The problem with wsl is that its a window like a small island extending 1000m into the air, and the moment you step off... Splat, you're back in Windows with the registry and such. I bought a surface a few weeks back - wsl is nothing

I've never seen anyone's banning get cheered. On the contrary, I see the locked account person get cheers and welcomes back when they return, elevated as a hero, comradery strengthened, usually on a different account, abandoning

Have you used windows recently? It sounds like you have. I installed it last week for the first time in ten-ish years - afraid I have to describe it as disgusting and completely undoing all the supposedly open work pr they've been g

Every time there's a scandal and you don't delete your Facebook account, you're telling them that you're fine with that behaviour and that they're welcome to abuse you further. They'll keep pushing, whittling

It's not acceptable. I've moved from a dev background to having a go at sre/devops/something-or-other; work aside, the culture is excrutiating, with people shouting across the office all day. Best case, someone talking

Different experience here. I did one dive. Nice view from up there. Not very exciting. Falling out of the plane was good fun, felt a bit nuts. The fall was very pleasant. Opening the chute was fun. The canopy ride was boring and unc

I'm afraid this just isn't reality, voting down won't change that. SA is backward but it's not that backward. It has e-commerce, you can buy things online. It's had the web since the mid 90s. Eg first search atte
