Is the one in LV not hemorrhaging money?

Ohhhh, sorry this sounded like random nonsense sometimes see from greentext accounts. Why wasn't this covered more, is that maybe not her real account?

Hold up. I figured there was some kind of scandal behind his departure, but this sounds a bit far-fetched

Come on man, we're all on the AI hype train now. Get with the program, you're one bubble behind!

Oh damn, I still have my original Half Life CD key committed to memory. I wonder if that still works.

The point of the tweet is slightly different from what you're making though. Your comparison would be valid if the artificial diamonds were somehow cheaper-looking while otherwise performing as good if not better than natural diamonds

Aer Lingus would be unchanged, unless they also added a case to handle that.

I meant that Linux is basically a first-class citizen across Azure. I don't know what powers all of Azure, and I'd be surprised if it was Windows across the board. Probably a combination of both, really, I imagine they're q

I suspect that those working on Windows are a different department entirely from those who handle Azure stuff. So while they're maybe encouraged to use Windows, they tend to favour what works best for them - which in many cases is Li

Yep, I know. But my gripe was someone suggesting MISRA C was something it wasn’t.

by smcl 3y ago
I'm sorry, but you've clearly just skimmed this and haven't worked with, nor understood, the purpose of MISRA C. For starters, unless it's changed substantially since I worked with it, MISRA C forbids use of functions li

If you want to have that discussion, feel free to find the people who think the existence of 1 (one) male character indicates sexism, like the GP described, and discuss it with them. Tbh it sounds more like you want to use the GP's hyp

Yeah I’ve seen that a few people get very upset over one reviewers’ subjective take on a game to the extent that they’ll hound them online. James Stephanie Sterling’s 7/10 on Tears of the Kingdom springs to mind (though they seem to be

This is a pretty hyperbolic take on games reviewers, other than the paid reviews which does exist but is pretty easy to identify and ignore. I've seen games being criticised for being too hard but even Elden Ring, Lies of P et al are

Man I'm sorry but this is incoherent.

The email exchange where his dad grumbles about how he's getting only $200k/yr (for doing nothing) and then CCs his mum for comment was quite amusing :)

Additionally he was perfectly capable of speaking normally when it was his team questioning him.

The way he was completely charmed by SBF was really quite surprising.

Even if they do something locale-specific, Microsoft has a knack for fucking specifically dates up. For me Windows keeps falling back to using the backwards US way even though I keep correcting it to use the international way. I think this

I think it was a joke :-)

Interesting how they render the date, there will be players in the UK who will see that and think they can use their controllers until the 11th of December. I don't know why they didn't just use "12th of November, 2023"

Fellow good accent, poor grammar haver (but in Czech) - hello! I agree completely. In fact we are not alone, here’s a video where a YouTuber is praised for his use of English (including contemporary idioms etc) in comparison to someone who

It’s a pretty fair assumption, I think. It’d be a really unusual if they kept buying laptops and somehow continued using all or some of them at the same rate.

No, you don't understand. SSDs begin to encounter problems over time after some number of read/write cycles. This is entirely expected and when one sector has issues it gets remapped to one of some spares that are built into the d

If you're replacing your laptop every 1.5 years then you're probably not likely to encounter any part failing.

Ahhh yeah the beer with the ostrich logo :D I have a real soft spot for it.

I'm gonna try to explain this because I thought the same thing, though you may enjoy it for another reason. Among Czech or other slavic software people - "jiná AI" could be like "another AI" and, to me at least, bri

Ahhh interesting, I didn't know it was an entirely separate, single letter! I was in Amsterdam a few weeks back and saw a lot of signage featuring "ij" had it stylised with the "i" sitting just above the tail of the

You're saying this like it was some deliberately hostile, colonial move to impose ASCII on the world. But I don't think it was quite like that, more that in the beginnings of computing people designed and built things for themselv
