beefcat,

the stuffed crust is prepared as a calzone but becomes sushi once the pizza is sliced.

beefcat,

the burden of proof is not suspended just because said proof would be upsetting.

beefcat,

i’ve had dozens of IPAs and have yet to find a good one

beefcat,

oh there are plenty of other beers i like, i just also like making fun of ipas.

beefcat,

it’s kind of shocking how bad motorcycles are at fuel efficiency given how much less mass they have to move

beefcat,

it is pretty obviously a joke at dominos expense

beefcat,

i’ve had real italian pizza, in italy. it was fucking delicious, but it doesn’t make the best pies i’ve had in places like new york or chicago taste like cardboard with sauce. some places in nyc can absolutely go toe-to-toe with italy.

beefcat,

I agree about Charlie Brown and the Rankin/Bass TV specials, but It’s a Wonderful Life is a great film that has stood the test of time.

beefcat,

We’ve also gone from people needing to be independently wealthy to even think about creating great music to just needing a cheap computer. Music hasn’t gotten lazier, the barrier to entry has just gotten lower meaning there is a lot more being made across the quality spectrum.

I don’t follow. The cooler designs on modern midrange and high end GPUs are way bigger and more elaborate than anything that has ever shipped on a $150 GPU.

beefcat,

I like not having to worry about a leak destroying all my expensive hardware.

beefcat,

OP still uses Windows XP.

beefcat, (edited )

because that isn’t really how these things work. It doesn’t matter how secure your operating system is, it can still get infected with malware if you let the user download and install arbitrary software. every modern desktop operating system that allows this has this hole.

features that pop up warnings when running code not signed by the OS vendor (like Windows SmartScreen or macOS Gatekeeper) help to an extent, but are not magic bullets since users can still override them.

at the end of the day, the best defense is to make sure you actually trust any software you download before running it.

beefcat,

how would you expect something like windows update to function without elevated privileges?

activation nagware

what?

beefcat, (edited )

most windows programs haven’t run as root in over a decade.

a program only runs as “root” in one of three situations:

  1. The app manifest says it is a requirement.
  2. The executable does not have an app manifest and has the “Run as Administrator” compatibility flag (only applies to apps built for XP or older).
  3. The user manually invokes the program with super user permissions (right click and “Run as Administrator", or manually set the above compatibility flag).

I could never be comfortable with myself knowing I was facilitating the transmission of CSAM.

beefcat,

i don’t get it

beefcat,

he talks about why he didn’t do that in the video

beefcat,

hey now most of that stuff is wrong and should be shunned but i see no problem with human sacrifices

beefcat,

Dual-booting literally is a supported use case

beefcat,

The NYC subway banned dogs on trains unless they fit into a small bag, so this guy trained his Pitbull to sit in a small bag
