They already have a solution for that. They want to change it to say "no more than two consecutive terms.

Also, she’s an actress. What she/they want to show on TV might be a slightly different standard.

8GB ram though.

Arguable

Oh, I was talking about GitHub copilot that’s in visual studio.
- Comment on Sam Altman Thanks Programmers for Their Effort, Says Their Time Is Over 3 weeks ago:
I’m usually just very targeted in what I ask it to do. I keep it to things I know will be in the basic reference books or on stack overflow. It basically just saves me from having to look up and apply existing examples to my code.
It makes for a pretty good ORM.

Generally it’s hidden, but there are a number of caveats as JRaccoon says.
It’d be good to know which instances proxy images and which don’t. It’d also be nice if some of this was controlled by your client if using an app.
It’s also fairly easy to end up on another instance. And any articles you click on will take you to a domain that collects your IP.

Copilot isn’t bad, but generally I agree.
It’s a tool that can be helpful, or you can just create problems for yourself down the road.
It’s a lot like building a house. After all the drywall is up, it’s hard to tell if the studs are 18 inches apart or five feet apart, but you’re gonna find out eventually.
- Comment on ‘Pokémon Go’ players have been unknowingly training delivery robots 3 weeks ago:
You guys agree and it’s just the word “subsidy” he has an issue with because subsidies have the connotation of helping actual people.

We’re gonna need this “requires Internet connection” bit to be in reviews.
- Comment on I built a self-hosted period tracker because I couldn't find one worth using 4 weeks ago:
Ignorance, fear, or are you just following the kid’s trend of anti-ai, pushback against corporate desperation?
- Comment on I built a self-hosted period tracker because I couldn't find one worth using 5 weeks ago:
It’s not realistic to expect no AI assistance in coding in 2026.
It’s also not a stand-in for a human. There’s a huge field of gray where it’s unclear how much of it was fully vibe coded vs how much is carefully hand reviewed and/or written.
I’ve been a professional developer for decades and I’ve done both. Obviously I’ve hand coded stuff for many years. The fully vibe coded stuff is personal, to test and learn the capabilities of the tech. My professional stuff I watch much more closely, and I’m much more targeted in what I’m having the AI do.
That said, if I were gonna use this I’d actually review the code. I’m not recommending this guy’s stuff, but you can’t rule it out on the basis of ai assistance alone.

Omnissa is a registered trademark of VMWare. They’ll be around to collect royalties shortly.
- Comment on The Pentagon’s Claude Use in Iran Is a Reminder that Anthropic Never Objected to Military Use 5 weeks ago:
It’s not a very solid point. They said they may become necessary at some point, but right now they’re irresponsible.
They’re not ruling it out in the future, but their focus is on today’s problem.
- Comment on The Pentagon’s Claude Use in Iran Is a Reminder that Anthropic Never Objected to Military Use 5 weeks ago:
I mean, yeah. They’re the only ones trying to hold out some reasonable constraints.
- Comment on bold words 5 weeks ago:
You buy 5 bitcoins for $450 each in 2016. It’s what you can afford. You sell them for $10,000 each in 2018, timing it decently just before a bigger drop.
Congrats on your $48k.
- Comment on Forgive me, Doctor, for I have sinned: I haven't watched anything Trek in almost 2 months 5 weeks ago:
It’s a teen drama mostly aimed at teens, but with a sex scene.
- Comment on Forgive me, Doctor, for I have sinned: I haven't watched anything Trek in almost 2 months 5 weeks ago:
Watch episode 6, skip the rest.
- Comment on oh no 1 month ago:
It’s perfectly logical. The Sun is loud as shit. Or it would be if there was air to transmit the sound.
- Comment on We got more games and better games when there was less money being made in the industry. 1 month ago:
People still play this one. mud.arctic.org
Though I didn’t mean it has to necessarily be text-based. More that that ancestral path was more interesting than the WoW one. This is what EverQuest was born from.
One of the bigger differences is that not everything was questing. You just explored, and part of your motivation to level up was the ability to explore places that were previously inaccessible.

Here’s a free one for you.
Discard pretty much anything learned from or after World of Warcraft. That game warped the genre for decades, largely for the worse.
Go back to MUDs. Iterate from there.

“find an actual progressive” aka 3rd party
lol no. You don’t get to strawman and then be a rude piece of shit about it.
- Comment on Stephen Colbert says CBS didn't air Rep. James Talarico interview out of fear of FCC 1 month ago:
Subservience to the FCC and the administration is the excuse. The real reason is that David Ellison is afraid the dem might win.
The majority owner of CBS is Paramount Global, which itself is controlled by Skydance Media, a company led by David Ellison (son of Larry Ellison), following a significant acquisition of the Redstone family’s stake in mid-2025.
- Comment on Stephen Colbert says CBS didn't air Rep. James Talarico interview out of fear of FCC 1 month ago:
Either that or it’s exactly what it says on the tin. I wonder which is more likely.

Thank you. I was just thinking that someone needs to grab this, and it was going to be a pita if I had to be the one to do it.
