  • Literally all of these are anecdotal evidence. Youth crime is down massively since the 90's, and beyond the very real gun violence (for which y'all have tried nothing and are all out of ideas) none of the stories you linked demonstrate or try to demonstrate a systemic problem except the systemic problem of news organisations optimizing for clicks rather than information.

  • Not at all reminiscent of another, also completely healthy and democratically sound country about 100 years ago

  • XY problem: you'd spend more efforts and resources sourcing and installing this thing (that I'm pretty sure doesn't exist) rather than fix the existing sensor that's already in the mouse. Fix the existing sensor that's in the mouse.

  • I feel i'm kinda vaccinated against the junior feeling because week 2 of my first job out of college, I crashed both sides of a cluster, leaving the client's factory responsible for half of their European production dead for 3 days.

    I panicked for a few days then they asked me to do an incident report and I thought I was cooked and then literally nothing happened to me. Nowadays if shit hits the fan at 16h59 then I'm gone at 17h00 anyway and so should everybody that's bothered by the smell.

  • Si tu veux te barrer, dm ton CV. Je te présenterais bien l'entreprise mais au point où t'en es je sais que tu t'en fous donc c'est toi qui voit

  • Gaspacho perhaps? Frozen soup is just fancy ice cubes :D

  • The third law has a nice ring to it, but it has extremely deep implications when you're writing science fiction, or fantasy that has magic. Thinking about the law is very useful to keep your technology technology (and not basically magic that happens to run on electricity) and magic magic (and not technilogy that happens to run on plot holes).

  • The drivers are generally available pretty quickly, however I find that stable distros do not ship them, which is understandable but unfortunate. Debian (my beloved) is egregiously bad at it.

  • Apparently the Lenovo yoga tab 13 (now really old) and the Lenovo tab extreme (out of stock near me) have that feature.

  • Submarines also famously don't have windows

  • In a chat I ma in someone made the same point with "having sex with your coworkers is bad: a novel hash weakening technique"

  • Waffle tweet moment

  • Because this is a safe space, not connected to my real life identity.

  • Doesn't this mean that the system is never up to date? If so, please don't.

  • This is precisely what the "much privacy, muh data" crowd was warning us us against. I try to avoid saying I'm queer online, because there's a very real chance my government turns fascist and asks google/facebook/whatever for a list, and they haven't given me a reason to think they wouldn't give that list without thinking about it twice.

  • Sorry, only spyware laden with ads is available currently at that price.

  • I mean, not necessarily your fault but at least you know someone could care to fix it, and you didn't spend $100 for the privilege.
