90% of people aren’t worth the time

  • The one technology was obsolete before I could buy it, though when I first bought an Oculus Quest I tried ripping 3D Blu-rays and realized ~12 fps per eye is pretty shit quality anyway.

  • Why is just “Lung-cancer” hyphenated?

  • I’m 36 and don’t really consider myself to have friends. Working from home for years and just not really “clicking” with people in my city keep me isolated but it’s alright. The few social functions I find myself obligated to attend kind of suck so I don’t feel I miss out on much.

  • Why are people so determined to make tiling happen on macOS? Am I missing something? The new Windows-inspired resizing has never been useful, and never have I wanted to “tile” windows the way Windows users seem do.

  • Even with autofilling it on iOS, macOS you still have developers that need to fuck with form fields using JavaScript because they think they’re smarter than you.

  • I haven’t used Windows in like 20 years but it’s funny they still haven’t gotten around to fixing percentages. I remember stuff like this from the Windows XP days.

  • SMS/email-based 2FA should die.

  • That account is an easy block. I don’t usually look at people’s post history but damn.

  • I’m on Linux and I was going to shit all over Windows but realized I could use this on a few servers that I fuck with and constantly break.

  • Never got into Hulu. Didn’t it always have ads even if you were paying?

  • That’s true. I don’t print much (I’m happy to go to the print shop) but my wife does quite a bit, but not enough to keep the ink from drying out.

    After buying two inkjet printers and having constant problems with the cartridges it probably would’ve been cheaper to start with the Brother laser printer I eventually bought. I didn’t realize that HP would lock out cartridges from their subscription on cancellation either (which feels very morally wrong to me).

  • I could get into it if it were laser; I’ve long given up on inkjet.

  • It just hasn’t been my experience at all as a developer. I’m sorry you’ve been forced to keep legacy code around for the sake of not breaking things.

  • Yeah that was kind of my point.

  • Whenever I see the BBC or any British English I assume antisocial means incredibly rude or mean. It’s not the first time I’ve seen it used, and I think a few months ago there was a news article saying “antisocial driving” — still can’t remember what that meant.

  • I’ve never seen that before. Finder is usually smart enough to close any of its windows showing its files/folders before unmounting.

  • And that removable object’s filesystem is probably the most shit, unjournalled filesystem in the world so you’re actually fucked if it becomes corrupted by removing it early.

  • changing it too much carries high risks

    This is such a Windows way of thinking. Why does every other OS constantly change and evolve but Windows is like “can’t touch this code from a quarter century ago?”
