Oh you can guarantee they won’t forget how to vote 😃

My favorite was the story of John Backflip

Why do these fuckers spend so much time and effort trying to make things worse? Like there’s scapegoating immigrants because it’ll rile up your voter base and get you re-elected and then there’s shit like taking away lunch from kids. Like who does that even benefit?

I’m genuinely asking if they just get giddy with excitement at the thought of making things worse for other people.

A buddy of mine worked in a theatre and told me that the film’s were all 1080P. I called bullshit. Those screens were huge they were clearly 4K. He showed me the reel and yup he was right.

If theatres don’t even bother with 4K, your TV doesn’t need 8K.

I think it was google that fucked it up. The newest (as of a long time back) version of Android broke it and I had to install a separate app to get ACR working again. And it never recorded their end properly unless I was on speaker or their side was somehow audible through my mic. So stupid.

Ummmm Prometheus was actually a Titan 🤓

Jokes aside Prometheus was the realest cunt. Talk about taking one for the team.

Food preparation wasn’t as well understood then as it is today and pork carried with it a risk that poultry, beef and others didn’t hence the rules against eating it.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. If your site doesn’t work on Firefox your site doesn’t work. As web developers your job is to develop applications for the web not for one specific browser. This goes double for essential services.

Same. Only reason I lock it when I leave the house is so my cat can’t crawl around on the keyboard and fuck with shit.

The fact that shrink-wrapped agreements aren’t automatically void worldwide is a fucking abomination. No you shouldn’t get to push a legally binding contract on me after I paid for the product. It’s my property now and if you want to require a license agreement after the sale then I should be able to decline it for a full refund fuck you.

Without a doubt:

Situation in Nigeria seems pretty complex

“Seven”

I didn’t mind Reddit gold as a method of paying for upkeep on an ostensibly free site. If well-off Redditors wanted to chip in to help with maintenance resulting in fewer or less intrusive ads then that’s grand.

The point when they started losing me was when the Reddit front page modernised into the Instagram feed looking abomination it is today and when they shifted from Reddit gold to the silver diamond thing they have now. No I don’t want to make an avatar. No I don’t want to follow users or have them follow me.

It started as the last example of old social media like forums and got metric’d into this half-formed freak of a site that seems to actively resent the users that build and maintain their entire platform.

Furthermore, if the manufacturer wants to pretend that they’re selling you a perpetual license to use the hardware or whatever legal bullshit they came up with on the back of a cocktail napkin between lines of coke then they can’t advertise using the words buy, own or anything similar without explicitly indicating in the largest font that you aren’t the owner of the product.

Should be made with lime juice and simple syrup. Both ingredients every bar will have.

One thing that always jumps out to me with each of these is that these videos are all just a sequence of 3 second clips stitched together.

I know all film consists of discrete shots edited into a larger piece but there’s something mechanical about these. Like I’m watching a slide show that’s just been placed in chronological order.

You lack the attention span to buy a switch? What?

Very little metroidvania in it so I think it’s a bad Metroid game but it’s still a great game. Legitimately one of the DS must haves. And it had some killer online multiplayer!

To quote Homer Simpson:

Lisa! If you don’t like your job, you don’t strike. You just go in every day and do it really half-assed. That’s the American way.

The reason why restaurant tipping is usually percentage based is because the level of service expected scales with the price of the items on the menu. The expectations on servers in fine-dining is a lot higher than a neighbourhood pub and so is the price.
