  Hey, thats just like my printer

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I wonder what game they're trying to play⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  And a flared base, of course.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft revokes cloud services from Israel’s Unit 8200⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Can’t tell if this entire thread is just people busting my balls or just shills for corpos

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Those who are hosting on bare metal: What is stopping you from using Containers or VM's? What are you self hosting?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I just imagine what the output of any program would be. Follow me, set yourself free!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨hyperbaric oxygen chamber⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Maybe, but that’s neither here nor there. We can’t draw that correlation to effects of oxygen on the body via respiration.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨9 months after its 1.0 launch flopped, an indie dev just learned that Steam never emailed the 130,000 people who wishlisted its game⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  And the numbers are ridiculous - 100 out of 87000 is ~0.1% - I’m sad that this dev’s project got kneecapped on release, but Steam is making things right here. An actual asshole move would be to have said nothing and done none of the things they’re doing now to make up for the loss. The 24 hour visibility boost should have been a bit longer though. Somewhere between 3 and 7 days sounds better.

  Either way I hope the dev team recoups their losses and more with the millions of eyes that their game gets now.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Friends are a bloatware.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That is one of the funkiest ways to spell “reliable” I’ve ever seen. Were you trying to type in the dark?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are you guys using to sort and name music?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Thanks, I noticed that clicking on an artists name now took you to their About page. Can’t find the artist’s top songs anywhere or atleast I can’t find them. Rage.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are you guys using to sort and name music?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Hey, OOTL here, what spotify nonsense ar eyou referring to here?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What does it mean if I’m the first person my former friend turns to?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I am alternating between glee at imagining how that would go and dread at the possibility that this poor person will decide to not do that and keep hurting themselves 😁😰

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Sextortion with a twist: Spyware takes webcam pics of users watching porn⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ice obtains access to Israeli-made spyware that can hack phones and encrypted apps⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Hope your high horse can get a job and feed your family when you lose your government career over an edgy Modern Warfare 3 chat lobby

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ice obtains access to Israeli-made spyware that can hack phones and encrypted apps⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  30 characters is like five words. Entirely doable. You can take your favorite TV show, sort character names by some logic and mispell a few of them to make a very strong very long password.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bruh⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes, there are several documentaries online, or so I’ve heard

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bruh⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Thousand Yard Stare

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Apple accuses former Apple Watch staffer of conspiring to steal trade secrets for Oppo⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  They don’t. Anybody that does this is marked for life by every side - Apple as well as Oppo, as an unreliable, non-trustworthy personality. If Oppo promised him some position in their company it will be provided as a dunce seat just long enough for other potential IP thieves to think “Hey, this guy seems to have it figured out, I should steal secrets for Oppo!”, and after that reasonabke time period he’ll be buried in some godforsaken back room until he quits.

  Traitors are marked wherever they go.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨anons brother has some strong opinions⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Well stone lasts forever barring someone turning big stones into little stones. So I think stone might still come out on top

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ponder not the Demoncore⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Same thing I was thinking of. At this point might as well slap their schlongs on it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨U.S. government takes 10% stake in Intel, as Trump expands control over private sector⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t think the souls of the damned are up for grabs, since, you know, they’re damned and all.

  God put a downvote on his forehead and now he is cursed to wander the earth

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Incident⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  In their defence looking through the black bars reveals that there are multiple caretakers collectively taking care of the children, so it becomes necessary to track what care has already been given to the kids so all the adults can coordinate.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨GitHub is no longer independent at Microsoft after CEO resignation⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Hey have you considered lakefs based solutions for backups? I think you can set the retention rules up so that only backups upto so many months are retained and the rest are removed. That way only the diff in the backup files need to be uploaded.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨GitHub is no longer independent at Microsoft after CEO resignation⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  It is laughably easy to fake those green squares that for a while, ages ago, I had some commit counts like 14000 or so… every single day.

  There are so many tools to also fake human like commit counts for those pretty green squares that if I came to know of my senior engineers hiring on that basis, their estimation as interviewers in my eyes would take a nosedive.

  I’ve seen this in use already in several youtube channels

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨xkcd #3125: Snake-in-the-Box Problem⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I feel like the answer should be much simpler than that equation salad.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Imagine not being able to shower, because AI slop generator machines need that water!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I disagree. I think the biggest consumers of AI currently use it for work, and depending on the type of work I think very fast ai == more customers.

  Do you think the pearly gates have one of those “You must be THIS high to ride” signs outside?

  Hi, I was considering samsung as an option. Could you please tell me why you dont like samsung? I’m looking for cons but review sites only want to sing praises.
