100% they all leave after to the party to continue their assylum claims.

I agree that cloud storage is a rental scheme and not comparable, but an old sata disk here is 240Gb for £24 which is equivalent to 10c per Gig. If you go back to abandoned formats like ide hard disks you may be able to get 0.01 per Gb.

Maybe you should join the force and change it positively from the inside.

Wine runs on Windows as is a good way to emulate some Windows 98 apps that no longer work in Windows 11 I’ve been told.

There’s one good reason to vote for Trump: he’s got a head start on Kamala since he has all the classified files in his house.

I’d smash that baby out the park. One way ticket to see Jesus.

I’ve used Debian stable daily for 20 years.

When I was young and passionate about Linux there were lots of things that were behind and noticible. Notably big things like KDE with obvious graphical features that I could see I was missing out on.

After a few years I stop finding any excitement in upgrading at all. I became critical of pointless features and rewrites. KDE is worse if anything.

In the last 5 years there has been stuff I’ve wanted that’s existed outside the project. Docker when it came out, Wireguard. I just ended up waiting.

The only software I run outside the repositories atm is neovim and that’s because I want to use the latest Scala-metals IDE tool. That itself is becoming more stable though.

My favourite is when god says “let there be light” a couple of days before he creates the sun and stars.

It reminds me of a referees uniform, so the vibe is “I have no opinion I just obey laws of natural selection”

Yeah basically.

Without knowledge of good and evil how can you avoid evil acts? You can’t.

A leap year is every 4 years, but not every 400 years. If you could only vote on Feb 29 you’d have gone 8 years without a vote between 1996 and 2004.

I wonder that billion pounds are to do with AWS Services because the only alternative is Microsoft lock in.

This is so believable. You copy a few examples out of a textbook using cout and cin and it seems reasonably inline with other languages.

Batman in an interrogation room pins joker to the wall.

Batman: “I’ve only got one rule”

Joker: “Then that’s the rule you’re gonna have to break to get what you want”.

Now I hate Marvell and all super hero movies but I do find that quote applies to a lot of things.

If you’re truthful or law abiding then law breakers have an advantage on you. They’ll try and undermine free and fair elections.

If you’re a pacifist then people will use violence to try and control you, such as terrorism, or simply ignore your laws.

If you have socialism then people will pour in from other countries or try to exploit the system in whatever they can.

If the police or strict or lax in either direction it causes upset.

Whatever you say is a law, or a line you won’t cross, is something that people will exploit.

If the money isn’t real, how did Liz Truss crash the UK economy?

I used to work in Amesbury very near this site and I can tell you this completely unnecessary.

Sure fix the potholes but 2bn for 2 miles of duel carriage way that ultimately won’t speed up journeys between London and the shitholes on the A303 (eg. Salisbury) just aren’t worth it.

You gotta walk your own path.

Most people know exactly what they have to do to obtain a skill, start a business, make a friend, experience and adventure but simply don’t out of fear of the unknown.

The Internet is helpful but you got to put stock in your own lived experience.

No one cares and this will literally never be a talking point.

Trump beat Biden in a debate so badly, Biden dropped out. Trump now gets to say “dems are weak and messing you around with weak leadership” and “you don’t know who you’re electing with Harris”. I’m the safe choice since I’ve already been the Pres.

Like this is a huge win for Trump. He smashed Hilary, then he smashed Biden and you really think Harris will fair better? Like it’s some extreme copium.

Saying “he’s old, ha ha got you by your own standards” just makes you look foolish. Like you don’t have any positive points about Harris to make. Any real firepower against Trump. It’s actually cringe to think any Republican won’t just laugh you out of the room for that.

As a programmer, a smoker and coffee drinker, I can tell you that this technique actually works!
