Me: History is so old.

History: UR old.

“Do no harm to the stockholders” would be the contemporary take.

Hot damn! Limitless fusion power is only thirty years away!

It’s done by overriding the document.onrightclick and the selection start something function in the browser. Reset it and you’re done.

I know this because of a manufacturers website that does this. So incredibly annoying when the only reason anybody would want to copy from their webbo is for reference of their own products. In my case the product numbers to search for where to buy it.

Change your password. Change all your important passwords.

Yeah, it’s a joke. The white ones are missing the top layer it seems.

I remember nurses in white and doctors with a mirror on a headband when I was a kid in the 70s.

Indeed I could, but this is the boring job you have the paid employees for rather than putting it on users to ensure a stable version of your product. .

Yeah, it’s totally a fun feature driven project reliant on community efforts despite there is a commercial venture behind it nowadays. The core devs still treat it as their baby hobby project and nobody wants to do the boring job of maintaining a stable branch so it’s not going to happen.

Some while ago I saw another discussion on this topic that was shot down with the opposing arguments that all users have to do is stay up date with the latest version, while also saying that users are at fault for things breaking because they update when a notification tells them that there is a new latest version.

I think it’s arrogant and irresponsible and a ticking time bomb for a big time bug or zero day exploit and not how any serious project should be administered.

I wish I could have Linus Torvalds give his colorful opinion on this mindset on developing the operating system for peoples homes.

Every time I read of issues like this, I so much wish ha devs could be bothered to complement the rolling release as it is today with a quarterly “stable” branch that gets all the bug fixes and patches but none of the monthly new features.

The stable branch could lag 3 months in features, it doesn’t matter with latest features when all you want is a recently patched and updated system that runs your house without going bzzpth.

Yeah, the Bikini Atoll was a testing ground for nukes, but that’s not the reason they are strangely hollow outlines of islands.

As far as I understand it, it’s because there were islands formed from underwater volcanic eruptions, but over time the inner islands sunk and eroded away and what makes up the island today are actually the surfaced parts of the once surrounding coral reef.

It’s only there to make the other ones look cheap.

Because december is consumerism celebration burn all the money month and January is poor af.

You know how social media copy each other?

Meta has dived in head first to beat X.

Because some people are desperate to feel superior, clinging to what distro they use when they have nothing else.

The mods will by then be replaced with bots that remove every new question by default because it was probably answered like 65 years ago and if not it’s not a good question.

Try to control some other devices, like your television, to determine if your transmitter is working.

“The government” is the abstract bogey man that can do anything, huh?

If you want some real conspiracy, take a look at multinational mega corporations and how they create an illusion of choice that ends up as revenue for their owners, controlling prices while avoiding taxes and livable wages for their workers and buying politicians around the globe.

But nooo that’s too real and scary and depressing when it’s much more exciting to fantasize about secret technology and aliens and whatever.

I eat a lot of paracetamol because longtime unwell. Would NAC benefit my liver from the hit it takes from paracetamol?

Sublime Text 2, for which I have a licence. I'd upgraded to 3 but not for a subscription model.
