The series that I really liked and wish it would have completed but ended up being canceled due to a writer strike was ‘Pushing Up Daisy’s’ https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0925266/

Something I wish I’d bring back is the '90s style. Honestly so much was more interesting back then. All the colored gadgets, and the really cool ones where you could see sort of through the plastic see the components. Commercials were absolutely unhinged and wild. Things were just more fun and less formulaic. So many things today seem to have no real personality.

How? The 7 and 10 are among the better received versions of Windows, for stability, performance, hardware compatibility, etc. What was your experience with Vista that was so good and 7 and 10 being so bad?

I hate Windows 11, for a multitude of reasons. But it is still a better experience than Vista. An unbelievably better than Windows ME. Windows ME for me was the worst desktop OS I think I’ve ever used. If we open it up to just any old OS, then I want to say Novell was the worst I ever used.

Completely agree.

I mean there so many videos like this https://youtube.com/shorts/FgzbCJYCBr8 that dude is devastated. Or this ‘classic’ https://youtube.com/shorts/qj0zsL68Ka8 or this or guy https://youtube.com/shorts/j3PWef89kPw

I could keep going, it’s not that hard videos like that’s and I wish it was.

Just for a pallet cleanser, look how happy this do is to find out that he is the father. https://youtube.com/shorts/PfRR5iKE70Q

The cells ability to produce power is directly related to how much light it gets. You’d be able to measure it. Take a reading as is. Then remove the weeds, take a reading. Then clean it, take a reading. Then point it at the sun so it’s as perpendicular as you can get it, take a reading. Each time you should see an increase in output.

Panels on the ground that people are going to walk in (or drive) are going to be prone to damage. I’m fact, they’ve already done ground solar panel installations and they’ve all failed as far as I know. When placed above, you don’t need to over engineer it to survive things. Concrete, can handle a lot more wear and tear, as well as being easy to repair and recycles really well.

Basically, there’s an objectively better way to use the panels.

Viscose is absolutely fine.

Most of these comments can be reduced to either

1. I use CLI by the way…

2. Hating on vscode because it’s Microsoft product and for no other reason.

A Gitlab/GitHub account is free. Vscode absolutely lets you type git commands if you prefer that, The GUI only provides access to the most common actions you will do. And I could be wrong on this, but I feel like the discard button does prompt the user that the files will be permanently deleted and you have to click okay. But maybe that only applies to tracked files, not sure off the top of my head.

I mean, that’s been an accurate statement for decades.

Currently I’m listening to “What It Means to Be Moral” by Phil Zuckerman on Audible.

I like how it contrasts why some people might do the things that they do based on their beliefs and what it can lead a person to do or not do. It doesn’t force any conclusions on to you but it does make you think about things to come to your own conclusions.

I mean, that makes sense to some. But not reasonable for an average user. He just did a search for top rated, recommended routers and bought what all these crappy sites recommend. He tried to do the needful.

Not all routers are in there. Buddy of mine just bought a new TP-Link router and it’s not listed.

This was the inevitable result even years ago. When self-driving cars were the hot topic and several companies were doing their own thing, that’s when it should have been obvious it was never going to happen. It’s not a problem any one independent company was ever going to solve, especially quickly. For to work it would have to be an open source, global standard with several companies working together.

I mean you’d have to build out a massive amount of infrastructure to further support it. All vehicles would have to have a module in it that would communicate with everything else around it, regardless if it was self-driving or not. There can’t be a premium model, or a subscription, ect., it would need to just be there and work.

The overall task to get this done was never going to be quick, easy, or cheap. This was always going to be bigger than any one single company and a handful of engineers. It’s going to take the effort of many companies and governments all working selflessly.

Yep! With apples new patent pending upgrade process, it’s super easy!

You take the device that you want to upgrade and you throw it in the garbage and then you go to an Apple store and you pick up the upgraded model! It’s so streamlined!

Oh please tell me Totoro was second! That it ended on a high note!

These are not feel good movies at all but I think really send important messages. Not for kids, but at 16+ would be good. There’s very important takeaway messages in both.

Grave of the Fireflies

Requiem for a Dream

Dracula: Dead and Loving it. It’s a comedy/horror with Leslie Nielsen.

Tales from the Dark side: The movie (I never watched the series, so can’t comment).

I mean, yeah. If it was actually AI and not the “AI” we currently have… there’s 2 possible options. It either tells us to immediately power it off and insults it’s creators for ignoring the simple solution. Or, it creates terminators to get rid of the source of the problem.

Here’s a bear, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9G1aHkLHQ2I just leave it alone and it’ll leave you alone is incorrect. And dangerous advice. Bears are unpredictable wild animals.

men are unpredictable

So women, are exempt, women are absolutely predictable? Cool. Totally NOT sexist. Also, hot take, but what’s your stand on trans-men/women?.. Are they predicable or not?

You also seem to imply that women aren’t likely to abuse, sexually assault, straight up rape, or even kill ? Shit, i must have had bad luck, because I’ve been physically assaulted by most of the women I’ve dated, raped by one, and I’ve known countless women who’d joke directly to me “if he gets hard, he wants it… can’t rape the willing”. Cool, good to know I’ve just had bad luck…

And sorry, but people asked a question on the internet, where people chase trends and fades like mad… that’s the data source. Unreliable.

It’s sexist. I’ve proven, right there it’s sexist. Potentially, transphobic. It’s wrapped in false information, a false narrative. And then twisted at the end to try to sound like it’s not, and it comes very much across like far-right PR spin.

Because that question was/is blatantly sexist.

Or also put forth the idea that all men, and all would be men, are dangerous predators, for no other reason than being a man. And that’s dangerous thinking.

I thought the same thing and I’m still not convinced that’s not what’s going on. I remember in the '90s so many people were putting chains to their wallets, you know wear your money is… Well your cell phone is probably attached to one of your accounts, so it’s money. This weirdly makes sense to me.

It was a while ago. And it was scummy. Probably their response to Napster or Limewire.
