That’s too bad. Apparently their holo lens was really good. But pricing it at $4000 meant most people weren’t interested.

Chevy is still all about knobs, which is the proper way to create car controls. Ford is pretty heavy into a full touch screen control center, which is really annoying as a driver.

You know what’s unsafe? Putting a long-ass disclosure about keeping your eyes on the road that you have to close before you can use your infotainment center. We know how to drive, dude. Adding a distraction doesn’t improve safety, it makes it worse.

“Here’s a website that you needed to install on your phone to see!”

I’m out of the loop. What happened? Did someone decompile their code and find definitive proof of a throttle for Firefox?

Also pushing pop-ups everywhere, except this time they’re part of the site and we can’t easily block them.

Try Real Debrid. It’s rare to not find something. Should you really not be able to find them, then the news servers are where you should head next. Just about anything ever made is on nzb. You’ll need to pay some money and do a little learning, but the Usenet is pretty rad once you figure it out. It’s a lot easier now than it used to be too. They have clients that will search, download, unpack, and assemble, all at the click of a button. But like I said, Real-Debrid+Stremio+Torrentio is amazing.

I do only have one account with them now. They’re a terrible platform these days if you want an anonymous spam account. They were good back in the day because they offered 10x the storage as everyone else, and we hadn’t fully comprehended the scope of their snooping. My only email address with them now is used as a corporate spam address, since it’s completely overrun with spam anyways, after 20+ years of use.

It was disappointing. I had uber1337 and lost it due to them refusing to let me log back in. That name doesn’t mean much now, but it was pretty l33t back then.

Edit: I guess it’s actually a pretty stupid name now that there’s a taxi company named Uber. Cool, I just made peace with losing that account. Haha!

They wouldn’t let me log into a couple of accounts despite having the password, saying that I hadn’t used it for awhile and they couldn’t verify I was the account owner. Since there was no recovery email set, which was intentional because it was supposed to be an anonymous account, and none of the other information I set was real, they said they can’t verify me and won’t let me log in. They’re pretty insistent that passwords alone aren’t acceptable, even when you use all of your real information. Go try to log into Google on a new device from a new location and see what a huge PITA it is.

It’s not the first time. Besides, they won’t even let you log into old accounts that don’t have recovery emails and real names set. I lost a couple of really good usernames from the beta era after they rolled out all of their account protection practices. A password isn’t good enough for Google.

It’s not a bug. It’s them running A/B tests to completely block mobile users that aren’t on the app. They’ve been implementing different versions of this for over a year now. They always lie about what it was. Actually they pretty much habitually lie about all of their tests and changes.

And those are enormous advantages. It will also get you a lot more jobs. I see Java jobs everywhere. I barely see C job postings at all.

JavaScript. I can’t think of anything else that can be used for everything. It’s a back-end language, a front-end language, it can be used for styling and animation, it can be an OOP language or a scripting language, and can make database queries & submissions. Is there another language that is as versatile for website development? I can’t think of one.

If you’re using Nord VPN then you can enable a kill switch directly in the VPN through a console command which is documented on the Nord docs. It works, I tested it.

Haha!

especially long time users - expect things to be where they used to be

Moving advanced settings around is incredibly frustrating for users. Especially now how they have settings in multiple different places, but they do slightly different things. The POs that design these things are weirdos.

Right? Oh, you need 5 hours worth of work done 1 hour before the end of the day on Friday? It sounds like you should have planned better. Have a nice weekend!

It’s not my computer, so I can’t do that. Interesting looking project though.

I like the way they look. It makes the code more pleasant to read for me.

I haven’t used Windows in about 3 years and have never used Windows 11, so I guess my statement is out of date. They pushed me beyond my limit with their constant O365 advertising about 3 years ago and I switched full time to Linux. I use a MacBook Pro for work.

It’s bullshit how the entire OS keeps trying to force you into saving everything to OneDrive when you’re just trying to save a file to your hard drive. They’re bordering on dark patterns with how they try to trick people.

The only font I’m interested in for Code is one that has ligatures. Otherwise I’m fine with whatever.

Facebook lies all the time. Why would anyone believe anything they say?

Practice! Frequently take on tasks that are above your skill level and then learn to do them while you’re doing them.

I have one purely for a spam email address that I rarely check. I just needed to get off of big brother Google’s platforms and I wanted something easy to say and type.

$12?!?! When was this meme made?

“Buy our ink now or we’ll kidnap your baby”

No, it couldn’t. People who didn’t use adblockers aren’t going to suddenly start using them just because YouTube started blocking adblockers. People who didn’t use adblockers aren’t impacted at all, nothing has changed for them.

Google doesn’t give a shit what their advertisers think. It’s not a “please buy our ads” situation, it’s a “where else would you advertise online, you stupid fuck?” type of situation.

Temba, his arms wide!

That’s heckin cool. I’ll see if I can find that interview.

I was really worried that it wouldn’t hold up, but it does! It holds up well.

I just mean that the style of the movie is heavily copied by John Wick.

Speaking of movies from the 90s, we just watched The Crow on Halloween (Devil’s) night, and that movie is definitely a John Wick prequel.

Hodgins says he was offered a C$2,000 flight voucher by the airline

Sorry we utterly humiliated you and ruined your anniversary trip. Here’s some coupons.

Idk about where you live, but here you take it down to the dump and pay $35 to dispose of it if you can afford it. If you can’t afford it you sneak behind a box store at night and dump it in their dumpster.

Ah, little Bobby Drop Tables.

Isn’t all hosting containerized at this point?

No. Not even close.

PHP is a server-side language, how do you plan to use it for the front-end? Good luck with that!
