brain full of lead and microplastic

What's the Hague known for?

This is only acceptable when Rutte somehow knows that Trump is cracy and this keeps him at bay until arrested.

Fuck. Can we impeach Rutte?

Gates could probably walk into most offices and get a free coffee and an impromptu meeting with the CEO if he wants to.

Preview is one of the things mac os got right. it's hard to copy. If you think about it, it does not make sense that a tool called preview that most people use to quickly read pdf (and other) files, is also a lightweight pdf editor, which is often more useful than acrobat or pdfedit or whatever you use.

It's not logical. no one will make a clone of it.

you'll have to get used to other tools.

Imagine applying to work on the youtube team because you enjoy watching videos and then you are expected to make it worse for everyone including yourself.

In the West, this is called a coworking space and people work on their 'startup'.

Look, in the end, headhunters whether they freelancer or work for an agency, only work for their own wallets. They usually get paid when there's a match, i.e. when a role gets filled or (same thing) when the candidate gets hired. To make this happen, headhunters work for both sides. Yes, usually the hiring company pays, but in a competitive market, the candidate dictates the deal.

You can totally approach a recruiter to find you a role for that suits you. if you present valuable skills and, they'll work their network for you. Usually, you can even get this service while the other side pays the fee. You just have to find a recruiter who has both the time to work with you and a network of relevant hiring mangers.

Sure, those recruiters that message you on linked in may not be interested beyond that one role they are hired to fill; but good recruiters are excited to know about talent that's on the market.

yes, i meant x86

Actually, most devices today run an amd64 kernel (amd or intel cpus in typical desktops or servers) or arm (phones, some modern notebooks). Those architectures never supported 486 cpus.

I assume, the code removed is in the x86 branch, excluded when compiling for other architectures. As others said, I guess this is mostly about maintainance effort and testing.

(But then i don't know much about the kernels. Maybe there's some interplay between amd64 and x64 x86 architectures.)

i can see myself at the event, but not in Vegas.

It's this or Google or Microsoft if you want something PowerPoint-like.

Many recommend to 'pick a javascript framework', which just like LaTeX Beamer sounds good if you do your own thing, but not ideal if people expect PowerPoint. Building slides through code is fundamentally different from drag-on-dropping images.

Pick Google or Microsoft or OnlyOffice and use their web version. This keeps your laptop free of non-free software while using the same tools everyone else has.

Pancake traditionally contains egg. Actually, eggs are the main ingredient.

Honestly, i don't know, but setting up some website that's vaguely similar to reddit, is not that hard. (Building a community and maintaining tech and community is harder.) Thus, there are probably tons of reddit-like places, some bigger, some smaller.

Before reddit and facebook, there were forums (like bb boards). Some have survived (in niches). Some communities have huge Facebook groups, used with fake accounts for shitposting. Some people use twitter/bluesky/mastodon as a reddit substite.

I guess that Instagram and TikTok have most of the market in many countries. People won't tell you how much time they spend on tiktok, but they still do.

When Trump is not the most crazy person in the room...

15€. I was shocked when it went above 10.

Israel or Meta or both?

What's the reputation of the linked site? Are there other sources?

Sure, this sounds plausible, but you want credible sources and mainstream media attention.

It's called a telephone. Kids generally don't use it anymore.
