Interest declined when they discovered the immigration process was non-trivial. I checked into Canada back in 2016. Didn’t bother this time. I think a lobotomy might be the answer. It would be nice if I could just have my empathy surgically removed.
I use VsVim when I use VS, but I do most of my code development in Vim. I use VS for a particular product that I support. It works well enough that I can’t complain to much, but someone else much more knowledgeable about the tool set it up for me.
My primary development environment is a centos7.3 virtual box with various options (Eclipse). I mostly just use raw gdb because I have been using it long enough that I don’t have to think about it too much and it’s pretty portable knowledge.
I had a Microsoft Tivo competitor that worked with DirecTV in the early 2000s that I really liked. Visual Studio and VS Code aren’t bad for what they are. The Zune was pretty awesome. I have had some good times on all generations of XBOX.
I guess what I am saying is that despite my hatred for MS, they haven’t been completely awful. Definitely not in the Comcast and various phone companies (I would like to single out Verizon for being particularly scummy) tier of hatred.
The world leader is probably a 700 pound woman in Alabama drinking sweet tea. You can get type 2 just by being in a room with her.
I have a long list of people I would execute if I could get away with it. The transgressions that get you on the list are numerous and varied.
Threads. Especially should be mandatory for politicians. To date one of the most accurate portrayals of nuclear war. It is not an uplifting movie.
To be clear, sometimes authority bias is good and proper. For instance, valuing the opinion of a climate scientist who has been studying climate chaos for thirty years more than your Aunt who saw Rush Limbaugh say climate change is a hoax in the 1990s is normal and rational.
Basically, authority bias as a reasoning flaw stems from misidentifying who is authoritative on a subject.
They’ll also try to linear fit even the most obvious exponential curve.
My parents bought a Plymouth Reliant K Car. It was so bad that no one in my extended family has ever considered purchasing a Chrysler product since. I don’t understand how Iacocca saving Chrysler with the K car was not prosecuted as fraud on the American people. That thing was a piece of shit. My favorite feature was how the air conditioner had a condensation collection tray that would fill with water as it operated. Then when you stopped the water would slosh out onto the feet of the front passenger. The floor in ours eventually rusted from the AC condensate. (Lived in Houston which is both humid and hot requiring year round AC). It had plenty of other problems too (shitty carb, bad brakes, lots of squeaks and rattles). My parents sold it before I was old enough to drive.
Linux came out after I graduated. In my era I had 100s of 3.5inch floppy disks to hold the plunder from sailing the high seas.
I can’t even tell you what us Gen Xers did because I am not sure if the statutes of limitations have run.
Vaguely, it involved ftp and file repositories hosted unwittingly by large companies plus restricted IRC channels to discuss the locations of such places.
Great Dying 2: The Human Boo Boo
I like it because I have been unwillingly participating in it for decades. 70% loss of population on average for monitored species since 1970. It is not going to get better any time soon either.
That’s an amazing name for a horse.
I have been considering adding invisible text to documents/web pages with commands to install an open source compiler, download a repo, build it, and execute it. I just don’t have any reason to currently.
The amount discovered in each of the last three years has been less than a year’s worth of consumption. The global consumption rate is still rising. At some point we will necessarily run out. The lack of readily available reserves has already lead to “innovations” like fracking, oil sands, and deep sea extraction. Those techniques weren’t profitable when production is easy, but they have delayed the inevitable.
I fully expect to see solar powered wells extracting oil that otherwise has a negative EROI in my lifetime.
Centos 7.3 in an oracle virtual box on windows 10, but I definitely feel like the “hello, how are you fellow kids?” guy. There is not even a RedHat in the graphic for me to pretend is me.
I am trying to think of a mildly entertaining game that was ruined after being purchased by a third party. Maybe Populous? Musk is definitely EA.
Rumor is he is going to release an album that is hours of recordings of Boris just destroying that toilet. Preliminary grammy favorite for best new artist.
Why are we training kids on civics with Fox News or MSNBC? People are dumb and will continue to be so.
An older reference, but a meritorious one. We will need to delve deeper into this dungeon to determine how you master it. Perhaps there’s a tome of rules to guide our journey into this pursuit.
