I’m a bit confused: how did they resign from a department that was just created? Would Trump and Musk not have staffed it with loyalists?

Despite the shortcomings, the fact that you could leave the Vita on standby for eons without losing a significant charge made it my favourite handheld ever.

But Windows is unique in that it can fit a whole lot of shit in it. Way more than one could imagine.

Minecraft, Chrome etc are a 7 litre compost caddy of shit. Windows is a vast open country waiting to be turned into landfill of human waste.

I’ve always wondered this. For now I’ve settled on the hypothesis that all the first astronomers all had astigmatism.

Interesting given that he is actually preparing for an apocalypse scenario where he hides out in a bunker only to emerge a leader of men.

Not many people could get a bullseye with 40,000 darts and a year to use them. Fairplay to Israel for their precision on this one.

You’d think it would be a blow to Bethesda that their sole programmer quit, but fortunately the creation engine is so cutting edge that I’m sure they’ll lean on it just as it is for years to come.

It’s not like this was a case that was brought before him. He didn’t have to decide anything.

Just like you didn’t have to decide to be a condescending prick when people started disagreeing with you.

He’s simply disputing the assertion that ugly people aren’t allowed to make music.

It’s how useful scales work.

But well done on the Herculean effort you’ve put forth in demonstrating your general ignorance.

Dear god, is Fahrenheit the reason behind meaningless movie ratings? Another reason to hate it…

I dunno, man. You’ve been driving home this idea that Fahrenheit is a scale and therefore great for intuiting ambient temperature, you can’t just turn around and be all ‘Well OBVIOUSLY 50% isn’t the neutral point.’

In any scale where 0 is dangerously low and 10 is dangerously high, 5 would be a happy medium.

How does anything Hamas are doing have any bearing on this guy openly broadcasting his genocidal fantasy?

The reason for NATO’s involvement is quite irrelevant because they were still happy to step in and do the work. The fact is that it was ultimately NATO-led and their efforts did not lead to peace in the region.

To call NATO’s involvement in Libya ‘anti-war’ is sheer lunacy.

The invasion of Libya was a NATO-led effort.

Stop lying.

It’s easy to forget that Windows’ success doesn’t come from people seeking it out and installing it as an OS intentionally. They’re buying machines that come preloaded with it. Linux’s success, however big or small, lies in how its methods of distribution compare to Windows OEM dominance.

Let’s be real: when it comes to the actual installation of an OS, regular users ask people like us to do it for them. I don’t think Linux is going to outpace Windows anytime soon, but the last few times I’ve been asked for that kind of help, I’ve installed Linux for them, because it is absolutely ready to be used by regular people.

I fully believe PC gaming’s future is on Linux. Valve are pushing compatibility heavily enough to the point where Proton runs virtually all my games as smoothly as Windows would and as hard as it would have been to believe a few years ago, most my library has native support anyway. Combined with the fact that Linux has a smaller runtime overhead than Windows, most of my games run better.

Ease of use is the harder metric to gauge. Most people seem to forget that Windows isn’t built for ease of use; not like MacOS anyway. Things break on Windows all the time; most people are just more familiar with the common workarounds. Even installing things are easier (once the user learns the singular command they need to do this) and flatpak installations align more with how people are used to installing apps on their phones and tablets.

anti-NATO

A “harmful ideology”? Is someone paying you to spout this propaganda?

It’s Ted Ts’o, the maintainer of the ext4 filesystem amongst other things.

little shit

Though you’re still accurate despite his seniority.

It is a bit odd that there’s an influx of anti Firefox and AMD stuff after Google and Intel were in the news for major things.

Why on earth do Americans call a single bed ‘twin’?
