I mean, you’re not going to use all of them at once. Maybe you have your everyday carry pistol, and a few more pistols that you like to shoot. Maybe you have a few rifles dedicated to hunting for the family. Maybe you have a few rifles that you shoot at the range for fun. Maybe a machine gun or two just to have one.

Hang on, that’s still less than 20.

Maybe he collects them?

Is EAAC similar to EAC where we’ll need a specifically compiled glibc?

What’s a token ring?

Also I’m pretty sure I still have a box of 3.5” they can have lol

Do they expect someone to work at cost for them? Running a company has overhead.

It sounds like they know what the code should do generally, but either didn’t design it to be debuggable or have no idea what they are doing.

Everyone has their own way of doing things and when you commit you need to make sure you deliver a quality product.

Bug hunting sucks, especially with other people’s design.

Sorry I’m out of the country so I heard about it yesterday on lemmy. With big organizations, it’s possible that like the district or region leader didn’t think it’d be a big deal and didn’t pass it on. Or hell, maybe one of them is a trumper and let it go. When corporate found out from the news they tried to do a PR cleanup. Could also have been slow then.

Sorry, I meant corporate

Why is it too bad so sad too late?

The franchisee probably didn’t contact McDonalds before allowing Trump in.

They probably found out the same way everyone else did — the news. Someone had to pass it up high enough and then they issued an inter memo (which they may have gotten before the news) and then the president wrote a letter.

Timing seems okay for me

Ugh. That sounds like government/corporate inefficiency. “Our budget/quota will be reduced if we do not spend the full budget/quota this fiscal year, so let’s purchase new workstations for the team”

Nah fam.

Years ago it was “Don’t be evil”. Now it’s “Dont be evil™(1)(2)”

(1) it is okay to be evil if the profit would be outrageous (2) if it’s questionable, we ignore the evaluation to see how much profit it generates first

Modems can still make noise. As recently as five years ago I still had to work with modems. A lot of them now have silent mode though

You come from a nice family. My family disconnected each other all the time

I don’t believe that you don’t believe me

I don’t believe you

What? They didn’t sign the treaty. The treaty was between the PRC and the UK. HK didn’t sign….

Musk and “FSD is coming next year” is like Trump and “I only want to be dictator for a day”.

HK has been politically part of PRC since, what, 97? It is not moving closer to China at this point. After Beijing installed a puppet, it became a definitive part of PRC. Hell, they are arresting news organizations. The UK held up their end of the deal, and PRC isn’t following through on theirs

I’m confused. You don’t know that the sun will rise tomorrow - you believe it will. Science is our best guess at how the universe around us works. Geocentric was how we believed the universe worked until that theory was proven to be wrong.

You know the current theory, and based on that knowledge you can believe it will rise. There could be some phenomenon that will turn the sun dark for 7 days that is not part of the current model. It’s unlikely, but possible.

Knowledge is the understanding of that which will not change. Yes, you can modify the theory tomorrow but it will not be the same theory as today. That’s why it’s knowable

I hate this phrasing. It’s not stacking the court. It’s fixing perceived political bias in the court back to neutral where it belongs.

What do you mean by that? Corporations are people too! And, as you should know:

All people are equal, but some people are more equal than others.

I only joke about Arch being the superior distro because, well, I use it and because it’s apparently a thing.

I actually don’t have any strong feelings about Ubuntu. It’s a distro. It works. I only use Arch because of the AUR (I’m lazy, okay?). I don’t have strong feelings about it either. Linux is configurable to basically exactly what you want. Once (or if) you get into customization you just pick the distro that allows you to get to what you want faster.

I do have strong feelings about Windows though.
