From the nothing I’ve become

She’ll get use to quickly. Our neighbour’s cats were like that at first, now they sit next to the charging pad like they own the place. They still get worried when it happens to be moving their way tho.

One of the nice things about Gmail at the time, was that you could access your emails when not home. If you were at a friend’s or on holiday at a net café, all you needed was to know your email and password.

That sounds silly, but at the time the majority of ISP mailboxes were pop only. Or those Webmails you could get were attached to what you would now think of comically small mailboxes. Full history Webmail added a convenience we didn’t get before.

“Our teams on the ground have checked the shipment packing process and carried out an inspection of the goods in our warehouse and have confirmed that all standard operating processes have been adhered to.”

Sure but if your standard procedure is to not give a shit, then you still did wrong. Very much a “we decided that we didn’t do anything wrong as that would look bad.”

Realistically early access launches are just launches. Some games get a boost and surge when they go 1.0, but the vast majority don’t. Using the ea tag may put more people off than the buggyness, and people forget about the game 3 years later when it hits 1.0. I think paradox knew about it and just decided it would reduce sales more then the bug reports would.

Don’t get me wrong I don’t think games with major bugs should be released as a 1.0 product if they are asking a high price. There are great games that started ea and became great, but it was a risk for them when they did that.

Sorry we can’t employ you as your ssn is too long. Also we can’t have any new employees called Mike Smith as the HR system already has someone with that name.

kids are just taught to wash their hands quickly under the hot tap, so that they don’t run the water long enough for it to turn scolding hot. WTactualF?

That’s a wtf within the UK as well, just fill the bowl with water using the taps to get the right temperature.

And then they just push a new commit without the files, completely unaware that git keeps all versions of the code? I feel like this repo is going to disappear.

I stay away from any big subs now. The smaller stuff that tends to have 2 to 15 posts a day (like game specific subs) feel like they did before. Although I really feel a lot of those are going to discord as well.

Which is fine when people do not reject the answers that are different from what they were expecting. Learning that the problem you have is a reason that noone does this, is a valid thing to learn.

It’s usually when I see people moving the goal posts on replies, or complaining that they didn’t answer the exact question that i see as frustrating. Or “I don’t want to do that” with no more info.

But if you are aware of other solutions, you should state that in the question and give your reasons. It’s a waste of time if you know someone might suggest what you have dismissed already.

The html question is a classic for this, they want to find non self closed tags. Why? Why can’t they use a parser? What are they doing with this info? All questions that would give you a good idea on how the problem can be solved. Playing with regex would be a valid answer to that, but is not stated. Unfortunately I find so’s format discourages extra interrogation.

The answer is not an attack on the person, but a frustration at the people before that ignored previous answers to use a parser.

Except in 99% of cases the person is asking an xy problem, and if they ever explained the why, they would get a proper answer.

Often the reason no one does the hyper-specific thing, is that there are better non code solutions, it’s massively insecure, or is just stupid micromanaging.

Seen this on the powershell subreddit before, it just downloads and runs another executable.

It was a way to get people talking about the update. If you argue for your favourite, you’re talking about it. The first one was a point when I think they wanted to show that the game was getting new content.

Yea I remember this being one of the suggestions for the stalker series. if the enemies are too hard, turn the difficulty up so they die faster.

Is mono not the .net framework version? .net core has always been multi platform, but is not compatible with .net framework apps. So any .net apps built against 3.5 or 4.x would still need to use mono.

Funny thing is I remember control panel being criticized for having things too many dialogs deep. Now you have more clicks when using settings instead of less.

Can’t they just send up extra suits with the dragon capsule? Badly fitted suits are probably better than none, it’s not like they are piloting it down.

Yep, depending on the version it was under either administrative tools or system tools option in control panel. It’s now also in the menu when you right click the start button.

You can now reach the network connections folder, using an option on the network status page. It’s something like advanced network options. Still all the classic stuff, but avoids “control panel.” I’m going to guess links like that are not going to be removed.

If they just outright remove all of that, you really will need to learn how to do everything in powershell.

Don’t feel bad, on my first flight I ran into the sun by accident.

Kept working on it and was rewarded with the rest of the game. For real I continued to die to spaceship piloting issues but it didn’t ruin the game for me.
