The skull is real ivory.

Additionally, "Mass deportation" is a fucking genocide, I don't know how this can even be said loudly. Guess people never learn...

How did you do that please?

And heh, no cut, dummy. They get extorted. Netflix wouldn't agree to allow the hi-res streaming to their devices otherwise.

What's the original picture there? I want to see the little guy's face!

They could pair that with sensors / cameras for hanging things. These are already being produced and installed on tracks.

But pretty median number of them.

This is an already solved problem - EU did it in the past.

You're right. This is just "SaaS", "cloud APIs" approach turned to 11 - making some thing unavailable to everyone unless they agree to agree with any conditions you come up in the future. For example, if Github Copilot becomes genuinely and uniquely very useful, that's bad for the software development industry over the entire world: it means that every single software dev company will have to pay "tax" to Microsoft.

How the fuck can people continue using the word "defense" to describe this?

These writeups never managed to to convince me me that I should not be able to modify any file on my device. If the system is not able to grant this access to me, and me only, while doing it securely, than it's bad operating system, designed without my interests first on mind. I am absolutely sure that granting so-called "root access" can be done securely, as decades of almost-every-other-OS have shown.

There's a horror movie about a couple harrased by kids during the stay at the lake. Might be right up your alley!

Aaa, the one temporarily featuring Hitler toaster ;)

 

update: this is the clip: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=AbSehcT19u0 Many thanks to @Krill.

Good day everyone! A long time ago, while working as a full-time programmer, I saw a short funny clip that I could totally identify with and that brilliantly described what daily frustrations programmes face in a way that non-programmers could understand. Description below. Thing is, I was unable to find it since and it frustrates me to no end and is hampering my ability to describe programming work to other people. Though I no longer program for a living, so I should not care. Anyway.

Video description (vague, from failing memory): A handyman reaches for his equipment but finds out it is not plugged in, so he reaches for the plug, only to find it broken. He proceeds to get the replacement / fix from the drawer but its handle breaks and stays in his hand. Bang, final title: the daily life of a programmer.

Or something like that. Please help.
