smeg,

I used to watch the same movie about every month or so back when I was growing up

I don’t think this is a technical limitation, I think young children really like repetition because their brains are still learning how to predict things

smeg,

Bambi?! WTF, why show that to kids?

To teach them about death as part of a story with a happy ending. I think that The Lion King does it better though as they’ve already been briefed on the circle of life.

smeg,

Be thankful you didn’t watch Watership Down

smeg,

I’m paying for the convenience of a tv-optimised android device. It’s relatively versatile in that you can install most android apps, but much more robust than trying to build something myself. And all I use it for is watching video so there’s not really much it can data-mine compared to something serious like my phone.

smeg,

Definitely, last time I used github’s one it could barely do more than push and pull. I’ll almost always use a (good!) UI over the git CLI though.

smeg,

A good UI (for you personally) should do all the things you regularly do. Git is a complex and messy enough beast that when I have to use the CLI I’m going off the golden path and copy+pasting something arcane.

smeg,

It’s not finding the terminal, it’s finding that you need to install xcode separately to configure or run things, or install brew for a proper package manager, or install third party tools to do basic actions like move windows around with keyboard shortcuts. It’s the “our way or the highway” attitude which drives a lot of how they design their software.

smeg,

Is that since the rise of WSL?

smeg,

It is, but not the way you think - you* don’t pronounce the L in either. Calm, palm, balm, farm, harm all rhyme.

*obviously you do, I speak nothing but the Queen’s!

smeg,

Seeing what people with different accents think rhymes is wild. Calm, farm and palm all rhyme but sound nothing like com or pom!

smeg,

Plenty of services still unfortunately rely on SMS for 2FA, so we’ll still need a client to receive them. Doesn’t really need to be able to send them though, I don’t think any human has sent an SMS message deliberately for about 12 years!

smeg,

My condolences. But seriously though, what if you want to have a group chat, or send a file?

smeg,

So how do you have group chats or send files with your non-Signal contacts?

smeg,

Trash

Do you mean the Recycle Bin?

smeg,

Trig is basically the study of a wiggly line and how it turns out to be useful everywhere

This package of bagels I bought expired on a date that doesn't exist. (i.imgur.com)

I originally posted this on the other site back when I took the picture, and it resulted in a lot of confused comments, especially from Americans, eventually getting removed by overzealous mods. Either way, I promise you that this date does not exist, and has never existed.

smeg,

I initially saw those pipes as a giant terminator hand

smeg,

I get your sentiment (that you don’t need to we wealthy to be happy), but most definitions of “poverty” aren’t just “not rich”, they’re more “unable to afford basic means”, which there is a lot wrong with!

smeg,

Oh I didn’t even see that someone had blurred “pussy”, at least that could be explained by OP being a child and wanting to share this in the family group chat. I meant the fact that the original creator used “fck”*, like anyone who doesn’t have to deal with broadcasting regulations would ever have a reason to pointlessly censor themselves.

smeg,

That’s the real reason I installed that camera under the seat

smeg,

That doesn’t look like a very big area for a dog

smeg,

Oh phew, I assumed dog was finding cat poo when out and about so I thought you were suggesting setting that up as a prison yard for dog to attempt to run around in!

smeg,

Successful people have massive heads, got it

smeg,

I know the author is Terrible Maps so I probably shouldn’t complain, but what are those continent colour groupings?
