I think he made that up after the fact once it became abundantly clear how dumb hyperloop was. US states, generally, don’t need the help of a billionaire to stay car-brained public transport deniers.

Isn’t part of that just due to the fact that it’s a war economy?
I’m assuming you own these machines and are forced to pick them open because you lost the key
That definitely would be my assumption. Otherwise it would be stealing from the land-lord, hoo boy, we wouldn’t want that would we?
The problem with the anti-SJW grift was always that there were like 5 videos of 3 different activists that kept going through re-runs, at the end of the line there wasn’t enough fuel for the fire of outrage that it fed upon.
As a Dutch guy, I just can’t relate. Not that I needed extra reasons not to emigrate to TERF island, but this would definitely be one of them if I did.
Tibetan funerals actually involve feeding you to the birds. Which is not to say ‘turning your dead skull into a relic’ isn’t intended to be disrespectful.
Support for victims of genocide, if they are recipients of pell grants and operate a business in a minority neighbourhood for at least two years.
Being able to swim when stationed on a ship sounds way more useful than it actually is. In a ‘man overboard’ situation, it doesn’t help you much, you get fucked by the inertia of a massive ship that can’t just turn around and pick you up. By the time they manage to turn around the ship, the real problem is actually finding you. Even if you’re an excellent swimmer, your chances of survival are very low.
mfw Windows still doesn’t come with a package manager
I’m not a Windows-head (never owned a Windows PC), but MSI’s seem to quack and waggle like a package. If you mean “they don’t have a central repository”, yeah, unless if you count their appstore or whatever they call it.
Wanting to ask a girl out but having to talk to her parents first to get her on the line.
Come to Quark’s, Quark’s is fun, come right now, don’t walk. Run!
We have two Christmas Days, on December 25 and 26. For people in relationships that usually means one day celebrating with your parents, and the other with your inlaws. Lately a lot of people have started observing an unofficial third Christmas Day on the 27th to celebrate with friends.
The sad thing is, this isn’t even a shocking up-set. The Netherlands has been flirting with right-wing populists ever since the rise of Pim Fortuyn. And PVV was already getting a significant number of seats in previous elections. The balance was now just slightly changed because the neoliberal right in the form of VVD fucked up governing so hard that a fair number of liberal votes that used to go to them ended up getting split between neoliberal center-right (NSC) and neoliberal center-left (GL-PvDA).
In somewhat better news, other chud-adjacent parties (FvD, BBB) also didn’t really perform well. Which means any extreme agenda items PVV may have aren’t going to survive a coalition.
They should probably try one of those ‘inspirational’ duty-free pieces of muzak you find under a typical kickstarter marketing campaign. You know what I mean. Handclaps and some dude whistling over sparse piano chords.
This is valid late 90’s critique on Windows. In the modern day, it’s valid critique on the entire state of computer software. There used to be a time where I could run “ps axuw” on a then modern Unix system and understand exactly what the fuck was going on and what each process was for. These days the nerd-favoured systems are also a big mess of complexity.
I think a lot of older nerds also under-appreciate the position tech has taken in the world in the meantime. Look at it like electricity. When that first popped up, people involved with it knew all the ins-and-outs, they -had- to know all the ins-and-outs. But by the time I grew up, electricity was a done deal. You flip the button, lights go on. Same has happened for the rest of the world with IT. You click the icon, facebook pops up.
LinkedIn pivoting as a VPN provider confirmed. Bet they figured they could never compete with X, the everything app.
Is this actually Linux gaining any significant new mindshare, or is it just that the use of desktops is in relative decline, and the holdouts are going to be the more linux-inclined?
Australia does that, it’s policy.
There are more things that Australia does, as policy. Most of them are not cool and good. Not saying this is one of those, just that on its own it’s not a great argument.
After being hated by gamergate chuds for over a decade, she pulls this shit. I have to assume that being loathed is just a fetish at this point.
