There was a lot of publicity a few weeks ago about “the year long cruise” that ended. I haven’t tuned in, but apparently quite a few people on the cruise vlogged their travels. There were apparent conflicts, and with both sides wanting to say their part I’m sure more misery was shared publicly than one would normally air. This might just border on reality TV though, I haven’t really looked into it.

I wish somebody would donate Microsoft to the recycle bin

Now Russia will release 10k emails three days before an election like they did Hillary. Doesn’t matter if the emails are complete garbage and just ordinary business, the damage and chaos is still done.

Can you detail your VM setup? I’ve tried Windows 10 on several occasions using Qemu and VirtualBox and the UI lag has been complete ass, even after installing the driver packages for each VM host.

If I had to guess, it’s because of two things: windows creates a system restore point, which tracks every file the update touches, every time it installs an update (as opposed to something fast like ZFS or btrfs snapshots). Then it also keeps a prior version of anything system related on top of that, these outdated and insecure system libraries live on forever in the WinSxS folder. Imagine keeping an insanely bloated version of every system package installed, forever. I’ve seen WinSxS get to be over 80 gigabytes, of just old crusty shit.

JavaScript is so ass, typescript is just putting ketchup on a rotten banana. Better just to choke it down quickly if you have to eat it, IMO.

The explanations provided in this article are the same stupid fucking reasons it’s next to impossible and dangerous to ride a bike in America.

No, a bike is not a car and it should not be treated like one.

No, no one I know wants to hop on a bike and share the same lane as a semi truck or teenager in a lifted truck texting on a phone.

Having a bike lane (preferably separate from the main road) where there is at least some breathing room is the only way most people would even consider it. God forbid you should fall off or crash, you don’t risk losing your life over something that would otherwise be a scraped knee.

GTFO with your bikes are cars bull shit.

Yo dawg I heard you like translation and compatibility layers with your translation and compatibility layers

Found the escaped AI entity guys! It’s right here!

What republican rubbed his two incest loving neurons together this morning and shat out this terrible “meme”

Man these troll farm grunts are so insightful

The real dummy is the creator of this lame ass “meme” implying that you can bomb your way to victory

I believe you are thinking in terms of a Turing-machine-like computer. I don’t think it’s possible today to “suspend” the bits in a quantum computer. I also don’t think it’s possible to know if the simulation could be paused (or even “added to” without losing its initial state).

I’m sure there are other examples, but Android is definitely the first instance I encountered of big corps trying to use “open source” as a benefit only to poison pill their offering into a nearly useless corner. One of the many examples of Google torching their positive reputation over the years.

Maybe we need support for basic shit like file browsing and PDF viewing packaged with the OS? They still manage to make the OS require over 7 gigabytes of disk space, but can’t manage to squeeze this in?

Certainly not a spelling bee!

Bye Felicia

Iran ships shitty drones to Yemen and they use them against ships in an international shipping lane. This is a shitty PR piece that somehow tries to twist this ignorant play into some kind of amazing axis of power? How fucking dumb. If they are so powerful why doesn’t Iran just launch the drones? We all know the answer.

Funny, they’ll take all the money Russia or China can spend on democracy eroding ads but can’t even be used in those countries without being labeled a terrorist organization. Who the hell with an ounce of moral fiber works for Meta anyways?
