The error correction isn’t enough to overcome a bad background?

My memories of the early days of designing these things for ad clients (we’re talking 2010-11) were that like 20% “damage” was allowed before scanning became difficult. So of course my art director wanted to put cutesy shit all over them to be “unique”.

I just didn’t want the client to ask when it didn’t work because their phones didn’t like them.

I took German in highschool, but all that’s left is: Darf ich aufs Klo gehen?

Is this how deprogramming works? Many of his followers have made him their way of life.

Changing a person’s worldview isn’t a trivial undertaking.

That is still unparalleled with CUDA.

I still don’t understand how an open source alternative with better hardware support hasn’t happened yet.

A whole bunch of the companies that boomed died though.

Anyone remember bigwords.com? Or pets.com?

Yup, my heart skipped a little beat before I got to the end.

Its marketplace has been really popular in my area. Craigslist has all but dried up for may item types.

But they own Instagram as well don’t forget, and they have bought out many other competitors that we won’t ever get to experience.

American here; I’m gonna need that measurement in blue whale corpses.

Could be his dad for now old it is, but now I’m wondering if this is where he got his hair style from.

Yeah, lack of competition is driving a lot of this. Fixing bugs doesn’t increase their stock value. It doesn’t make the line go up.

Launching products and bragging about profits makes the line go up (especially just before a quarter or monthly report is due).

AT&T/Bell Telephone was like this for years until they were finally broken up (nominally). When cellphones came out and provided nationwide competition, long distance suddenly became free.

We need to bust up google, Facebook, etc. They have nothing to push them to be better, just CEO egos and investors to please.

I discovered a legit bug in the handling of switch statements I a for loop in Actionscript 2 way back when Flash was still a thing.

Until I finally killed my blog about it last year, it was the only result other than my post on the adobe site around the same time. I don’t think it ever got fixed, but didn’t keep following after the iPhone finished off flash.

I’d prefer it actually visible to the candidates.

They need to know that we know.

The best thing about this joke is how protesting will make him sound so much more guilty of it.

Yeah, iPhones have similar modes, swipe down and the screen scrolls down you can also swipe the keyboard to either side for better access too.

I hardly ever do that though, except by accident.

I vote for big true/false gauge behind them both. The needle swings as the speaker speaks. Maybe a flashing red light for insane lies and green for absolute truth.

But they would need real fact checkers voting on the truthfulness in real time to make it work.

“‘Test’ any out?”

A wild Vance appears

Sounds like we all need to make accounts and post nothing but JD Vance docs.

Calling it body odor is even generous. It’s full diapers, called makeup, and cologne.

Edit: Cake makeup, I swear autocorrect is changing words way after I’ve typed them lately.

That’s also not the look of a man with much of anything in his head.
