Honestly with how the world is today if I saw this in a headline I wouldn't even flinch smh
Multiculturalism and it's consequences (good ones).
This is a really neat idea. I'm frequently put off by large highly distributed (among files and dependencies) codebases with no obvious entry point. I wanted to make some changes to GNU's mailutils and the code felt genuinely incomprehensible (BSD's implementation of mail was a bit easier).
Perhaps another approach is to parse ptrace.
Indentation can be (and should be) tabs, EOL is it's its own thing either \n or CRLF which Python source code did actually care about as recently as 2.3.
Assumptions like this is why most people should stick to verbose languages with lots of guardrail braces.
To be pedantic, it's level of indentation in Python that has semantic meaning, not whitespace.
Well fuck. Telegram was a really good way to distribute tor bridges in Russia because account age can be inferred from id, so roskomnadzor glowies could be vanquished easily.
Well done Pasha, you just had to go to France, the one country that has a warrant on you? Don't the indie pharma & finance industries have enough to worry about without the glowies? Oh and bring back the wall you bastard.
Hobbyist here, Is it normal for businesses to be having 50 mil rows to insert into a 50 columns wide database via a 2100+ parameters query, 15000 inserts at a time to a single DB?
That's awesome. Glad we're finally automating the most important things in life - internet arguments.
Either US local pizza chains are unbelievably good, or your dominos is HFCS crap
I've had tons of independent pizza, idk maybe it's worse in the US because it's only Americans that seem to say this but Domino's is fairly uptown here
Why not? I've never really had any serious issues with them tbh like the order experience is always fine and it's usually cheap as hell (£12 for a large pizza here in the UK from Dominos or PJs, obvsly no tipping either and tax is in price), and if they don't deliver you can always get a refund. All the smaller restaurants are usually immigrant traffickers or ghost kitchens here nowadays.
Yeah you're not gonna get that from corpos who won't even need you for much longer. Once AI replaces your job, they'll also replace you as a customer because you'll have nothing, and they will simply only target the whales (rich). Even now the poor's best chance is to be entertaining so bored rich people give them money on YT/Twitch, between all the shock content and mukbangs it's just a less exciting version of gladiator arenas.
Everything will become like an F2P game, where whales make all the money, and the rest are there to be flexed on, like dating apps where men roll dice for a chance at a woman but they'll never get it unless they pay, letting the paying dunk on the poor. It's very transparently a casino.
It's the same sort of gender-specialized money extraction they've been doing from us through the beauty market, they just found how to do it for men.
I've been saying this for ages but I'm by far not the only one anymore https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MYB0SVTGRj4
Or we could demand change to this entire system and take humanity down a very different, much brighter path to gay luxury space socialism but nobody wants to. Guess boring cyberpunk it is.
You want to order from a local restaurant,
Don't. Either order from a big chain or don't order at all.
you need to download a third-party delivery app
Choose a different restaurant?
even though you plan to pick it up yourself.
Just walk to the store and order in-store?
You want to watch the trailer for an upcoming movie
Why? Why would anyone do that?
but you first have to sit through an ad.
Use uBlock. Sponsorblock. DeArrow. Privacy Badger. Peertube. Yt2009. Ytdl. Vanced. Newpipe.
The first page of Google results are links to pages that have scraped other pages for information from other pages that have been scraped for information.
Append site:reddit.com to the end of each search. Use udm14. Try ddg or searx or any one of the many search engine alternatives.
All the sources seem to link back to one another.
Sir this is the internet. It's always been this way.
The photos on the page look weird. The hands are disfigured. There is no image credit.
Image credit and culture of copyright and corporate capitalist scum are to blame for most shitty things on the internet, defending this shit makes you deserve the misery you helped create.
Your coworker sends you a PowerPoint pack
2002 called.
It makes even less sense.
Not your problem.
You tell them you’ll just rewrite it yourself.
Cuckold.
your favourite social media
Ewww. Imagine corporate social media unironically.
the app you use for networking
Networking as in, computer networking? Depending on the exact application there may be tons of FOSS alternatives.
If not, then stop being a corpo bootlicker and don't """network""". Problem solved.
You want to watch a TV show from your youth so you check a streaming service,
Uhmmm, why would you do that? Rarbg exists for a reason. 1337x. Rutracker. VLC. Wanna go fancy? NAS or a simple old dell optiplex or a laptop. Debian. Qbittorrent-nox. Docker. Jellyfin. JBOD of old scavenged HDDs.
You can’t read the recipe on your phone because it prioritises the ads
Firefox & uBlock Origin fixes this issue on Android.
and the page no longer loads
Find a different recipe. This shit was always mostly ctrl+c/ctrl+v spam. Use a waybackmachine.
Your phone schedules an update.
Turn automatic updates off. Never a problem on android (Pixel, not reskins).
Alternatively: Don't use a phone.
Your Gmail
Don't use Gmail.
Your smart TV
Don't use TVs.
I thought GenZ/Millennials were past owning TVs?
The Airbnb
Don't use it.
Your Uber driver
Don't use it.
You still give him five stars.
Don't.
You buy
No.
Your mother
So fat,

Strangers on social media assume you are American and get mad when you correct them.
Most of the internet is American, most websites are American, most people speaking English are American. Us stinky euros will always be secondary characters. It's Pax Americana age baby, I'm sorry you were born in the shit (I'm UK atm so def true for me).
you need to pay for a subscription to the site in order to read it.
Why not just have them send it to you as text files? Screenshots? Why are they hosting it on a paid third party website if they want it to be accessible? Why not self-host?
