Bro $10 and its not even real money??? You can’t buy anything for $10 on Uber Eats even if the coupon worked.

true true. If the general business pressures are not conducive to proper software release practices, no amount of programming skill can help them.

they seem extremely competent at writing bad software

lmao its a matter of time before MS decides they need to DDoS someone so hard their data center explodes and they’ll be ready to do it

Is this just Sony’s own production of consumer writable Blu-ray discs, or is it like, Sony preventing other manufactures from producing them as well?

I know at least duckduckgo says on their syntax page that they’re aware that operator usage isn’t perfect on their site. Seems to come from the fact that they pull results from multiple sources

well at least they know the rocket works now

This is anecdotal to me, but I remember going to the mall a whole lot as a kid cuz my mom liked shopping at the stores there. Nowadays, she still shops at the same stores, but usually through their own websites. For me, when I learned how to drive and could go to the mall myself, it was probably only to go to a place like Gamestop, since the one in the mall was the closest to me. Again, online shopping, and especially being able to download games through like, Xbox Live, the eShop (and Steam, but I wasn’t really into PC gaming until much more recently) was much more convenient than having to drive 20-30 minutes to the mall.

EDIT: Another thing I remembered is that a Target opened up closer to where I lived, so it just became more convenient to shop there for stuff like cheap clothes vs brand name places like H&M. They also sold stuff you couldn’t buy at the mall like groceries, so it was more enticing, i guess.

Recently I went back to the mall I grew up around and it was a lot more empty. One of the really big stores that was there when I was a kid was Sears and they’re gone now, and that mall had a TON of space dedicated to Sears. No one has come to lease that space. The mall has a sprawling parking lot that’s mostly empty now.

I remember as a kid there were always like, crazy extravagant displays at the mall around the Holiday Season, and things like raffles where you could win a new car or something, but I don’t think any of that has happened there in recent years to nearly the same scale.

I wouldn’t say this mall is completely dead yet (I visited a different mall that had like, maybe 5 stores open and a lot of converted office space in it on a Saturday afternoon and that was eerie and dead while still being open to the public), but I think its on its way out.

Those people you see on LinkedIn with like 20 programming languages on their resume are really looking for a job just to pay off the debt of buying 20 computers

guy has 12 children and probably talks to none of them in any sort of meaningful way

I like the plastic lids for fermenting food in mason jars, like sauerkraut. I find the metal ones tend to become really hard to open or corrode once the ferment has been going on for a while.

they could throw a pizza party for their government clients. Less work than fixing the problem

So instead of playing bad music, I can get ASMR while I’m on hold with my bank?

the bit about the experimental Hybrid MP4 is interesting. By fault-tolerant, I’m guessing they mean that if OBS crashes mid recording, your file isn’t just corrupted like it currently is with MP4 recording. Currently, MKV doesn’t have this problem, so thats the container I usually record in.
