Oh my, that’s terrible. If anyone were to tell me however one could do something so dastardly, I would totally take active steps to avoid ever pirating the game.

Tbf, it depends. I just bought a pair of converse for 25 bucks. Granted they’re an unpopular color, but hey 25 bucks for a pair of chuck 70s is a good price.

Sounds like something a stalinist would say. Real communism requires the support the international proletariat, which can only be achieved through permanent revolution. Trotsky was on the money.

I sometimes wonder if these tech bros are truly oblivious to how stupid their ideas are, or if it’s a deliberate con intended to fleece tech-illiterate investors.

I suppose it’s a little of column A and a little of column B, but I do wonder which is more prevalent.

This isn’t Jason Aldean?

If there’s one thing I hate, it’s ppl sayin something should have been done yesterday.

Guess what, if should have been done yesterday, we’ve missed the deadline, we’ve already failed and might as wel write off the project.

The dude is right though. The most important part of being a programmer is designing an elegant solution. That requires talking the problem through, solliciting feedback, getting ideas… you meeting with ppl and talking to them.

The second most important part of being a programmer is realizing that you’re not doing this alone. Once again, you talking to colleagues to discuss what they can expect and when, likewise what you need and when.

Meetings are super important. Unless your a code monkey or if it’s office gossip or me having to spend an hour explaining why a job estimated to take 4 weeks will not be done next Friday. And no, “trying a little harder” or “realizing how important this to the client” isn’t going to change that.

I use a plate. But just the one plate. I had friends over a while back and had to wash my other plates before serving. They were covered with dust.

Writing documentation

I think there’s a difference between not knowing the UI and not understanding the tech.

E.g. in windows, you might not know which button to press to connect to the wifi, but you sure as hell understand that without an internet connection you can browse the web.

The latter is way more frustrating to deal with. Especially if it’s an older person who straight-up doesn’t want to know how it works.

I can see myself becoming a member of the former. Hope I never join the latter.

I assume it’s gimmick item. More art piece than commercial product

I’m on lemmy.ml. Ever since they defederated lemmynsfw, we don’t even have hookers.

Never show emotional weakness on grindr. The gays are savage. XD

I mowed my lawn today. Does that have flex potential?

My grandmother used to say: if you expect your good deed to be reciprocated, you’re not actually doing a good deed.

She said it in dutch, so I hope it’s an decent translation.

Tbh, reddit did win. They’re set to become a highly commercialized social media platform, focused on maximizing engagement through generic content.

They may lose dedicated eccentrics looking for a welcoming place to geek out over shit in their niche community. They’ll also lose users who value long in-depth discussions with complete internet strangers.

But, Reddit doesn’t want our need those people. As long as they have the generic subs (like r/funny, r/pics) and the outrage groups (like r/aita, r/publicfreakout), they’ll keep getting views and sweet sweet ad money. And that’s all Reddit cares about.

Is this a hardcoded opt out or something? Couple of months ago I had to install windows for a friend. I tried to not make a windows account. All the exploits I found, were “patched”. I finally just gave up and made the account. My friend doesn’t care enough about privacy and I don’t care enough about windows for all that effort.

But, no@thank.you would be awesome.

I know what he wants. I also know that I want candy.

Soapshover all the way. All the way.
