On Halloween, they push candy and costumes. On Christmas, they push everything.

How many Halloween movies are there? How many Christmas movies?

I sometimes wonder about that word “finger”. If fingers fing, then what is finging?

Let’s try that defense for public nudity. People can just choose to not look at it if they don’t like it!

It zooms in when I click on it. Are you on mobile?

“This was made by AI” is the new “This is fake; I can tell by the pixels”.

I liked it at first, but then I ran into some really weird shit. Re-installing didn’t erase the previous install, programs I installed disappeared after reboot, etc. This might be caused by the jankiness of UEFI, I don’t know. I’m never buying another HP laptop after they pulled this shit with UEFI. It’s given me so many headaches.

How can they do that if they don’t have enough money

can I be a Free Software advocate but still use non-free software??

I’m asking this because one time, while browsing the GNU website, I noticed that some of the members’ emails had “gmail” on them!! And I asked myself how would that be possible?? And I think other members of the FSF had Gmail too. Why? Richard Stallman is against Gmail, so why would those memberse use it?? Would that...

I haven’t. What happens?

I remember when it was considered a mark of professionalism for a web developer to have an email on their own domain. At some point that changed. I think after GMail came out it was so good that everybody switched to that.

If you’re going to make “as well” into one word, why not add “may”, too? Mayaswell!

If this is in the US, I feel like it would be a violation of OSHA. Or maybe it’s something so stupid that OSHA never thought to make it a rule.

“Be patient. It’s compiling.”

“Well, when can I use my computer?”

“…Tomorrow.”

Ballmer seems like a cokehead. He probably did plenty of both, though.

I often wonder about this. Does capitalism impose so much emotional freight that it makes coding intimidating? Does having it attached to ideas about working hard and getting a job drain the fun out of it?

I’m beginning to think that I would actually get more coding done if I abandoned it as a career path.

Whenever I meet another web dev, they either have a job as a web dev, they’re looking for a job as a web dev, or they’re trying to create a startup. There are no hobbyists.

Yes, because “security through obscurity is not security”.

I’ve been using Linux for almost 20 years, and AFAIK in all that time I’ve never encountered a Linux virus. OTOH when I run Windows, I hit a virus within the first six months.

Yeah, it’s like the whole “tomatoes are actually a fruit” thing. So are zucchinis and eggplants, but nobody ever brings that up. It’s always tomatoes.

There’s a botanical definition and a culinary definition. So, that doesn’t mean that somebody who calls a tomato a vegetable is wrong. And don’t put any tomatoes in my fruit salad!

So, it doesn’t sound like it would be useful for me, since the reason why I have separate partitions in the first place is so that I can re-install a distro or install a new distro without having to back up /home first.
