how do you convince someone that bitter coffee is not good coffee?

That’s the neat part; you don’t.

Actually yeah. i’ll guarantee that was it. 14 days ago I was making fun of hexbear users defending russia’s war crimes in the memes /c/ of all places… which is weird that they defend it considering russia is very not-communist anymore.

still sucks since many of the largest communities around things like linux and tech are on .ml

Instead let’s stay here till 2:30a playing dumb video game, become sleep deprived, and hate my entire existence in the morning even more than I already did

Turns out the secret to gaining interest from women is… checks notes good diet, getting fit and healthy, having a consistent tastful style, eand being well read in an interesting hobby.

Never would have fu-cking guessed.

Sounded like you’ll be lucky to get it running even on a normal Windows rig let alone via proton lol. Paradox doing Paradox things

Aside from hard science and engineering degrees where the technical knowledge is a foundation for what you’ll learn in industry, a college degree is simply a piece of paper that says “I received a balanced education and have my life together enough to focus, manage time, and complete tasks reliably for 4 years straight.” Rarely do you ever use most of the knowledge you gained in college besides the aforementioned life management skills.

I’m sorry to tell you this, but, uh… they weren’t in quarantine.

Well just don’t ask a Pentium processor for it either…

Y’all need more fiber in ya life

Outside of the hard sciences where youre there to learn necessary specific foundational knowledge and technical stuff - mech/elec/civil engineering, high level medical, etc - it really doesn’t. The degree is proof that you can put your head down and manage yourself well enough to survive in the white collar world.

this just in: actually spending money on QA allows you to put out a higher quality product

What in the manufactured persecution fetish is this bullshit? Where’s the meme?

Depends where you live. Areas with a smaller craft brew scene do end up with the “nothing but IPA” problem. But where I live in the PNW there’s simply so damn many that even with 50% of them being IPA’s, you still get a huge selection of other pilsners, stouts, amber ales, hefenweizens… its pretty nice.

Some prude edited the word ‘sex’ out of the meme. Lame.

2GB of memory is fine for openWRT. Routing is surprisingly light tbh, consider that most all home/SOHO routers run integrated SoC’s with <256MB of memory.

routing speed is more dependent on CPU +cache speed

i’d eat my boot if a residential ISP let you run your own SFP fiber module. they have to pretty tighttly control those things to keep signal levels right and have wavelengths in the right spots. plus they’ll need to upstream reconfigure it somewhat frequently as the local network changes and if it’s not their hardware, they’ll get mad.

Honestly, its gotta be the MS Office suite.

Yes if you’re just writing your own simple documents libreoffice/OpenOffice will work, but if you have to do anything more complex than a single page spreadsheet, text-on-white presentations, or 3 page MLA book reports… or, even worse, have to interact with documents and spreadsheets created by basically any other person on the planet, I’ve just never had a good consistent experience with any of the free options.

Also that construction worker: has bad back, bad knees, arthritic hands and skin cancer at age 42

Don’t get me wrong the trades are amazing for a kid to get into right out of school, and they’re critically necessary. But don’t be expecting to make a lifelong career out of it, because it is absolutely hard on your body. Do it for 5 years max and move up to management.

Hmm.

I do quite a bit of parametric modelling and I see how something like this could be made. Find the angles of the sun at specific times, project planes at a fixed distance and angle matching around your cylinder, sketch the time number you want on each plane with a fixed pitch and then project-cut back through the cylinder. Would be a pain in the ass though. And a pretty tough 3d print without soluble supports, given all those tiny tiny interior walls and cavities.

welp, we’ve reached and then blown past that

time to pony up boy

I feel as if somehow claiming ownership of user content in the EULA in a way that would be DMCA enforceable would also be antithetical to the tenets of open source software.
