You are awesome.

Lemmy is better for you being here. Thanks for the reading material!

I’m just going to assume those 4 dollar words are real and you aren’t just misspelling normal words to fuck with us.

Non surjective free magma? What about the doblastic amortized basalt?

Killing the first one probably won’t any more than killing a single mouse doesn’t stop an infestation, but once the mice realize that you got a couple of cats they will find the exit.

That’s why you need to put traps by the exit too, the mice know too much and might potentially regroup to return with better tactics. You’ve got to get them all in one swift purge.

That just goes with a territory of having an iPhone. When you bought that device you signed on to a culture of consumption that is enforced by the developer of that device.

The developer can’t force Apple to let the developer give it to you for free. Apple doesn’t tolerate free very well and anything that is free on Apple is likely either a privacy nightmare or is paid for by some subscription you have with Apple.

This isn’t a problem with the app It’s a problem with the Apple.

The series has a very satisfying conclusion.

It’s one of the coolest fucking things we watched this last year.

My hourly rate for tutoring is actually about 50% higher than my hourly rate for on call support which is about 100% higher than my hourly rate for work.

I’m trying to afford groceries here, It’s not 90 days payable It’s pay-per-play. I’m tired of trying to finance an inhaler while the boss’s favorite child can’t decide on a font color and thinks that 5 minute phone calls at 7:30 on a friday are free.

Am the grammar an spelling part of joke?

My father used to make fun of me for saying that I could hear the TV on even if it was muted, or that I could hear the furnace ‘scream’ before it came on.

One year, I got as a gift for Christmas, a handheld recorder and a fancy microphone from my stepfather a university music professor And that recorder could actually record the sound which he was able to show me on the computer.

That was like 25 years ago, I’ve been working with computers ever since, and now I am familiar with many many many devices that make high pitch whines.

If I could get Apple devices in an open compatibility I wouldn’t hate them I probably still wouldn’t buy them though.

My hatred comes from the fact that I believe critical thinking and mental flexibility are very important skills for people to develop at a very young age. I think one of the most important avenues for the development of reasoning and technical skills is through interaction with technology.

That technology should encourage and reward your curiosity. Apple does not reward curiosity or encourage it, it taxes it to such a degree that Apple users are by and large technologically illiterate.

I grew up on Apple computers, and when I was little the Mac nerds we’re doing some pretty cool and impressive shit with their Mac tech that you just can’t do now. It was a gateway to me learning about a lot of this technology, but they are a walled garden now, and it gets worse every year.

A large part of my job is helping young people and seniors learn how to use technology. Apple makes that much more difficult because Apple stuff only works the Apple way none of it translates to any other technology.

Whenever I talk to somebody who doesn’t know what a folder is, what a browser is, that when they download files they go to a place, how to share content with non Apple users, how to use non Apple software, how to use any other non Apple technology, its because Apple wants it that way. I just don’t understand why a company this abusive would have fans.

It’s like being a fan of Microsoft, Google, Amazon, Wells Fargo, or The Pinkertons. You are paying extra for fashion accessories that are objectively lower spec and with a reduced feature list than the alternative that is cheaper. The only benefit of Apple devices is the security, And that’s easily bypassed because they don’t need to compromise the device to get your information from Apple.

All of the data harvesting of Android TV can be blocked with ease. None of the closed ecosystem, price gouging, or feature rot of Apple devices can be worked around in any way.

If you’re content with the limited offerings available on Apple devices and the exorbitant prices you have to pay to get access to them then by all means continue to fund that nightmare company and it’s war on consumers.

Don’t buy apple’s expensive garbage. If you are thinking about getting some Apple TV device you should get a shield, an Android TV, even a raspberry pi 4b would be better than bending over for apple.

Just stop giving that fucking company your money.

The energy cost to build the car in the first place will never be offset by the usage it will see. You personally might be saving on fuel costs but the energy it costs to refine and build those things taken together with the opportunity cost of what doesn’t get built because of the limited supply of resources needed to make those batteries and the whole thing becomes much more of a gray area.

Electric cars aren’t here to save the planet they’re here to save the car industry.

More arcade style multiplayer hack and slash RPG stuff in the spirit of gauntlet dark legacy or even something that stretches the concept like Armada 2 and makes it a space-based drop-in drop out multiplayer free-for-all frenzy that’s just for fun.

A lot of them are shorthand for phrases that exist in other programming languages. If you watch the whole video you can see him type things like match to get the ≅ or something like that I don’t know I didn’t follow at all It’s pretty heady shit.

Really dig in her heels on the idea that 50% is not equal to 1/2. Thinking she must be joking I wrote a two-page proof explaining all of the reasons why 50% is equal to 1/2 and she was more than a little bit mad at me for not letting it go…

I ended up having to appeal to her department chair who walked into the room during my class, sat down at her computer, changed my grade on that test, and said to her, “I really shouldn’t have had to come down here to do this myself. I don’t want to have to come down here again. I’m asking you to drop it.”

She didn’t say another word for the rest of that class period and was not in school the next day. For the life of me I can’t understand what the fuck she was thinking was going to happen. Math doesn’t recognize opinions or authorities outside of math and she should have known that.

It’s poorly optimized code, and the comments from the top brass has been “lol your PC sux” when they can’t even get it running right on their own hardware.

It’s not the variations of PC that’s the issue, it’s a design and quality control issue. Direct X and Vulkan are the bread and butter of PC gaming. Microsoft developed direct X to establish a common graphics framework for Windows and Microsoft game studio still fucked up working with it.

1 pound telekinesis in my line of sight. You won’t be opening any safes or stealing anyone’s gun, but you can do plenty of incredible stuff with even the weakest supernatural power.

I think I would be robbing casinos and thumbing the scale all over the place. It doesn’t take much to make marginal opportunities into steady gains if you can cheat physics and break probability.

The lil Wayne stuff is so strange. Usually when some specific celebrity pops up in my feed I assume their publicist is rehabbing their image after some public incident or recently exposed private conflict. YouTube shorts isn’t like that.

YouTube shorts seems to be exclusively just a pipeline to rightwing talking points and the unfunniest parts of stand up comedy framed to serve the same rightwing pipeline.

You tried your best and you failed miserably! The lesson is: never try.
