Yep, that one where the person on the peak starts lecturing you in abstract terms about trying the simplest hypotheses and such, while you are trying to solve their problem.
I know the philosophy part that asshole is talking about, only he has no bloody clue which part is simple and which is not here.
It was a hang port on a switch in that case.
People who write screen broke shouldn’t be working with technology more advanced than a shovel
Shovel gay, pen have, paper end, rock good.
Google some sites, visit some empty IRC channels, dream of the future for a bit, then turn it off
I’m using ipv6 when I occasionally connect to Yggdrasil.
And I think I’ll use ipv6 if we ever need to build a new earthnet.
It’s a fine technology.
So why is there no competition arising, simply with some fries, burgers, soda and without this bullshit.
Oh, I remembered, it’s all patented to hell. It’s practically illegal to open a fast food place not in one of these franchises.
Same with many other areas of life. The Web and computers are the most obvious.
Rats and cockroaches have conquered the kitchen. While many people in bureaucracies and everywhere were thieves and parasites, that still wasn’t socially acceptable. They didn’t like it, so now it’s almost official that the world is ruled by thieves and parasites and they are better than honest people. This IMHO also explains all the “geopolitical” stuff happening - it’s not to any practical end, the common thing between all (Western\Russian\whatever) policies is ideological, that decency should be murdered, dignity should be punished, and honesty should be poisoned. All the “rules” and “competition” and “civilization” stuff was (in the eyes of those people) being grown like livestock to be slaughtered for meat eventually.
300 years from now this time is going to be called the start of the new dark ages, or the end of the thaw (Soviet analogy here), or something like that.
May have something to do with computers as they exist being defined by male psychology. Well, it’s understandable why swords, guns, rockets are, and same with computers.
Basically sending instructions to change state. I don’t know how can a computer exist which doesn’t work like this and is still usable for the humanity, but this seems to be psychologically a bit more of a male thing. Maybe there’s nothing problematic for women but aesthetics there.
If it’s something deeper, then maybe some analog optical\quantum\whatever computers of the future will push us to change paradigms for some drastic change in efficiency. And maybe those new paradigms will be more appealing to women.
The past of these great breweries is nothing more than a tool for the marketing team to increase sales numbers. Which is definitely a shame.
I like that actually - big things wither, small things conquer. And small things are personal, so things with soul are stronger than things without it.
When you have built a brand reputation, you don’t have to care about actual quality.
I think it was good beer 100 years ago.
Maybe we’ll see orgmode format take the place in the sun it deserves
Maybe just advise her to learn piano. Does wonders to one’s typing habits.
For smaller docs try Abiword. If you are a KDE user, Calligra is nice.
I’m 28, do that too. Though maybe that’s what you meant by older.
I happen to be a Firefox user
I happen to be a former conkeror user, which was based on XULRunner, which Mozilla dropped, just like other ways to use their engine for other browsers.
But I could use pre-Australis Firefox.
Only then their experiments on people with UI design happened.
And yes, Mozilla as an organization has objective flaws. Their treatment of the SeaMonkey project (now separate) has not been good as well.
I personally just don’t like people calling it AI. It’s not.
I remember that what you are describing was already present in the “open web” of old.
You’d come to some place “openly”, but then (in case of RP forums)
until you’d write a long character description and discuss it with mods for long, you wouldn’t be allowed to post in most parts of that forum, and
until you had chatted over ICQ with a few people from that forum and knew who they are and they knew who you are, you wouldn’t be really welcome, people would just ignore your posts.
You would come to a place quite socially, not unlike IRL meetings. It wouldn’t be FB or Google confirming your registration and giving you right to post, it would be a real person you were going to communicate with later.
And maybe I’m not that asocial\autistic\etc, if that was fine with me back then and what’s now isn’t. Maybe I’m just afraid of silent eyes and silent hands managing my social interactions, which is sane.
It wasn’t really IE-only. People sort of could use Netscape, and then Mozilla, and then Firefox. And Opera which wasn’t free.
And it was so fast, awww. And had a built-in BitTorrent client which didn’t suck balls and didn’t feel excessive.
And all that caching.
What I don’t get is why hasn’t there been a split yet. Not like Seamonkey, but from major developers of FF.
There’s a structural problem - it may be beneficial for companies as some coherent entities to provide such a service, but for individuals inside them, like various kinds of sales, management and so on, it’s not.
In every case where such an elusive thing as potential popularity of something conflicts with a less elusive thing like control they have in streaming services, the latter wins. Because what makes its makers rewarded on their job wins.
What I don’t understand is why they lie about something directly causal to the resolution.
