Wouldn’t matter if they’re never in there anyway

One of my old coworkers at a previous job, I forget the exact context, but when he was asked to do something:

“Hey [Name], can you get this done?”

“Can the Pope’s dick fit through a donut?”

“… I don’t know?”

“Exactly 😎 👉 👉”

We’re reaching heretofore unheard of levels of abstraction sir, perhaps we should abort.

So this fine is being paid to… The French government?

Look, I’m all for trying to punish the corporation for bad practices, but that money should be distributed to the people impacted by those practices, i.e. Joycon owners. Not disappear into the pockets of a regulatory board who had largely nothing to do with this situation and just sees an easy opportunity to profit.

Then you did not speak with programmers regularly, I learned this term probably back in 2008ish

5-10 years ago, you could be pretty sure this was a thing that actually needed checked, since the post about the clutch safety switch was posted by a real person who presumably had the same problem as you and fixed it with this method.

Now, there’s no way to know if that’s actually the case, or if “clutch safety switch” is just a likely string of words to feed someone who is having car trouble. You might get lucky, or you might get sent on eight consecutive goose chases because an LLM fundamentally doesn’t know what factual knowledge is, it only knows how to reorder and regurgitate things that other people have said in other contexts.

GI,GO only matters if people actually stop buying your garbage. It’s becoming pretty overwhelmingly obvious that most people are going to continue buying the garbage no matter how garbage it is, therefore, this is technically cost effective.

Tumbleweed is a wind melon

Canada has the opportunity to do something very funny

Guns? Actually just throwing rocks at high speed.

Nuclear bomb? Throwing a special, spicy rock.

It really is just rock chucking all the way down, projectile combat completely broke the meta

I literally cannot count the number of times I’ve had to dick around with Windows’ command line to make something work. Not to mention registry editing.

Greater than 90% of all Linux software I’ve ever installed has also been as simple as “just install the thing and click Run”. Building a project from source is different, I still struggle with that (anybody want to help me build Ardour?) but that’s a fairly rare necessity, at least for me.

There’s a good reason we’ve had alcohol for almost as long as we’ve had civilization, and I think you hit on some key points of it here. It’s a social lubricant, many important meetings and decisions of history might not have happened without a little drink to loosen some tongues.

That’s not to say that it’s good for you, but alcohol has been present alongside human evolution in sort of the same way that dogs have. We go waaayyyyyy way back together.

Honestly might be an even harder flex than just being the only Caesar

This, but unironically

Eh, I deleted the comment cause I felt I was being an ass about something I didn’t know a lot about. That’s fair.

Still though, I struggle to understand how “rip out everything and replace it with a different system” is more cost effective than “just put a transponder in the damn truck”. You say this was probably a cost cutting measure - you expect the people that cut that cost to now leap at the chance to overhaul their entire tracking system?

I don’t think that’s the right spot for either of them tbh, I’d say Fables should be a lot further left over the “mainstream” line and Rock should be several steps further up and right
