theme and select one. You can also click Get new.. and download a new one. Note that they might now show all by default.

You can find more via the website. To do so, select any, click Visit project website and search the site for more. To find them in the Get new... window, just put the name in the search bar. They are guaranteed to show then.

Edit: Any of the items I named might be slightly off. Need to get to my computer to correct that 😄

While I get that people try to hurt Tesla's sales, please don't set random people's property on fire. You might destroy the live of someone who bought a car before Edolf Musk rose to power and displayed the extent of his insanity.

Couldn't care less for Tesla's fresh out the factory tho

Well...

Pretty damn cool tech tho. Another step towards second heart cyberware

Nooo, that's disgusting. The wrapper from the thing I just shoved into my face is trash now after all 😭

I feel connected to my city, my region, the EU and Germany in that order. Which is how it's supposed to be I guess, except that EU and Germany are swapped for some facist reasons

It's so weird how people in power play the most dangerous games in countries where the population is not disarmed

I guess what you meant to say is that are people stupid enough to buy that shit.

I don't necessarily think that is about stupidity tbh, but that aside, you might want to work on your wording

You think about it the wrong way. GPS is not passive, it is everywhere

I have a wireless keyboard. It comes with its own dongle, so you can expect it to work with some generic keyboard driver. I plugged into my USB-hub, works just fine on Linux. No lag, no nothing.

On Windows? Well, it works, but the audio device I have plugged in just straight up refuses to function while the dongle is hooked up as well. It seems to gobble up pretty much the entire bandwidth. Amazing.
