- Comment on Microsoft's decision to axe Windows 10 is driving Apple PC sales growth — users buy Macs instead of AI PCs despite Microsoft’s push for Copilot+ PCs 11 hours ago:
Over a decade in and I haven’t internalized the text selection and cursor movement differences TBH. You can rebind the system key combos though if it really bothers you that much. I’m just not really using the keyboard as much anymore now that I use a trackpad for everything.

The very first thing I did was swap around ctrl and cmd on my mechanical keyboard.

It’s really sad that it’s the only major operating system that functions on API calls for UI elements. Part of what makes windows awful is the terrible UI inconsistencies between apps. 3rd party app can’t hook into the system or each other easily because there are so few shared APIs. It’s crazy that macOS has the best utility apps all because of the shared API library and that the other operating systems don’t want to copy or unify with them.

Québécois sweats are literally church vocabulary words. You could probably just use any church vocabulary in place of the common ones and I’d understand what you meant.

Don’t give me away so easily you cocksucka

Yes.

Can switch emulators emulate switch 2 titles?

Red Dead 2
- Comment on Is airtags really useful? 1 week ago:
They’re the shit. I have a one on my bicycle and one on my keychain. 10/10 would buy again.
- Comment on If sexuality is a spectrum, does that mean one person is the gayest? 4 weeks ago:
I think sex acts are within your sexuality, not the other way around.
- Comment on If sexuality is a spectrum, does that mean one person is the gayest? 4 weeks ago:
Probably not when you consider that there is probably a break point in there. Being super gay just means you’d under no circumstances have sex with the opposite sex, no?
- Comment on New Arizona law to restrict online porn access; Pornhub will block state 5 weeks ago:
She’s a slim margin democrat governor. She might be calculating that placating this may end up better than letting the state house overrule her with something worse. Many here are also prudes, unfortunately.

Fellow Tucson here, who were they?
- Comment on How often do guys have a haircut? 5 weeks ago:
I grew my hair down to my ass until it stopped growing around 25. I would’ve kept it longer, but I balded lol.
- Comment on How often do guys have a haircut? 5 weeks ago:
2-3 weeks? By 5 weeks I look a little scraggly (I’m balding, so it’s not great to let it go too long, unless I’m dressing as a mad scientist for something)
- Comment on Campaigners urge EU to mandate 15 years of OS updates 5 weeks ago:
Dude, I’m so ready. Linux supports processors that old, by enthusiasts for free.
- Comment on Are Cars Just Becoming Giant Smartphones on Wheels? 5 weeks ago:
I’m gonna be honest, I want my car to be an iPad on wheels. 120fps, buttery smooth animations, 3000nit brightness 19” vertical panel with CarPlay Ultra.
However, I’d be totally satisfied with the Slate truck model that has an app on a tablet that hooks directly into the truck. That’d be honestly more ideal.
- Comment on Not trying to disparage first responders on 911. Why aren't nurses included with fire and police departments? Did we not take care of people on the backend of the rescuing? 1 month ago:
They’re the roadies at the music festival. Everyone forgets they’re the ones who make it all possible.
- Comment on For people who relocated: when did you realize you want to live in the new place long-term & why? 1 month ago:
I grew up in the Boston area and absolutely hated the cold weather. I moved out when I was 18 to go to college in the Southwest. I literally only applied to warm weather colleges.
- Comment on The Job Market Is HellYoung people are using ChatGPT to write their applications; HR is using AI to read them; no one is getting hired. 1 month ago:
It’s not about taking the away way out though; anyone can write that cover letter. You can’t fake the interview, so that’s what has always mattered to me.
- Comment on The Job Market Is HellYoung people are using ChatGPT to write their applications; HR is using AI to read them; no one is getting hired. 1 month ago:
I’ve used chatGPT for tens of applications at this point. Cover letters were always fucking useless, and when I was hiring,I never read them.

I completely stopped watching him after the GPU fiasco. I always thought he might be super slimy, but I think I can reasonably say that he is.

- Comment on Goodbye, $165,000 Tech Jobs. Student Coders Seek Work at Chipotle. 2 months ago:
This data to me didn’t show much in the way of by-field statistics. If we’re comparing software development pay at the naîssance of the field to today, it should be complicated to do so. I’d expect to look at top 5% at the very least because of how new and niche computing and coding in general was in the 90s.
- Comment on What is the magic diet for no-wipe poops? 2 months ago:
Many things increase gut motility. Barbiturates are a famous example of the opposite effect.
- Comment on What is the magic diet for no-wipe poops? 2 months ago:
Basically this. Increased gut motility from inflammation reduces the time spent extracting water from your stool, which is exactly counterproductive to the OP’s question.