You go to your local library’s website and although they don’t have the exact book, they do have others by the same author. You place a hold on two of them, then go get your shoes on.
Or just download it?
All problems are user's own. Yes enshittification sucks. You're free to disconnect as much as you can.
I just want to learn in more practical terms how exploits like this function in the wild haha, but eventually I do hope to become a C chad and even an assembly chad and understand how computers actually work and perhaps shake the impostor syndrome of being a skid neesus monkey when it comes to pentesting and do something worth doing :)
Yeah? Dude got some corrupt skins for the Winamp program back in the day that didn't work and poked into the files to see what was in there.
Makes me wanna check out WACUP, but last time I tried a skin with it that I at least remember working back in the day, it didn't work.
Idk maybe it's because I'm not American so we didn't have the latest tech at all times, but I'm in my mid-20s and my first OS was Windows 2000 (no I don't mean ME). I remember my dad teaching me how to rip CDs with Alcohol 120% when I was 5 or so lol.
Trust me you're already a recluse relative to most by being on here. If you observe what passes for a "normal" "person" these days, they will endlessly scroll algorithmic ai-generated incomprehensible horrors on Tiktok, then purchase something through an ad from temu, they do not think. They are gone.
But once you stop worrying that you may be saying no to experiences too much purely on principle, then you're free to go even further and eradicate surveillance capitalism influence from your life altogether. One day you can ascend to even go smartphone-free.
If you hear about a job being in demand, then it's too late to get into it, those news will always only be good for those who are already in the field, by the time you make it through 5 years of uni, you will be competing against hordes of people who did the same in a demand bubble that's bursting or deflating.
Right now cybersecurity seems to be having a soft boom, if you're in it you're good, take it easy and maybe do a cert and diversify skillset, if you're not, don't bother.
Same with data science/ML which I would assume is going to have a large boom soon (or already had? Last I remember anyone talking about it was Cloud™️ Big Data™️ days, far pre-LLM/GenAI craze ATM.)
Honestly all of Nu-Trek is just garishly awful I don't know how anyone even tolerates this stuff. The mushroom drive is dumb, and stolen from a 2014 indie flash game, gays and all, every plot development makes no sense, we never see much of the war and the crew has nothing to do, it relies on the mirror universe like a crutch because it has no idea how to write star trek. The only good episode is the mudd groundhog day one. And Tyler? Like Tyler Durden because he's not who you think, but way way dumber than that movie? Yuck.
In Season 2 things get even worse as they desperately tried to course correct to pander by bringing out the enterprise and Spock etc. but the 7 red signals and AI plots of the show make no sense once more, even if some episodes are okay, like the one with Saru's people.
In Season 3 thanks to the fact some individual plot lines in S2 were praised, the focus is squarely back on the season-long arc, which ends in a twist that is so absurd it feels like someone is trying to kill Star Trek on purpose. And so on it goes.
In Picard S1 we have a plot once again lifted wholesale from a video game, specifically Mass Effect 3 where space octopuses from far away want to stop organics from exterminating synthetics or the other way around, but they did not understand Mass Effect 3 and the ethical dilemma of how partial anhiloation became the solution to prevent complete speciside (just like people who choose destroy in that game don't understand it either), so instead we get just a space octopus who wants to maybe protect synthetics, which leads to space nuns wanting to destroy said synthetics (it's like if Voyage Home had Kirk blow up the whales huh), so we get romulan space nuns that have access to thousands of ships because they touched a ring that showed them stock footage, them wanting to claw their eyes out is the only scene I related to throughout all this shlock.
We have "galactic treaty" and Bruce Maddox and his android pleasure planet erasing the memory of daj and saj or w/e instead of just sending them as undercover agents programmed to not reveal who they are, yet magically trust in Picard, we have romulan agents that shouldn't exist - because their entire empire spanning hundreds of star systems was somehow blown up by a supernova - beaming to put a bag on the android lady so her stunt double could start kung-fu fighting instead of concocting some sort of scheme as romulans always do, meanwhile having world's most obvious spy in Starfleet Intelligence, all so they could go to the Borg cube where none of this matters and Seven, Hugh and other characters who don't matter fight or something, until Riker commandeers all of starfleet and romulan lady commandeers all of the Romulan fleet that shouldnt exist (or else why couldn't they evacuate themselves?) and they all instantly warp away so that Patrick Stewart could become a space jesus, being reborn as an android with an enlarged prostate by special order from not-Data. Also what was with the alcoholic lady in a trailer, like she's just doing that for lulz right? No poverty and all? They get that right? Did I mention Eleanor, who's character is being a Romulan samurai that just likes cutting people's heads off?
Finally we get another relatable scene at the end where Data tells Picard he wants to die already.
In S2 we have the stupid ICE plot where Seven and the alcoholic lady steal a car and not much else and Guinan giving exposition about poverty in her bar that's inexplicably called Ten-Forward, despite not being on a ship on deck ten, forward section, and didn't she not only already know Picard but also hang out with Mark Twain and high society in the 1800s? When things were even worse? She didn't seem to have all that biting social commentary then lol.
There's so, so much more, but really the end point of it is that they threw away a universe connected by very much at least an attempt at canon consistency, even down to the design language of everything and how it was all functional and not weird transparent SFX screens all to show you a future you could hope for and see characters struggle for it and make the right decisions, Star Trek was good, and there was no need to destroy all of it and stomp all over.it just to make mediocre versions of the Expanse again showrunner'd by the guy who wrote the fucking Transformers movies.
Bruh you're in so deep you don't even see ads anymore 😱
