  • When you don't have fresh fruits for the canning line, you can keep the lines busy with another product you mix up from a shelf stable powder...pudding.

    • Focusing on UX
    • Linux

    Pick One.

  • This move is known as "the Philly special"

  • I bid you ado, Color!

  • That dumb reason is Tether printing new phoney-bucks.

  • Hummmmm...Lennart Pottering?

  • Laughs in pliers wrench

  • passing away of Bram Moolenaar has made me accelerate faster towards the day where my machine would be clean of any electron bloat.

    Was he electroncuted or something?

  • Windows shipped with said driver.

  • 6 years ago, I was using a USB wifi adapter with my desktop (my friends next door paid for internet and we paid them half the bill to share).

    I had picked this wifi adapter specifically because it had linux support, even though I used windows (I had an inkling I'd switch). So, I tried to switch but upon boot I couldn't wifi because the adapters module wasn't bundled by my distro so I had to instal 'dkms', but I couldn't do that without an internet connection...

    So yeah, it can still bite you.

  • If I ask you to name your favorite gatorade flavor and you don't say a color, you're a cop.

  • Just paperwork so the whales in the office feel like they do something.

    It means nothing when you live in a "at will" employment jurisdiction.

    In the past, (or in a union contract) employers had to prove they had "just cause" to fire you. This would be documentation of cause.

  • IMO this has less to do with Musk, or any moral consequences and more to do that most of Twitter's traffic has always been bot activity, and companies are waking up to the fact that they have been paying to serve their ads to bots.

    I foresee facebook and reddit falling to the same fortune.

  • My GF is a pool cleaner and once got written up for sending a customer a picture of dead pigeons that were in their yard.

    The customer called the office screaming that she sent the pictures "to be mean."

    Turns out these people had pest control out on their property to "remove" all the frogs because the frogs were "keeping them awake at night", and the birds took the bait instead.

    Yes, these folks were filthy rich and entitled.

  • Biometrics are good for some things.

  • Yeah, when I think of Germany, I think of papers.

  • Advertising is a drain on society that encourages regular people to choose and act suboptimally.

    There are absolutely allowed to be laws around advertising and people absolutely have the right to be annoyed when those laws are not properly protecting them.

    Video games are no longer a wild frontier, it's a 50 year old established industry and market that is wildly profitable and absolutely deserves to be legislated into polite and proper conduct.

    We absolutely should bitch and moan that meaningful legislation is not being passed on this front.
