This is the most boomer-y comment I’ve read in a while. I remember my parents saying shit like this about me and my NES.

The bassline outros in his TV show were funnier than the man himself.

Will having more troops in more cities make the Epstein files turn up faster?

I usually do it when we take over a customer’s access control system and we have half their doors on the new system and half in the old still and are migrating them over. I’m an electronic security tech, this is what I do for a living.

I use it at work to clone a customer’s proximity card when I work in their building so they don’t have to leave me theirs to get around. The one legitimate use I found.

I guess being able to trigger the customer service announcement without having to find a button in a store is nice.

I know exactly what would make me happy, the problem is the people who would make it their mission to make me as unhappy as possible in life for daring to try to be happy.

This is the dilemma I’m facing. Continue to masquerade as a man and have a somewhat “normal” life, or live as my authentic self and suddenly make life 100x harder having to live with transphobic shitheads out there because I know damn well I ain’t gonna pass.

Thank you!

Please tell me there’s a Shermanposting community on the fediverse.

You gotta put the sticker on lest you forget it’s even there, just being an OS and getting out of your way.

This analogy doesn’t really work because there are thousands of different wheels that all spin on an axis but are used for many different things. If the wheel was never reinvented or improved upon we wouldn’t have automatic transmissions, rocket engine turbo pumps, gyroscopes, etc.

Don’t put money in your mouth, it’s dirty.

I know exactly 0 people who are still watching over-the-air TV.

A history teacher in the 22nd century: “And that, class, is how we finally implemented UBI.”

Maybe. And I can’t blame it on not having had coffee when I made the comment. Just me being completely oblivious to a joke.

Or literally just look at its binary representation. If the least significant digit is a “1”, it’s odd, if “0”, it’s even. Or you can divide by 2 and check for a remainder.

Your method is just spending time grinding away CPU cycles for no reason.

Honestly, good. Getting sick of the “professional” world being so goddamn stiff and boring. Push back against sanitized corporate aesthetics.

You need to design a dystopian near-future tabletop RPG of some kind.

C++ because I use it for embedded systems, interfaces with and can easily use C code (opening up the ability to use 40+ years of libraries and already written code), and I’m 43 years old and don’t feel like learning an entirely new programming paradigm (I like OOP it makes the most sense to me).

I like being able to drill down and manage all my own resources like memory, etc. when I need to as well. I’ll use raw pointers with higher level abstractions all day depending on what’s convenient.
