It's trying its best, okay?

Asexuals: "Guess I'll just die then."

If you look at enough rocks, you're bound to find one that resembles something humans would make.

This, however, is not one of those rocks.

I hate that so much. Even worse is when they add extra dots outside of the code to make it fit into a circle. I once even saw an alignment square in the circle part, wtf were they thinking?

I've been without service since around noon, I guess this explains why. Hopefully they get it fixed soon.

Also make sure you have file extensions enabled in Explorer, it makes it waaay harder for something like this to work.

So you're saying there's a chance?

The cheeky option:

tar -h

Or is it tar --help? Oh no...

I see images, audio, or video files distributed in zips far too often. You're getting maybe a percent of compression if you're lucky; just distribute the raw files or use a non-compressed bundle format like tar.

I wonder whether buying "smart" TVs, flashing "dumb" firmware onto them, and selling them at a slight markup would be a viable business model. I guess you'd be at high risk of being sued, even if it's entirely legal.

Oops my hand slipped and I accidentally torrented all my favorite shows!

Even if they are, they'll still be nowhere as big or shine as brilliantly as the ISS does. I'll miss watching it soar overhead. :/

One word: Linux.

Valve's contributions have singlehandedly revolutionized the Linux gaming scene. They're the only reason I can play most of the games I own. I don't worship them, exactly, but I do think very highly of them.

A bit over two months ago. I try to go through my password manager to change all my passwords and clean up unused accounts a couple times a year.

I'd like to see Linus's response if anyone tried to enshittify the kernel.

As I understand it Apple is fairly good privacy-wise (at least compared to others). I wouldn't 100% trust those cards, but I'm guessing they're pretty accurate.

Every time you use hand sanitizer, you're slaughtering billions of innocent bacteria! We must stop using it at once!

The water simply vanishes, consumed by the AI's ever growing need for H Y D R A T I O N. /s

You could get a new battery from a known good source (or light a couple on fire to make sure they're not explosive). It should be relatively easy to check the rest of the components for anything near a dangerous amount of explosive, and the body can be replaced with a custom one and/or subjected to the fire test.

Really good book, one of my favorites.
